The Telephone Contention.

The bill of complaint in the suits
brought by the government to annul
the Bell telephone patents, allege that
certain letters patent issued to Alex
ander Graham Bell, dated March z,
1876, numbered ia, 465, were illegal
ly and improperly procured to be is
sued by reason of certain facts there
after more fully set forth, and that al
though up to the time of issuing said
patent, Bell had never been, in fact,
able to transmit articulate speech by
the method, or by the apparatus de-
scribed in his application, he purpose
" framed his application and claim, in
broad and general terms, in order to
cover both antecedent and future in
ventions; and to deceive the examin-
ers of the patent Office and the public,
did not set forth that his alleged in
vention had any relations to the art
of transmitting articulate speech by
means of electricity /; but entitled it an
application for an improvement in te-
egraphy; and made special reference
to the recent application made by him
self for a method of multiple telegra-
ply and treated his alleged new inven-
Jon as another method thereof; and |
set forth the advantages which it had
over the others, but did not include
Or mention its capacity, or claim for
{ any capacity, to transmit speech.
Then follows a multitude of allega-
ions in the same general direction,
and others citing previous applica-
tons by other persons, covering the
involved. The bill closes
with voluminous prayer for thS an
nulment of the patent.

they have watched its growth and it's
influence on the consum ers, and what
conclusion has the Northwestern Life
Insurance Company of Milwaukee
come to? Knowing all about the
healthfulness of lasser-beer, it has
come to the conclusion that, for its
own sake, for the protection of it's
own business, it can 10 longer grant
life insurance policy to lager-beer
brewer, no matter whether he should
be ostensibly temperance man or
not. They will not grant policy to
a lager-beer brewer, to his clerk, to
his book-keeper, or to any man en-
ployed in lager-beer brewery. Why !?
They say: because, you know, you
never get good glass of fresh water
TO drink around a brewery, and our
statistics that we have accumulated
not as the outgrowth of fanaticism,
not because we pity the widows and
orphans, but because we pity our own
depleted treasury that our bus
mess has been injured by the short
ened lives of these men who drink
lager-beer." In my opinion there is
no stronger argument than this against
the evil influences of INDUCING in this
lager-beer, or in any alcoholic stimu-
liant. lfthe life insurance companies
that are familiar with this subject have
come to this conclusion, what must not
all sensible men conclude who have a
regard for their strength, vigor and
length of days ?-Address Of Father

BRADsTREETS.--Br adstreet's, the week.

and stands at the head of all the finan-

issued can be found more original and
carefully prepared matter = facts and

can be found in any other periodical for
the same period. Nor is it surprising
that it has reached and maintains this

branch offices, and its small army of over
1900 salarled employees and 5000 regu-
lar correspondents. This ORGANIZATION
makes extensive Investigations into in
dustrlal and other matters, gathers full
reports of the condition and prospects
OF the leading crops, and exhibits regu-
larry the state OF business, practically
making hadstreet's the authority as to
the condition and prospects of the com

at the newspapers to satisfy any one that
It's publishers have been ambitious more
than avarIclous, for in no way are its
pages made up to cater to the popular
taste or to serve the purposes of loud or
inSinuating advertisers. No trivial or
sensational matters are ever to be found
in its columns, but the whole 900 large
pages a year are solidly packed with
news, reports, discussions, decisions and

ceptable and almost indispensable Jour

Worn Out with Hard Work.

Recent reports from Washington
state that Secetary Manning is a
very sick man, and that the public
have been misled as to the facts. As
is the custom here when a prominent
official is seriously i'll, resourse is had
to mystery and equivocation. There
is the best authority for the statement
that Sectary Manning has had a
stroke of apoplexy, and that the
physicians are very apprehensive as
to his condition. His leg gave away
when he was struck, and the sprained
ankle report, is clumsy devise sent
out to explain the illness. Friends
of Secretary Manning think that it
will be necessary for him, in order to
recuperate his exhausted energies, to
retire from public life, at least for a
year or two. He is simply worn out
with hard and constant work, contin-
ued through night and day ever since
the new administration came. Secre-
tary Manning came into the cabinet
reluctantly. He knew and feared the
exacting duties of the position. His
fears have been more than realized.
In these circumstances it is not
strange that his friends think he will
retire from the cabinet within the next
six months. AS soon as he is able,
they say, he will probable go to Fort
Monroe, or some other resort for
health seekers. and will probably be
in Washington very little afterward
until he retires from the cabinet,
which they think will be about the 1st
of September. In the meantime,
Assistant Secretary Fairchild will act
as Secretary of the Treasury. Mr..
Fairchild, it is thought, will be Secre-
tary Manning's successor when the
resignation takes effect. Mr.. Fair
child is an able lawyer, of excellent
judgment, quick and comprehensive
perception, untiring industry and
great capacity for affairs. He is so
years old, and in vigorous health.
During the time that he has been in
the treasury department. he has thor
oughly mastered the duties of his of
fee, and has shown himself to be fit
for higher trust.

on the surface, are attracting atten-

is the proposed railway tunnel through

has been signed by the Franco-Span-

Some men can't bear to see any,
body successful. Some people seem
to be jealousy embodied. They are
so selfish that they hate everybody
who is above them, and kick every
body who is below them. They will
forgive anything sooner than superb
ority; and, incapable of any self-de-
NAL or nobility themselves, they are
incapable of believing in goodness in
anybody else. These men always
lead in the work of sowing suspicion,
rumor and distrust. When they see
a head they hit it, especially if it is
ahead. They never say any good of
anybody, for they are themselves in
capable of goodness and what man
can't be himself, he has small faith
can exist in another. Hannah as nat
urally hates Mordecai as the devil

The margin between promising and
performance begins to attract the at
tention of the Western railway postal
clerks. Soon after Postmaster Gen
eral Villas was installed in office, he
announced that there would be no re-
movals made in the railway service
for partisan reasons, and later re-
peated the promise in circular to the
clerks. Notwithstanding this assur-
ance, the work of decapitation has
been constantly going on, and of those
running out from Chicago, Cincinnati,
Columbus, Indianapolis, Pittsburg,
and st. Louis, 100 were discharged
at once the other day. There are
about $500 of these clerks connecting
with these cities who threaten a sud-
den strike unless Mr.. Villas returns to
keep his word.

Proclamation by the Governor.

In every act of life we find the proofs
of Gods Wisdom overriding the plans OF
men, and shaping the destinles OF States
and Nations for the advancement and
happiness of the human family. WITH
out the recognition of His goodness ana
power i'm all our endeavors, the lives OF
men and the continuance of governments
would prove abortive of all good. lt Is
fitting, therefore, that the people OF thls
Christian State, in humble acknoWleuge-
ment of the well.known laws OF COO IN
His dealings with His children, should at
all times and under all circumstances,
and especially at this season OF the year
to accord with the usages of New Eng
land which have established and made
hallowed an annual fast, turn aside from
their ordinary duties and pleasures, ana,
in due humility, confess their dependence
upon His strength and mercy for the
blessings He has so beautifully vouch-
safed.
l do. therefore, appoint Friday, the 9th
day of April next, as day of fasting,
humiliation and prayer.
May the people of this State turn their
hearts and minds toward God as the
fountain of all good, and unitedly i'm
plore forgiveness of our sins. Let US
dedicate our lives in sincere conservation
to Him, and earnestly supplicate con-
tinuance of His divine favor and protec-
ton.
Let us implore comfort for the afflicted,
relief for the distressed and hope for those
who are oppressed or in despair.
Let us invoke the blessings of per-
feet standard of justice between our tel
low men, that integrity and honor, a high
morality and pure religious sentiment
may pervade the lives of all; that He
may continue to protect us from the raw
ages of pestilence and plague, and from
disaster and danger; that the blessings
OF peace and civil and religious freedom
may abide with US; that the evils OF IN
temperance, ignorance and every source
of social disorder may be averted from
US; that the work of our lives may be
more jealous in the promotion of educa-
ton, benevolence and charity.
To these and kindred ends | recon-
mend that all our people on that day alb
stain from unnecessary labor, recreation
and amusement, and assemble in thelI
houses of worship and consecrate the
day to such public and private services
as may be befitting its religious obserV-
ance throughout the State.
