TO INVENTORS.

If you have made an invention you want 8
patent. And you want good one. There are
various kinds of patents Some of them are
not worth keeping around the house. They
don't protect. 1t is as unsafe to trust to them
as to lightning rod without a ground con-
nection. That is the kind an inventor is like
ly to get when he draws up his own specif1ca-
tionS. or trusts the work to an irresponsible
attorney. It is not the kind dealt in by the
Press Claims Company.

trust the Republican party with the
power to rip up the tariff question and
unsettle all business while they repeal
the present tariff and restore Mckinley
ism with all that it implies of robbery
and extortion. Some of their leaders,
like ex-President Harrison, are sharp
enough to conceal the designs of the
party, but their greatest champion,
Governor Mckinley, openly proclaims
that they propose to repeal the Demo
cratic tariff if given the power. And
what are they fighting for if not for
this? If they were to drop the tariff
issue they would lose the support and
money of the protected manufacturers
which is the source of the strength and
the very life of the party. We must
repeat, the Republicans are not to be
trusted with the power to NEEDLE with
the tariff. Whatever they may protest
before election, they will be compelled
by the law of their being to revise the
tariff in the interest and at the dicta-
ton of the trusts and monopolies of the
country, which have, by their contri
button to Republican campaign funds,
