LEVI P. MORTON,
of New York.
Mr. Blaine will probably land . on
tomorrow. At least, from the thumping
of the democratic liver his presence is
growing nearer.
The Journal is down on the "Middle
men." It advises the farmer just how to
sell his butter. Tells him to make it
clean. To be careful in feeding his cow.
To liave his wife assist him. To get five
cents above the market price and have
lua customer stay by him all the year
round. By these means the Journal
nrriie3 the farmer will "ot rid of the
7 -
grocery man and Cad a quick and easy
means for the disposition of his other
produce. Above all things the farmer is
advised i Je honest. This article is
supposed to be remotely connected with
the "robber tax" still It may bo drawn
entirely from the editor of the Journal's
experience with the groceryman and
farmer. We nominate the Journal man
for tho head of the Bureau of Agricul
ture. Whats the use in not haying a ser
vant and farmers friend at tho head of
that establishment?
'Mr. Cleveland is a reformer" says
our democratic neighbors; well, if he is
why dont his administration show it?
Has any civil service supporter of his
dared answer the terrible indictment pre
sented by the New York Tribune in its
"special 100 V There is the record, taken
from the records, showing the most dam
nable list of appointments made by Gro
ver Cleveland. Nothing since the inaug
uration of Washington cau compare
with it. The mugwump press, which
declared for Mr. Cleveland iu 1 SiS4 solely
on the grounds of his reform promises,
have been forced to admit that he has
practically abandoned the whole civil
service scheme. Mr. Cleveland is not a
reformer, he is a patron of boodlers of
. the worst type in politics; his instincts
all tend to low associations politically.
He left congress in session the other day
and went a fishing and the democratic
press was careful to say that he only met
one or two leading men and that his sole
object was "fall." Now who did Mr
Cleveland go fishing with? Smith M.
Weed; who is Smith M. Weed? Does
any of our readers fail to recall the
wealthy manufacturer Mr. Weed the
man sent by Mr. Tilden to buy up the
South Carolina electors. The man who
telegraphed back to Pelton over his own
initial that he had made the purchase for
$S.,000! This is the boodler reformer
Cleveland flics to for advice and help in
his extremity in New York. Do our
democratic friends remember who went
' to South Carolina with Mr. Weed to buy
that electoral vote? For fear they have
not kept track of that fellow, the Her
ald reminds them of his identity and
suggests that his name be pasted in the
crown of each democratic hat, he is an
important democrat nowadays and the
only fellow who had influence enough to
get a hearing before the dark lantern
committee on the Mills bill. His name
is Havcmeyer and he did it with sujar.
He is the democratic prince of trusts who
sugared the Mills committee and witl
the congressmen from Louisiana sartd
snjar. These are the men Mr. Cleveland
navises win; tue men who engineer
democratic policies for the dear people
1 et, our democratic friends would have
the public endorse Grover Clevland as a
reformer Mr. Cleveland is anything, ex
cept a reformer.
BLAINE INCOMING.

democratic editor and rounder, for Mr.

sence much longer. On the 8th ot August
only next w eilnesuay: lomorrow, just
think of it! That fearful man dreaded
by the democratic party more than it
would fear the ravages of the Asiatic
cholera in their midst, is certain to land
in New York amidst the cheers and em
braces of thousands upon thousands of
Lis loving fellow citizens. Yes. he will
land and greet the people and the people
will greet him; not because he is a candi
date for a great office; not because he is
able to dispense patronage to a grand
army of pap-suckers; not for any of these
but because he is the most illustrious Am-,
erican now living; because he is the great
est statesman America has produced and
because he is tho friend of his country
and tho acknwleged defender of itt
honor and of the great industrial system
uuder which it has taken the first place
among the nations of the earth. Mr.
Blaine is coming and the American peo
ple are happy over the national event;
notwithstanding the agony of the small
army of exceedingly small born demo
cratic poiiticians. Welcome Blaine !

GETTING A PATENT.
Business of Patent Lawyers Making an
Application The Fees.
"Do patent lawyers make money f
"They ought to. There are from thirty to
forty thousand applications made for patents
and the majority of these come through law
yers. They rarely do business ou commis
sion and they charge good fees. There are
scores of patent lawyers in Washington and
their offices line the streets in the neighbor
hood of the interior department. Some of
them are very prosperous and some have
mode fortunes. The patent business for a
big invention s worth n great deal of money
and hundreds of thousands cf dollars have
been spent in protecting the interests of thy
telephone. "
"Can the clerks be relied upon not to dis
close the secrets of the office?" I asked.
"They must promise to do so on taking
their position," was the reply, "and if they
were caught doing otherwise they would be
at once dismissed. It is a curious thing that
patent lawyers do not invest more in patents.
They see so many plausible things fall
through that they lose faith in everything
except the bard dollars which they receive in
fees."
"Poes an inventor need a lawyerf
(, j(o, in pjne cases out of ten he does not.
If he will write fco f.fco department it will
furnish him with all iniGDal-;n. It will
define for him what consitutes a patoi-afce
idea, and I will tell you how he must set
about getting a patent. He first applies for
the issue oi a patent in writing, and this ap
plication is a petition hioh gives his name
and residence and gives a clear description
of his invention or discovery, specifying ttie
part, iioprovenient or combination for which
he wants a patent. He wij not need to fur
nish a model unless he asked for or., !gfi is
expected to send along a drawing which
shows what Pct asked for is.
All drawings C! W r ph-Htho-graphed

these photo-lithographs are for liQJ
cost twenty-five cents apiece, but are not &T.
till the patents are issued The inventor
must swear that he is the origiual inventor
of the thing for which he asks a patent, and
he sends his affidavit along with the petition
to the commissioner.
"He must send along, also, $15 as a pre
liminary fee, and his entire fee for the com
pletion of the business will bo $35. When
the application comes into the office it is re
ferred at once to the aivision to which it bo-
longs, and it takes its turn. Tho patent ex
aminers are all specialists. They aro high
salaried clerks, and the most of them have
been in their present positions for years.
They can tell at a glance whether a thing is
old or new, though they bave to make the
most thorough investigation in each case.
and that not only in toils country, but in the
books of all other countries. In case there is
any question about the granting of the pat
ent, the question is referred to the commis
sioner, and here it is best for the patentee to
employ a lawyer to present his side of the
case. If the invention is striking and new it
can be gotten through without the employ
ment of a lawyer, and there 13 a great deal of
money wasted in lawyers' fees. These law
yers charge high rates too, but the highest
priced are, as a rule, the cheapest, for they
understand their work, and there is uo slip
ping through the papers which they draw
no. Frank G. Carpenter.
Wandering Sacks of Mail.
Several sacks of mail, which liave wan
dered about on various seas and oceans
for six months, have started again on a
voyage to Panama. The mad was sent
from Chili last January, and contained
letters directed to Colombia and Ecua
dor. After a voyage around Cape Horn
the letters reached New York and were
sent to Panama. The Colombian offi
cials refused to receive the mail, as
cholera was prevalent in Chili, and it
was sent back to New York and thence
to Chili. The sacks were again sent out
irom 11111 in mo time, m due time re
ceived in New York, and have been twice
sent to Panama, but were returned. The
Colombian authorities have finally in
formed the United States postoffice de
partment that the Cliilian mails will now
be received. Cliicago Globe.
Hernliardt and ITamiet's Grave.
Some years ago lime. Bernhardt paid a
visit to Copenhagen, and she naturally
wished to go to Eisinore and see Hamlet'
grave. She was told that Hamlet, being a
mythical creature, had no grave. That mat
tered little to Muie. Bernhardt. Thero ought
to be a grave, and one must be made. Tc
suit her desire, a heap of stones was erected
near a ravine on the woody slope behind the
castle of Eisinore. She paid her visit, and
was content. Ever since then English tour
ists have visited the spot, chipped away, of
course, pieces of the stone and carried them
off as mementoes of the Prince of Denmark.

An Explanation.
What is this "nervous trouble" with
which so many seem now to be afflicted ? If
you will remember a few years ago the
word Malaria was comparatively un
known, today it is as common as any
word in the English language, yet this
word covers only the moaning of another
word'uscd by our forefathers in times
past- So it is used with nervous diseases,
as they and Malaria are intended to cover
what our grandfathers called Biliousness,
and all are caused by troubles that arise
from a diseased condition of the Liver
which in performing its functions finding
it cannot dispose of the bile through the
ordinary channel is compelled to pass it
off through the svstem causing nervous
troubles, Malaria, Bilious . Fever, etc.
You who are suffering can well appreci-
1 1&& cure. We recommend Green's Au
fcUsPFlower., . Its cores are marvelous.
REPUBLICAN PLATFORM.
The republicans of the United States, assem
bled by their delicates Iu national convention,
pauce on the threshold of their proceedings te
honor the memory f their first great leader
and Immortal cliamplon of liberty and the
rights of the people, Abraham Lincoln, mid to
cover also with wreaths ft imperishable re
membrance and gratitude the heroic names of
our later leaders wlio have been more recently
called away from oiircouncllH, Crant. (lariield,
Arthur, Logan and Conkling. May ihelriiiein
orles be failhtully cherished. We also recall
with our greetings and prayer for his recovciy
the name of one of our living herot s whose
memory will be tress med In the history both
of republicans and of the republic. The name
is that of the noble soldier and favorite child
of victory. Philip II. Sheridan.
In the spirit of those great leaders and of our
devotion t human liberty, and with that hos
tility to ail forms of despot Imii ar.d oppression
which is the fundamental Idea of the republi
can party, we send fraternal congratulations
to our fellow Americans of Brazil upon their
great act of emancipation which completed
the aboiition of slavery throuhout the two
American continents. We earnestly hope we
may soon congratulate our fellow citizens of
Irish birth upon the peaceful recovery of home
rule for Ireland.

PU11LIC LAND I.EOISUATIOX.
We reaffirm the policy of appropriating the
public lands of the United States to be home
steads for American citizens and settlers not
aliens, which the republican party established
in 18"2 against the persiste.it opposition of
the democrats in congress which has brought
our great western domain iuto magnificent de
velopenieut. '1 he restoration of unearned land
grants to the public domain for the use of ac
tual settlers, which was begun tinder the ad
ministration of 1'restdent" Arthur should be

has ever restored one acre to the people, but
declare that by the joint action of reptihlicahs
and democrats about fifty million acres of un
earned lands, originally granted for the con
struction of railroads, have been restored to
the public domain in pursuance of conditions
Inserted by the republican parly in the oiigin
al grants. We charge t- e democratic adminis
tration with lailure to execute laws securing to
settlers title to theii homesteads and wjth us
ing appropriations made for that purpose to
harrass lrnocent settlers with spies and prose

ADMISSION OF TRKHITOBIKS,
The government by congress of the territor
ies is based upon necessity only to t he end that
they may become states in the union : there
fore, whenever the conditions of population,

morality are such as to insure stable local gov
ernment therein the people of such territories
should be permitted, a right inherent in tbem,
to form for themselves constitutions and state
governments anil be admitted into the union.
rending preparation for statehood all officers
thereof should be selected Irom bona ride
residents and citizens or the territory wherein
they are to serve. South Dakota should of
right oe immediately admitted as a state in
the union under the constitution framed and
adopted ly her people, and we heartily en
uorse 111c nction 01 tne repunacan senate in
twice passing bibs for her admission. 'J he re
f ;isal of the democratic house of representa

sacred American principle of local self -govern

We earnestly recommend that nromnt action
be taken in ci.rciess iu the ei actment. of such
legislation as will best secure the rehabilita

we protest against the passage by coneress cf

IHilicy of loaning the government's money
without Interest to "pet banks."
KOKKION ItBLATIONS.
The conduct of foreign affairs by the ptesent
administration has been dMiiigui.shed by Inef
ficiency and cowardice. Having withdrawn
from the senate all pending tieaties effected
by republican administrations for the removal
of foreign burdens and restrictions upon our
commeice and for its extension into a better
market, it has neither affected nor proposed
atiy others in their stead. Professing adher
ence to the Monroe doctrlre, it has seen with
idle complacency the extension of foreign in
fluence in Central America ami of foreign trade
everywhere among our neighbors. It has re
fused to charter, sanction or encourage any
American organ izyt ion for constructing the
Nicaragua canal, a work of vtal importance to
the maintenance of the Monroe doctrine and
of our national influence in Central ami South
America, and necessary for the development
of trade with onr Pacific territory, with Soii'h
America, and with the further coasts of the
1'acillc Ocean.
FISHERIES QUESTION.
We arraign the present democratic adminis
tration for its weak and unpatriotic treatment
of the fisheries question, and its pusillanimous
surrenderor all privileges to which our fishery
vrssels are enti: led in Canadian ports under
the treaty of lsls, the reciprocate mariii
tine legislation of isao and comity of nations,
and Ji'hich Canadian fishing vessels receive in
the ports' of the United States. V e condemn
theiolicyof the present administration and
the democratic majority iu Congress towards
our fisheries as unfriendly and conspicl'ously
unpatriotic and as tending to destroy a valuable
national industry and an indispensible resource
of defense against f oreign enemy.
The pame of American applies alike to all
cilizens of" the rejiabli". and imposes upon men
alike the same o'-liat'Oii of obedience to the
laws. At tiie same timecpizeiisiiip is and must
lie the panoply and safeguard of him who weais
it, should shield and protect him whether high
or low. rich or poor, in all his civil rights. It
should and must afford him protection at home
and follow and protect him abroad in whatever
laud he may be on a lawful errand.
CIVII, SERVICE UK FORM.
The :;iftn who abatplo'iod the reonbl lean par
ty in lsH4 and rontiatio to adhere to the fltma
cratic party have tU'serted not only cause,
of hOLest government, but t.r 801111'. "nance, of
freedom :and purity of the ballot, but espec
ially bave deserted the caureof reform in the
civil service. We will not fall to keep our
pledges b.-Htlse ti ey bave broken theirs, or
beeaose tlu-ir candidate has broken bjs. We
therefore repea ovir declaration of ir.fi, towit :
1 he reform of civil service auspiciously begun
under republican administration should be
completed by a further extension of th" reform
system alreudy established by law to all grades
of the servipe to" ;rhlcn it 13 applied. The spir
it and pmpi;BC of reform should be bbsc , ed in
all executive appointments, and all laws at
vartence with the object of existing reform h g
islatlon should be lepealed. and that the gan
gers to free institutions which lurk in the pow
er of official patronage may be wisely and ef
fectively avoided.
The gratitude of the nation to the defenders
of the union cannot be assured except by laws.
The legudation of congress honId conform to
the pledges made by a loyal people. u.d be so
enlarged und extended as to prov'de':ftgaiiist
the possibility that any man who honorably
wore the federal uniform shall become an In
mate of an almshouse or dependent on private
charity. In the presence of an overflowing
treasury it would b" a ppblic scandal to do less
for those whose valorous service preserved the
government. We denounce the hostile spirit
shown by President. Cleveland (n his pn.nerous
vetoes of measures for pension relief, aiid the
action of the democratic house of representa
tives in refusing evm consideration of general
pension legislation. "
In support i;f the principles herewith enun
