William J. ellis.
The death of William j ellis in
Brightlook Hospital, St. Johnsbury,

ton and later in Claremont, N. H.,

Patent Office Salaries.

The confereess on the part Of the
House have agreed to the Senate
amendment in the deficiency appro-
priation bill carrying $15s.0oo for re-
organizing the patent Office and revis-
ing salaries. This action gives hope OF
better days for the men and women In
that office. It would seem that in any
revision cf salaries the revision must
be upward. Patent Office salaries. es-
pecially in the positions requiring
knowledge Of patents and patent law.
are, at the irreducible minimum. At the
ureseut salaries and under current ap-
uropriatfons it has been found iInpos-
sible to maintain a force large enough
to Keep abreast of patent business and
the Offering Ut new patentable devices.
To go lower in the scale Of salaries
and appropriations could not be
thought Of. Such a proceeding would
DISRUPT the ONCE. To q large extent
American business rests on patents,
and progress depends mainly on in
ventions that must be patented for the
protection and encouragement of in
vention. 1t is hoped that an office
which in a way is the core OF the
American business system will be
adequately provided for by Congress.
and that its corps Of workers will be
well paid.

'In the Interest of the South"

Senator Sheppard Of Texas. demo-
crat among democrats. caused to ba
inserted in the Congressional Record
yesterday an editorial from theN Fort
Worth Star Telegram ION the subject
Of the proper tariff policy toward the
SOUTH" as ne explained it, adding. II
think it will be of great, Interest" The
editorial dealt with a proposed tariff
schedule providing protective tariff
duties on. southern products. to be. sub
mitted to the Southern Tariff Congress-
which met at Fort, Worth March Is.
for Recommendation to the Congress of
the United States. 50
The schedule suggests a protective
tariff on southern products Of Il cents
pound on green hides. 31s cents d
pound on beef and duties on mutton,
hogs. wool. poultry, peanuts, pecans.
sugar, graphite. eggs, manganese. oils
and so on Ike T. Pryor Of Texas. weN
known by his frequent appearance be-
fore committees of Congress, estimates
that one billion dollars a year will be
added to the value Of southern prod
ucts if Congress adopts the schedules
submitted by the body which met at
Forth Worth.
The Fort Worth newspapers edi.
terial went on to observe that ''the
greatest obstacle which stands in the
way of obtaining proper recognition
for southern products is the attitude
of most of the democratic congressman
and senators ON this matter" and as
serted that they are assuming an at
titude of opposition to the entire tariff
program and apparently are willing to
have. the republicans pass a measure
favoring special industries and secA
tions at the expense of the south In
order to make political capital OF 1t
later"
All Of this would indicate a further
awakening Of the south to. the impor-
tance of the tariff question as an eco
non1ic issue, affecting the welfare OF
the whole country. and the inadvisabll-
fty of permitting it to be monopolized
as a political issue by one party. Or
course, there are differences Of opinion
as to whether q protective tariff. for
protection's sake as well as revenue
raising, is q benefit to the whole coun-
try or a detriment.
The meeting of the Southern Tariff
Congress probably has started renewed
discussion of this basic question. but
it would seem that by recommending
protective rates for southern products
Fit stands committed to the affirmative
of the proposition that protection is
beneficial to the nation as an economic
neaSnrc.

The conference had not been called to
consider it. The matters ut issue were
of world interest," and consequence.
That matter was. and is. Of interest
and consequence principally to Amer
ica and Japan.
It Is not difficult to appreciate ia
pans sensitiveness on the subject of
her nationals in foreign countries. And;
yet she must face the record. And the
record is that white they were no
more welcome in Canada Or Australia
than here in America, the fact did not
initiate against JapGn's alliance with
Great Britain. With full knowledge Of
this feeling in British domiuions, ia
pan had given her hand to Great Brit
ain. aud when the armament confer
ence met was not proposing to with
draw it. On TIRE contrary, she was
firm for continuing the clasp.
There arc not in this question the
of a war between America
and Japan. The general relations of
the two peoples. rs the viscount says,
have been much improved by the con.
ference: and In time all Of their reIa.
tions. general and specific, will show a
sincere and workable good feeling.

). Sc, pstrick's Day.

Twas a: golden sunrise over the
Irish hills this morning. and what
with the shamrocks and all being the
sreener and fovelier because OF the
storm which has passed, Irish hearts
must have been singing. And when
hearts have remembered how to sing
through ages Of hope deferred, the
song when the realization Of that hope
Is to hand is very good to hear.
Ireland stands, on this her day Of
days, at the threshold Of a. glorious op.
portunity. The dream Of freedom to
which Irish. hearts have chung through
the centuries. unfaltering and with
never an admission Of despair, is no
longer dream. 'Tis st. Patrick's day,
in the mornin':
The morning OF the great expert
ment. The morning of. fair opportu-
nifty. The morning Of the chance to
prove fitness for that to which they
have aspired; to win through to unity
and prosperity and ordered freedom.
America, with the rest Of the world,
rejoices In the day and its significance;
sincerely hoping that Ireland, facing
her responsibilities with courage and
determination, will prove wholly
worthy. of her dreams.

character of the case to be heard may
make. it especially disagreeable for

certainly the court should exercise
some discretion as to whether the
case Is such as a mixed jury should
hear. II the laws are such as to
threaten repetitions OF situations like
that in Minnesota, either the laws
should be changed or women should
withdraw from liability to jury serv-

Are there not factionisms enough with

Theodore Roosevelt was an unus bal

He returned to full republican atfilia-

William, ]. Bryan a quarter century

man. His stampeding OF the demo-
cratic national convention In 1896 was
an unusual and extraordinary per-
formance. He did not on that occasion
