JOH N f T h ALL TIE COMING DEMOTION OREGON, TUESDAY, DECEMBER pal corporation need street-car or telephone facilities, or water, or gas supply, it is not thought fit for itself to provide these, as giving it too much and paternal power; but straightway a franchise is granted to a corporation, and property con demned therefore, and even public aid extended, as we have alreudy seen it done in the building of rail roads; the business is, however, conducted wholly for the gain of the private corporation. It is not strange, where these corporations thus control concerns necessary and vital to the whole community, and where their franchise gives absolute monopoly, thus placing the public at their mercy, that they should amass enormous wealth." CARDINAL SOURCES OF THE QnEAT TUNES OF TODAY. FOR article of consumption and see at how many points nnd from how many directions even the simplest of these is made to contribute to their extortions. Take the coat on the farmer’s or the laborer’s back; the price of the wool is made higher by the load of debt the grower must incur for the usa of wealth in the raising of sheep, the price or rent of land, the interest charged upon his debt, taxation levied to build railroads, the exorbitant rates demanded by these for earning the wool to the manufacturer, and the plunder by speculators or trusts on its way. The manufacturer, too, must add to the price of the cloth in order to support the debt he must incur in its manufacture, together with the interest upon that debt, tho rent or price of land upon which his factory is situated, exor bitant transportation charged for the bringing of the wool to his fac tory, and the plunder of speculators and trusts. This same process of addition must be continued by the clothing manufacturer, the jobber, the wholesale merchant and the retail dealer, as the cloth or the fin ished product passes in turn into the hands of each on its way to the consumer; and the greater the plunder or privilege, the more exorbitant must be the prices charged at each step. The final price paid by the consumer is thus out of all proportion to what it should or would be, were industry not in this manner, at ¿very step, the prey of privilege. Trace any article of food or clothing, or other use, through its passage from the raw to the final consumable shape, the result will be the same; and it can at once be seen bow wide is the field of operation, bow fruitful is the field of plunder for privilege.

There was never a time in the his tory of our country when the de mand for inventions and improve ments in the nrts nnd sciences gen erally was so great as now. The conveniences of mankind iu the fac tory nnd workshop, tho household, on the farm, and in official life, require continual accessions to the appurtenances nnd implements of each in order to save labor, time and expense. Tho political chnnge in the administration of government does not nffect the progress of the American inventor, who being on tho alert nnd ready to perceive tho existing deficiencies, does not permit tbe affairs of the government to deter him from quickly conceiving the remedy to overcome existing discrep ancies. Too great care cannot be exercised iu choosing a competent and skillful attorney to preparo and prosecute an application for patent Valuable interests have been lost and destroyed in innumerable instances by the employment of incompetent counsel, and especially is this advice applicable to those who adopt the No patent, no pay” system. Inven tors who entrust their business to this class of attorneys do so at im minent risk, as the breadth and strength of the patent is never con sidered in view of a quick endeavor to get an allowance and obtain the fee then due. THE PRESS CLAIMS COMPANY, John Wed- derburu, General Manager, 018 F street, N. W., Washington, D. C., representing a large number of im portant daily and weekly papers, as well as general periodicals of the country, was instituted to protect its patrons from the unsafe morhods heretofore employed in this line of business. The said company is pre pared to take charge of all patent business entrusted to it for reason able fees, ami prepares and prose cutes applications generally, includ ing mechanical inventions, design patents, trade-marks, labels, copy rights, interferences, infringements, validity roports, and gives especial attention to rejected cases. It is also prepared to enter into competi- tion with any firm in securing for eign patents. Write for instructions and advice. Pm i , i p W. Av iHf.TT, [ P. O.

Everybody knows what magnificent papers the “Examiner” and “ Call” of San Frnncisco are, as also the Thrice-n-AVeek New York AVorld and Twicc-a-AA’eek Boston Traveler—each of which nre worth the price asked. The Home aud Farm is a splendid agricultural and family jour nal, large lii-page paper, and of itself worth the price of both papers. AA’oimuikiml is a most attractive and entertaiuing home monthly, heartily Avclcomed by and instructive to the mothers and daughters; and the Farm News is edited by a staff of experienced agricultural writers, is handsomely printed, and contains what the practical farmer wnnts. AVord and AA'ork« is Rev. Irl Hicks’ paper of St. Louis. This is a scien tific journal and is full of excellent reading matter. The Almanac, given with the paper, contains 100 pages of forecasts and other useful infor mation and is a valuable kook. Tho Road is a large, wide-n-wide Populist paper, published by “ raid- dle-of-the road” Herbert George, of Denver, Col. Of The Silver Knight it is only necessary to say that it is Senator Stewart's fearless paper, and is published iu AV'ashingtou City. Our Nation’s Crisis is best advertised by saying that it is owned and edited by Gov. Waite, Colorado’s great Populist governor, the AVar-horse of the Rockies. It is good reading. The Rural Northwest is an Oregon farm journal, and is clean and well managed.
