Edison's Fight for Lamps.

Il happened to be chatting with
at Orange, N. j., one night while he
was working on his most recent crea-
heard him discuss thoroughly the in
justice that is done inventors in the
United States" says a writer in the
New York Sun.
This very day. he said, several of
my well-known patents expire, and
become the property Of posterity,
which means Tom, Dick and Harry
The government processes to protect
the inventor for seventeen years, and
after that time, his creation is no
longer his own. But, as a matter Of
fact, the government does no sucn
thing. 1t lets any poacher run In and
bring suit, or apply for an injunction,
disputing the inventors patent already
granted by the patent office, and in all
the courts, pending the longdrawn-
out litigation which follows, the
other fellow is permitted to go on
manufacturing and selling the thing
he claims to nave invented before the
real inventor made it.
DO you see that little lamp there?"
asked Mr.. Edison, as he arose, full
length, in his ragged old linen duster
of the workshop, and he pointed with
his pencil to an ordinary incandes-
cent electric light beaming brightly
invention, known as a primary inven
ton, because I took two things. a piece
of metal and electricity, and made
third thing out of them-light. Now,
fought fourteen years in the courts
for that little lamp, because a French
man bobbed up and claimed it after
had secured the patent. During all
this litigation I had no protection
whatever, and when 1 won my rights,
after fourteen years, there were but
three years of the allotted seventeen
left for my patent to live. 1t has now
become the property of anybody and
everybody. There is no protection
given an inventor by the courts or the
patent Department.

FRAUD ON VOTING MACHINE.
Little Rubber Band, Secretly Placed
Will Count Out a Candidate.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 1.-THE
coting machine to be used at the COM
ing municipal election, tomorrow, was
tested Saturday before a committee
representing the fusionists, as it had
been claimed that it was possible to
beat the machine.
A linotype operator on newspaper
showed that, by placing small rub
Der band in a certain place near the
name of fusion candidate for mayor,
the machine would not register for
the mayor. though it would for all the
other candidates.
An expert representing the machine
company and half a dozen newspaper
men We're unable to make the ma
chine register while the rubber band
was in place. This is the machine
that has been used in New York and
other eastern cities, and this is the
first time that it has been de-
monstrated that it could be tempered
with to the extent of counting out a
candidate.

DEPUTY SHERIFF HAVILAND.
FINDS MRS. CURTIS TRUNK
NEAR PRESCOTT.
Valuable Contents Still Intact-Was
Checked Out Of O. r. & N. Depot 3
by Mistake. l.

Mystery surrounding the disappear
ance of Mrs. c. ]. Curtic' trunk, con-
tanning nearly $4,000 worth of wear
ing apparel and jewelry. from the o.
R. & N. depot a week ago, was clear
ed up last night when Deputy Sher-
iff Haviland returned to Walla Walla
from Prescott with the trunk and its
valuable contents intact After work.
ing two days on the case Deputy
Haviland located the trunk in the
possession of a Mrs. w. ]. Hulse at
the farm of Ralph Malloy. five miles
north of Prescott. Mrs. Hulse dis
covered last Tuesday that she had
the wrong trunk in her possession and
told several neignbors of the fact.
Through an oversight the officers
were not notified and the owner Of
the trunk was not known to Mrs.
Huse until acquainted of the fact
by Deputy Haviland.
Mrs. Hulse explained to the officer
how she came in possession of the
trunk by stating that a week ago Sat-
urday, while in Walla Walla, she sent
two trunks to the o. r. & N. depot
to be checked to Prescott. Through
some misunderstanding Mrs. Curtis
trunk was checked out and the mis-
take was not discovered until Mrs.
Hulse arrived at Prescott. She took
the trunk home with her and on OPEN
ing it found that the contents were
valuable. She replaced the articles
and they were found intact by Dep
uty Haviland.

FIRED WARSHIP BOILER.
President Took a Hand at Sticking and
Won the Hearts of the Stokers.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. L
THERE'S now a pet boiler On the cruis-
er West Virginia, the Roosevelt
boiler" so named a moment after the
chief executives desire to try mis-
hand at firing had been gratified. To-
day there is not a fireman, coal passer
or engineer in the big warship, who
has not got a fragment Of the shovel
the president used slowed safely away
in his kit.
1t was deep down in the heart of
the cruiser, far below the water-line,
that Mr.. Roosevelt really won the af-
lection of the ships company. He had
left his visit to the boiler-roOm to the
last. Near what is Roosevelt boiler"
a new and decorated shovel was
placed where he could not fail to see
it. He needed no other invitation In
an instant he was snoveling coal into
the boiler, while the sailors grouped
around grinned in delight.
The presidents tour of inspection
of the ship ended with the boiler-room.
AS soon as he reached the main deck
the entire ships company was sum-
moned aft, and the president made a
speech to the music of such cheer
ing as had never before been
heard on the West Virginia. ''The only
shots that count are the shots that
hit" was the keynote of his speech.
