Edison's Laboratory at Menlo Park,
(N. J.), was on the night of December
31, 1879, thrdwn open to the general
public for their examination of his
electric light. Special trains from tho
East and West were run, and notwith
standing the stormy weather visitors
came in crowds. The laboratory was
lighted up with twenty-fivo electric
lamps, the office and counting-room
with teu, and the street ahd adjoining
houses with some twenty more: The
method of operating the lights from a
central station was shown in the laobra
tory in detail, and tho lamps were sub
jected to a variety of tests. One of the
lamps was placed by Edison in a large
glass jar filled with water and tho cur
rent turned on. The little paper fila
ment emitted its customary beautiful
illumination without tho slightest dim
inution on account of tho water. It
was kept.
BURNING IN THE WATER
For several hours. Another light was
turned off and on as many times as it
was calculated it would be in actual
household practice m thirty yeara and
without any perceptible injury to the
TaieU oy the inventor in detail, as
iy themventor in detail,
i -
was also the method of measuring the
amount of electricity consumed. The
latter is an exceedingly simple system,
and consists in the electricity deposit
ing minute particles of copper upon
plates placed in aii electric meter, the
quantity of copper deposited repre
senting when weighed, the amount of
electricity consumed. A motor, operat
ed in connection with the electric light
and by the same current, was also
shown, running a sewing machine and
pumping water. The inventor regards
this part of his system as furnishing an
assurance of
THE GREATEST ECONOMY,
As electricity will bo consumed largely
in the daytime; whereas gas is used
during only five or six hours at night,
and all machinery used in its produc
tion is idle and eating up in expense
during the balance of the 21 hours.
Among tho visitors were a number of
prominent gas stockholders, who sub
jected the system td the spverest scru
tiny; and as the bright and beautiful
light, burning without flame or flicker,
stood all their tests, their skepticism
was considerably shaken. Ex-Secretary
Robeson, Hon. William E Chand
ler and Senator Plumb of Kansas
were amohg the notables present. The
inventor and his assistants afforded all
who came every opportunity to inspect
the system, from the making of the pa
per filament to the production of the
light The exhibition was in every
respect a success. The laboratory will
remain open to the public for a few
days longer. Then Edison proposes to
review his work and get all in readi
ness for general uso throughout the
country.
"I do not think the electric light can
be shown in New York for sometime
to come," remarked Mn Edison to a
reporter yesterday. "So long as the
Electric Light Company ia satisfied
that the l'ght is a success I care little
for adverse criticism."
A son of President Green of the
Electric Light Company says that two
gentlemen who have been in Cincin
nati, Louisville and Indianapolis, and
are now on their way to San Francisco,
claiming to have tho privilege of dis
posing of rights to light cities with
the Edison elctric lamp, have no con
nection whatever with the Company.
They have, he understands, enlisted the
services of a law firm in this city, who
claim to bo able to get a privilege from
the city as a part of a movement to en
able dealers in mining stocks to bar
row the money upon the same with like
facility as upon railway and other se
curities. San F-uusco "Chronicle."
We find in a Democratic exchange,
the "Oregon City Enterprise," Lincoln'
peroration at Gettysburg, Which it pros,
nounces "the greatest of speeches." It
requires no comment:
"Four score and seven years ago out
fathers brought forth on this continent
a new nation, conceived in liberty, and
dedicated to the proposition that all
men are;created-qaaL-
"Now we are engaged ih & great
civil war, testing whether that hatioaj
or any nation so conceived and so dedii
cated, can long endure. Wo are met
on a great battlefield of that war. We
are met to dedicate a portion of it as
the final resting place of those who
here gave their lives that a nation
might live. It is altogether fitting
and proper that wo should do this.
"But in a larger senso wo cannot dic
tate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot
hallow this ground. The brave men,
Hying and dead, who struggled here
have consecrated it far above our power
to add or detract. Tho world will lit
tle note nor long remember what we
say here, but it can never forget what
they did here-. It is for us, tho livings
rather to bo dedicated here to the un
finished work that they have thus far
so nobly Carried on. It is rather for ua
to be here dedicated to the task re
maining before us that from these
honored dead we take increased devo
tion to tho cause for which they gave
the last full measure of devotion
that we hero highly resolve that tho
dead shall not have died in vain, that
the nation shall, under God, have a
new birth of freedom, and that tho
government of the people, by the peo
pie, and for the people, shall not perish
from the earth."

a business chart of Southern Oregon.
The chart is not noticed by ono person
in five hundred, and yet this same chart
cost our business men in the way of
amounts paid for advertising their cards
therein about $600. The printing of
the chart was an expense to the pub
lisher counting travelingexpenses,etc.
ofnot more than $150, and his prdf
its were at least $450. Had the busi
ness men of Southern Oregon given
this 600 to their local newspapers lot
advertising they would certainly haye
given publicity to their bu siness, and
got their advertisements in print in a
way that they would have been soen;
besides they would have helped the
newspapers which are always helping
them. Roseburg "Independent"
Arctic Wave. Tho arctic wave
which commenced to1 sweep from thd
North on the 21st, continuing till thd
27th of December, was one of the se
verest and most extensive that has ever?
visited the North American continent
The cold seems to have been severest
in the Red rivor valley of the North
and the Mississippi valley from St.
Paul down to St. Louis and Memphis.'
At points in the Red river country tho
mercury sank to 46 degrees below zero.
The Pacific slope also came in for a big'
share of the cold. At various points id
Eastern Oregon the thermometer reg
istcred 22 degrees below zero; in Wes1
tern Oregon, including points in Rogue;
river valley, the mercury sank to 3 and
6 degrees below zero. When it is eons
sidered that the people of this slopo art
unused to such cold weather and are
utterly unprepared for it, is it any won
der that there is much suffering among
both men and beast?
Tho Washington correspondent oi
the Chicago "limes" (Dem.), writing
under date of December 27th, gives a
brief history of a secret Understanding
between the friends of Tilden and Hen,
dricks when the latter accepted the!
nomination for the Vico-Presidency.'
The understanding was to the effect
that Hendricks should have a clear1
field in 1880, providing he would ac
cept the nomination in 1876. Gov
ernor Hendricks accepted only with
that understanding, and Tildcri wad
then pledged by his friends to support
Hendricks in 1880. After the decis
ion of the Electoral Commission it was
learned that Tilden did not consider
himself bound by any agreement, while'
Hendricks' friends insisted on its ful
fillment. Dorsheimer, who was then
Tilden's friend, but now his .'bitter
enemy, and Tammany, always enemies
of Tilden, intend to stick to thcirr
word to support Hendricks.
