Now this is an argument for or
against woman suffrage accordiug to
the way you look at it. The anti
suffragists are casting it in the teeth
of their suflragette friends on the
ground that equal suffrage failed to
reform Denver, that the women voters
were tried in the balance and found
wanting, that they did not stand to-
gether against rum and to make
the city of Denver better" But it is
to be doubted whether the notion that
women should have the vote in order
to reform men, just as they marry

it might be. The curtain lecture

The Circus Man.

It is as the man who did much TO make
the American circus possible that Carl
Hagenbeck. citizen of Hamburg, whose
death is recorded in the dispatches, will
be best remembered. Any man who does
as well as it can possibly be done his
appointed work through long span Of
years is entitled to be called great, and
in his particular line there has been none
greater than Carl Hagenbeck.
Accident it was that settled his choice
of work-the capture, training. and sale
of wild animals. His family had been
identified with the shipping business for
years, and it was by chance they had d
wild animal left on their hands, which
Carl took care OF. trained. and finally
sold. Started on this career. Carl Hagen
beck went into it thoroughly. and some
day, doubtless. there will be written a
volume telling Of his wonderful expert
ences in the jungles of India, the forests
of Africa, and the wilds of South Amer
lea in the search for wild animals. Bit
by bit he built I'D this unique business
that he had originated. until It became
the largest of It's kind in the world,
though he has, in later life. many imi-
tators.

Foreign Patents in Germany

Judging from the bill that has Just been
submitted to the Reichstag in regard to
patents in Germany for articles of foreign
invention, that country wants some ade-
quate return for the protection that her
patent laws AFFORD TO outsiders. The
measure proposes that if after three
years of protection there has not been a
sufficiently large manufacture Of the pro-
tected article. either in Germany or in
her colonies. the patent shall lapse and
no further protection be accorded to the
patentee.
The adoption of a law OF this nature
would mean that to secure protection in
Germany the establishment of factory
on German soil and the working Of that
factory TO a prescribed extent will be
necessary to avoid infringement of patent
rights. Failure in this important detail
would mean that any German manu-
faeturer could proceed to make any ar
tioIe of foreign invention the originator
of which might be either unable or I'M
willing to pay this enormous price for
protection.
II other nations should adopt retaliatory
laws of this nature. the general effect
would obviously be 10 nullify the force
and effect of the foreign patent law. since
ii would be clearly impossible for
ordinary capital 10 scatter its fac
tories so as to secure protection in
as many countries as now afford it. At
bottom there is, Of course, desire to
build up the commerce and industry Of
the nation by attracting thither as many

foreign manufacturers as desire to sell
their protected product to its people.
Germany may feel secure enough in the
low cost OF living and the cheapness of
labor within her boundaries to disregard
the effect upon the inventions of any Of
her own people If other Mathis adopt sim
liar laws. and may thus hope 20 push to
her own advantage her well-known COM
petitive forces, against which for so long
the manufacturer of free trade England
has struggled. And even with the protec-
ton that the United States affords her
manufacturers. the legend, MADE in Ger
many" has long been unwelcome But
il such a law be adopted. and Germany
secure the right to manufacture these ar
ticles, or If she should secure the cree
ton of factories for the manufacture
OF even small percentage OF articles of
foreign invention now patented there, the
impetus to her Industrial progress would
at first sight be greatly increased.
But behind it all is the great question of
international ethics that would be In
voked if nation of her Importance
should claim the right TO pirate the in
ventions of foreigners who were unable
TO conform to the rigid provisions of such
a rule. The general effect would be that
OF retraetion in large part OF the foreign
patent law SO far as it applies 10 Ger
many and the consequent lessening of the
value of ali inventions. It is the raising
Of the price of patent protection in Ger
many TO an exorbitant figure, while the
attempt TO substitute home manufacture
for a part of its imports by such means
is one Of the most radical forms of pro-
lection that has probably ever been
known.
