ONE OF THE sELF-IMPosED LIMITATIONS
of the existing Congress is prehgured
in the decision Of the Committee on
Patents that no measure having in
the extension of the lifetime of patent
shall be considered While there may
be no grave objection to the garnering
of large fortune by the deyisor Of a
useful improvement, there are serious
and manifold reasons why the possible
benefits of such an idea should not be
peddled out among a few favored or
lucky stockholders Of a concern organ
izod to exploit the original inventors
brains. 1t is high time to call halt TO
the tendency Of Monopoly to absorb
the wealth Of civilization by the simple
process of absorbing the results of in
ventive genius: which should inure
somewhat to tho benefit of the people
among whom they attain full fruition.

The FOLLOWING FROM AN EXCHANGE ARE
a few lines of very good advice for the
people of every town:
"If you would increase your happi-
ness and prolong your life, forget your
neighbor's faults. Forget the tempta-
tions. Forget the fault-fnding, and
give little thought to the cause which
provoked it. Forget the peculiarities
of your friends, and not only remem-
Der the good points that make you fond
of them. Forget all personal quarrels
Of histories that you have heard by ac-
cident, which, if repeated would seem
a thousand times worse than they are.
Blot out as far as possible all the dis
agreeables of life. They will come, but
they will only grow larger if you re-
member them, and the constant
thought of the acts of meanness, or,
worse still, malice, will only tend to
make you more familiar with them,
Obliterate everything disagreeable
from yesterday, start out with a clean
sheet for to-day, and write upon it for
sweet memory's sake only those things
that are lovely and lovable."

The UNITED STATES SUPREME CoUR7
has decided the case brought by the
governments of Great Britain and
Canada, known as the Sayward case
to test the right of tho United States
to exercise exclusive jurisdiction ovei
the seal fisheries of Bering Sea. The
decision is in favor Of the United
States, the application for a writ ol
prohibition against the Alaska Court
being denied. The political aspects OF
the case we're not directly decided, but
the court intimated that the judicial
tribunals should not interfere with
claims of territorial sovereignty made
by another department OF the govern
ment.

The CONDITION OF THE ROADS IS A PER
tinent question at this season of the
year, and any man, it matters not what
his pursuit in life is, who opposes the
adoption of any intelligent and practi
cal system that will lead to the making
and maintaining of better roads, is blind
to his own interest and to the interest
of the public. It absolutely costs more
in inconvenience, time ard money to
travel over a miserably bad road, than
it does over good one. The expendi
ture of hundred of dollars to place q
road in good condition is decidedly
cheaper in the end than to leave it re
main from year to year public NOR
tar bed. For the first year or two the
outlay would be necessarily quite an
item, but after that the expense would
be comparatively small It matters
not what the cost may be, the convent
ence and the increase in property will
be more than equivalent to the origi-
nal outlay.
