MANY partisans are urging that
Gresham's policy is dictated by hatred
for Harrison. That suggests the inquiry
"Who loves Mr.. HarrisonY' There is not
a Republican Of national reputation who
does not either dislike his ways or hate
him personally. We all remember that
for the f,st time in the history Of the
country Secretary Of State-the great

How could Secretary Gresham, who
is every inch man, love the

party associates either tolerate or des-
pise. OF course, Secretary Gresham hates
the man who sneaked into Honolulu to
overthrow an insignificant Kanaka
Queen. II this country should determine

OF course, tits urged. vehemently, that
Mr. Gresham hates Mr., Harrison. How
could Mr.. Gresham do otherwise than
hate a man who would approve such a
bill as the Sherman Silver Purchase law
and then, viewing the deficit Ia the
Treasury, the wreck and ruin It has
made in finance, industry and commerce,
glibly explain that IL was "a temporary
expedient" merely-a bargain with the
money devil to save the Western states

with the wages of the tia bucket

shan or fraud. Mr.. Harrison knew
the nature, the effect and the purpose Of
that Sherman Silver Purchase bill at
the time he put his approval upon it, or
he did not. II he did not his states
manship Is a sham; II he did know,
he was guilty Of fraud upon the people
for his personal aggrandizement Mr.
Gresham is not the man TO love that sort

more pretentious his character the
more Mr. Gresham must hate the man,

lr is seldom that a suit against a news
prper prospers. IL is usually the result
of mans petty spite or a lawyers dis
creditable speculation This, of course
does not apply to every ase. 1t applies
to the majority, however Consider
ing the number of details published by a
modern newspaper, the vast extent of it's
purview of comment, the short time in
which the matter must be prepared, the
accuracy Of the average newspaper is a
greater marvel than Edison, greater
benefit to mankind than Bessemer steel.
These comments are pertinent to the
announcement that Henry Labouchere,
Of the London Truth, has been successful
in defense Of the suit instituted as a
punishment, or as speculation, for an
exposure Of the methods of home for In
ebrlate women. The exposure was public
duty I'm the interest of humanity. The
charges were true. Had they not been
true the persons exposed would not have
brought suit They would have invited
an exposure Of the truth and thus ex-
posed the editor. This is the policy Of
all honorable men who are conscious Of
their integrity and who are wise enough
to rely implicitly upon the Judgment and
good sense Of the people This is the
method Mr. Massey, Senator Gray and
this paper adopt with the scurrilous
writers here who are attempting to raise
themselves into notice by rendering
themselves too contemplate to be
noticed Lsbouehere's paper is some.
times too radical, but nobody ever
charged that he was dishonest and dis.
honorable much less that he was fool
enough to take a brlbe. Those who
write scurrilous articles are either
one or the other, from the neces.
sity Of the case.

PATENTS.
NotIoe to InYentnra.

There was never time in the history
Of our country when the demand for in
ventions and Improvements in the arts
and sciences generally was so great as
now. The conveniences of mankind in
the factory and work shop, the household,
on the farm, and in official life require
continual accessions to appurtenanoes
and implements Of each in order to save
labor, time and expense The yolitical
change In the administration of govern
ment does not affect the progress of the
American inventor, who, being on the
alert, and ready TO perceive the existing
deficiencies, does not permit the af.
fairs Of government to deter him from
quickly conceiving the remedy TO over
come existing discrepancies. Too great
care can not be exercised in choosing a
competent and skilful attorney to pre-
pare and prosecute an application for
patent. Valuable interests have been
lost and destroyed in innumerable in.

There is protection to the

always to make the most fa-
vorable prices.
Our usual and ordinary
prices will give you vastly bet
ter bargains than can be had

the consignor has all the pro-

The same is true of the al

dealing is an unknown factor.
All that is the ordinary case.
Here isan extraordinary one:
Every Oriental Rug in our

largely reduced from the al
ready low price, which was as
low as wholesale rates-lower,
very likely.
