THE TAX BILL PAssED.-The
conference report on the tariff bill
passed the Senate Saturday last.
1t had passed the House previously,
and is now q law. The People can
now prepare to pay the Trusts OF all
kinds higher prices for nearly every
thing used by civilized persons, and
confidence being restored to the
Trusts by the law making them
richer, members OF the Trusts will
Of course enjoy prosperity, at the
expense of the common people.
Get into a Trust or die of starvation,
say the Barons to the farmers and
labOrers.
After the passage Of this law Nc
Kinley sent in q message recon-
mending the appointment Of a
monetary commission, to devise
some way to retire all the green
backs, and issue National Bank notes
in their stead, without the People
knowing it. But Congress paid no
attention to him, and refused to
take up bill to prevent the Union
Pacific from cheating the People to
the tune Of $50, 100000 more. 1t
was hot and Congressman wanted
to get away, and SO at 8 o'clock at
night both branches adjourned sine
die, and members generally hast
ened TO the R. X. trains and put
out for some Of the watering places
or summer resorts frequented by
the leaders Of the Trusts they had
obeyed. No doubt their hats are
"chalked," for as long as they want
to stay. The millions made for the
Trusts by their votes can easily
stand II, while the laboring miner
sees his family starving and vainly
begs for bread.
Such is Republicanism in 1897.

DOCTORS LICENSED.
Only Is In Dubois County.

The Clerks record Of physicians
who have received certificates from
the State Board of doctors, only
shows 16licensed physicians in Du-
bois county, out Of over 30 in the
practice, and only two mid-wives,
out Of a whole host of women acting
in that capacity. Certainly some
doctors expect to practice cheap,
as the law provides that none but
who have complied with
the law can enforce collections of
doctor bills, and it is made the
prosecuting attorneys duty to pros
ecute them besides, if they attempt
to practice after July 18th.

Now that the tariff has gone into
effect there should be NJ trouble
about the coal miners getting all
they ask in the way of wages. The
duty on coal is 81 cents per ton,
which is equal to the entire wages
Of the best paid miners. 1t is
claimed that all that is wanted in a
tariff is to make up the difference
between domestic and foreign wages,
and no foreign miners are working
for nothing. The new tariff is an
advance of n cents per ton on the
rates Of the Wilson law, and there
is no apparent reason why there
should not be an advance Of ~ cents
per ton in miners wages if the
tariff is really for the benefit of the
American workingman.-Ind. Sem

ed 10 relieve the public. The inventor OF

lection, and II the telephone company
buys the invention it is entitled to all
the rights which the inventor had The
court, ne gays. dissen.s entirely from the
views urged by counsel, that the appli-
can. for a patent was a quasi-trustee
for the public, but held that an tnven-
ton was tee absolute property Of rs in
vcator The government, in order to
make its case, must establish affirna-

cant. II cannot rest on mere differences.
but must prove the wrong in such
manner as 70 satisfy the judgment, be-
fore u can destroy that which It's own

Remarking upon another feature OF
the case, the justice said that. taking

Indications that the purpose Of striking
down the patents was to give value to
others, and that competitors OF the Bell
company were seeking to inspire a rival,
not for the public good. but for the pro-
motion of their personal interests.
The CONCLUSION OF the court, very
much condensed, on tins branch Of the
case as TO fraud or collisions at the
patent Office, were:
Firs;-Taat before the government IS
entitled to a decree cancelling a me-
cbanical patent on the ground that il has
Keen fraudulently obtained il must es-
tabl'sh the fraud by convincing testi-
moay.
Second-That an applicant for a pat
ent cannot be held responsible for the
dilatory acts OF patent office officials, IN
less the delay is brought about through
his corruption.
Third-The evidence IN tbs case does
not tend in the least degree to show any
such corruption.
Fourth-If the circumstances do no.
show that the delay on the part the Of
ficialS was wholly justified, they do
make it clear that it was not wholly I'm
warranted.
