affairs to feel concerned in the present
crisis, and it is sincerely hoped that the
grave prospect Of a return of the time
when we had streets dimly lit by lamps
that smoked to the extent where they
often shed no light whatever, and our
houses were lighted by k~erosine oil, will
not materlalize. The electric lighting
system in Christiansted has not been per
feet; like in many concerns in their
infancy, there has been room for i'm
prOVement In various features of our
electric hight establishment; but this is
true OF other undertakings operated
d more lucrative conditions permit
ting of constant efforts to perfect, and
it must be confessed that under any cir
cumstances il will be missed ii taken

interested IN her home comforts, or any
one who appreciates lac. Of drudRery

Municipal Committee SHOULD be given the
benefit Of rational Judgment, and while
criticism is mostly healthy, it should be
exercised g~uardedly until the object Of
censure has shown absolute occasion Tor
condemnation. II appears to US unlikely
that the chances Of losing tie electric
lighting system would be ieopardized
without due provision having been made.
