The suit of Robert L. Downton against
the Yeager Milling company, of Missouri,
and on trial in the Supreme Court at
Washington, is of great Importance to the
flour milling interests of the country, it
being test case. By its decision the
validity of Downton's patent process for
crushing grain with iron rollers instead of
with mill stones, will be determined, the
former process being now in use by most
of the mills in the country. The Yeager
Milling company are principally fighting
the patentee on the ground that the patent
is 'void of novelty in invention" it having
in use the invention without remunerating
DoWnton.

GEN. F41RCHTLD FOE PRESIDENT.

q
The talk of proposing the name of Gen
Lucius Fairchild, of Wisconsin, to the
next Republican convention as candidate
for president is not as idle as it may seem
at first blush. There are many others
whose chances for the nomination are
seriously discussed by the newspapers and
politicians who possess fewer elements of
popularity and are far less available than
Gen. Fairchild. His claims to the place
were very fully set forth in the interview
with Congressman Guenther in MONDAYS
GLOBE, and need not be recapitulated, but
there are other reasons that make his name
a formidable one.
In the first place the northwest has
never been favored by either party with a
place on the national ticket. This has not
been for lack of the requisite material, for
the statesmen of this section will compare
faVorably in point of mental grasp with
those of any other section OF the country.
The people of the northwest are beginning
to feel themselves slighted, especially as
they contribute large share of the elect
oral votes of the country. Wisconsin, too,
has come to be doubtful state, and its loss
to the Republican party would cause the
loss of the election. Gen. Fairchild has
always bsen popular in that state, hay
ing been chosen governor three times
against the strongest men the Democrats
could name, and ia the face of the most
violent personal vili6caSion. No official
ever served the people more faithfully or
honestly than he, and as far as his public
career is concerned it is without spot or
blemish. Some of the follies of his youth
might be brought up against him, but as
lie act in manly, upright manner in
righting the wrongs he had committed,

The Sioux Falls Water Power Company.
There we're no new Developments of
moments in the affairs of the Sioux Falls
Water Power company on yesterday. The
Merchants National bank has placed no
attachments on the company's property,
nor will it, as it has no claim upon which
10 base the same. The attachments thus
far placed have been made by the Metro
politan National bank, of New York,
George I. Seney and V. NJ. Watkins,
and represent a total of $4,000 in
claims against the company. Those
who are in position to know, assert that
these proceedings will result in the mills
resuming business at once, with increased
facilities and clear of incumbrance. In
short, it may be stated, that the creditors
are the stockholders who have adopted the
means employed to get the money they
have advanced to keep the business run
ming, and as soon as this is accomplished
the brakes will be loosened, and the IN
dertaking permitted to resume operations.

should not be so sure of doing that. he
may easily bring the suit it is true, but
evidently he has not taken into account
the length of time required to bring such
q case to conclusion in the District of

to be established to do injustice to every

CHICAGO, April 1.-THE Union Iron and
Steel company will resume operations on
or about the 1st of June. The capital
stock of the company has been increased
from 100000 to 100000, and this will
enable them to make a settlement with
their creditors and start up with every
prospect of success. At a meeting of the
stockholders and creditors held last Friday
satisfactory settlement was reached on
the basis of 80 per cent. cash and so per
cent in preferred stock. The creditors
expressed themselves as being anxious to
meet the company half way, and willingly
assented to the above arrangement. The
Union Iron and Steel company will be
able to at once employ a large force, as
they now have lying on their docks about
10000 tons of ore, and orders that will
keep them busy for some time. The Off
GERS and stockholders remain the same as
formerly.

In 1880 333 DEGREES of divorce wera
granted by the San Francisco courts; in
1881 there were 364 and in 1882 the num-
Der was 366. Leaving the Chinese pop
ulation out of the count, this shows one
divorce for each 600 of the population.
Fifty-six per cent. were for desertien,
failure to support the wife and neglect
Less than ten per cent were for the script
ural cause. California as a state has no
divorce record, but the San Francisco rec
ord exceeds that of any other city, not

these would not weigh against him with
sensible people.
The fact that Gen. Fairchild is fres from
all entangling alliances in his own party
is strong point in his favor. He was
| living abroad during the fierce factional
warfare that has rent the party asunder,
and cannot be opposed by either stalwarts
with the rival cabal. In point of ability he is
equal to the average of our presidents; his
social habits admirably fit him for an en-
tertainer; his knowledge of foreign
diplomatic customs and persons will in
sure the good will of the diplomatic corps;
his war record, an exceptionally good one,
will make him popular with the soldier
element, while his general suavity of man
ner, lack of arrogance and thorough gen.
tlemanly bearing will make him a prime
favorite with all classes if be should ever
be so fortunate as to become the occupant
of the White House.
But there's the rub. No man, lbe he
ever so good or irreproachable, who may
be nominated by the Republican conven-
ton will ever reach the executive chair ex-
cept by an act of usurpation. But it will
be necessary, nevertheless, for the party to
have a candidate to make the race, and we
are sure no better candidate could be
found than Gen. Fairchild. He is less ham
pered by a record than any other of the
candidates who have been so freely men
toned of late, is a man of good mental
endowments, ripe experience and of
tried honesty. He is, in fact, almost too
good man to be selected for slaughter,
and though he may object to being sacri-
feed, he can be made to see that it is his
duty to submit for the sake of the party
that has treated him so literally for the
past twenty years.

A WASHINGTON correspondent uncovers
an episode in First Assistant P. NJ. G..
Hatton's official deviltry in the following
SIT is certain that Gresham will absolutely
control his department. If HattOn should at
tempt to withhold commission for postmas-
ter, as he did in a New York case under Howe,
Gresham would march him out Of Office in
double-quick time, and without word of ex-
PLANTATION. No subordinate will venture to cut
capers with him.
This fresh young man is filling the air
with expressions of satisfaction at the Sc
lection of Gresham, which are but the thin
gauze of bitter disappointment, though if
he could be believed. he is the happiest
young gentleman in the country. He de-
clares he never asked for the appoint
ment, nor requested friend to do so.
He admits, however, that Justice Miller, of
the Supreme Court, did go to the Presi-
dent to ask for his (Hatton'sl appoint
ment. He is also anxious to
have it understood that some of
the Indiana congressman favored
his appointment, and that he was also the
favorite of some of the Ohio congressman.
If this is true it is fortunate that the new
civil service law forbids congressman,
after July 1, from making recommenda
tons to Office. The congressman who
think Hatton fit for postmaster general
should be Immediately turned out to grass,
and Justice Miller showed what a soft
hearted old Groom he is in going to the
President on such an erran6, In addition
to this alleged support, Mr. Hatton con
fdentially tells his two newspapers, both
daily, that ''there was general movement
in the South il my (his) favor" The more
the country sees of Mr.. Hatton the more it
is Disguised. The assumptions vanity of
the young thing is comical as well as in
siderable.

Concerning the Reduction of Grain Rates

New York, April 17.-In noticing talk
of reducing grain rates, the Tribune of
Wednesday will publish the following: No
action has been taken yet by the trunk
lines to stop cutting the east bound grain
rates by Western railroads. The receipts
of grain at New York are showing a steady
increase from the amount received a few
weeks ago, but the Erie continues to carry
more grain into the city than the NewYork
Central brings to New York. The Lacka-
wanna 81 Western road also maintains
its advantage over the Pennsylvania rail-
way in its New York deliveries. A vote is
now being taken by mail and telegraph
among the roads forming the joint execu-
tive committee on the question of reducing
the grain rate from thirty to twenty-five
cents per hundred pounds on a Chicago
and New York basis. The reduction is op-
posed by the New York Central and Erie
roads, but is warmly advocated by the
Pennsylvania. Many well informed rail-
road men believe the reduction will be
made.

erly receive the fees from the govern
ment, although member of congress, on
the ground that representative is not

he allowed Mr.. Crowley 1864 in one case
where the attorney was engaged eleven

for thirty days, attention to a law suit.
The comptroller made nice distinction
