No. 57-Protecting Our Inventors.

We are the most inventive nation
In the world. During the last ID
years about 1 person in every $50
asked for a patent on some device
or another. Applications are made
at the rate of about $4,000 year,
and about one-half of them get the
patent, and patent from the United
States Government means greater
protection to the inventor than one
issued by any other government under
the face Of the sun. While we have
only about one-siXteenth of the pop
ulatton of the world, something IKE
half the patents issued throughout
the world have been to American
inventors.
The patent law of the United
States is the very corner stone OF
American industry. Since lS40 the
manufacturers of the United States
have looked to our Patent Office for
decisions vitally affecting their busi-
ness through the use of any new and
useful invention.
The Constitution itself provided for
the granting of patent monopolies,
and this is the only monopoly &C
knowledged by our Government. The
Constitution says: Congress Shall
have power to promote the progress
of science and useful arts by secur-
ing for limited times to authors and
inventors the exclusive right to their
respective writings and discoveries. "
This section was inserted In the Con-
stitution at the instance of James
Madison and Charles Pinckney. The
Patent Office was created at the solici-
tation of Thomas jefferson when he
was head of the State Department. 1t
was authorized by an act of 1890.
which was placed on the statute books
after Washington in his first inaugural
address to Congress on January s,
$780, had said: II cannot forbear in
timating to you the expediency of Civ
ing effectual encouragementa as well to
the introduction of new and useful in
ventions from abroad as to the exer-
ton of skill and genius at home"
The Patent Office was first located
In the State Department. where it
was the particular pride of Jefferson.
After examining personally every pat
ent application, Jefferson usually sum-
rnoned Edmund Randolph of Virginia,
Washfngtons Attorney General. and
Evening star., 1925-05-28

Henry Knox of Massachusetts, the
first Secretary of War, who consti-
tuted the tribunal under law to pass
on the issuance of patent rights. SO
Jefferson was really the first admin
istrator of the patent system in this
country.
The first application for a patent
vas made to this board three months
lfter Washington approval of the
,ct by Samuel Hopkins, who on July
Il, 1890, was granted patent for "a
lew method of making pot and pearl
,shes." During the life of the act of
1870. about three years. 81 patents
we're granted by the board.
But the distinction of receiving the
irst patent ever granted in this coun-
try belongs still further back to
Samuel Winslow, who received it
from the General Court of Massachu-
setts in 1641 for a novel method of
making salt. Connecticut also was
early active in encouraging inventions
and required as a basis for a patent
grant that the invention "shall be
judged profitable to the country"
The patent system, by which an in
ventor was given limited enjoyment
of his invention as d reward for his
service to the community, has his
toric background in the famous stat
when the very act that first recog-
nized the reprehensible character of
private monopolies was the means of
establishing for the first time in his
tory the right of patent protection.
In 1898 the patent act was changed
so as to permit anyone TO obtain
patent, whether or not he was the
original inventor, or whether or not
his contribution was useful or novel.
In 1886 the present law was estab.
lished by an act passed through the
efforts of Senator Ruggles of Maine.
This law instituted the so-called
American method of granting pat
ents only after a thorough eXamina-
ton into the utility, operativeness and
novelty of the invention, and it pro-
vided the machinery and procedure.
1t created a revolution in the methods
of granting patents comparable in
effect with the institution of the pat
ent system itself.
1t is under the system go inaug-
urated that the Patent Office is now

The Evil Prophets.

1t is a grave mistake to listen to
the people who are predicting that
this country is going to the "bow-
vows, whatever that may be.
Some minds run in very narrow
grooves and are never able to get
out. They are fixed on ultimate
failure and nothing but failure will
satisfy them.
AS matter of fact which can
not be successfully contradicted,
this country was never on a more
solid and substantial basis than it
IS today.
This condition is not due to any
help extended by the prophets of
evil, but simply because the great
mass of the people continue to
work and forge ahead while other
countries bicker and lag behind.

, Central Idaho's forest highways will
have 1853 100000 spent on them during
the next two years. That is, taking
into account only the roads leading
into Challis from the south. To this
will be added s3OO,O0O.O0 which will
be spent on the Salmon-Montana
highway, making total of over half
million dollars. This program of vast
expenditure on road projects during
the next two years was decided on at
Boise week before last when forest
and state officials held conference
in the Capital City.
The highway district in which we
are located is No. a and this district
will receive $4,000 during the com
ing two years for maintenance work
with $1,000 for surveying and $780,
200 viii be held in the State contin-
cent fund
The major portion of this road
money comes from the federal gov
ornrent and the smaller portion from
the State.
All these projects are of vast i'm
nrrtance to Challis and all Central
idaho for they are among the main
arteries OF travel into this section and
the completion of these projects puts
Challis on several interstate high
ways.

ence. Salmon was defeated by Al
to Is score on their own court. Brad
ley, the Maroons' forward and cap
tain, was easily high point man, max
ing total Of 26 points for the Ma
rooms. The game was fast and the
Maroons were faster. nevertheless
the suspense was terrible. The
Challis girls were swamped by the
steady bombardment of the basket
by the Salmon girls, but in the Sec
ond half they showed what they thot
of the records of Challis High School
and pulled from to 13 score at
the end of the second half to 20 to
19 victory at the end Of the game.
The next night the Maroons went
on up to Leadore where hard fought
game was staged in the eyes of a
few Challis fans. The game was
close and clean. At the end of the
first half the score stood 2 to in
favor of the Maroons, they making
only one field goal and Leadore max
ing one foul goal. The game ended
with a score of IA to 9 in favor of
the Maroons.
A large crowd witnessed the game
at Salmon from Challis and the
teams certainly appreciate the splen-
did turnout and enthusiasm which
was shown by the fans from here.

tory next Saturday night. and anoth-
