u. S. Supreme Court Up
holds Their Right
To Make License and Restric.
lions as TO Way
In Which the Articles They Sell
May Be Used.

Washington, March 1.-THE SUI
preme court of the United States to-
day, upheld the right of holders of
patents to make license and restrie-
tions as to the way the articles they
sell may be used.
The case involved alleged infringe
ment in selling supplies for use on a
patented rotary mimeograph. A no
tice on the machine set forth that it
was sold on the restriction that it
was to be used only with supplies
made by the patenting company.
In announcing the opinion, Justice
Lurton said this conclusion resulted
from the proper construction of the
patent statutes.
The very object of this statute, he
said, was to give "A monopoly to the
inventor, and the fact that he con-
tinues that monopoly in his contracts
dsposing of his articles by charging
such price as he pleases was not il
legal
If such conditions interfered with
public policy, he said, Congress alone
must change the patent law.
Chief Justice White and Justices
HUGHES anu l<dlIldT QisSenCeu. Inc
chief justice said he did so because
he hoped a dissenting poinion might
serve as an antidote to a poison that
might enter in the future into millions
of transactions touching every phase
OF society. Again, NE said he hoped to
cali attention that this was a question
of construction and that if untold
evils were not to follow congress must
act. The chief justice said with limit
ed patent, the patent law as construed
by the majority could now reach out
and by contract include within the
patent every conceivable thing used
in every American household.
The only safeguard the country had
possessed against this increasing evil,
he declared, had been the hope that
the supreme court would hold the re-
strictions void.
At least, he declared, the majority
should have placed limit on it's de-
cision by which public policy would
not allow the patent law to be used
as a screen to commit wrongs and
work monopoly in articles not patent

Representative Williamson's plurality
in 1910 was 1856, however.

TO the excellent weather conditions the
fact that the polls for the first time in
the history of the city We're opened

of the total vote with the result that
it reached 25S7, the largest ever polled
in Thea history of the city in a NUM-
eipal election. The vote at the muni-
cipaI election of 1911, which was the
heaviest up to that time, was 252I
while that polled at the municipal
election in 1910 was 2517. In one of
the wards on the east side of the river

ballots when the polls opened at A.

New York City, and yet you have
west of you a part of the county of
Cumberland and the whole of the

Now, it is about this territory of
ours. and its industries and people that

incidently. these people, like ourselves,
are interested in the matter of gov
eminent, and before i get through
may draw d few conclusions about our
general welfare. In many respects our
State is the most peculiar of any in
the Union. We are at the northeast
extremity of the country and far re-
moved from the markets and the CEN
ter of population. While the average
gain in the last ten years in the pop
ulation OF the different states has been
about go per cent. ours has been but
$40 per cent. and we find ourselves
to-day with a little over 742.000 people
in this great area, and yet, our gain
in the last decade has been nearly as
much pro rata as Indiana, Delaware,
Maryland, and Tennessee, and has
been larger per cent. than that of
Vermont. New Hampshire, Missouri
and kentucky. and is in sharp con-
trast with Iowa, which lost $40 of l
per cent. in the last decade
Now, you are living in the metropo-
lis of the State, and there is centering
about your city fully Lilo of the entire
population of the State and probably
1-6 of its wealth, but in some ways ii
is exceedingly unfortunate that this
metropolis of ours was not located
nearer the center of our activities. 1t
is also unfortunate that SO much of
our product finds its market outside
of the State. and that the general Of

, Belfast.
In the remaining two of the five
cities in Which municipal elections
We're held today. the Republicans had
everything their own way in Brewer
where no Democratic nominations We're
made. and held their own in Bangor
where they carried four of the seven
wards, as they did, last year. but fail
ed to defeat the Democratic mayor.
The present mayor was reelected in
all five instances, Mayors Charles w
Mullen OF Bangor and Edgar +. Han
