one OF the party again. Yesterday IN oroau
daylight he went forth to cut dash
among some of the frail inmates of one OF
the mansions Of sin on Thirteenth street.
He met somebody there whom he DIDN'T
| like and he determined to "clesn him out"
But in an effort to carry out his determine
ton he proved to be too slender, He was
bruised up considerably about the head.
Officer McTigue arrested him and Msgis'
trsts Comings fined him IS and costs, for
which he gave security. The night before
two other members of the unhallowed fra
ternity, named Msgnsr and Hardy, became
unlawfully demonstrative in their behavior
at the same house. Like Csvin they first
attacked young fellow who was at the
door before them and then broke in the
door. They will probably be made to
answer to-day. These young fellows seem
to have little or no self-respect, and that is
perhaps nobody's business but their own;
but they seem also to entertain very little
respect for the law and its representatives,
and for public decency and peace, which is
everybodys business. 1t is one Of the glor-
ious privileges of this great and glorious
country, that any one who chooses may
wallow with the swine In the mire, provided
he wsllows so as not to offend or disturb his
fellows. But there are some young fellows
here, as everywhere, no doubt, who seem to
be determined to attract public attention
by enacting the parts of dlssolute
rowdies. They will probably ere long DO
cured of this banefull propensity.
Since the 1st of January the firm OF
Lancaster s. Rice was changed to the Lam
caster & Rice Lumber and Mannfactur.
ing company, with capital stock of $lO,-
900. Incorporation papers were applied
for and have in part arrived. When all shall
have been received the company will be or
gsuized by the election of president, secre-
tary, treasurer, etc. Messrs. Lancaster &
Rice have for some time been conducting
ono Of the large industrial establishments in
the city and their business, always large,
grew so rapidly during the last year that =
different organization was deemed necessary
to oversee and conducted it with needed dis
patch. The company now runs one Of the
largest lumber yards in the city, planning
mill and extensive door and sash factory.
1t employs constantly an architect to make
estimates on contracts of various kinds, and
Q force OF mechanics to execute the con-
tracts. Its business extends over all the
railroads centering here up and down the
rivers and it has now under full Roadway
what will be, when finished, the finest pub
lie building in the city, the Stafford Memor-
isl Library. Under the new organization it
will probably continue to rapidly increase
Its business and facilities for carrying it on.

The Post in recent issue makes the
claim that the success Of our manufac-
turing industries and tho cheapening of
manufactured articles is due to the in
Vention of labor-saving machinery rather
than the tariff, and that the inventors are
entitled TO all the credit Admitting for
the sake of argument, that this is true
where does the democratic party stand
then? Has ii been the friend and en-
Courager of inventors and inventions ?
Lot the record answer;
There has been nothing that the demo-
crats in congress could do TO injure
inventors that they have not done. In
1877 tho railway monopolists united and
sent their agents and lobbyists to the
capital to press the passage ofa bill which
would virtually destroy tho patent sys-
TEN, which has been the great promoter
of inventions, and nearly every democrat
supported the measure, At every session
of congress from that time down to last
winter scores OF bills have been intro
duced, mainly in the house, which, If
passed, would deprive a patentee Of all
means of protecting his invention, and
of course check the spirit of invention, if
not destroy it, by removing tho incentive
TO industry. In every instance these
bills were advocated and supported by
democrats, led by such men rs Aiken,
Blackburn. Blount, Cox, Townshend,
Springer, and Reagan, in the house, ana
Cockroll, Voorhees,, and Vest, of thosonate,
Everything, no matter what its nature
or character, which in any manner
tended to strike down the protection
given by the law to inventors has been
porsistently championed by tho great
majority Of tho democratic members and
Benators.
Ever since Mr.. Kerr was made speaker
tho appropriations for tho patent Office
have been cut down TO the lowest possible
National Republican., 1884-10-07

limit, Notwithstanding the fact that thoro
is in the treasury surplus of over two
and a half millions TO tho credit Of tho
patent office, which annually turns a large
sum into tho national treasury, after pay
ing its running expenses. Every dollar
Of that money is in tho nature of special
tax paid by the inventors and manufac-
turers interested in patents. and who con-
tribute their full proportion of tho ex-
ponso of tho government in addition like
other citizens; and yet the democrats in
congress for the past ten years have per-
sistently refused TO lot tho Office have
enough Of its oiVn funds TO enable it to do
its work properly or promptly. Tho office
is to-day nearly year behind in its work,
simply because tho democrats in con-
gress will not let it have enough OF its
own funds to employ help that is abso-
lutely necessary to properly dispose of
current business. For ten years the mat
ter of appropriations for the patent Office
has boon taken entirely out of the hands
Of tho house patent committee and trans
ferred to the committee on appropria-
tions, which, under the lead Of Randall
and his associates has persistently Grip
plc cd the service in every way possible,
under tho the democratic plea Of econ
omy."
Said Mr.. Springer before the committee
on patents four years ago, IL went to
Speaker Kerr when he was making up
the committees and insisted that he should
mako the committee on patents an iron.
clad committee; that is, one that should
be opposed to all extensions and all favors
to inventors"
The opposition of tho democrats to
everything favoring inventions WAS still
bcttor expressed by southern democrat
who was for six years momber Of the
committee ON patents. Said be to friend
one day while standing in the committee
room. "You 500 l have voted against
every case that has been before the com
mittee since have been on it, and this is
now my fourth year"
YES" replied the friend, II notice you
have, and sometimes | thought very un-
justly, for you have worked great hard
ships to some very worthy inventors"
"Well," said he, "I'll tell you about
that. You see, we don't mako many in.
ventions down south, and we don't manu-.
facture these patented articles down
there, md therefore whatever royalty Is
paid to these patentees is so much paid to
the d--d Yankees; and, by -, I'm agin
that ~
These words very correctly express the
general sentiments of southern domo-
Gratis and their northern allies. With a
few individual exceptions the democrats
in congress have arrayed themselves
squarely in hostility to tho system ol
promoting and encouraging invention
1t has been in tho past, and is to-day, n:
bitterly opposed to the protection of in
ventors as it is to the protection of labor
The two go hand in hand.

RriIIinnt Mr.. Cleveland.

CleVeland's organs arc scattering the
following sentepce from his Buffalo
speech through their columns, italic type
being used to signify that it is weighty,
wise, and important:
The character of the government can hardly
rise higher than the source from which 1t
springs, and the integrity and faithfulness of
public servants are not apt to be greater than
the people demand.
What amazing originality! What
transcendent wisdom What profound
statesmanship! What a mighty grasp!
What brilliancy! Tho author should
have given it to the world in brokon
doses. There was great danger in precipi-
tating such an enormous chunk Of idea
upon the public without warning. Tho
consequences of such recklessness might
have been direful.
"The character Of the government can
hardly rise higher than the source from
which II springs" Why didn't somebody
think of that before? None but the
mightiest intellect could conceive such q
wonderful thought There is simple
grandeur in the sentiment that stamps its
author as the most remarkable genius Of
his age.
That other thought produced by the
same master mind recently is equally
worthy of note as showing the astonish-
ing versatility of the man. Wo have
reference to tho extraordinary state
ment that president of tho United
States is merely sort of executive clerk,
powerless for good or for evil. 1t seems
almost incredible that two such prodig-
Gus thoughts could come from single
human brain, yet we have evidence
that Gov. Cleveland is responsible for
both. His friends should restrain him.
No constitution can stand the strain of q
volley of ideas of that magnitude.
Presently the great man will bo deliv-
cred of new idea, and the people may
expect any minute to hear him advance
the proposition that bird in tho hand
beats a bob-tail flush, or something
equally sensational or sublime.

.-rroteetlon for eTruck,, Farmer.

II
or late years truck farming" has be-
come an important and leading industry
along the south Atlantic coast. About
Norfolk and tho leading ports from
thence south to Florida, thousands of far.
mers make comfortable income from rails
ing vegetables and fruits for the northern
markets. For their produce raised early
in the year, when the northern fields are
!, yet bleak and snowy, they receive high
,,,.. ices, and make very lucrative per
or!aula Si-proft. Probably, but o very
small proportion of these farmers are
aware of the fact that goodly share OF
their gain made in this way is directly
owing to the operations of the republi-
can protective tariff, yet such is the
case. Remember, tho Bahama and West
India islands, with their cheap labor,
warm climate, and rich soils raise all tho
products spoken of in profusion, and are
competitors with our truck" farmers in
all the northern markets. But tho pres
ent tariff compels them to pay duty of
fifteen cents per bushel upon potatoes and
from ten to thirty-fvo per cent. sd valo.
rem upon all other vegetables. But for
this protection tho truck" farmers of
Virginia and the states south would have
to take for their produce as much less
than the prices they now receive as these
duties amount to. The republican tariff
gives them direct protection and a
direct profit of twenty-five per cent,
average. 1t is worth while for these
