For Representatives.

The Republican Representative COM
mittee for this district met at PetOskey
last Tuesday to put in nomination a
candidate for Representative in the
Legislature in place of Watts S. Hum
phrey, declined. They chose Israd Cam
by, Of Emmett, as the man. While not
personally acquainted with Mr.. Candy,
from what we hear of him, we are salts
fed the committee made wise selection,
and that the interests of the district
will be well cared for in the hands of Mr..
Candy. The following are the pream-
BILE and resolutions adopted by the COM
mittee and fully explain themselves.
At a meeting of the Republican Rep
resentative Committee for the legisla-
tive district, composed of the counties of
CharleyOiX, Emmett and ChebOygan,
held at PetOskey, October 10, 1882, the
following preamble and resolution was
adopted:
WHEREAS, the necessity for the nomi-
mating of a Republican candidate for
the state legislature for the district COM
posed of the counties of CharlevOix, En-
met and Cheboygan has arisen, occasion
ed by the declination of Watts s. Hum
phrey ESQ.,, and
WHEREAS, owing to the limited time
intervening before the general election,
the committee deem 1t inexpedient and
impracticable to call convention for
the purpose of making denomination.
AND WHEREAS: The committee have
entire confidence in the honesty, integri-
ty and ability of Israel Candy for the
position, and believe the Republican
party of the district will approve of our
action in the premises.
Therefore, Be it Resolved:
FIRST. That the committee deeply re-
gret that Mr.. Humphrey deemed it
necessary to decline the nomination.
SECOND. That Israd Candy of Emmett
county be, and is hereby placed in nomi-
nation as the regular Republican nomi-
nee, for the position of Representative
in the state legislature for the district,
and that he be, and is recommended to
the suffrages of the electors Of the dis
trict. GEO. w. BELL,

Senatorial Convention.

The Republican Senatorial convention
for the Twenty-Ninth district was held
at Cheboygan last Tuesday. z. M.
Knight of Alpena called the convention
to order. EU
J.C. Wooster, of Cheboygan was elect
ed Chairman, and z. M. Knight, secreta-
ry. Upon motion, the chair appointed
Granger Hill, of Iosco, and H. A. Gulli-
fer, of Altoona, committee on credentials.
The committee reported the following
delegates entitled to seats in the conven-
tiOn.
Alpena-Z. M Knight. Joseph Cavar
naugh, A. Spratt and James A. Case.
IoscO-Benj. +. Smith, W. II. SimsOn
and Granger Hill.
Alcona-W. <. De Pew and j. 4. Fair.
ChebOygan-Watts s. Humphrey and
j. G. Wooster.
0tsego-F. B. Weldon. Dt
Upon motion the convention proceeded
to an informal ballot for candidate
with the following result: Whole num-
ber of votes, IL; f. o. Gullifer, 8; O. K.
nj. CutcheOn, 4. A formal ballot was
then had, resulting in f. O. Gullifer re-
ceiving the unanimous vote of the con-
ventiOn.
The following Senatorial Committee
was elected.
Y. M. Knight, of Alpena; VIM. Marsh,
of Roscommon; G. j. Hunt, Of Cheboy-
gan; 0. E. M. Cutcheon, of Iosco and H.
f. Bonner, of Otsego.
We think the convention made very
judicious and most excellent selection
when they nominated Mr.. Gullifer. He
is one of the live men of the district, and
will make an able representative of the
district in the Senate. He is an earnest
worker, and will look well after the in
terests of this rapidly growing district.
Decidedly popular wherever known he
will poll the full party vote, and his
election is beyond question.

Report Of the Signal-Service Office.

WASHINGTON, October 81.
The Chief Signal Officer of the Army, in his
report, says eleven stations have been
added, and special reports are made for the
cotton and tobacco-growing regions of the
country, and the means for giving warnings
to cattle-raisers of Texas against the approach
OF ''northers' have been improved. Export
ments have been made with view Of increas-
ing the value of the farmers bulletin by the
addition of a weather chart of the United
States, and it is believed that in q hort time
these charts may be successfully reproduced
on the farmers bulletin. With each year the
popular knowledge OF the uses of this bulletin
enables tho e interested in agriculture to judge
of the correctness of forecasts, and with the
addition of the proposed weather-map individ-
uals will be able to make correct predictions
of the weather for localities which it is
impossible to provide for in the brief sentence
which expresses the prevailing weather indi-
cations anticipated for an entire district. 1t is
contemplated, as the work of the Office pro-
crosses, to add to this bulletin brief instruc-
tons for the use of instruments which may
hereafter be furnished for local Observers.
The railway bulletin service has proven of
great value the past year. The system of frost
warnings for the benefit of the sugar interests
in Louisiana has been continued. During the
coming year it is proposed to telegraph frost
warnings direct from the Signal Office to all
telegraph offices in the sugar-g owing sections.
1t is proposed the coming fall to establish
system OF frost warnings for the
benefit of the tobacco-growing interests
of the country, also similar service for the
benefit of the orange growers of Florida. A
system of reports for the benefit of the cotton
interests has been thoroughly organized and
successfully Operat ID snce eptenber 1851. AT
the sOlicitat on Of those interested in the cult
walton of wheat and other grains in the North
west it is contemplated to establ sh service
similar to that now in operation for the benefit
of the cotton interests, which will enable this
office to publish in the journals Of the North
west the daily rainfall and temperature. as de-
termined from large number Of stat ons.
The cost to the Government of the who
do the signal service work is less than S450,OO0
a year. The cost of salaries alone for the same
number of civilian clerks would amount to
more than $500 900.

Report Of the Indian Bureau.

WASHINGTON, October T.
Commissioner Price, of the Indian Bureau.
has transmitted to the Secretary of the Interf-
Or his report for the fiscal year ended June ~,
1872 The Commissioner says: Land has
been opened to cultivation. houses for Indian
residences built, schools opened and operated,
and in many cases and in various ways the
cause of civilization generally advanced. The
difficulty of procuring agents of the right
stamp is regarded as one Of the most inn
portant causes which operate to retard the
Improvement of the Indians
The cooperation of the religious societies is
regarded by the Commissioner as very import
ant auxiliary in the civilization of the Indians,
and he points to the benefits derived from
their work during the past few years The
present appropriations are regarded as entire
ly too small to compass ends to be obtained
within a reasonable time The COmmiss. oner
says: " If $l0000O0 for educational purposes
given now will save several millions in future,
1t is wise economy to give that million at once,
and not dole it out in small sums that do little
good" The evils of cash annuities are
commented upon, and an instance given
where, after a cash payment to the
Utes. $1,000 were spent for firearms, arnmu-
milton and whisky in Salt Lake City, and in a
short time nine-tenths of the payment went in
the same direction. The funds appropriated
by Congress in the regular appropriation bill
for the support of the Indians proved entirely
insufficient, mainly owing to the high price of
beef and flour. The total number of Indians
in the United States, exclusive of Alaska, is
262, 366.
The Commissioner comments in severe
terms upon the iniquity of the liquor traffic
among the Indians, and quotes many instances
OF trouble arising from it. He recommends
greater stringency in the laws on the subject,
and says those sections of the statutes which
allow army officers to introduce liquor into the
Indian country should be repealed The re-
port declares there is urgent necessity for adj
ditional legislation to prevent intrusion upon
Indian lands.
Exclusive of the five civilized tribes. the
whole number of Indian pupils attending
school the past year has been sos. Of these
45S were in attendance at the Carlisle, Hamp-
ton and Forest Grove training-schools. OF the

be constituted permanent appropriation for
the purpose. Last year these Deductions
amounted to nearly $1,000. which reverts into

Patent-Office Report.
WASHINGTON. [

n,
Commissioner Marble Of the Patent Office,
has submitted his annual report TO the Secre-
tary of the Interior. During the past fiscal
year 3U,0j2 apple atoms for patents. registra-
ton of trademarks labels and reissue patents
were received. Of these 17,7l3 patents were
granted and 100 trademarks registered. The
total receipts of the Office from all sources
were $3.50, s6i. and the expenditures S651, 11a
leaving surplus of S2.9, las.
The Commissioner calls attention to the sec
ton Of the Revised Statutes which provides
that every patent granted for an invention
which has been previously patented in 81 for
eign country shall be SO limited as to expire at
the same time with the foreign patent" and to
the fact that uncertainty exists as to the term
of foreign patents, because of the conditions
on which they are issued. The report says:
- In my opinion the terms of patents issued
by this Office should not be rendered uncer-
tain by the operation of the laws of any for
eign country nor by the failure of the pat
entees or their assignees to do what such law
requires. In view of the fact that the terms
for which patents may be granted in foreign
countries are shorter than for which they may
be originally granted in this country, l think
that twelve years would be proper term for
patents where the invention has first been pat
ented or patent applied for in a foreign coun-
try, and that the applicant should file his APP
pIcation within two years after the issuance
of such patent or application therefor.
"AttentlOn is also directed 10 decision of
the Supreme Court of the District that the
Commissioner Of Parents has no discretion in
the registration of labels, but if an applicant
comes with trademark, calls it label, and
asks for its registration and pays the fees re-
CURED by law for the registration of a label.
1t is the duty of the Commissioner to cause it
to be registered"
The Comm ssioner says if the decision of
the court is to be followed, legislation should
be d which Will remove every question OF
doubt in relation to such registration.
