A patent strikes most people as cd aCpali-
ingly formidable thing. The idsa is that an
inventor must be n natural genius like Edi-
son or Bell; that he must devote years TO
delving in complicated mechan cal problems
and that he must spend fortune on de.icate
experiments before he can got now devie9

Comparatively few people regard them

has been struck, at enc time or another
with ideas that seemed calculated to raIucl

such ideas are dismissed without further

BARRE, Aug. 9.-The "Grauits City"
| begins to feel the effect of the financial cit
uation. The granite firms he'd largely
attended meeting Tuesday night to discuss
the situation and tho advisabity of shut

cal banks stated to the dealers that 1t would
| bo impossible to secure currency, and that
| unless relief was soon afforded it would be
necessary to suspend cash payments.
This morning many dealers informed
| their cutters OF the condition and told them
they could work and get their pay
when the mnn ufacturers have the cash,
otherwise they would have to leave their
work. Some members o: the union claim
that such an arrangement cannot be made
without vote of tbs local union, while
ma iority say thoy will stand by the dealers.

In this official document. that au amend m emit
to the Federal Constitution be adopted inhibt-

These Commissioners were not authorized to
take up question OF this kind. or to give ad-
vice to Congress about legislation upon the
subject Of marriage. or to make any recon-
