Sale of Patent Rights--Recent Leg
isIation.
As q severe penalty attaches to /,
violation of the provisions OF the
staute enacted during the last session
in relation to the sale of paten
rights in this State, it may be wei
briefly to call attention to this law
1t provides that any person propos
ing to sell or barter any patent rights
shall, before doing so, submit to the
Probate Judge Of the county in which
such sale is proposed, the letters pat
ent, or an authentical copy, for his

make an affidavit before such Judge,
giving the name, age, residence, DC,
of the applicant; the affidavit to be
filed and preserved in the court, and
copies to be given of the record, on
demand, as Of other public records.
Any person to whom the certificate
may be issued, shall exhibit the same
to any person on demand.
The penalty fer offering to sell or
barter, or taking any obligation or
promise, in writing, for q patent right
without complying with the require
ments of the act, is q fine not exceed
ing $4,000, or imprisonment in the

of the court, besides the liability to a
civil action at the suit of the injured
party.

Tho recent report Of the directors
of the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and
Chicago railway, shows that the de
|terioratiOn of iron rails necessitates
the relaying OF their whole road with
new iron everv four years. and thai
the cross ties for the entire line mus,
be replaced every fOEF and two
thirds years. The great wear OF rail-
is attributed to the intreased weight
of locomotives and cars that of late
years have gradually and almost i'm
perceptib'y come into use. Wher
steam power was first spilled on rail
roads, the engines weighed eight, ten
or twelve tuns each now they weigl
from forty to fifty tuns each. Al
the locomotives cannot well be made
lighter. tho only apparent remedy il
the employment Of steel rails.
