The drivewell fraud has at last received its death
warrant. This will he great relief to large class
of farme and villagers, toO throughout the north
west. The idea of substituting iron tube for the
old fashion wells was a happy one, and the iu-
yentor entitled to liberal compensation FOR 1t :;
but it has long been used for purposes Of Persecu
ton This well is n very simple affair. The bottom
is solid and pointed. and for foot or directly
above the point the tube is perforated with holes
and the holes generally covered with wire netting
to keep sand from sitting in. The actual expense
of such well is slight. OF course, it is not fcas-
bic in a rocky country, nor can it he used IN all
soils although nearly every obstacle in the way of
clay or quicksand has been cOyercOme. The device
is so simple that the of these wells spread like
wildfrc, and for years those claiming 10 own the
patents have pursued policy which has been little
short of blaekmai the owner of the well being I'M
certain to the proper party to receive the royalty
claimed II is a great relief to have the whole pat
emit set aside. The reasons that first. because
the inventor Greene, of New York, allowed it TO be
used two years before applying for a patent, and,
second, the reissue void. But it matters little
what arguments had weight with the judges. The
fact itself will bring sigh of relief from vast
number of people. Now if some way could be de
yised to rid the country of the barbedwre monopo-
w. another stride in the right direction would be
taken

VIII they Try the old nediein. Again.

The Democrats may well pause and consider
whether they had better take up again the issue Of
tariff for revenue only" There are no indications
that il would be any better understood in 1884 than
il was in 1870. and its deleterious qualities may not
have improved with age. The issue may be illus
