have comparatively little interest to American
readers. He expounds the dogma Of lnfalli-
bility, quoting largely from the theological
textbooks of the late Archbishop Kenrick OF
Baltimore, who is generally accepted as

TIE RINK NOTE CURRENCY.

The paper money issued by the National
banks has been 30 long established ana the
people are so familiar with the system, that
the report of tho Controller of the Currency
has not the interest of dealing with novelty.
The only new thing is the bank note redemp-
ton scheme, and into that Mr.. Knox does not
enter exbaustively. He considers the chief
end of the so-called redemption the exchange
of new paper for old. This certainly Is de-
sirable thing. Since the act OF June ~ went
into operation twenty million dollars IN worn
out bank notes have been delivered to the Con-
troller for destruction. We regret, however, that
the National banks have the option of receiving
in exchange for these wOrn-0ut notes Dllls Oh
n smaller denomination than i've dollars.
The amount now outstanding OF bank notes
below the denomination OF five dollars Is
SS972,Si1, while the amount OF legal-tender
notes of corresponding denominations Is $685.
223 525. or more than six times as much as the
total of the small notes issued by the banks.
If we are ever so fortunate as to see the
legal-tender promises of the Government worth
par in gold, it will be desirable to withdraw
all notes for less than five dollars, in order
that their place may be supplied with coin.
If, under such state of things, the banks
enjoy tho privilege of circulating small notes.
their opposition to being deprived OF 1t would
be formidable, because it would then be more
valuable than it is now AS they now issue
less than one-seventh part of the circulation
below five dollars, there would be little hard
shin to them and little difficulty, with the aid
of the redemption machinery, in gradually
Withdrawing their small bills from circulation.
AS things are now, it is perhaps not unlikely
that the legal-tender notes below five dollars
will be displaced by National bank notes.
The wear and tear of tho one and two
dollar bills is much greater than that of the
larger denominations. This, while in the end
advantageous for the issuers Of them through
the larger proportion lost and destroyed, is
for the time an increased expense, because
they must Oftener be renewed. On the other
hand, since the small notes are most OF them
at all times in the pockets OF the people, the
difference to the banks between having
S56,OOO,0O0 of them issued by the Government
or by the banks is almost equivalent to an
increase OF decrease by the same amount OF
the legal-tender circulation. To the banks,
we say, because it is of no consequence
to the citizen whether the one and two
dollar bills in his pocket are issued by the
banks or by the Treasury. But in the end
there is considerable profit to the issuers Of
these small bills, and, so long as the system is
continued at ALL it is desirable that the public,
collectively, and not the banks, should reap
the benefit. BY looking over the statement of
liabilities of the old State banks which have
joined the National system it will be found
that a sum, by no means insignificant, repre-
sents old bank notes which have never been
presented for redemption and never will be.

SENSE I'M THE PATENT OFFICE.

The Patent Office in the hands Of competent
and intelligent men is capable of great deal
of good, and has doubtless accomplished much
in tho way of encouraging inventors and stlm-
ulating the ingenuity of practical artisans.
But its fault has never been that of excessive
carefulness and severity, and the immense
mass of models now heaped up IN Its snow
cases shows plainly enough that II any good
inventions have ever been rejected their places
were occupied by others which should never
have passed the Examiners. When, therefore,
we see that the people who are Interested in
keeping the patent business lively and thrlv-
ing are beginning to attack the Bureau FOL
its undue severity and narrOwness, we
are forced to conclude that it has
been acting with unusual discretion ana
good senss Tho fact that during the last
year 1900 applications for patents were re-
jccted, will not appear to the public so as
founding or 80 calamitous as it seems to the
solicitors. These gentlemen naturally think
tha, every inventor, who in good faith makes
a model and gives them fee, ought to have
his patent as matter of course. But IN 1act
thore is no moro injustice in refusing patent
to man whose invention does not deserve 1t,
than there is in q newspapers declining an
article which contains no new thoughts or
ideas. There is great deal said about the
duty of the Patent Office to extend helping
band to all comers. But its primary function
is to benefit the public, and individuals can
only share in its advantages so far as they
are likely to assist in that direction
AS to one particular, where the action OF
the Commissioner has excited the animadver-
sion of the sympathetic neighborhcod of the
Department OF the Interior, We think he Is
perfectly in the right. lie has, as it appears,
undertaken to refuse patents to physicians
prescriptions or compositions, on tho simple
ground that they are "not patentable" 1t
may easily be imagined that this decision is
not popular among the compounders of nos
trums, but we cannot see that any disinter-
ested person should object to it. Physicians
of the first class, those whose discoveries or
inventions are worth anything to mankind, do
not wish their prescriptions protected by
patents, and it is not to the public interest
that any others should be SO protected. The
Commissioner of Patents has done q sensible
thing in taking this position, and we hoDo he
will adhere to il,

THE ARKANSAS CASE AGAIN.

The Arkansas Republicans have not given
up hope of up5ettng the new Constitution, by
the aid of the Federal Government, and they
have succeeded in imposing upon some of their
honest friends at the North false representa-
ton OF the facts in the case, which it seems to
us important to have set right. 1t is said that
the Constitution was adopted in defiance of n
provision of the previous organic law which
ordered that amendments should be made by
the action of two successive Legislatures, sub
sequen,ly ratified by the people, and in no other
manner and although constitutional changes
have been effected several times in our history
by an illegal and irregular process, the opin-
ion of Judge jameson, our standard authority
on Constitutional Conventions, is quoted to the
effect that such changes are purely revolu-
tiOnary.
But the old Constitution of Arkansas did
not forbid revision by the machinery of u
Convention. The section relating to amend
ments was borrowed almost verbatim from
the organic law of New York, and merely per-
mitted the introduction of changes by the
process which we have just gone through in
this State. The partisans of Lieut.. Gov
Smith maintain that in pointing ont one
method of revision the Constitution forbade
any other by implication. This doctrine how
ever is not sustained by precedent, and is
distinctly disavowed by the same high
authority which has been cited in the OppO-
site sense. upon authority, certainly" says
Judge Jameson, "and l think also upon prin-
"ciple, it is competent for the people at the
"instance and through the ministry of the
"existing government to amend their Consti-
"tution, either in the mode presented or
Gin such other mode as custom may have
" sanctioned, and as sound statemanship may
under all the circumstances approve.
"Several instances have occurred in which
Conventions have been called by the Legs-
"latures of States under the circumstances indi-
"cated. In those cases, constitutional provisions
permitting amendments to be made in q par
tcular manner, or at a fixed time, through the
"agency of the legislative branch, had been
"found or fancied to be inadequate, because
" they either required to effect that object too
" large majority of that branch, or of the
"peOple or authorized them to be made at a
" time too remote so that the practical conse-
"quence was closing OF all legal avenues to
" change. Seeing no alternative to q resort TO
" force but the calling of q Convention under
L" the sanction of law, that course has by prefer
"cncc been pursued, not always without doubt
Z" or protest, though generally with the consent
4" of the wise, to which time has commonly
"a added the acquiescence OF all. 1t is unneces-
sary to do more than merely to state that
Conventions have been thus called in some
of the most important States in the Union
Among these were the Conventions of New
York, 1916; Louisiana, 1852; Massachusetts,,
"1Sj3, and Missouri, 1915 and 1861"
Thus it is plain that the new Constitution
of Arkansas is prima face just as regular as
the Constitution Of our own State, and not
