Here (he Attorian asserts that a!

a state Is to tho union, that a town.
ship is to the county, or a county to
the state, what a state is to tho union.
This proposition is so utterly fallacious
that WO can only express our surprise
that a man, otherwise so Intelligent
find fair as the editor of the Aatorian
is, would make It. Not an Intelligent
lawyer in the Republican party, aye,
not a Republican Judge on the bench
in any etate or the United States but
would repudiate euuh a groundless,aa
well as dangerous, doctrine. The
state is sovereign as to the exercise of
all powers not dolegated to the gen-
eral government. A state of the on-
ion exercises no delegated power. All
her powers are orlglnsl, inherent,
The powers exercised by a school die-
inci, town snip or county are sucn on-
ly as have been delegated to them by
the state. These powers nre not In-
herein. A count v or district can ex-
erclse only such power as Is delegated
to thm by the legislature. A state
can exercise all powers aot delegated
to the general government. The
Aslorian should remember that
the people of the United States have
a wiltten constitution, and that that
constitution was made to be obeyed,
and that the general government Is
ae much bound to observe its provi
sions as any state. Our present Su
prerae Court of the United States,
although almost unaralnnmlv Repub

this question have as carefully pre

after the fatigue of Bsrtholdl dsy In
New York, and eel tied down to thefr
desks, I do not think they ere billed
(or any mere fairs or on veil Inge this
fall. The annual autumn races, which
have always attracted Isrge coo tin
gents from the feshlenabie,dipiomatlc,'
army, navy and official circles of
Washington, ere Is progress, bat the
weather is nnprcpltlotts and they
have excited leas Interest than usual.
Those of yon who live far removed
from Governmental machinery can
not realise the extent of the improve,
meots In Departmental work under
the new Administration. Bat those
of as who here been here ell the time,
end who have seen so much of the
Idleness, extravagance, worthlesenees
and corruption of the old Republican
officials and met hods, take special de
light in the new order of things end
feel as If too mecR could not be said
about It.
For Instance, lbs current bos loess
of the Patent Offise Is In a much bet
tor and more prosperous condition
than when Commissioner Montgom
ery assumed control. At that urns
the work was largely In arrears, and
be bee succeeded in bringing much
of it up to date. Toe application ef
an Inventor for a patent 1b now
reached In about three moot be after
filing. The time for Tier I y wee five
end a half months. Mr. Montgomery
seys be expects to be able te bring all
of the work substantially op to date
within the next few months, snd so
keep it.
A little over a year ago some of
the divisions io this office were es
much aa seventeen months behind la
their examinations. To fully appre.
elate the work accomplished, consid
eration most be given to the fact that
the Commissioner was inexperienced
end bad to study np and advise him
self thoroughly on all points relating
to R very difficult practice. The at
torneys practicing before the office
are much pleased with the progress
made, end nek that the good work
msy go on. The Patent Office, beeides
being self supporting, pays a balance
in the Treasury. There te now an
account to Its credit thereof nearly
three million dollars. Lest year
24,134 patent were granted oat of
87,695 applications.
A new order of thtegs eonffonte poli

few oan be teen here this week. The
elections are .only five days off, bat the
habit of running to Washington to a
harry to get ft tends or offices to assist
to the eleottoo,is not in order this year.
No assistance beyond sanding out docu-
menu by the campaign committees bss

result, the Admintstrstisu has rigidly
abstainsd from everything that could

There is much doubt ss to the general
result of the election, but wh stover it
may be as to psrtit, there will bo a
Urea number of new men in the next
House. The recent action et the Pres

dioatioa that ths order is te strictly

of disomsals will result from violations
0f this order. A general court ot in-
hmiry would probably not lm found
practicable, but where serious charges
are made and supported with Rurhc.ent
evidence, dismissals will follow.
