sit seems to me that this patent is the
reductio ad absurdum of the patent sys-
tenn of the United States" said Judge
HUGHES, IN his certified opinion to the
supreme court, and he was right about it.
The necessity for protecting useful in
yentions by patent is unquestioned. but
there should certainly be some limita-
tatlon to the issuance of these letters
patent. The patent Office as now admin
istered is little more than patent bro
kerage. and seems to be run exclusively
in the interest of the patent attorneys.
The fault lies mainly in the patent laws,
which permit latitude in the admins
tration of the Office unwarranted by
public exigencies. The idea of the time
of the supreme court of the United
States being occupied with case of the
nature above mentioned is all the more
absurd when we recall how many cases
of real importance and consequence
were showed aside to give place to this
case that would have disgraced the
docket Of township justice. 1t is
surely time that congress was giving its
attention to a revision of the patent
laws.

CHICAGO. Dec. 20.-Western and
Southwestern freight rates are to be
restored on Jan. 1. This was the I'M
derstanding arrived at by the meeting
of the general managers of the lines in
the territory of the Western Freight as
ISOLATION to-day. and official notice was
given by all the interested roads of their
intention to enforce tariff rates on and
after the first day of the year. The
principal reductions have been in the
rates on packing house products and
live stock, which has been demoraliZed
for several months. These will be ad-
yanced to the basis of 25 cents on pack
ing house products and 20 cents on live
hogs from Kansas City to Chicago. and
37]15 cents and 20 cents, respectively,
from Omaha. The rate on lumber from
Chicago to Southwestern Missouri river
points was advanced 21s cents to 16
cents. The amended form of agree
ment reported by the committee ap-
pointed at a previous session was adopt
ed. 1t provides that in addition to the
penalty already prescribed any road
found guilty of cutting rates shall di-
vide with its competitors the excess of
freight earnings accruing to it on that
account. 1t also gives the chairman au-
thority to assess penalties without call
ing meeting of the association.

PATENT Laws.

Laws protecting inventions were
originally passed, and the patent Office
bureau established, for wise purpose.
But. like everything else designed for
good purposes, the patent Office has
been subjected TO so many abuses that
the whole system has been brought into
disrepute. We need go no farther for
evidence OF the diSreputable state of
affairs connected with the govern
ment'S system for granting patents
than the case argued before the SUI
preme court of the United States
at Washington, day or two age,
where the learned Judges devoted a
whole day listening to argumentson the
alleged infringement of a patent for re-
enforcement of the seat and crotch in
mems drawers. The whole thing was
SO absurd that even the judges unbent
their dignity and gave vent to their APP
probation of the righteousness of the
scene. The circuit judge from whose
court the case had been appealed had
given a tinge of Judicial ridicuie to the

THE sUaKIM AFFAIR.

The only moral of the Suakim affair
is that numbers count for but little
against discipline, and that, no matter
how heavy the odds may be, the supe-
rior race will come out victor ia contest
with an inferior one. Beyond the re-
newed demonstration of these facts. the
Suakim battle has no special interest
except that the result will defeat Lord
RANDOLPH CHUBCHHL'S ambition to
be at the head of the British ministry.
SALIsBURY's continued supremacy was
staked on victory at Suakim, and if the
Arabs had defeated the British force he
would have been succeeded by CHURCH
Ill. Thus, what would only have been
little skirmish in American warfare
is made potent factor in the destinies
of the British empire.

SENSIBLE RAILROAD TALK.

After listening to CHARLES FRANCIS
ADAMS assertion that the railroads OF
the country are moving rapidly toward
some great system of consolidation, and
TO Mr.. HUNTINGToN's prediction that
he will live to see the day when there
will be only one railroad in the United
States. it is absolutely refreshing TO
listen 20 a sensible talk on railroad mat
tiers by a sensible man like IL. III.
PORTER, the well-knOwn railroad di-
rector. In late communication TO the
Chicago Tribune, Mr.. PORTER, whose
experience as a railroad builder. man
ager and large stakeholder in leading
Western lines qualities him to speak in
diligently, discusses the topic now up
permost in railroad circles in such
moderate and fair-lninded manner as to
arrest attention and give weight to
his utteranceS. He recognizes the ne
eessity for interstate commerce laws,
as much to protect railroad managers
against each other as to protect the
pubIic against companies who are dis
posed to fix eXtortionate rates. He be-
lieyes that railroad managers. as 4 class,
do not mean to be unjust to the people;
nor do the people, as whole, mean to
Inc unjust towards the railroads. But,
in a lengthy review of the growth
of the railroad system, he points
out the conditions which have
arisen by reason of the competition
in railroad building that tempt
both the managers and the people
| to adopt extreme and unreasonable
measures, The trouble is that in the
race of competition the railroads of the
country generally have no proper terri
| tory of their own, and have about the
| same relations to each other that in a
| game of jackstraws one straw has to
the other when dropped from the child's
hand-all tangled up-and thus the
work of operating these roads and MAIN
tanning just relations to each other be-
comes well nigh impoSsible. lie believes
that All amendment to the present inter
state commerce law is practicable which
would help to disentangle and get
out of chaos the present con-
dltions, and at the same time
give to the public the fullest
guaranty of protection. His PROPOSE
4 ton is to authorize the interstate com
4 mission 10 fix maximum rates, and also
permit railroad corporations 10 agree
with each other in adjustments of traffic
on such terms as are first approved by
| the commission. This would be in ef-
| feet make the interstate commission a
| court of equity, to do justice between
| the railroads as whole and the public,
as well as between the different rail-
| roads themselves.

Injunction Cases Dismissed.

DIES MONIES. To-, Dee. 20.-In the
supreme court eday, the injunction
cases against the Chicago, Rock Island
& Pacific, and the Burlington, Cedar
Rapids & Northern railroads, were dis
missed. These cases were brought to
restrain the railway commissioners
from inforcing their schedule of rates,
and Judge Fairall granted permanent
injunction, the commissioners appeal
ing. Afterwards they modified their
schedule, and when the roads moved
for and obtained dismissal of the
cases before Judge Fairali, upon the
ground that the schedule having been
abandoned, there was no longer
necessity for restraining order. The
commissioners opposed the dismissal,
trying to obtain an opinion as TO the
reasonableness of the schedule. but the
courts say they are not called upon to
determine the reasonabieness of thing
that does not exist, and as the roads
have paid the costs, the cases are dis
