IDEAS COME TOO HIGH
Marconi Wants the Earth for
His Invention.
WE WILL MAKE A BETTER ONE
y Once to Build an Apparatus for
Wireless Telegraphy.

New York, Dec. 25.-A special to
the Tribune from Washington says:
Rear-Admiral Bradford has asked au-
thority from the navy department to
establish bureau at tho naval training
station at Newport for the develop
ment of naval system of wireless tel
egraphy. 1t is proposed to detail sew
eral officers having high electrical
knowledge at this station and to fur
nish facilities for study and expert
ment, in the belief that something bet
ter than Marconi's apparatus may be
devised.
The project to secure Marconi's sys
tenn for the navy has been practically
In the first place its range
was found to be exceedingly limited,
especially when vessels were rolling in
. seaway, and their topmasts continu-
ously varied in height above the water.
Then there was the insuperable objec-
tions of interference, two stations be-
ing unable to hold intelligent commun-
ication when third station within
their circle of seusitiveness undertook
to send message to either point. This
defect destroys the value of the system
where more than two ships cruised in
squadron or where an enemy chose t.
send disturbing messages.
Finally, Marconi's terms Of $40, 900.
for the first year and SIC, 900 annually
thereafter were regarded as exorbitant
for the use of his half-developed inven-
ton. He declined absolutely to modify
his proposition, which compelled the
navy to take 20 sets of apparatus OF
more, and to pay $500 outright for each
set. and $500 a year each as royalty
for their use. He refused to send two
or three sets for experimental pur
poses, and gave American naval officers
to, understand that he did not care to
do business on small scale when Eu-
ropean navies were fighting for the ex-
elusive use of his coherer and other es-
sential features, in spite of the SYSTEMS
radical shortcomings, as discovered on
this side of the Atlantic. Marconi's
attitude toward the army was scarcely
different, and the signal corps is going

avoids the Italians patents, and al.
ready is said to be producing better re-
suits.
Rear-Admiral Bradford believes that
some of the electrical experts of the
naval equipment bureau, if the oppor-
tunity is given them, will produce APP
paratus to meet the peculiar conditions
of the navy without appreciable expen-
diture, and in all probability the ex.
periments he desires will be ordered.
One station will be located at the
training station and the other at the
torpedo school, on islands about mile
apart, and as progress is made other
tations will be set up at various points
Il Newport harbor, where torpedo.
boats are always available. with vessels
in motion or for miniature feet evolu-
tions. Several forms of apparatus from
American inventors have already been
submitted for test, and doubtless others
will be received when the work is act
ually started.

Riverside and other places, but no par
ticular damage Is reported, except from

Agitation the Life Of Relsublica.

Republics exist only on the tenure of
being constantly agitated. The social
agitation is an important, nay, an es-
sential part of the machinery of the
state. 1t is not disease nor medi-
cine. No: it is the normal state-the
normal state Of the nation. Never. to
our latest rosterity. can we afford to
do without prophets like Garrison and
ora tors like Adams to stir up the mo-
rctony. of wealth ard greed, and H.
walker: the people to the great ideas
that are constantly fading out of their
minGs-to trouble the waters that there
may he health in their flow. Every
Every set of officials are, by the very
necessity Of their position, apostates
we mean what we say. They are enem-
les to people, of necessity-because the
moment they join the government they
gravitate against that popular agita-
ton which is the life Of republic. A
republic is nothing but constant over
flow OF lava. The principles of JEFF
ferson are not up to the principles of
today. 1t was we'll said of Webster
that he knew we'll the Hancock and
Adams of 1776, but he did not know the
Hancocks and Adamses of his day.
The republic that sinks to sleep; trust
ing to the constitutions and machin-
cry politicians and statesmen for the
safety of it's liberties, never will have
any. The people are ever to be awak-
ened to new efforts, just as the church
has to be regenerated in each age.
Some new anti-slavery agitation is
necessity of each age to- keep ever on
the alert this faithful vigilance. so con-
stantly in: danger of sleep. We must
live like our Puritan fathers, who al
ways went to church and sat down to
dinner, when the Indians were in the
neighborhood, with their musket- lock
on one side and drawn sword on the
other
To my conviction it is a gospel truth
that, instead of this agitation being
an evil, Or even the sunwelcome cure of
disease of this government, not the
cure, but the diet of free peOple-nOt
the homeopathic or the allopathetic
dose to which sick land has recourse,
but the daily cold water and the SIM

necessity-the mamma of people
wandering in the wilderness. There is
no Canaan in politics. AS health lies
in labor, anG there is no royal road to
it but through toll, so there is no re-
publican road to safety but in con-
slant distrust. I'm distrust" said
Demosthenes, ''are the nerves of the
