ELECTRIC UNIVERSE ETERNAL 249 



electrical attraction. There may also be belts or 

 zones of ether with the proper electrical vibration 

 or condition in the orbit of each planet and satel- 

 lite which hold them with giant grasp in their al- 

 lotted places. 



And every sun system may have its own peculiar 

 electricity, which has a repulsion for all other sys- 

 tems and holds each in its proper place. All these 

 things are possible and probable under the theory 

 of electrical creation. As twenty-eight currents of 

 electricity can pass over the same wire at the same 

 time, fourteen each way, how many kinds of elec- 

 tric currents may the universe possess? May not 

 each planet have its own peculiar current, and its 

 own peculiar attracting power, and the sun give 

 each a different electricity? 



While each sun system, with its revolving planets, 

 is held together by mutual electric attraction, the 

 eighteen millions of sun systems are prevented from 

 coming in collision with each other by the law of 

 electric repulsion. This would prevent any one sys- 

 tem from trespassing upon the domain or territory 

 of another, and permit each and all to move freely 

 among themselves and change places without danger 

 of trespass or collision. 



In case of too near an approach to each other 

 the law of repulsion would drive them off. This 

 would avoid the necessity of a central sun, which 

 probably does not exist or it would be visible. 

 If all these systems were positively magnetized or 

 all negatively magnetized they would repel each 

 other. This law of electrical repulsion would in- 

 crease the nearer these systems approached each 

 other, and this increasing power would send them
