Tne Tumune hn on several occasions re- ported the progress inde in the struggle be tween Washburn, Moen & Co,, of Worcester, ‘Mass., and the farmers of Iowa and other Western States over the question of barbed’ wire tor fences. The present stato of the case In Lowa Is about as follows: Last year the Washburn Company brought sult before the Unitew States District Court of. Northern Ilnols : against cere tain manufacturers to restrafu them -from making barbed wire, the clnim being that they were Infringing the patents of the Com- pany. That caso was deented by Judge Blodgett of the Court in this district In favor. of the monopoly. Tho farmers of Towa, however, dll not accept this decision as conclusive, and ‘thoy ‘formed a defensive organization. ‘They. did not velleve the patents held by. tha. Washburn -Com- “pany” covered alt the barbed = wire manufactured, Tho farmers’ society thare- upon purchased an outstanding patent and established works for the manufacture of barbed wire under that patent, Washburn has, however, applted to the Uniteid States Court of Iowa for nn Injnuction to restrain the nusoclation from making or solllng any wire under that patent. ‘This application will be decided at the October mecting of the Court. Be od ‘The fluancinl “difference to conaumers In- volved in the decision of this casv Is that the Jowanasociation offers to furnish the barbed wire to consumers at six and onv-hulf cents ner pound, whila tho Washburn Company stipulated in all its Heonses to sell that the wiro shail not be sold at less than 10 cents per pound, As one ton of barbed wire will make two miles of three-strand fenco, tho difference ln the cost of « fence is $35 per mile, In 1830 the Washburn Company sold 40,000 tons of wire, or equal ta $0,000 miles of fence, for which $1,400,000 above a fair prico was cotlected of the farmers, “Fhis claim for a monopoly fs wholly di- ‘vested of all meritorious consideration, and the claimants have no warrant to ask any reward for Inventlon. They purehased a patent grmited. for an fmprovement onan old and ‘well-known invention, and under that patent no fence was ever constructed, In the meantime scores of other patents were Issued, each for an improvement, and tho Washburn Company purchased several of theso patents, and then bya trick, which, however legal, Is 4 dishonesty tolerated by our patent Jaws, surrendered all these patents and tools ont a new and consolidated one covering all of them. ‘Tho reault was that a monopoly wag crented, and the Wash+ bitrn Company, which never invented any- thing, was able to apply tha screws to all tho manufacturers of barbed wire In the country, and was able to bring them to terms,- It was stated Inst winter that a royalty of one-half neent per pound would bean ample anda most profitable, compensation for the use of the patent, We have seen that the wire can ‘be produced and sold profitably at lx and a half conts por pound, whtle the Washburn Company will not permit its wire to be sold Atless than 10 cents per pound, The State of Iowa, us our correspondent stated dn lila letter published yesterday, Is’ flooded with pamphiots addressed-to the peor ple of that Stato, setting forth tho high and meritorious claims of American inventors, unt the Justice and honvusty of sowarding and ——_—_—_ .T'ntn Boers are once more fn possession of Yielr country, tho retrocession of tha Trmns- vant having been formally effected, and thelr Covernment has Issued a efreutar announ- clug the establishment of the South African Republic.

As the slavery question was one of the prominent causes of the Inte war, this éon- cession is an important one, The release of tho Boers from British rule, however, does not give much satisfaction in England, though the criticism !s more sentimental than otherwise, anid grows principally out of | the renson that peace was made with the Boers attor thoy had Intlicted a serious de- feat upon English arms, and when'reinforea- Promptly retrieved the defeat, and in al! probability have completely overrun tho Transvaal, ———e Ps ‘Tite Popes of Romo have been from time immemorial the defenders of constituted authority. They have rendered to Cresar the things that. were Cresar’s, and it has some- times seemed to thelr most devoted children that they have accorded to Cresor things that were not his by any valid title. ‘The bull at- tributed to Popo Adrian by which Henry U, | was empowered to seize Ireland lins’ long been n subject of dispute between the Na- tlonnlist and British parties, On the one hand, it has been matntained that the bull in question foreclosed all Roman Catholic op- position to Lritish rule in Iretand; and, on the other, it has been aflirmed that tne bull ig a rank forgery. ‘The Irish Ioman Cnth- olics have not generaily been willing to avail themselves of the ensiest avenue of escapo from thelr dilema by denying the authority of any foretgn power whatsoever to dispose ofacountry which it never owned. ‘Chat is tho true answer to all arguments relating to Papal bulls about. Iretand. The Popo has not and never had by right any temporal Jurisdiction oyer Ireland, His dominion was purely spiritual, and Adrian’s bull handing Irojand over to Ilenry IL, was of no account, if it was real, ‘The genuineness of Atrian’s bull is not, however, 0 matter of nuch mo- ment, since it has been found that Joho XXUL Issued one of similar Import. A cor- respondent of Tue Trimune hus unearthed in the Pubile Library of this city, smoug the national inanuseripts of Irelaud, a fac-siulle ofthis bull, a transintion of which was printed In our issue of yesterday, Pope John directed the Archbishops of Dublin and Cashet and tho Dean of Dublin to dis- courage ail resistance in Ireland to the authority of the then King of England, Ed- ward IL ‘The prelates addreaged wora au- thorized and directed in cases of contumacy gnd continued rebellion to’ excommunicate the disobedient ones, ‘Tiils bull, which wag issned, in 1317, was more important than that of Adrfan, inasmuch: ns Mt had an Immediate political effect. Edward Brueo, of Scotland, had then Invaded tho North of Ireland, and had .called upon the Irish people to ratty around Is standard. ‘They were enger to do so, but wera restrained by the authority and Influence of the Chureh, and the consequence was that Bruco was defvated and driven out of Ireland, Jt ought to require no: argument to show thnt the Popes have been the ‘blest deféndors of British rule In Ireland for at least gix cent- urles, Examples of interference from Rome on behalf of English authority are so many and some of them so recent that argu iment onfthis point is Imposalble. A state- ment of tho reasons for thia !nterterenco would occupy too much space and perhups not be agreei to on all stdes as corrunt. But itis evident that love of the Britlsh charac- terand methods of government is not one of thuse reasons, $s c - ee BUNSBY-WELLER-BOOK WALTER. ‘The Democratic canilidate for Governor of | Ohfo, Bookwater, or Brookwalter, or Brenk- water, reminds us of tho elder Weller, Ho ‘finds his views on the tariff’ as. troublesome to hin as his late wifo’s fortune was to the veteran conchman, When the old gentle man tendered the money to: Mr. Pickwick, Sum explained the reason of lls father’s and his own desire to bo refleved of tho re- “sponsibility of caring for tha Iegucy, “This here nonoy,” sald Sam, with-n little heslta- tlon, “he’s anxlous, to .put’ someveres vera he knows I'll be safe, and Tin wery anxious too, for if he keeps it he'll gon lendin’ itto somebody, or Inwesting property ti horses, .or droppin’ his pocketbook down a alry, or akin’. a Egypthan mummy of hisself in same yay or nnother,’? . z Mr, Bookwalter’s tariff views eyvliently embarrassed hii.

The pedple of the South and Southwest, as woll as of the Enstern States, will in due time find tho ndvisability, for economical tensons, of adopting the barbed-wire fonce exclusively. ‘Tho difference of $70 per ton of wire, when the consumption for fencing will averngo perhaps 400,000 tons per annum for the next twenty years, isone which will appeal to tho interests of the whole country. The Iowa farmers propose to prosecute their appeal from this monopoly In the high- est Court In tho fund. They bellove thata strained construction has been put on the law by the Chicngo. local Court. They will nak an authoritative decision whether a ‘monopoly, obtained through a trick or sklll- ful dodge under the patent laws, shall be tolerated to tho oppresston of the whole country year after yenr, and whether, even If the monopoly be confirmed /there Is not somo limit to the oxnctions that’ can be demanded by those who control It. HARTMANN'S MURDER (ASE, , The reply which Secretary Blaine made to tho attorney of Hartmann, the Russian mur- derer who passed a few days in this country on his way to Canada, was dignifiod and proper. He simply took the ground that no- body had the right to ask the Government. what tt would do Ina hypothetical case, and that he, as Seerctary of State, would violate alt propriety in saying now what the course of the Government would be in ensa Hart mann’s oxtradition wore asked by the Rus- stan Government: at 9 time when the mur- dorer was within American jurisdiction, just asn Judge of the Supreme Court would be derelict of duty In saying in advande what his declsion would bo.if Hartmann, when arrested, should apply to him for releaso un- der the Habeas-Corpus act. ‘This was a fit- ting answer to an linpertinent question, At ‘the same time, there onght not to bo any doubt that the American Governntunt, upon tho formal demand of the Russian Cov- ormment, would deliver Hartmann to be tried for murders he committed if ha wera within the territory of tho United States, Extradition. fs not a matter of treaty atone; it f$ fully recognized by International law. AJartmann ia a corfessyl murderer, and there shoula bo no asylum for murderers on the {nce of the carth. Ho did not assnsinate tho Czar, but in an attempt to do so he blew up o train of cars and slaughtered many people, He knew that many persons would meet, death os a result of his mine nt Mos- cow, whether the Czar wore among the num- ber or not, and he deliberately and maliclous- ly proceeded with the work. It was a devil- Ish plece of business, without any extenu- ation which war affords, and without any, political bearing so farns Hartmann’s vice ‘thns were concerned. The Amerienn people have no desire to shield such a villain trom the, punishment which ought to be visited upon him, ae Z Gulteau’s crime suggests a parallal which will bring the case home to avery American citizen, Supp6sé,Guifeau, instead of, shoot- ‘ing nt the President; had constructed 2 mine under the rallrond track near the Baltimore & Ohio dopot, and exploded s bub of nitro- celycerine under the traln which he supposed tho President would take on {ho morning of duly 3. Suppose the President had not taken that train, or had been in a rear car and cs- eaped the exploslou, but that forty or fifty other peraons had been killed by Guitenu’s mine, Suppose, then, Gulteau had escaped and mado his way to Russia, and there boast- ed .of his ‘net and purpose., Does any ong. doubt that- the Russian Govern- inent would deliver up such g man to Amer- lean ,authorities, to be tried for murder, upon propér application? Under suen clr- cumstances Guiteau would ayo been sent back to America In chains by tho most ex- peditious route, Tho Amurican . Govern: “nent could not do less in the cuse of Lbrt- Inann, which 1s precisely tike the hypothet- ical case we linve stated, . Hartmann, by hls own confession, is a monster, Any man who can consplra and work to the destruction ot hundreds of hu- tian beings, with a conjectural end of reach- Ing somo particular’ porsan, is a fiend whom tho world would be well rld of, and it is pre- posterous to expoct any sympathy for such screature among any clvilized people, This {sa caso with which politics has no counec- tlon. THE AVENGERS ON GUITEAU'’S TRACK. Guiteau seems’ to. have reconsidered his purpose to apply for release on ball, if, In-! deed, heuctually contomplated such a course. Itis probably well for lim that ho lins deter- inined not to push tho {mpertinent demand, and his abnudonment of the project Is proba- bly dus to his own consciousness that his life would not be worth a counterfelt nickel from the moment. hoe should bo doprived of tho :protaction of the jall:and the soldiers who guard It, a fy Shag t é, ‘Chore is no doubs that thero aro many men In this country who‘ have Sntlexibly deter- mined to Kill Guijeaw if he shail be set at Uberty, ‘There is atleast one such man In Chicago.
