Moscow, Oct. 20.-The grand popu-
list rally Monday evening was the
only political event of any Importance
during the week. Next week prom
ises more. Thursday evening, October
25 Edgar Wilson of Boise, the repub-
lican nominee for congress, will
speak. Mr.. Wilson spent Tues
day night in the city, and left
Wednesday, accompanied by II. T.
Morgan, for Idaho and Nez Perez
county appointments. The populists
on Saturday evening, October ~, will
listen 10 Judge Clagett. his second
speech in Moscow during the cam
paign. Congressman Sweet, who has
beeu for nearly month in southern
Idaho, will speak in Kendrick, it Is
stated. this evening. and then go to the
more northern counties.
There has been no apparent change
in the feelings of con tidence on the
part OF republicans or populists during
the week. The republicans are salts
fled with their poll of the county, Civ
ing them good majority. An especial
reason for their confidence is the fact
that at the election two years ago fully
700 voters did not make th5ir appear
ance at the polls. The majority of
these were believed to be republicans,
and the party leaders will use every
possible effort to bring out the full vote.
The populists have always claimed the
county, and do not modify their CLAIMS.
They point to Mondays rally as proof
of the party's strength.

A SANG FOR COXEY.
The Law Against Assemblaees on the
Capitol Steps.


There is one circumstance which may in
terfere with the main feature of Gen. CoXy S
announced program at Washington. 1t has
been stated that the object of his bringing
his army here is to assemble on the steps
of the Capitol on the 1st Of May, for the
purpose of impres3inG its views upon Con-
gress. To do this it will be necessary to first
secure authority from Congress- as there are
specific acts upon the Statute books for
bidding the assemblage of crowds in the
Capitol or on the Capitol grounds, or the
holding of any sort of public meeting except
the sessions of Congress, and the assem-
blages which are incident to the Inaugural
ton of the President. These laws go to the
extent of rorbidding organized parades
through the Capitol grounds. The law Is
also very strict in regard to the invasion of
the grounds, and when societies are given
permission to march through them, they are
required TO keep strictly upon the walks
ana driveways. Only on the occasion Of in
ausurations are people permitted to overrun
the grounds
inere is no place near the Capitol avail
abie Tor Mr.. Coxey's purposes and II he
should be refused permission for the as
sembage of his followers on the Capitol
steps, which can only be granted by a
special act or Congress, the proceedings
would not probably make so great an i'm
preston upon Congress as they are intend
ed to be.
That the necessary consent for the use
OF the Capitol grounds could be obtained for
thls purpose is considered extram ely doubt
iui; congress has always shown itself very
Jealous of the general use of the CAPITOL
buildings and grounds and 1t would proba-
piy require unusual pressure to secure the
concession In the present instance

PATENTS FOR A YEAR,
The Report of the Commissioners Sub
o.. ..' mitted to the Senate.

Inc Report OF the commissioner sub
i'...' mitted to the Senate.
The report Of the commissioner 1f patents
for the calendar year ending December 81,
1873, was submitted to the Senate yester-
day. The figures given in 1t are as follows:
Applications for patents made during the
year, 37,293; applications for designs. 1.o6O;
for reissues, l20: for caveats, 2,247; for
trademarks, 1,S99; for labels, 4O1. There
were 23.670 patents granted; % reissues
1877 trademarks granted. Of foreign pat
ents there We're 2,I73 issued. During the
year 14112 patents expired and 4, l02 were
forfeited for non-payment OF the final fees.
The total expenditures of the cfice for the
year amounted to Sill, ,G:s.54, and the re-
ceipts exceeded the expenditures by SlOl,-
10, and the total receipts over eXpendi-
lures to the credit of the patent Office in
TIE treasury of the United States amounts
to $4,2S1, 743.45.
The development Of the patent system Of
the United States far exceeds that OF all
other countries. The total number of pat
ents issued by the United States up to
January l last, was J21, 100, while the ag-
gregate for all other countries was Sl7 ,362
In connection with the photolithographic
contract, the report states that The Ma
tional Photolithograp pning Company was the
lowest bidder, while the bid OF the old COM
pany exceeded the reduced appropriation
by over $4,000. Expected delays occurred
at first, but the arrears were subsequently
recovered and the quality of the work fully
sustained. Administrative reasons made it
desirable that the work should be taken
away from the former contractor and given
to another, with whatever inconvenience
might result"
