CAMPBELL'S DEFEAT.

Among the most disheartening features
Of the campaign just closed, viewed from
national standpoint, is the defeat Of the
Hon. Alex. Campbell, candidate for re cleo
tion from the Seventh Congressional Dis
trict az illinois. We were aware that the
position taken by this gentleman during
the last session, on the financial question,
and the pertinacity and ability with which
his views we're advocated, had aroused
the wrath Of the monied power and Its ser
vile tools, and that he would be made the
special target for their mAlev olence yet
we fondly hoped that the manhood, the
patriotism, aye, aud the self-interest Of his
constituents would prove equal TO the
emergency, and that he would be triumph
antiy reelected TO position which he had
filled with such distinguished honor. In
thus hope We have been disappointed. A
pert, young. brainless blatherskite, capa-
BE only Of rehashing the exploded argu-
nIents of his bullion employers, has been
selected az the successor Of an intellectual
giant, who had no superiors and few equals
IN the halls Of Congress a man who had
the courage and ability to beard the lion
in his lair, to successfully combat the So
ph'-try Of the agents Of the monied power,
10 expose and denounce the labor-rubbing
system which has brought our country to
the verge Of bankruptcy, and to plead the
cause of the wealth producer against the
excresence, the fungi, the drones Of soci-
ETY.. Out on such treachery, such obse-
quious devotion to the party lash BUT,
and there is an all-importaut BUT attached
to this result. In defeating Mr.. Campbell,
in obeying the behests OF the Wall street
gamblers, whose hands are on their throats,
these party devotees should remember
they as have sowed to the wind they will
sssuredly reap to the whirlwind. The
foreclosure Of mortgages, the sheriff-s ham
mer, and last but not least, forcible evic-
ton, sure to follow, will afford them am
pie opportunity to thew the cud Of reAec-
ton over the beauty of a system which
secured specie resumption, and line of
argument that proved to their satisfaction
that the greenback which saved the life of
the nation could not save the nations
honor.
Yet the cause for which Mr.. Campbell
pleaded, and in the advocacy Of which his
name is indissolubly connected, will never
die. 1t will 1--we, despite the cowardlce,
the servility, the treason and opposition
of friend or foe. Its ultimate triumph in
assured, and when that triumph comes ~
come it Wilt the repsblic lasts-we
venture The assertion that few if any voters
in the Seventh Illinois Congressional Dis
trict will admit the fact that their votes
were cast for p. @. Hayes, or endorsed the
principles which no claimed TO represent.

Population VS.. Patents.

The last annual report Of the Commits
slOner of Patents embraces a tabular state
meut showing the number Of Patents is
sued during the year to each state and
territory, and the ratio between the pat
eDts issued and the population. We are
indebted to Messrs. Louis Bagger & Co.,
Patent Attornles, in Washington, ID. c.,
for the following interesting data from this
table
The State Of New York quite naturally,
1t having the largest population received
more patents for new inventions than any
other State-3,31I. Next to New York
comes Pennsylvania, with 1904 next
ranks Massachusetts, with 1916, next Hi
nols with 1893 And next OHIO, with ], UYI
patents. But the proportion Of patents to
population, as indicating the seat Of the
inventive genius Of the country, is more
significant. la the preceding report of
the Commissioner, Connecticut, (the land
of wooden nutmegs,) led the list ; but this
year the District of Columbia takes the
lead, with one patent for new invention
issued to every 6l5 Of the population,
Connecticut having only one Patent to ev-
cry 76l Of the entire population. M~ssa-
shusetts, also in this respect, stands third
in the list, the proportion being one to
every 7S7. " Little Rhody" GENES fourth,
with one to every The least invent
i've State, "a shown oy this table, is Arkan-
sas, which received but one Patent to ev-
cry A, 042 of the population.
