"Now WHAT is home rule? Why. it Is
that which every State and Territory of
the United States enjoys, and what
Ireland doesn't enjoy. "-Jas. G. Blaine.
Mr.. Blaine will have to make an OK
ception at least OF the Territory OF Utah.
Let no one say that this Territory for
the past few years has enjoyed the
blessings of home rule or local self
government. The form may have been
preserved, but the substance. the thing
itself. is not here; and if this new in
fanny proposed by the House judiciary
committee on Saturday shall become
law, even the shadow of home rule for
Utah will be swept away. But then
some new American Gladstone viii
arise and move in the Congress Of the
United States home rule for Utah. in
the shape of Statehood, and the home
rule bill win not be defeated.

IRIS the right degree OF courage which
Senator Kenna displays. When asked
10 accept the Craftsmanship OF the Dem
ocratic Congressional committee, he
hesitated and intimated desire TO be
excused upon the ground that his phi
vale affairs required all his atten-
ton. While holding the matter under
advisement the Republican papers said
his real reason for not accepting
the position was to be found in the be-
lief that there would be too general
slaughter Of Democrats at the polls next
fall, and he did not care to be in posi-

A DOUBT on PATENTS.
snd not 70 indiTidusls.

The telephone investigation has
brought out many matters that have a
decidedly ugly appearance. and reflect
ing severely on the characters of many
officials and private citizens; but the
exposure that is the most startling Is
that showing the crookedness which
prevailed in the Patent Office. 1t was
largely on the confessions of one Zenas
Fisk WILDER that the inquiry was
entered upon. He was for long time
an employee of the Patent Office, hold
ing the position OF examiner of lin
references" a most important place
and one requiring strict integrity
IN the incumbent, for il was in
his power 20 take advantage of his
knowledge TO help or injure
inventors. WILDER has made many
statements indicating Irregularities.
and his latest affidavit, just published,
is simply startling in the exposure it
makes of corruption. There is rule of
the Office forbidding the borrowing of
money from patent attorneys, but VIII
Der declares that he was N the habit OF
violating the rule. and would in various
ways favor the attorneys who loaned
him money; he swears that for
direct bribe in cash he showed: Mr.. Bell
Professor Gray's caveat, which enabled
the former to so amend his own claim
as to include the telephone in a pat
ent intended to be for multiple
telegraphy; it also gave Bell
priority of claim to which
Gray was entitled. It is of little mo-
ment, except in this telephone case,
whether or not WILDER has committed
perjury in this afidaYit; ne proves that
a most important branch of the public
service was under the control of a cor
rupt scoundrel, who not emily profited
by his corruption, but $50 may have
wrought incalculable financial injury
to inventors and the people. He swears
that he was false to his trust in this
audit is only reasonable and
natural to assume that he was not
honest in other cases; and as the just
of his Office depended
upon his integrity, diligence and honor. |
doubt is cast upon every electrical or
telephone patent issued while WILDER
vas the examiner. Government wonld |
be justified, upon proper application.
IN making an inquiry into the merits !
Of any other patent issued upon the
of the self-confessed
WILDER.

growing eloquent about the wrongs Of
Ireland to secure the votes OF her sons
on this side Of the ocean. But the Nor
mon can't influence a Presidential cleo

an ingenious little contriYsnce, not
long since, for sharpening scissors and

useful, and every housewife in the
land should have one as it does away
with the botheFsome scissors grinder
