The indictment of State Land Commissioner Brown and his

thirty fifth man indicted during the administration of Gov. Brewer
for unfaithfulness one way or another in office. Verify we are hav-
ing the most awfuly awful grand juries empaneled in these days
that ever has been heard of since Hannah built his own galows. Just
why grand iures should be picking out men to indict who are serv-

The Sentinel admonishes the people of Grenada to read the re-
port of Superintendent Award of the Water and Light plant made
to the City Council at November meeting. The report shows why
tho plant has been a losing proposition. The waste is enormous.

CITY MAY BE SUED.
Is Notified That Filtration Plant Is an
infringement of Patent.

The city of burlington was formally
notified Yesterday by a firm of attorneys
that 1t was using a process of filtration
at the fltration plant which was an in
trlngement of patent and that steps
would undoubtedly be taken towards
prosecution against the city, or PROPOSE
ton for settlement would be made.
The patent IN question is number
fiilH and the article patented is what
is known as the negative head or down
draft process of filtration" according to
the attorneys letter. An enclosure was
sent showing a cut of tho patent, also
copy of the court decision sustaining
the same. Whether the city has infringed
ON anybody's patent or whether 1t Is
liable In case OF infringement are facts
that remain to be seen
The filtration plant was built ir 1907 -0s.
the contractor being the Ley Construc.
tier company and the engineers. Mcssrs
Herring md Fuller, It cost about 5000
In event OF the citys usn5 an infringe
ment Of the patent. the question of
liability would naturally come IN. The
following clause is found in the contract
between the Ley company and thA city:
The contractor shall keep himself
fully Informed Of all existing and future
city ordinances and regulations, State
and national laws. in any way manner
affecting the work specified and no shall
at all times observe and comply with
said ordinances laws and regulations
and shall protect and indemnify the city
and Its officers ard agents against any
claims and liabilities arising from and
based on the violation OF any such laws,
ordinances or regulations"
The letter received by thu city to-day
states that a case was heard in the fed
eral courts for violation of the patent
In question. the title being New York
Continental Jewell Filtration company VS..
the city OF Harrisburg. which resulted in
the courts unfolding the patent accord
ing to n decision rendered August %,
1918. 1t is further stated that the owner
of the patent has taken no judicial step
towards recovery until he ascertains the
outcome of the litigation. The court
cited is the lower federal court and from
which an appeal may be taken to the
circuit court of appeals or the United
States Supreme Court. Whether this last
step has been taken or not does not seem
to be of record. The attorneys go on TO
say that they have been instructed to
commence vigorous prosecution for their |
client against all infringers OF the patent
unless the claims of the patent owner
are amicably settled and adjusted with
reasonable, spromptitude In this connec-
ton it is cited that the patent owner
will not seek. probably. to recover the
full amount of damage that he thinks he |
is entitled to by the infringement but is |
ready to submit an offer of a basis for |
