PATENTS.
Notice to Inventors.

There was never a time In the his
tory of our country when the demand
for inventions and improvements in
the arts and sciences generally was so
great as now. The cOnveniences Of
mankind in the factory and workshop,
the household, on the farm, and in Of
ticial life, require continual accessions
to the appurtenances and implements
Of each in order to ave labor, time
and expense. The political change In
the administration of government does
not affect the progress of the Ameri-
can inventor, who being on the alert,
and ready to ~preceive the existing de-
aciences, does not permit the affairs
of government to deter him from
quickly %conceiving the remedy to ever
GENE the existing discrepancies. Too
great care cannot be exercised in
choosing a competent and skillful at
torney to prepare and prosecute an
application for patent. Valuable in
terests have been lost and destroyed
In innumerable instances by the em-
ployment-o of incompetent counsel, and
especially is this advice applicable to
those who adopt the "No patent, ne
pay " system. Inventors who intrust
their business to this class o%fattorneys
do so at imminent risk, as the breadth
and strength Of the patent is never
considered in view Of quick endeavor
to get an allowance and obtain The fee
then due. THE PRESS CLAIMS

eral Manager, BiS r street, N. W.,

lodicals of the country, was instituted

Last Saturday afternoon the South.
ern Pacific officials were given an ex-
ample of the beauties of the double
header system of running their trains.
The directors car, with General Man
ager Kruttscnitt, Superintendent Fill
more and other officials on board, was
attached to the real end of the east
bound passenger train. Just before
the train reached town a double head
freight came in from the east and
had the main line in the yard filled
up. The most convenient way to
pass was for the passenger train to
take the side track and let fine freight
pull through. Just as the double
header got even with the directors
car 1t broke in two and gave an exhi'
bltion for the officers benefit. When
the passenger train pulled out Of the
yard it had been delayed twenty-five
minutes.

The election of last Tuesday was as
complete a republican victory as was
that of a year ago, but not as extern
sive, because the election did involve
as many offices as did the last one. In
New York the republicans carried the
state by about so, 200. Tammany car
rled New York city by 1900. New
jersey went republican by 10000. In
Kentucky the result Is in doubt, al
though Hardin, the democratic candi-
date for governor, ran ahead of his
ticket on his free silver record. Ohio
rolled up a republican plurality OF
$4,000 aud two-thlrds of the legisla'
ture is republican. In Maryland, for
the first time within the memory Of
man the democrats have been beaten.
In Utah not enough returns have been
received to tell who carried the about
to be state. Massachusetts,, Iowa,
Illinois, Nebraska, Kansas and Penn.
sylvania are all in the republican col
umn. Mississippi still is true to hel
record and went democratic by 10000
