Historical Societies.

"rhc first stated meeting of the
newly organized Lebanon County
Historical Society,"" says the Leb-
anon News, "was highly interesting
and full of encouragement to its
projectors. From what was mani
test.dat this first meeting in the way
of attendance of ladies and gentlmen,
character of papers read presentation
OF old books and objects of interest
we have abundant reason for believ-
ing that the society soon will become
a great success in the objects for
which it has been organized"
We could wish the Lebanon
County Historical Society no better
luck than to have all of it's subse-
quent meetings equal its first.
There are men who sneer at the
effort to preserve the doings of
previous generations, but in our
judgment they are thoughtless men.
Our present greatness is founded on
the achievements of the deaG. The
foundations are admitted and firm.
What better could the living do
than to keep alive the memory of

The models have been crowded out
of their natural home and stored in
a rented building. The Railways
are nearly filled with file cases and
shelves tor the storage OF copies OF
patents, for copies of every patent
issued are kept on sale at uniform
price of 5 cents each. There is one
patent containing a hundred and
sixty-three sheets of drawings. 1t
costs the Government about 81 a
copy to reproduce the patent, yet
copies will be sent postage paid t.
any address for five cents.
About one half of the Patent
Office building is now occupied by
the Land Office and tho force of the
Secretary of the Interior. The two
things needful in order to enable
the Commissioner of Patents tC
bring the work up to date are the
full use OF the entire building and ;
substantial increase in the Examin'
ing corps. The profit over expens'
would still be about S2,OOO,OOO
year. The inventors of the country
unite in demanding from Congress:
ajust recognition OF their rights.

Uncle Sans Patent Shop.

On the first day of March the
Patent Office issued patent No.
100000. The enormous increase
in the number of American patents
granted will be understood when it
is stated that since the Centennial
year more than twice as many pat
ents have been issued as during the
entie period of our history preced-
ing that time.
The work of examining applica-
tions is growing more and more diff
ticult each year as the examiner has
to look over all patents up to date,
and in addition to our own patents
there is constant stream from
every civilized country in the world.
There are in the patent Office to-day
drawings representing nearly a mil
lion and half patents.
The theory that Yankee ingenuity
has already exhausted the resources
ut invention cannot stand in the
presence of the fact that during the
past year more applications for pat
ents were filed than during any
previous year in the history of the
country.
The examining force of the Pat
cnt Office consits of one hundred
and ninety-nine people, nearly all
graduates of colleges or technical
schools. They are grouped inthirty-
five divisions each Of which has
charge OF certain line ofinventions,
Again in each division, each assis-
tant examiner will look after some
particular branch of the work,
One man may spend fifteen year,
examining gas engines, or telephone
or automatic brakes. He becomes sc
expert that as soon as he reads al
application he can tell if it presents
anything novel
The work OF the Office has increaseC
10 such an extent that it is now
about seven months in arrears witt
its examinations. Efforts are being
made to induce Congress to increas'
the force. There is now in th'
Treasury a balance Of over five mil.
lion dollars in favor Of the Paten'
Office. This means that the invent
ors of the country have paid in fee
10 the Government enough TO rui
the Patent Office and make a prof
over expenses Of the enormous sun
mentioned. From the profits Of th'
systems, too, nearly all the fund
were taken which paid for the cos

Editorial Paragraphs.

Gold continues to pour into the
Treasury of the United States. The
amount now on hand reaches in
round numbers $4,000, 900, with
the prospect of a steady increase,
while the gold in circulation has in
creased with even greater rapidity
during the past year.
February receiptsat the Treasury
Department have averaged over a
million dollars day under the new
revenue law, thus fulfilling the
pledges made by its trainers of pro
ducing sufficient money to meet the
running expenses Of the Govern
ment, which average only million
dollars day, taking one month
with another, the year ronnd.
Chairman Jones and his political
associates who still call themselves
Democrats seem to have absolutely
forgotten the chief feature of Demo-
cratic faith, the "tariff for revenue
only" In their recent communcia-
tions to the public outlining their
views as tothe subjects for discussion
in the coming campaign, they made
no allusion whatever to the tariff,
the one subject which has been the
battle-cry of the Democrats for gen.
erations.
i UU Il
The financial world has been a
little puzzled as to the cause of the
small imports of gold in view of the
extremely large expectations OF mer-
chandise which are far in excess of
the imports of foreign merchandise
products. The discrepancy between
trade balances and gold imports is,
it is believed, is accounted tor by a
return from abroad of American Sc
curties for cancellation, by reason OF
the anxiety caused in the minds OF
foreign investors by the recent ac-
tivity of the silver advocates.
One per cent. week is a pretty
rapid huctuation for a money metal,
That Is about the rate, however, at
which silver has deprecated in the
last eight weeks or SO. Silver bul.
lion was quoted in the New York
markets early in December at 6O.9
cents per ounce, and by February
it had fallen to 1915 cents, with @
prospect of going still lower. The
New York World market repor,
quotes it as follows: "Weak al
55.75." This must be rather dis.
couraging to the people who propos'
to make the use of silver as none,
metal the sole basis Of their claim
for support in the coming Congress
sional campaign.

AN INEVITABLE ISSUE.

The Republicans of Boston were all
set talking the other day, by reason
of a special dispatch from Washing
ten that appeared in the Transcript,
which dispatch was evidently inspired
1t was in these words:
1t is every day growing more clearly
apparent that the free silver issue must
be fought out again in the elections of
1898 and 1900. For time after the de-
feat of Bryan, many people joyfully as
serted that free silver was dead; the
country had spoken, and from its decis
ion there was no need of an appeal.
This view has been especially popular
along the eastern seaboard, in New
York, New England and as far south
as Baltimore. 1t has been plausibly ar
sued that by the time another four
years roll around the silver question
would fall out unnoticed by the way
side, and that the Democratic party
would enter the presidential contest
with something new for an issue. But
the political developments of the last
II months, as reflected at the national
capital, unfortunately do not support
this view.
1t always was surprising that the
Republicans accepted the result of the
eIeCllOn II 1880 as SellllnS once anu
for all the great issue involved in the
campaign of that year. What is the
truly surprising thing about that cam
paign is that the free silver cause
should have received the support it did,
seeing that it was introduced as a dis
tinct issue for the first time in that
year. This must appear to be the case
to Republicans and gold standard adj
vocates when they reflect.
There seems a tone of sadness in the
remark. that the political developments
of the last IA months. as reflected at
the national capital, unfortunately do
not support" the view that the silver is
sue is dead. 1t is really too bad, isn't
it? They would do well to reflect that
great issues are very rarely decided
in one campaign. They may go down
again ard again in an election. but if
they have in them the germs of a great
principle their coming up follows regu-
larly their going down, until they come
up to stay and go down no more. Such
an issue is that of free silver.
