BETTER PATENT LAWS NEEDED. Unusual Interest will attach to the final report and recommendations tt the commissioners appointed by Presi dent McKinley to revise and amend the patent laws, who have been hold ing sessions in Chicago, because of the continual clamor of the populists and anti-trust agitators for the abolish atent of "patent monopolies." ' A patent monopoly, according to the populists, arises from the safeguards which the government Is supposed to throw around the patented products of inventive genius. Some of the popu lists are opposed to any sort of protec tion to the owners or Inventors of pat ented articles, believing that the world Is entitled to the benefit of all mechani cal devices or processes that are cal culated to contribute to the comfort or happiness of mankind. Others favor legislation which permits these devices to become the property of the people after a few years. Instead of lowering or removing 'the governmental barriers against in fringments of patents all revision or amendment of the patent laws should be In the direction of making the pro tection now afforded by the govern ment more secure against the en croachments of those who seek to profit by the industry or genius of others. The government issues "letters patent' to an inventor, which Is supposed to protect him in his right to the manu facture and sale of a device, but the protection is notoriously Ineffective and inadequate. It is not a criminal offense to steal mechanical ideas. An inventor cannot put a man in jail for infringing upon a. patented article and converting it to his own profit. The most he can do Is to mulct him for damages, but this iuite often Involves long and ex pensive litigation, and even then he may not be able to establish priority of idea or design to the satisfaction of a court. In the meantime unless an injunction is asked for and granted the Infringer continues to derive profit froth the product of another man's in ventive skill. i It is not creditable to our patent leg islation that such an inventor as Thoa. A. Edison should filially announce his conclusion, after long experience in liti gation, that a "United States tetters patent does not protect." It is stated, The Future of A child's life may be blighted by the diseases of youth, such as Rickets, which is characterized by weak bones or crooked spine, and inability to stand or walk steadily, cr Maras mus, that wasting disease characterized by paleness and emaciation, or Scrofula, a constitutional disease of the glands and neck. , Scott's Emulsion of pure Cod-Liver Oil with Hypo phosphites of Lime and Soda will prevent and cure these diseases. It supplies ust the material needed to form strong bones, rich red blood and solid flesh. It will also reach the infant through the moth ers milk, and be of the greatest benefit to both. At all dnurgtita ; toe and li.e SCOTT A DOWN E, Chemistt, New York. Cliirei In fact, that Mr. Edison does not lake out any nvire patent, on his electrical rievhvs. Every bona-lulo inventor or discover er of a mechanical contrivance or pro. cess Ik entitled to the profits from the pn-dnct of hi Inventive skill and the Unltiil States yhmild secure him in that right or uhollsh the patent office. nnYAN the roNQrwArxm. New York Tribune. Mr. Bryan In his Nebraska platform, which may well be taken as an antitype of the forthcoming Kansas City platform on which he will take his stiri't as a presidential candidate, is particularly hot and strenuous against militarism, imperialism and all the other like bouies which have been conjured up In his "mirage of over heated language." "We are," he cries, "opposed to purchasing traJe at the cannon's mouslit w ith human blood, We are not willing to convert republic into an empire. We op. pone militarism." To which mouth-fill in? phrases the juvenile yaps in the up per gallery no doubt respond with vigorous "Hi! hi'." And yet in that same benign and philosophical charter of humanity Mr. Bryan declares: "We are In favor of the immediate construction and fortl float ion of the Nicaragua canal by the United States." Is not Mr. Bryan aware that the Nicaragua canal !s to traverse the ter ritory of Nicaragua and Costa Rica, two independent, sovereign states? Are we to go down there, invade that territory with force and arms and purchase trade, or a highway for trade, "at the cannon's mouth with human blood?" Are we to seize their land, and thus "convert a republic into an empire?" Are we to establish great fortresses upon the land thus seised, and maintain a huge standing army there, and commit our selves to all the evils of "militarism?" Of a truth, this eminent expounder of humanitarian ethics appears to be crying "Good Lord!" in the Philip pines and "Good Devil!" In Nicara gua. THE PUERTO RICAN PETITION. New Tork Tribune. Some of the planters, merchants ani manufacturers of Puerto Rico have concluded that after all they do not wish their island to be made part and parcel of the United States. That is the meaning of their latest petl tion asking for the entire abolition of customs duties between this country and Puerto Rico, and the raising of revenue by an Internal tax equal to one-third of the revenue tax levied In the United States. They have been demanding the extension of the tariff laws of the United States as a con stitutional right, but they have re tired from that position and left in sorry plight the congressmen and editors who have been tearing passions to tatters over the outrage of govern ing them except under the constltu tion. Are these statesmen who wtep about the administration's Intention to oppress Puerto Rico still going to insist on extending the constitution to the island In face of evidence that the people do not want it, and that its ex tentlon would lay upon them a burden oi internal Taxation inree times as heavy as they think they ought to bear? What becomes of their pity for the Puerto Rlcans then? They would make themselves as much oppressors with their constitutional revenue laws as they complain the republicans would with nominal customs duties. The estimate of the committee of ways and means was that 25 per cent of the Dlngley tariff rates would pro duce a revenue of 12,300,000. If that Is correct, 15 per cent of those rates ought to produce 11,330,000. The Puerto P.lc- an petition estimates that the taxes levied by the United States Internal revenue laws would amount to 12,237,- 000. It would therefore cost the peo ple of Puerto Rico nearly $1,000,000 more a year, all coming out of their own pockets right at home, to live un der the constitution than would ba raUed for their benefit from bolh the Puerto Rlcan and American tra Jers in the custom houses here as well as on the Island. That would be a queer way of extending the blessings of pros perity and a protection constitution. The Puerto Rlcans think this con stitutional internal revenue tax is too much for them to pay, and quite natur ally. In a country where living is cheap and wages low the stamp and other Internal taxes which we pay might be a serious mishap. For in stance, $1.10 a gallon might put rum to a prohibitive price, discouraging production or encouraging Illicit man ufacture. Other levies might operate In the same way on industries much fHotiscvvprk is haid woA Vvitliout GoldDtistn j WASHING WOOLEN BLANKETS Tba theory tow la, that tlanWta taatt I MbKl taattad ol drr-clraard re t httltty.

Sold by CHARLES ROGERS more worthy of encouragement Im posts become oppressive as the selling price of articles taxed at a fixed rate decreases, and the taxes suited to us probably would be onerous to people who live well in tropical climates on Incomes utterly Inadequate to the de mands of our more complex life. So the Puerto Rlcans are. perhaps right In thinking one-third of our Internal revenue rates would about suit them. They are applying exactly the same principle to their problem as did the committee of ways and means, which concluded that a small fraction of our tariff duties would suit their indus trial condition and provide a reason able amount of revenue. Both favor special tax laws for Puerto Rico, dif fering only about the way of apply ing them. The Puerto Rican proposal is Just as incompatible with the ex tension of the conslltutlon to the isl and as that of the committee of ways and means. Wherever under the constitution our customs laws extend our internal reve nue laws necessarily operate. Tne rule of uniformity is as sacred for imposts and excises as for, duties. As a matter of act, it was not un:il 1SC3 that congress extended the internal revenue laws to all places "within the exterior boundaries of the Unhed States," but if the constitution neces sarily applies to all territory of the United States the earlier practice was urcoiisiifutlonal, and poor Puerto Rico, whether it likes it or not, must pay internal taxes at our war revenue rates. Are the democrats and their sentimen tal asistants going to give the Puerto Ricans what they want, or grind them down under the high Imposts to which they do not consent? Do these states men want to make them pay $1,000,000 they t at 111 afford for the blessings of a constitution that does not fit them. or are they going in response to this demand from San Juan to consent to the republican doctrine of legislating for each new territory" as its needs may reqiiiie, unhampered by our own iaivs? There Is no middle ground. WAR HEROES TOO PREVIOUS.
