Flection Hay, Nov. 3.
The Cuban war Is costing this coun
try easily $l'3.00,000 a year. Is Spain's
sullen amity worth this sacrifice?
Why Stifle Competition ?
One of thB arguments employed
among councllmen by the agents of the
Bcranton Traction company In their ef
fort to defeat the ordinance giving fran
chise rights to the Citizens' Traction
company Is that If the new street rail
way system shall be permitted to have
competitive rights the Scranton Trac
tion company will cease to earn its In
terest charges and those who hold Us
securities will thereby sustain loss. The
thinness of such argument does not re
quire much demonstration.
Most of the money Invested in the
Scranton Traction company belongs to
outsiders. A very small percentage of
Its securities Is held In this city. But
If all its securities were held here, would
that entitle It to n monopoly of the
city's streets? Has It paid anything to
the city for such a monopoly? Does its
franchise contain any clause protecting
It against competition? Competition is
the rule In private business circles.
Every' merchant In Scranton has to en
dure it. No merchant has yet asked
councils to give him exclusive rights in
his line of business. Such a proposition
would be hooted out of councils. Yet
the foreign-owned Scranton Traction
company, which has for years been a
source of public complaint because of
its Insutllclent service and because ot
Its poor equipment, now asks councils
to keep it in a monopoly of franchise
rights for which it makes no payment
save a small pole-tax. It acts the dog-in-the-manger
role, being able to oc
cupy only a portion of our streets and
unwilling that any othtr company shall
- have what It ties up. It has even, in
one instance, offered to give a bond of
assurance to certain property owners
that it would never attempt to occupy
a certain streetrfor which it obtained a
franchise. We refer to the extension oj
l.imlell street.
The offer made by the new company is
fulr and square. The, city can lose noth
ing by accepting Itanil if the company
curries out its agreements, th city will
greatly gain. Tile new company offers
to give a bond that its road will be in
operation within two years after the
slKning of the ordinance. If It does not
fulfill this promise, it will foifeit both
franchluc and bond. Hon-, tnVn. can
tho city lost? On the contrary, even if
the road should never matcrlalisse, thu'
city would l.u ahead the amount of the
bond. This offer, thonjrh, Is bona fide.
Hnd It remains to bo Been If those Scran
tonlans who have been pretending to
want a better Hired car Hervice than
Hie one now afforded by the SVranton
Traction company are In earnest. This
13 their uhance to demonstrate to coun
cils the existence of such a thing as
liubllo (sentiment.
Speaker Heed explains his poor suc
cess as a presidential candidate by nay
ir.tr he "Is no politician." And yet
Quay, the best politician livlng.ls Reed's
companion In sorrow. Tho speaker will
have to guess again.
The Bonding Privilege.
It Is sincerely to be regretted that the
present session of congress Is likely to
come to an adjournment without taking
steps to abrogate the bonding privilege
under which the heavily subsidized rail
ways of Canada havo been enabled or
years to rob American railways of traf
fic properly belonging to the latter. But
tho sentiment for the abrogation of this
privilege will continue Its fight, and) it Is
believed that relief will yet be achieved.
Some interesting figures bearing upon
tho Injustice of the bonding privilege in
its operation upon American transpor
tation Interests have recently been
made public by Francis Wayland Glen.
For the years 1893, J804 and 1895 It ap
pears that no less than 1,310,852 cars,
containing 24,663,329 tons of merchan
dise, were diverted from. American- ,to
Canadian railways under the bonding
'regulation. Siv. Olen shows that If the
loss In earnings to American railways,
was only 1216 rents per ldt) pounds, the
. total loss for three years by reason of
. tho bonding; privilege was $60,158,322.
For the decade ot 1890-1900, if the prlv-
llge shall remain in force, he estimate
that the loss will exceed J2v0.000.000.
"It will be seen from these state
ments," adds Mr. Olen. "that the abro
gation of the bonding regulations would
add at least 120,000.000 to the earnings
of American railways annually and re
store their dividend earning power and
leave Canada and Great Britain to
maintain the railways of Canada, or let
them pass into the hands of receivers
as our own Unas have been compelled to
do. At the present time we are forcing
American railways, built by private
capital, Into bankruptcy and permitting
roads very heavily subsidised by Cana
da and Great Britain to divert traffic
from them which they have creuted.
Shall we-cont!nue to build up Canadian
communities at the expense of our own?
We could add very much to the value
of Canadian shipping If we opened our
coasting trade upon the svueouat and
upon the lakes to Canadian vessels.
Why not play Into the hands of our
greatest commercial rival and do It?
Why not open our markets free to Brit
ish manufacturers and raise all our rev
enue from Internal taxation? Why pro
tect our manufacturers and shipowners
and permit our railways to be robbed of
20,000.000 annually ot legitimate earn
ings?" These arguments are unanswerable
from the American standpoint, and It
is only a queslon of time until the con
gress of the United States will be moved
by their strength to undo the mischiev
ous law. which gives to Canadians the
right to enter bonded cars of freight up
on American territory In transit from
Canadian to British American termin
als or vice versa flee of duty.
An example of the smallness of the
present chief executive was recently
shown when, In Inviting a delegation of
the senate foreign affairs committee to
the white house for a conference with
reference to Cuba, he passed by Senator
Morgan, the senior Democrat on that
committee and Its ex-chalrman. 1hls
was a deliberate violation of ttllclal
etiquette as well as a snub to Mie ablest
Democrat In the senate. Mt Morgan's
fault was In refusing to. play the syco
phant before a man nt fit, mentally, to
lace his shoes. .''
Electricity for All.
If all that has been said In behalf of
a recent discovery by Dr. William W.
Jacques, of Boston, be true, applied
science Is Hearing another important
contribution to the conveniences of
mankind. Dr. Jacques Is an electrician
who has for years been seeking to con
vert the potential energy of carbon Into
electrical energy, without recourse to
steam; It is now claimed that he has
solved this long-puzzling enigma, and a
company has been formed with a capi
tal of 5,000,000 to develop his process
commercially.
Under present systems of converting
the potential energy of carbon into elec
trical energy there Is a waste of from
!)0 to 95 per cent. In other words, of the
potential energy of the coal which is
passed into the furnace at the power
house, not more than 10 per cent,
reaches the motor of the trolley car as
an effective propulsive force, and only
5 per cent, finds luminous manifestation
in the Incandescent lamp. Under the
system devised by Dr. Jacques, a tre
mendous economy Is promised in the
cost of generating the electrical current,
while the simultaneous Investigations
of Edison and Tesla hold out an equal
promise of economy In the current's
utilization.
This Is the Jacques process, described
in simple language.. Into an Iron pot Is
put a quantity of caustic soda, which Is
fused. A stick of carbon Is then insert
ed into the fused caustic soda, and, later,
an Iron tube. Through the tube air Is
forcAl Into the compound. Some of the
air bubbles up, but some of it Is brought
Into contact with the curbon, where
upon oxidisation ensues. The Iron pot
Is thereupon connected with one wire
end the stick of carbon with another,
n:id thus a powerful electric current Is
established. The important part of the
process Is Dr. Jacques' claim that the
electrolyte Itself is not in any manner
Impaired. It can, he declares, be used
without renewal indefinitely. T,he car
bon stick Is the only part of the appara
tus' which lias to be renewed.
In speaking of this new process the
Rochester Democrat and Chronicle
says: "It Is very plain that success de
pends upon the alleged fact that the
electrolyte does not decompose, but is
always ready for business, so long as
the supply of air and carbon ,1s kept up.
Air Is plentiful and me culm or waste
heaps of the Lackawanna and Lehigh
valleys would furnish a practically in
exhaustible supply of carbonaceous
matter. If properly treated. All of the
premises being granted, it would ap
pear, therefore, that the days of the
dynamo may yet bo numbered." It
woutTl be prudent to await further de
velopments before venturing far Into
the realm of predictions-; but it is at
least safe to say that electricity will
soon be as lafgely in use in the home as
it now is In the factory and the shop.
Secretary Olney has taken early pains
to deny the story that he bad Informed
Spain that American neutrality toward
Cuba could not be much longer pre
served. Mr. Olney evidently dreads to
be suspected of harboring a feeling of
obedience to the manifest will of his
countrymen.
A number of the leading citizens of
Des Moines, la., have organized what is
known as an Emergency club, the pur
pose of which, as set forth in its consti
tution, is "to provide Immediate relief
ahd to unite In concerted action In the
events of tornadoes, cyclones, fire, floods,
railroad accidents or other serious
nmorffpnrlpii. nr whpn o-pnprnl ftpntriin.
tlou of property nas taken place." The
club Is divided into standing commit
tees on investigation, hospital, soliciting
of supplies, transportation, sewing and
finance, and It is expected that when
ever any great accident or casualty oc
curs within easy access rom Des
Moines, the club will be ready with im
mediate aid. It would be a good thing
If every city were to have Its Emergency
dub. Here Is a hint to the enterprising
philanthropists of Scranton.
The proposed establishment ot a local
bicycle manufactory la an enterprise de
serving of encouragement. Under pru
dent management it ought to score a big
success. The demand tor wheels In
Luzerne and Lackawanna counties Is
probably at the rate ot 10,000 a year. If
only one-tenth of this demand were
supplied by a home factory, the annual
profit of the latter would, at present
prices, pay 10 per cent. Interest on a
capitalization of a quarter of a million
dollars. There does not seem to be any
good reason why as satisfactory bi
cycles should not be made In Scranton
as In any other city In the United States.
We have the necessary unskilled labor,
the transportation facilities and the
cheap fuel; all that is needed is the
skilled labor and the capital, and these
ought soon to be forthcoming.
It is a circumstance of some signifi
cance that in the mass of comment
which has been elicited by the disbar
ment of Cornelius Smith, esq., while
there has been much sympathy for Mr.
Smith there has been no censure of the
court and no hint that the action of the
latter was not fully warranted by the
facts. It is gratlfylngly manifest that
the people are willing to defend the dig
nity of their courts of justice.
In addition to nominating McKlnley
and Reed and adopting a strong plat
form, the St. Louis convention ought to
do two other things of almost equal Im
portance. It ought to amend Its basis
of representation so as to put the power
of nomination Into the hands of dele
gates from the states that will have to
do the electing; and It ought by reso
lution to declare for short presidential
campaigns.
Tho safest and surest way to prevent
bond sales Is to provide the government
with an adequate protective tariff reve
nue. This the Republican party pro
poses to do at its earliest opportunity.
Of one fact the country can rest as
sured; whether It wants the gold stand
ard qr bimetallism It cannot afford to
trust its government again to tho
Democratic party.
Japan is to have two new warships
and they are to be built In the United
States. That is a kind of jingoism to
which Americans can unanimously sub
scribe. We agree with Rev. Dr. McLeod that
sacred concerts on Sunday are unobjec
tionable. It Is the abuses which go with
them that should be stopped.
EDlSOiNEWljaHT.
The new white light which Thomas A.
Edison has discovered has almost reached
perfection, so the Wizard of Orange In
forms u writer In the New York Pres,s.
"I have succeeded In solving the problem
of the light," said he. "The lamp is fin.
Ished. That Is the scientific part of the
work and solves the problem. The re
mainder is mechanical." The new light,
or "fluorescent lamp," as Edison has
named it, is. somewhat similar to the in
candescent lamp now used everywhere.
There is a glass globe, from which a part
of the ulr Inside has been extracted. There
is not so perfect a vacuum as the Incan
descent lamp. Unlike the electric lamp,
the whole globe glows with a pure white
light of marvelous illuminating power. The
light comes from a metallic crystal known
as "misstate." It Is a metal as heavy us
gold. The Germans have given It the
name "tungsteln," which, translated Into
English, means "heuvy stone." The Il
luminating property is due to a peculiar
attribute of the tungstate crystal Itself.
II II II
"The slightest rubbing of these crystal
will make them glow," said Mr. Edison
yesterday. "The new lamp- Is based on
this property of the crystal. I nave suc
ceeded In fusing these crystals into a
glass globe by heating the glass until it Is
soft enough to receive the tungstate crys
tals, which it holds firmly when It cools.
Pfound by experiment that I could get the
best light by fusing the crystals on tliu
inside of the globe. Two wires enter the
globe at one end, but do not meet. By
means of an Induction current generated
In a faradic battery, the molecules of the
wires are thrown into motion, and the im
pulse thus given travels aleng the wires
until it reaches the ends inserted Into the
globe. This molecular Impulse is commu
nicated to the molecules of air within the
globe. These air molecules are driven with
almost inconceivable rapidity against the
crystals of tungstate, welded into the in
ner wall of the glass. The Impact causes
the crystals to glow. The glow caused by
a single blow of these ulr molecules Is,
of course, but slight, but multiplied thou
sands of times, and the blows repeated
continuously at an enormously rapid rate,
they produce the, new white light.
"Every wire contains a latent electrical
force. These lines of force run In every
direction, but when an electrical Impulse
is Impurted to the wire, althougn it may
not devlop Into a current of electricity,
the lines of force are all turned In one dl
recticn. Thoy no longer run In all direc
tions, but are parallel to the long axis
of the wire. The wire is then ready to re
ceive a current. One molecule communi
cates Its movement to another until the
Initial Impulse given by the induced cur
rent travels along the entire length of
the wire, and is caught up by the air
molecules In the globe.
I! II il
"This." continued Mr. Edison, "Is easily
understood If a row of billiard balls h
used as an Illustration. If the balls arc
placed in a strnlght line, and each ball
In contact with Its rellow, and a diow is
struck at one end of the row, ell the balla
will remain unmoved except the ball nt
the extreme other end.. This ball will be
driven away at a considerable rate of
speed. The force-of the blow was received
by tho first ball and communicated to th3
nexV and so on, until It shot the last ball
away from the rest! This Is exactly whit
takes place in the globe and produces the
light. I wa9 surprised, however, to find
that with the Intense white light given
oft by tho tungstate there was no heat.
Tho incandescent lamp transforms 95 per
cent, of tho electrical force Into heat, and
only 5 per cent. Is turned Into light. Tnl"
Is a tremendous loss, from a commercial
point of view. With my new lamp I ab
solutely can discover no heat. I could
not believe It at first, and took the tem
perature with my most delicate Instru
ments. I could find no appreciable heat.
Not satisfied with this test and conclud
ing ' my Instruments were at fault, I
used other Instruments, but with the same
result, This test was repeated time and
again, until I am compelled to believe
that nearly tho whole force used In the
new lamp Is employed In producing the
light. I do not attempt to explain It; I
only accept It as a fact.
II II II
"I have gained a light to produce which
requires bom of the great sacrifices f
force. The high amount of electricity re
quired in the Incandescent lamp to over
come the tremendous loss of electrical en.
ergy. and which la turned into heat, is tut
needed here. This means an astounding
cheapness in lighting, and a consequent
commercial gain. The new lamp wtu laxt
as long as the globe laats. There are no
expensive Alms to consider. I get, besld..
a much better light. It Is a singular fact
that a two-candlo new light lamp, accord
ing to my photometer, gives out to the eye
almost twice the illuminating effect thut
a two-candle incamlescent lamp does. 1
can explain this only on the ground that
the light Is more pleasing to the eye
than the electric light. A two-candle
tungstate lamp will light a room as well us
lb-candle-power Incandescent lamp. It
is a pure white light, the whitest light
known. The tungstate crystals make the
globe look like ground glass. The whole
globe glows. The curvature of the globe
serves to intensify the light by deflecting
:he Hying molecules o air from one crystal
to another until the initial force Is ex
hausted. It Is thus the vibration of the
air molecules serves to produce light. 1
have been exiierlmentlng with a new sub
stance, which fluoresces better even than
tungstate. but I am not yet prepared 'o
say what the substance Is."
