Patent Laws Are
All Wrong
By JUSTICE DAVID j. BREWER of the
United States Supreme Court

THINK the whole system Of the patent laws this country
is quite wrong. This the way operates A sends

$50 have the patent granted him. It comparatively small
This of course in addition whatever he pays his
agent commissioner for securing the patent Now if the govern
finds that he is not entitled patent HIS FEE is RE
TURNED TO HIM.
The thing exactly the from all ideas Of equity The
has been put the trouble of looking the applicants
right to be granted a patent THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD
BE PAID FOR ITS TROUBLE It should refund the money
for conscientious work done On the other hand the entitled
to the should charge him nothing for granting
simply because the government should invention of all
kinds 1t would even be wise almost pay PREMIUM for
making real invention. +
Now look what happens under the system
granting patents The government does refund
money and in consequence the country deuged with of
USELESS patents The great majority original
not Inventions They only distorted applications the REAL
inventors idea. ,...4.

GOOD AND POOR PoTAToEs.


We are asked what the conditions
should be in order to produce a fine
potato-a well favored, mealy tuber.
The variety of potato has much to do
with this proposition, the nature Of
the soil in which it is grown still more,
while the weather conditions material
~ change the quality. 1t may be said
that all kinds of potatoes which nat
urally grow to a large size are Of
coarse texture and low grade, quite apt
to be hollow at the core and watery;
then all early maturing varieties are
as rule poor keepers and soon lose
their mealiness and high quality. Pota-
toes of any kind only scantily covered
with earth and more or less exposed to
the intense heat of the summer sun
and more or less light are always Of
low grade. A very wet season lowers
the grade if it does not injure the crop
by rot. 1t may be said that sandy
soils are always better for the potato
than muck OF clay soils, the finest po-
tatoes in the country being produced
on the thin pine wood soils Of upper
Michigan and Wisconsin. The potato
demands a good supply Of humus in
the soil; thus we find newly cleared
timber land or a clover sod the best
location for this crop. 1t also thrives
greatly under the irrigation systems Of
the far west

held toward him and with a firm step
walked to the guillotine and quietly
laid his head in the cavity.
Jubilant cheers and cries Of "Bravow
which the police tried in vain to sup
press, arose from the crowds as the
knife fell.
Zwartwaeger made a fearful strug-
gle, and Deibler and his men had great
difficulty in holding him down on the
bascule. He howled and shouted like
a maniac, but his cries were soon stop
ped short by the descending knife. AS
his head rolled into the basket shouts
Of give Deibler! resounded, and the
people made a rush toward the guilIo-
tine as if they wanted to pull the heads
out of the baskets and jump on them.
This attempt was stopped by the gen
darmes and police, who had to struggle
with the people for nearly a quarter of
an hour.
Jean Knockaert, the husband of the
murdered woman, who was among the
Spectators. clapped his hands and dane
ed with joy on the roof from which he
had viewed the execution.
AS Deibler and his men were taking
down the guillotine Knockaert hugge'l
the chief eXecutioner and invited him
to breakfast Deibler accepted the in
vitation, and at the meal Knockaert
proposed his health and kissed what
he called his "avenging hand
The bodies Of the guillotined men
were conveyed to the cemetery for

examination and also for experiments.

THE TROUT ARRIVE.
Mr.. DAVIS of the Glenwood Hatchery
Reached Grand Junction This
Morning With 10000
Young Trout.

As announced in the Sentinel some
days ago Hannah Creek is to receive
5000 young trout this week Last
night Mr.. Dawson. in charge of the
hatchery of the state fish commits
sion at Glenwood Springs. arrived in
Grand Junction with the 5000 little
finny individuals.
The fish are in large cans, each can
containing $500 trout. They are six
weeks old, about an inch and a half
long and as lively as can be.
The fish were taken over the mar
row guage this morning to White
water accompanied by Mr.. Dawson.
At this point Carl Rupp had team
and the Chamber of Commerce furn-
ished another team the fish were di-
vided between the two wagons and
the start was made for Hannah Creek
with Mr.. Dawson in charge.
The trout will be planted in the
creek over a distance of about FIVE
miles, one can being emptied every
quarter of a mile.
Mr.. Dawson states that the trout
would reach the legal length for fish
ing in about Is months.
Many thousand fish were distribute
ed in the creek last year and with the
rs, 900 going into the stream this
year Hannah creek should in year
or two be one of the best trout
streams in Western Colorado.
Trout fishing in Hannah creek us
ed to be first class but the bursting
of the reservoirs up near the head
waters eighteen months ago caused
such floods to sweep down the stream
that nearly all of the trout were car
ried away.

DIDN'T COUNT COST.
Charles Swanson Won His Bride But
now Faces Serious Charge as
Result of Anger of Young
Lady's Parents.

The young man. Charles Swanson,
whose arraignment in district court
on the charge of swearing falsely re-
garding the age of a young lady was
announced in the Sentinel on We'd
nesday, has ELECTED the sympathy of
a good many people for it is as true
now as ever that "all the world loves
a lover" 1t is not believed by his
friends that the young man realized
the seriousness of the offense of
swearing falsely to an affidavit in
order to secure a license to wed the
girl he loved after the parents had
refused to give their consent.
Swanson who is a young man of
rather handsome appearance and who
is quite well known in the city and
Miss Irene Parton, daughter of Mr.
Parton who has resided in Grand
Junction for long period, had been
lovers for some months it is said
and owing to the girls tender years
the parents would not hear to her
marrying Swanson at this time. But
believing like many lover in the past
that 'all's fair in love and war"
Swanson on September 21st went to
the county clerks office and there be
fore Deputy Clerk Caldwell made at
fidavit that the young lady was over
the age of eighteen, therefore not
needing the consent of her parents.
las the result Swanson secured the
license and he and Miss Parton lost
no time in interviewing minister
and were soon welded. Not until
after the ceremony was performed did
the parents of the girl learn of wha,
had transpired and to say that they
were infuriated is putting it mildly
The father declares that his daugh-
ter is only sixteen years of age and
that Swanson knew this fact. In spite
of the fact that Swanson was now his
son-in-law, and it is said, in spite OF
remonstrance and pleading of the girl
wife. Mr.. Parton swore out warrant
charging the young man with max
ing false affidavit and the happy
young swain was arrested lodged in
Jail and on Wednesday stood in court
to plead on the charge of perjury He
declares that he is not guilty, that
Miss Parton had told him she was s
years of age and that he honestly
believed her to be that age when he
secured the license.
Swanson expects to secure means
from his relatives in the east suffic.
lent to employ an attorney and he
will probably be arraigned for trial
next week.
Some of the young mans friends
have believed that the father would
reIent give the young couple his
blessings and have the prosecution
dropped but such does not seem prob
able, the father is obdurate.
However, the marriage has been
solemnized, the young people won
out there, and 1t is said that 1t cannot
be set aside. And again another old |
saying whose truthfulness is pretty |
strong Love will find way" comes
to mind
The case has attracted much atten-
tion and the young man. who in his
eagerness to claim the girl he loved |
as a bride has evidently violated the |
law, seems to have aroused much |
sympathy.
