The local option law went Into effect In this county Tues day at midnight, the sc.rr.e heir.g 01 days after the election by which the county was voted "dry." The new law only affects those saloons whose licenses were issued prior to the elec tion, but liu,nn whose licenses have been granted since the election, ac cording to a recent decision of the attorney general of the state, will be permitted to run until those licenses xpht. For that reason a number of f:iIo'.!:s of this county will run until In the spring, some of them until April. Held for Manslaughter. Condon, Ore. IS. K.

R'seburg, Ore Senator Albert Abraham, whose name has been men tioned as next receiver of the local United States laryl office, to succeed J. M. Lawrence, emphatically denies that he is a candidate for that office. It is believed that George W. Riddle of Riddle Is the man whom Senator Bourne will recommend for the office if he has not already done so. The only active candidate known for the receivership to succeed B. L. Kl';- In 5?. T. Allen, who has for warded a large petition to Senator Bourne. Mr. Allen has been a clerk in the Koseburg office for some time past and his courtesy and accommo dating manner has made h;m liked by the patrons of the office. Washington. Pity the poor Inven tor. If there is anything to be said of him, according to General Allen, ihief slgmtl officer of the army, It Is that he works hard for nothing. In most cases he pays more to secure hiB patents than ho gets out of them. If h" iv iioob s himself with the delusion that he has evolved something new f : the service of humanity he Is again wrong. This observation of General Allen's was called forth by the fate of pat ents on the two most extraordinary invention of recent years, both of which came within 'tho province of (lie signal corps. They are tho fly ing machine and wireless telegraphy. Wireless telegraphy patents have led to pome glory, much litigation and more or less chaos. The men who proposed to make fortunes have been grievously disappointed. Any ama ti ur can set up his Instruments nowa-. days and operate to his own sweet will. Patent laws will not affect him and there are no other laws to reg ulate his actions. He can do as well as the discoverer who spent a fortuno and years of labor to make his pas time possible. The value of the patents of the Wright brothers is to be tested anon in eases of trial for infringement Whether the Wrights will be more successful than the wireless inventors yet to be proven. It Is doubtful. Efforts will be made to show that jhanute possessed all the secrets of the Wright aeroplane before the Wrights built it. Even Prof. Langley, whose death was to a certain extent due to the derision his unsuccessful attempts at flying called forth from certain members of congress. Is said to have known some of them himself. In view of all this it is a question whether Wilbur and Orville Wright's achievements will be one of more than passing glory. If the courts decide that their patents are merely the fru.ts of others thinking there is no reason why the amateur should not run the risk of breaking his neck on a machine of his own construc tion after the pattern of the Origin i aeroplane, Just as ho has been free! to d ibble in wireless telegraphy. The mi n who make money at In vention are those who design coffee pot handles or aluminum pants but tons.

Halt Washington. Apart from the north pole controversy Commander Robt. E. Peary has achieved at least one triumph feir the benefit of man k'nd as a result of his latest northern dash. This is the Invention of a com bined coat and hood, obviously for use In arctic latitudes for which the government has granted a patent to the explorer. The official gazette de scribes it as a garment made of sub stantial non-stretchable material adapted to cover the trunk, arms and head of the wearer, having a body port. on. arms and a hood. There are no openings except at the bottom, the ends of the sleeves and the face por tion of the hood. Naturally the Peary Jacket, as It might be called, slips over the hiad. The openings are pro vided with rims of fur, forming a sort of packing about the wrists, face and wrist to keep out the cold air. imiMHiliilllllliUMi lUliiOiiSiil Cures Colds Kondoii's breaks tip a coM In few hours clears tho bead relieves dullcat e nasal tncmbraoe pleasant to take abso lutely pure ana tfuar- antcea.

CONGRESS MISSED A GOOD OPPORTUNITY Washington The discussion which congress devoted to the question of fn-e cigars and free sugar imported from the Philippines before It was decided to limit the amount of these commodities wh'ch may be Imported free of duty might very well have been devoted to other subjects. The rune result would have been obtain ed and congress would have gained a reputation for generosity if it hael decided to let the Islands fcend over ail the cigars and sugar they could. So far there is no Indication that there is any chance of exceeding the limit imposed. The bureau of Insuiar affairs of the war department has been Informed that during the month of Sentember ..!!En!!!S!Ea J 7.365,000 cigars were shipped from the Philippines to the I'nited States and 35,000 tons of sugar. These fig ures are' accepted s a fair monthly average. At this rate of exportation there will be many less than the 150, 000.000 cigars allowed free entry. Similarly, it is not expected that there will be 300,000 tons of sugar. Much of the sugar which cleared for the United States during the month uZ .'jei.;e:nlie r was held back pending the action of congress so that it is likely that tlvre wi'l b" a smaller amount shipped during the forthcom ing months of the fiscal year.
