REPUBLICAN TIDAL WAVE, Such is the Republican tidal wave | that has swept over the Golden State, heretofore generally the doubtful column, in this beneficent year of grace. Washington and Oregon also are in the in 1 Republican line, and upon the whole | the Pacific Coast has given the splen- | did admoistration of President Me- | Kinley a most emphatic endorsement. | Even Nevada, the sagebrush state, has | been almost redeemed from the sway | of the free silver cranks. Arizono alone of the commonwealths in the far west | has disgraced herself, by turning down | the gallant Maj. Brodie of Roosevelt’s | : | Rough Riders, as delegate in congress, , by electing a free silver Democrat in- | stead. Benighted New Mexico did bet- ter than that, for even that Democratic elected a Republican dele- | gate. Arizona has high aspirations for statehood, but I am badly mistaken if her action in sending a Democrat to congress does not give her a setback for some years to come. The great surprise of the election in this state was the big Republican vote in San IFrancisco which was carried by the Republican candidate for governor about 3400 plurality, against the usual Democratic majority in that city of 5000 to 10,000. Fusion is a dead California, and unless the Republican oftice-hold- ers make some egregious blunders dar- ing their term of will be a long time before either Democrats or Populists will have a ghost of a show to feed once more in the public erib in issue in servitude, it these parts.

President Boswell, of the Merchant | Coal Company, has made what we con- sider an exceedingly liberal proposition for the purpose. of giving Salisbury a good electric light service. The ptopo- sition, as stated to Tne Star, is. that Mr. Boswell offers to put in enough in- condescent lights to light our streets as | good or better than the light usually | given by the few scattered arc lights usually found in towns the size of Sal= isbury. ‘For this service, we are informed,tha town is to grant a five-yeat franchise and pay $200 per month for street light | ing, the revenue derived from private [lights to go to the borough. | another order for 2,000 forty-ton freight | cars, the same to be delivered by Feb. | order the | If the proposition was correctly stat- ed to Tur Star, we think the town ought to jump at the chance, for we feel sure that the borough could make | more out of private lights than it would ministration the railroads of the coun- | try did not need more than half the! cars that are required to handle their | require to pay for the street lights. The Merchant Company has a large electric plant at their mines, and this plant being practically idle at night, | enables the company to give this town ‘cheap light. Now then, let our leading citizens and the Town Council get a move on them, and let no man be guilty of sitting on the tail of progress. ‘God helps those who help themselves,” and now is our tims to help our to n and litt it from dark- ness into light.
