SALMON FISHING
 ON THE REsTIGoUcHE.
Fifty Salmon Taken by Archibald
 Mitchell and Party.

ArIchbald Mitchell writes a friend that although the season on the Restigouche river has been unusually cool and the log fire has been most enjoyable evenings, the salmon are running well. and while 1912 was a banner year. the record of salmon taken up to date is in excess of the catch of last year.
 With four rods they have killed up to date fifty salmon, weighing in the aggregate 1,035 pounds. The largest fish weighed 30 pounds and the small est 10 pounds. All salmon taken on the Restigouche river under 20 pounds are considered small fish. Out of the fifty taken by the party there were 37 which weighed from 20 up to 30 pounds, as follows: 25. 23, 20. 20, 24, A, 21. 21. 20. 24. 21, 2C, 22, 22, 22, 20, 20, P. 27. 2S.

 The average weight was P s1- 37 pounds
 Up to June IT last year they had taken A fish, As far as gone, they are therefore ahead of 1912.

IMPROVEMENTS AT DAVIS.
New Generator for Picture Machine
 Ice Cooled Air in Circulation.

Lessee W. S. Davis at the Davis theater has just had another improve ment installed there for the picture machine, in the shape of a new gen orator which increases the amperes by about 20, and results in much clearer and steadier picture, as can already be noticed. It is working sat- isfactorily and although an expensive Improvement is worth all it costs, he says.
 He will keep the house open all summer, and for that reason had a cooling and ventilating system in op- eratdon which uses the same appli- ances as serve for heating and ven- tilating house in winter. The differ ence is that the air passes through ice cold coils instead of through hot coils.

CONNECTICUT MANUFACTURERS.
Those Who Control or Use Patented Articles Concerned by U. S. Supreme Court Decision.

The supreme court of the United States rendered a decision Monday, May 26 1913. in the case of The Bauer Chemical Co. against James O'Don- nell. which has been printed as a sen- ate document. It is far reaching de- cision, holding that the patentee, by notice may not limit the price at which future retail sales of the patented ar ticle may be made, such article being in the hands of the retailer by pur- chase from a jobber who has paid to the agent of the patentee the full price asked for the article sold
 In view of the fact that this decision manufacturer who controls or uses any patented article Senator rBandegee has furnished the substance of the decision which is as follows:
 Upon such facts as are now pre- sented we think the right to vend se- cured in the patent statute is not dis tlnguishable from the right of vending given in the copyright act. In both instances it was the intention of con- gress to secure an exclusive right to sell, and there is no grant of a priv flege to keep up prices and prevent competition by notices restricting the prices and prevent competition by mo- tices restricting the price at which the article may be resold The right to Vend conferred by the patent law has been exercised, and the added restric- ton is beyond the protection and pur- pose of the act This being so the case is brought within that line of cases in which this court from the be- ginning has held that a patentee who has parted with a patented machine by passing title to a purchasers has the monopoly secured by the patent act ''

LAST OF LOG CABIN RACE.

Hard as il may be for US to face
the fact. We have had our last log
cabin president. That picturesque
race. uniquely American. has passed
into history. Some of its products
We're as commonplace as Buchanan
and impossible as Johnson, but the
heroism of Jackson and the glory
of Lincoln have framed about them
all forever an unfading a~ureole.
The log cabin itself is an all but
extinct type of architecture. and the
social life il expressed survives only
here and there in the southern
mountains. With free schools and
free books scattered over the land,
and with the state university near at
hand, a poor country boy like Lin
coin, with a thirst for knowledge
and a pair of long legs, could not
miss getting mis- A. b. on a sheep
skin and his letter on his sweater by
running bases for the varsity nine.
Indeed. the country boy, however
circumstanced, has disappeared for
the time being from the presidential
line. Our population becoming more
and more urban, Il presidents for
a generation now have been urban in
their origin and training. There
was not a farmers lad among them.
The three principal candidates for
president in the recent election were
all urban. Probably no one of them
could milk a COW, although II may
not be safe TO place a limit on Mr..
Roosevelt's versatility.

THE COPPER SITUATION.

The copper situation presents a
sorry spectacle. and for purposes of
sealping of eighths or quarters in the
market the tendency is all toward
the selling side, says the Mining Age.
For investment purposes. however.
and for those timid holders of shares
who see panic times once more be-
fore them. il is better to look at the
matter squarely. The Engineering
and Mining Journal, which keeps a
close and sensitive finger on the cop
per pulse, and which also holds
pretty we'll aloof from influences
which would tend TO bias its iudg-
ment, is out with an editorial state
ment that the intrinsic position of
copper looks sound enough. The gist
of the editorial in question is that
the manipulatiye tactics of the pro-
ducers is the cause of today's I'M
certainty, and that the market. if
left alone, would be improved all
around. There is an atmosphere of
speculation and counter speculation in
evidence which makes for anything
but stability. The consumers are for
the most part taking no active part
in the proceedings. but merely trail
along. contenting themselves with as
little of the metal as they can buy
and still keep their shops running.
And that they will probably continue
to do until they can e a reasonably
stable market ahead of them. For
such requirements there is always
enough secondhand metal and metal
held by weak spectators to keep the
big producers decidedly uneasy.
There is a lot of copper TO be
bought and consumption of the metal
is still growing. Not so with pro-
duction, however, and it is quite
probable that this year will see con-
sumption in excess of output. Fancy
markets are all right while they last.
but in the long run they do harm.
Copper at zoe is prohibitive; even at
1ehe it is pretty expensive; and
price not below 15e is profitable TO
the miners.
Meantime the copper shares never
did advance in proportion to the rise
in metal in 1912. and they have re-
Gently been falling too fast and too
far merely to be keeping pace with
the metals decline. Get any of the
reports of the operating companies,
and figure earnings on a basis of,
say, Is cents as a permanent thing.
The result is good enough for any
one. Possibly the shares will go still
lower, but l do not hesitate to say
that in my belief purchases made
now will show a profit before a great
while-it is practically certain the
income yield will be satisfying.
