Ashtabula telegraph. (Ashtabula, Ohio) 1874-1880, 1875-04-23

The Patent ONCE, department Of the
Government which has hitherto been re-
gsrded free from the taint OF corruption
and fraud, now comes In for its share of
investigation. 1t is charged that the
Chief Examiner of the Patent Office has
been guilty of the grossest abuses of the
sacred functions of his position-such as
receiving bribes, revealing confidential
information, tampering with letters pat
ent in the interest of rival applicants. etc.
In the interest OF American inventive
skill it is to be hoped that the Patent-of-
fee may be cleaDsed of even the slightest
ground for the allegation OF dishonesty
or irregularity, and, whether the pending
investigation results in finding the Chief
Examiner guilty or innocent of the Sc
rious charges against him, the Patent
Office will be none the worse for the over
hauling.

The inevitable squabble over d i'ru

Ward, diving a few months ago. iei' a lot
time of IS OOO, 900, and the funeral vas
hardly over before the heirs began 70
nu.rrel about the bequesls. One relative,
Who had received $4,000, said he de-
served ten times that amount, and gave
notice that he would contest the will.
The latest move is combined one by the
widow and some of the other heirs, and
consists of a petition to the Michigan Le-
gislature for amendment to the present
law relating to the settlement of estates,
SO as TO do away with the special admin
istrator who may now be appointed TO
take charge Of the estate until il is settled,
and. instead. 10 give the executors con-
troll. The sons resist the proposed change
in the law, and, as powerful lobby is
enlisted on both sides, bitter contest is
anticipated.
