The report of the National Civil-Scrvlce Re-
form League on the Patent Office draws con-
trast that is wholly favorable to the present Ad-
ministration and precisely the opposite OF favor
able to that over which Mr.. Cleveland presided
An abstract Of the report is presented on an
other page 1t will be seen that neither OF the
Patent Commissioners appointed by PRESIDENT
Cleveland was familiar with patent law and
that general disregard of Civil-Service prlh-
ciples characterized the bureau during the IN
cumbcncy of MessrS. Montgomery and Hail.

President IIarriSons appointcc, commissioner
Mitchell. was the choice of patent lawyers gem
Bankruptcies being wholly diSrcgarded IN the
sclection-and the Office under his direction has
been satisfactorily and efficiently conducted
This is praise worth having, since the League
has no interest in commencing President Iiar-
rison at the expense of his predecessor The
ultra rcformers who believe that there can be
nothing good under this Administration Will
have nothing to say regarding the report on the
Patent Office.

Two weeks ago The Tribune urged upon the
transatlantic steamship companies the importance
Of subordinating the question of speed to that OF
safety, and deprecated anything that looks like
racing at sea, as well the policy Of rushing pcll-
nell at full speed when the ocean is filed with
icebergs. We are gratifed to observe that the
White Star Line has taken counsel of prudence in
the matter. 1t has issued positive orders to the
captains of its steamships to reduce speed by at
least three revolutions of the screw per minute in
order TO show that they are not racing or engaged
in breakneck effort TO cut down the record.'
The practical effect of the order will be 70 engthen
the voyage by about two hours. 1t is hard to
believe that sensible passengers will object TO
that On the contrary, we are confident that they
viii heartily approve il. 1t is, in fact, wise and
prlgent course that this line has adopted, and
the other companies will doubtless find it to their
advantage to follow suit.

of the new system will reveal defects in the law

pish good deal in that direction.

sNEEZERs' CONVENTION.

Although HENRY WARD BEECHER
has passed into an atmosphere where
hay fever is probably unknown, his
fellow-SneezerS who tarry on earth hold
their annual convention regularly. 1t
is to be next month at Bethlehem, Pa.
and hold for full week. The move
ment seems to have lost none of its pop
ularity in the departure of its most dis
tinguished and enthusiastic member.
There are no restrictions now in MEM
bership; all who can JOIN in the nasal
concert are eligible. But it is bona
fide disease, and not a mere Fad of those
who would be of cult. The disciples
of the art do not fully agree as to its in
element, although there is no discord
in its manipulations. The more fire.
ouent view is that the pollen given out
in the latter summer by maturing veg
citation is the cause. This fur
nishes a good reason for going
up in the mountains and get
ting above the pernicious fioater. More
recent medical authorities attribute it
to over-eating and the use of meats,
spices and stimulating elements. The
vegetarian diet is the recourse of such.
Another theory makes it hereditary, a
sort of legacy that can be sneezed at.
1t is like the fever and ague in the early
times in malarial districts. 1t doesn't
often kill people, but it makes them
resigned to give up all terrestrial am
bition and activities. The complaint is
not confined to the East. but the organ
ization supported by it is quite sectional

FEDERAL ELECTION BILL.

That Henry W. Grady has departed
this life would be plainly manifest
even if not we'll known-to any one who
reads the Atlanta Constitutions threat
to boycott" Northern trade if the fed
eral elections bill shall passed by

The force bill that created so much
excitement in the first months of 1875
had this in common with the bill of
1890, that it was wholly unwarranta-
BILE interference with self-government
in the states. Both bills are based upon
the idea. or we should rather say upon
the preteXt, that the internal affairs of
the states may be better regulated from
Washington than by the state legisia-
lures or the people themselves.-Louis-
vile Courier-Journal.
In any view of the case. threats of
boycott are nonsenSieal and childish.
The remedy of the Southern states
against oppression lies in the achieve
ment of their industrial independence
through sound business methods which
will win where emotional clack and
threats fail. The future of the South is
not to be achieved by politicians. It
must be worked out by her business
men, cOolly and calmly. The Westscan

The difficulty with the Southern mem
beers is that they have no valid argu-
ment against the law. 1t does not in
terfere with any rights of a state, for it
deals with elections for federal Offices
only, which are created by the constitu-
ton, and therefore properly under the
control of the national government.
Having no sound reasons, Southern
members are forced to talk twaddle, as
Mr.. Culbertson does, and to assert that
Southern prosperity is of such an alb
normal character that honesty at cleo
tions, fair vote and fair count will

for meeting hereafter at IL a. m and

cussiOn of this order Mr.. ingalls, called
attention by announcing that the senate
intended to pass the election bill. The
bill to transfer the revenue marine to

o'clock, when motion to continue its
discussion to the displacement of the

PATCHING THE FORCE BILL.
Republican Senators Are Modify

Republican Senators Are Modify
ing the Obno xious Measure.
WASHINGTON, July 2S.-The Re- pub
Gus tonight in the senate room, lasting
a little more than two hours, for the
discussion of the order of business in
the senate. The caucus committee APP
pointed to formulate some change IN
the rules, under which the business can
be expedited, was not prepared to make
a report. Mr.. Hoar, the chairman of
the committee on privileges and cleo
tions, stated that the Republican men,
berS of that committee ] ad had under
consideration the Lodge election bill
passed by the house, and had modified
some features, but had not concluded
the discussion of the bill. He said that
prints of the bill as modified had been
distributed among the Republican SEN
tors, and that the Republican members
of the committee were anxious to have
their colleagues make any suggestions
that occurred to them for the further
modification of the bill. The order Of
business was then discussed, the ques-
ton at issue being whether the caucus
should agree to press the consideration
passage of the tariff bill, OF should allow
any other business to intervene. Sew
eral senators expressed disposition to
oppose the immediate consideration of
the election bill in favor of other meas
ures in which they had greater inter-
est, among these measures being the
bill to transfer revenue marine to the
navy department, the bill for the creation
Of land court. etc. AS there was lit
tie more than a quorum of the Republi-
can senators present, it was thought adj
visable TO take no definite action. 1t
was agreed, however. to press the con-
sideration of the tariff bill, and reso-
luton was adopted providing for the
meeting of the senate at 10o'clock each
morning, beginning Wednesday, the
tariff bill to be taken up Immediately
after the morning business. Opinions
expressed as to the possibility of pass
ing the tariff bill in the near future
differed. The average estimate of time
was four weeks, and the general i'm
preston seemed to be that the bill
would not be completed until Sept.
l. Senator Frye was authorized to
call up the river and harbor bill at any
time.
