In regular circumstances the BLACK wire will be the "Hot" lead and the WHITE wire will be the "Neutral" or "Common" lead.
A GREEN or BARE COPPER wire is the "Ground". In older buildings it is always good practice to reconfirm the polarity of the wiring.

FIXTURE INSTALLATION
1. Determine the overall desired length of the fixture.
For general convenience the fixture is shipped
with the leads threaded through the stems.
If the stems are rearranged or additional stems are added,
tape the ends of the leads to a stiff wire (coat hanger)
to aid in pulling them through the stems.
2. (Starting at the back), thread the 2 longest screws into the mounting strap.
(The green ground screw is the front ). Attach the mounting strap
to the outlet box. (The green screw should face the floor).
3. Thread the small hex nuts onto the screws.
Lock the hex nuts against the crossbar.
4. Fasten the ground wire to the green or bare copper wire
in the outlet box or to the green screw on the crossbar.
NEVER FASTEN THE GROUND WIRE TO THE BLACK
OR "HOT" WIRE !
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS INSTRUCTION COULD RESULT
IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH !
5. Fasten the white fixture lead to the white wire in the outlet box.
Fasten the wires together with an approved fastener (wire nut).
Starting about 1' below the fastener, tightly wrap the connection
with electrical tape so that the tape seals the end of the fastener.
Make sure that there is no exposed wire or strands that
could cause a dangerous short circuit !
6. Connect the black fixture lead to the black wire in the outlet box.
Fasten the joined wires as in step 5.
