Smith said if the bill became a law it would not establish a saloon in every town because the regulations were t0o strict_and wherever the sentiment was opposed to such fnstitu tions no license would be issucd. Taking up the question of constitutionality he said the question had been decided in other states favorable to local option and he was confident no constitutional pro- vision would be violated by the enactment of the proposed bill. Concerning the resubmis sion of the constitutional amendment, he wind such a question shou® have no place in the fundamental law of the state and there- fore he was not in favor of incorporating a provision which would be likely to e set aside at any time. He announced that ho woulid not vote for any such proposition Senator Smith closed here and Senator Lewis began speaking. Sonator Lewis took up the Schmidt bill in detail and spoke against its provisious, after which he presentod an array of statistics on educational, industrial and criminal mat- ters, and claimed they proved thav Jowa under prohibition had been moro prosperous than _under license. He finished shortly after 12 o'clock and the senate adjourned till tomorrow. Tt1s sortled that the republican senators will votesolidly against the Schmidat bill, but itis rumored here that after that they will vote as they plonse. 1t is stated that the re- publican senatorial caucus voted 15 10 4 against giving option to cities and 17 to 2 azainst giving it to counties, and it 18 rumored that Senators Gatch and Hrower voted tor both provositions. \What two other senators favored option for cities is nov stated. [tis uow evident that the scu will ot vote on the Sehmidt bill _this wee and probably not until next Wednesday. “This delay is agreed to by mutual consent of the factions.

Several Carroll People Declare That They Have Been Swindled by Him, JARROLL, Ia., Feb, 18.—|Speeial Telegram o Tuk Bee.|—This city is excited over the sudden disappearance of O. A. Kentner, until yesterday president of the Citizens State bank. It bas been known privately for some time that his affairs were in bad shape, but matters did not reach the public until yesterday, when the sale of his interest 10 A. W. Patterson was announced.

Crowell, manager of the Cedar Rapids oatmeal factory, one of the largest in the country, was seen today in regara to the articlo in the Chicago papers of Wednesday, which declared that the oat meal trust had to scll its product at less than cost aud that disaster seemed to throaten it. Mr. Crowell sall that whilo competition was vory sharp at this time and the price of oatmeal is very low yet 1tis not true that they have been selling their products for les than cost. The company held its meeting in Akron, O, a few days ago and the reports submitted indicated that it was in a prosper ous condition financially and otherwise, Everybody seemed pleasod with the resuits of the vear.

Plainly, it can bo no light thing to keep all this mass of business in order. “As aryas a futent office report” has become a proverb, Jut theso reports, extending through hun areds of bulky volumes, contain tho facts by whose light “every new A‘umcn'mu for a patent must be decided. ‘The person who exnects to bo of any assistanco in facilitating the progress of a tew iaca toward govern: mont recoguition must know how to thread their dusty byways and uncover all the old ideas to which the new comer may bear a famly resemblance. Tho inventor can bardly ever do this, Kven it ho happens to be a resident of Wash- ington his familiarity with the details of patent office procedireis rot likely to be sufficient to enable bim to accomplish any- thing for himself,and if he lives at a distance of courso he can do nothing. ~ Au attorney is always required. But not even the pensioners have suffere- more from the operations of uascrupuious at torueys than the inventors. The average in ventor is poor, and not acoustomed to the tecnnicalities of law or business. He wauts o patent, and he takes that term at its faco value. To him a patent is a patent, neither more nor less, He reads the advertisementof u plausible agent who promises to get patents in quick time at low rates, payable only in case of success. Hle sends on his application and in due timo is gladdened by tho roceipt of an impressive docnment, garished with gilt seals and blue ribbons and announcing 1tself 10 bo a patent, And so it is, bat when the owner uuaor- takes to put his invention on the market ho finds that he has nothing to sell. The attorney has saved uim- self trouble by putting in a claim covering 1y somo ouo trivial point and the patent geanted on that point is worthless as a pro tection to the essential features of the inven- tion. An hovest and capabie attorney would have made his claim as broad as possible; he would bave argued every point with the examiners, and when he finally obtained a patent it would have been as valuable as the merits of the invention would permit. Tk Bree Bureau of Claims is not afrad of trouble. Contrary to 1ts custom in land, Indian depredation and pension cases it does not tako patent cases on contigent fees, and no othor reputable patent uttorneys do. When an apolication is intrusted 1o it, it gives the subject caroful and intellizont study, and then files an itemized claim covering as many poiunts as can possibly be found in the invention, [t argues as many of theso as may be deniod and in the ona it secures a patent. comprehensive euough to hold its own in the courts and in the money market. 1f any inventor should b inclined to ques tion tho importancegof broad claims 1 apply ing for patents, ne may profitably consider the methods by which Alexander Graham Bell has been raised within the past {ifteen years from poverty to s piace in the tinnucil world alongside of Jay Gould and Russell Suge. ot A& NEEDED BUREAU.

Detailed Information Ooncerning Laws and Offfcial Procedure, FACTS FOR THE GUIDANCE OF INVENTORS The Facilities Afforded Patent Applicants by The Bee Burenn—Prompt Service and Adequate Protection—tm- portant Instractions, To the inventor the all-important question presents itself: ‘“How can I secure a patent?” and to this Tue Bee Bunrav offers the following explanation : Inventors as a class are not familiar with the laws under which the letters patent are granted, the forms and practico in the patent office at Washington, and the technical methods of preparing specifica tions aud claims 80 as to properly protect their in- ventions against infringers, yot the value of the patent and oven its validity dopend largely upon the careful and expert pre- paration of the case. Specifications must be drawn to fully disclose the invention, to dts- tinguish between what Is new and what is old. The employment of counsel skilled in patent law Is thoreforo usually @ prerequi- sito to the proper prosecution of a case and a grant of a valuable patent. Many inventors suffer thoe loss of benefits that should be derfved from valuable inven tions owing to insufficiont protection by patents procured through incompetent or carcless agents, For What Granted. Under the laws of the United States let ters patent are grauted toany person who has invented or discovered any new and use ful art machine, manufacture or composition of matter, or has invented any new or useful improvement thereon. Term of Patent, A patent is grantod for seventeen years, during which time the owner has sole and exclusive right to make, use and sell the patented invention How to Proceed. For economic reasons, befors making ap plication to the patent oftice for a patent, the novelty and patentability of the invention should bo ascertained, because, if the inven- tion is not new or not patentable, wn unneces- sary oxpense Is incurred by filing an ap- plication on which a pateut” can never be granted. The first thing to be done is to find out whetber or not the invention is new and patentable, For advice on this point it is necessary to sond to T Bee Bureau a rough or complete sketeh or a photograph of the invention, to- gother with a brief description thereof, set ting forth the object of the improvements, the arrangement of the parts and tho ad vautages attained. While a model is very seldom necessary, yet it is often of great as sistance, The ‘iatter can be made of any cheap material, wnd will be returned if a re- quest is mado,to that effect. Upou receipt 'of the data mentioned sufti cient to epablt’ the fnvention 10 be under- scod, our counsel will at onceexamine there 1410, aua wiil adyise without churee what 13 the best coursa 3o pursue, and will expross an opinion, rrom their knowledge of the arts aud patents alreéady grantec, as to the pat- eatability of tlie fhvention. ‘Splcial Search. In 'tis connection it is recomwended that the best and safest course is to have a special scarch made in_the patent oftice to ascertain whether or not the invention has besn here- tofore patented. The advautage of such o search is that if no anticipating patent is aiscovered . phe application can_ be filed with a greater degree of certainty, whoreas if the iivention i3 found to be old all furtver exgense is avoided. The cost of aseurch of thi nhture is 5, ‘and with the report of the resuit shereof the inventor will be furnished wich copies of such pitents, if uny. as embrace bis idens. ILis much bet: tor to have'this search made in tho outset before incurring any expense whstever re- garding the application for patent. 1f 1t is found thut the invention is new ana vatentabie the client is advised to proceed with the filing of an application for patent, ond will then ba requested to remit $15 to cover the first government fee and $5 in pay- ment of cost of drawing, when one is neces- sary. As soon as possible after the receipt of this remittance the speci- fication of tLe iuveation will = be curefully prepared and forwuarded to the inventor, togethor with forms for apoli cation for patent ready for execution. Upon return of the latter the case will be promptly filed in the patent office, and notice will ba sent when action is had thereon, aod also of the nature of such action. Thme Required, ‘The examiniug corps of the patent office is composed of thirty-two divisions, among which the applications are divided according to the oficial classification. The condition of the work in theso various divisions varies from one to five months 1 arrears. Hence no specific timo can be stated for tho pend- ency of ull cases. After an application for paténtis granted six months ars allowed in which to pay the final government fee, #20. About threé weeks after the pagment of this Hual feo the patent will issue and be mailed to the inventor, The Bureau Charges, Consistent _with the spirit in which this Bureau was formed. it is proposed 1o do the work as near the actual cost as will protect the business from loss. Although counsel are retalned at heavy expense to the Bureau, vet it is the wish to charge in ordinary cases only the minimum foe ot 325 Howover, in cases requiring extra care, time and labor, tie fee will be proportionately increascd, but clients will always bo advised i ad vance should such increase of feo be found necessary.

A trade mark is & favoiful or arbitrary do vice or symbo! useit to distinguish the goods of a particular manufacture. The owner of every trade mark is entitled to register tho same, no matter how long it has boen in use. Thelife of the certificate of registration is thirty years and may bs reuewed for a like period. The government fee, pavable on fillag each application for registration of trade mark, is #3. The Bureaw's charge is 25 Tabels, Tabels of all kinds, designed to ba attached to manufactured articles or to bottles, boxes, ote., containing them, have heretofore been received for registration at the patent oftico and a certificate issued accordingly, Under a very recent decision of the supreme court of the United States it is hela that there is 00 authority in law for granting certificatos of rogistration of lubels which simply desig nate or aescribe the articles to which they are attached, and which have no value sepa- rated therefrom, A label to be entitled to registration must kave by itsoif some vaiue &s a composition, at least as serving some purpose other than as a mero designation or advertisement, Many now holding cer tificates of rogistration of labels are totally without any protection whatever, Muny regls tered lubels comprise subject matter register. ableas trade marks.

The total cost thoreof is abont §, including all fees. When the author or publisher of a book wishes to copyright thesawe he should, bafore publication, send us a copy of the title page, or inform us as to what the same cor tains, e will then procure the necessary vrotection, Within ten days after publica- tion two copies of the best edition should be forwarded to us or divect to the lbrarian of congress, Failure 1o do this renders tho copyrizht void, and a penalty of $2 is in- rred, Interferences, An interference is a judicial proceeding in stituted under the dircetion of the commis sionor of patents to enable him to determine tie question of priority of iuvention between nval claimants, Tue Bee Burear, recog- nizing the fact that extraovdinar wnd sKill are requisite on the part of an attorney in charge of a case in iuterfercnce, has at it command counsel prepared to conduct such proceedings from the very inception down to a final determination of the merits of the cause. Testimouy will also bo taken under our direction in any part of the United States, While no specitic sum can be set down as appticable to all interforence cases alike, yeu tho ciirge will always be as rea sonable as possible, Infringements, Tho question whether or uot one patent infringes another is the very soul of all patont litigation. The questions involved aud of the most iutricate nature. s umatter of such ereat import auce that 1o one should over claim that an other is‘infrinuing on his rights, or, likewise, no attention should be pid to the claims of infringemont by others, until the questions involved are carefuily passed upon by reli avle counsel. For such services the charges are atways fair and reasonable. Foreign Patents, In addition to” the Bureau's facilities for attending to the interests of 1its inventor- patrons before the United States putent office and courts, 1t is. also enabled to procure patents for inventions in all countries of the world, in many of the foreign countries, notably Canada, England and Germany, patents for inventions previousiy patented in this country are looked upon with great favor ana inventors are there very frequently more likely to realizo profits from their in ventions than they arc even in this country. The cost of foreigh patents varies with diffe ent cases, but as a geveral rule the cxpense of procuring paterts, covering all charges, is avout as follows : Canadu, §0; England, §0; Germany, §K0: I'rance, $%0; Spain, £X0° Belgium, 860 Ad ditional information regarding the cost, ete., in any foreign couutry will be furnished by letter on application, Important Warning, It seems remarkable thatin this enlight- ened ugo it becomes the auty of every reli- abie aud, trustwortny atlorney in patent mat- ters to advise his clients to bewaro of the muny sharks whe set out with the apparent tantiou of defrauding inventors immedi ately after the 1ssuo of their patents. When u patent appears in the Patent Ofiicial Ga- zetle patentees are besel with inumerabie offers, solicitations, reque ., some. pre tending to want to pure patents, while others offer to tuke un interest therein under promise of procuring foreign pa ents The sole object 0f these people 15 Lo ovtain money from inventors, and they never make tho slightest enaeuvor to carcy out their groundiess and worthless promisecs. One of the schemes often resorted to by these sharks 15 to invite patentees to join a fictitions association, under the pretexi that By paving the mombership fee the patented invention will be widely published in a paver which does ot cxist, and that a salesm will travel over the country uutil the salo of the patent is effected, and this, 1t is needloss w add, is never accomplished. Regarding The chatges made by Tue Ber Bureaww or Crains for services in patent cases und those of an analogous nature have been fixed at the lowest possible rate consistent with the degreo of skill and talent we have to employ in the prosecution of these cases. Somo attorucys might profess to secure pat ents at somewhat lower rates than ours, but we insist that the work canuot be done prop- erly for less than we charge, It is one thing 10 procure a patent, but it is quite another to obrain one which will embrace all the claims which the state of the art will permit. Tnis latter requives a bigh dexrce of skill, long experience, technical know!ledge and spezial qualitications, which must be apparent to every intelligent inventor, It is our constant aim to procurc u patent which will include every claim to whicih an inventor is entitled and also one that will stand a test in courts, us far as it is possible to do so. Inventors who once intrust a case to the Burean's care realize the fo of these remarxs. »n rinbefore mentioned, models are d in the patent offica except in in- or complicated cases. But ut the same time, wheu an invention can be betier oxplained by a model it is well to send the same to us. A model should always be of a s1ze not larger than one square foot, and in sending the samo by express the charges should be propaid. Auy nformation not herein contained will ba cheerfully furnished upon application, free of charge.
