his home. His father and mother
were Swedish immigrants. The for

and died In an almshouse, while the
mother. during the days OF grinding
poverty in which Johnson spent his
youth, was washerwoman. There
were six children In the family, and
the future governor was forced TO

burden of their support
Beginning his career as clerx in a
general store at $40 a mouth. later

the editor of country paper, John

HEARsT's PARTY.

Hearst formally launched the In
dependence league as a political party
last night when he made his speech
as temporary chairman Of the conven-
tion which assembled In Chicago for
the purpose OF placing a national
ticket in the field. The extent and
effect of the movement on the result
of the election Is problematlcal. II Will
prove a drawing card from both of
the old parties and the democrats
will be the greater sufferers. but to
what extent Is a mere guess at this
time. This movement, as well as
socialism, is the result OF discomfort
and unrest which shows that there Is
something wrong with our social and
political economics. These move
ments are not likely TO materialize
into a great national party with any
hope of ever placing president IN
Office or controlling congress, but
they will result In forcing the old
parties to take up the good In the
changes they advocate and give some
relief from the wrongs which are
making the millionaires and trusts
grow richer at the expense of the
people.

NEW BRITISH PATENT LAW.
Work Hardship on American and
German Mannfacturers.

Work Hardship on American and
German Manufacturers.
LONDON, July 28.-Many Amer /
lean and German manufacturers are
hard hit by the new British patent
law, which became fully effective to-
day. The law requires foreigners
who obtain patents from the British j
government to manufacture their
goods on British soil. AS a result
of the act, many German and Ameri-
can firms are either opening factor
les in Great Britain or are overcom-
ing the difficulty by means of royalty
agreements with British manufae-
turers.
The law is hitting the Germans
so hard that the union of Industrial
lists is now petitioning the German
government to adopt retaliatory
measures. Several English author
tiles are convinced that the law will
confer greater commercial and indus
trial benefits on Great Britain than
any law that has been passed in the
last half century. 1t has already re-
suited in the employment of many
thousand British work people and the
introduction of an enormous amount
of capital from foreign countries.
1t appears not improbable that the
recent prophecy of Sir Alfred Jones
to the effect that the new law will
cause the investment of 1925, 900, 900
of foreign-largely German-capital
in manufactures in this country will
be fully realized. Already a large
number of foreign firms have secured
factory sites. Over 10000 British
patents have been granted to for
eigners within the last three years,
and not one of the processes for
which the patents were taken out has
been carried on to any great extent
in the United Kingdom.
Hits Canada.
TORONTO, Ont, July 2S.-Great
Britain's new patent law, which be-
comes operative today, will hamper
the activities of many Canadian man
ufacturing concerns which have here
tofore exported goods to the mother
country. The new regulations, al
though primarily directed against the
manufacturers of Germany and the
United States, will operate with the
same force against Canada. 1t is be-
lieved, however, that Canadian COM
panies can satisfy the requirements
of the law by opening British factor
les with only a nominal output
viii Reduce Exports.
WASHINGTON, July est is
feared here that the enforcement to-
day of the new British patent law
will result in considerable reduction
in the exports of this country to Great
Britain. After today any patents
granted to American manufacturers
by the British patent Office may be
instantly revoked. unless the goods
patented are manufactured in Great
Britain. British concerns will be at
liberty to manufacture the same
goods, and the American owners of
the patent, If they have failed to es-
tablish factory on British soil, will
have no recourse. Patent attorneys
here say that large number of their
clients will be affected. although
many have complied with the law by
starting British factories.

that Johnson is slated for a promin-

JohnsOn's speedy rise to fame is
