PATENT OFFICE ANNUAL REPORT Commissioner Shows Great Increase in Work Done and Receipts of Money —_—— MOST SURPLUS SINCE 1897 Present Space Is Utterly Inadequate — More Room and Larger Force Needed A statement of the business of the Patent Office for the year ended De- cember 31, 1903, of more than unusual interest was transmitted to Congress recently by the Commissioner of Pat- ents through the Secretary of the In- terior. The law requires the Commis- sioner of Patents to present a report of the business of his office for each The present Commis- sioner, Frederick 1. Allen, has departed from the usual custom in each of his reports so far, and the document sent | out by him to-day has a number of in- teresting features. He states, In part: “The business transacted by the Pat- ent Office during the calendar year 1903 has again exceeded all previous rec- ords, as appears in the foregoing ta- bles. The preceding statement show- ing the number of patents and certifi- cates of registration issued from year to year shows that uniform growth which indicates that the business of | this office is an accurate index of gen- eral conditions of prosperity in the in- dustrial arts of this country, and the comparison hereinbefore made between the chief financial and work elements of this office for the years 1899 and 1903 permits the rate of this increase to be accurately stated. From this statement it appears that in four years the aver- age increase of business, as shown by the receipts, expenditures, applications filed, issues and copies of patents and records furnished, is 23 per cent, and this work has been accomplished with an increase of 8.8 per cent in the num- ber of employes.

Increase Will Continue. “There is no reason to expect that the increase shown in the foregoing tables may not be found in the ensu- ing year, and it is evident that the force of employes will not be able to meet the requirements of an indefinite further increase of the work unless their number shall be correspondingly increased. Already there are delays in the transaction of our work and haste in the execution of other portions of the work, which point to the impera- tive necessity for more employes. “The increase in work has made it necessary to organize a new division, known as the manuscript and photo- lithograph division, and there should | be added to the present force a new | chief of division and assistant chief i for the purposes of this new division. I have also asked for ten additional clerks of class one at $1200 per annum, to meet our most urgent necessities. “The increase of the appropriation for the scientific library of this office from $2000 to $2500, made by the ap- propriation bill of last year, was a step in the right direction, and if this | sum can be further increased so as to | furnish $4000 per annum for the pur- poses of this library and for the trans- | portation of publications of patents to [ foreign governments I think the lib- |rary can be maintained in a condition.| of efficiency. | “One cannot look at the progress of the Patent Office since its present sys- tem of work was inaugurated by the act of July 4, 1836, without seing that it has followed closely the develop- ment of the industrial arts in this country during all of this period, and it should require no extended argu- ment beyond these figures to show that the system which has, accomplished these results without expense to the Government, but which has, on the contrary, furnished a net balance of “5’682'5‘0 61, should be furnished with | room and employes 5o as to permit its future progress in the same measure as the expected growth of the arts in this country. Germany Follows Our Example. “It was to me a matter of great in- terest last summer to be shown at Ber- lin the plans of the German govern- ment for an extension of their patent office, which has been the first in Eu- rope- to follow the procedure of this comntry in the matter of granting patents by the establishment of a sys- tem of preliminary ~examinations. Lands have been purchased by the German government and plans for buildings are now in hand which are to provide accommodations for two thou- sand employes, and it was stated to me that such accommodation it was thought would suffice for their neces- sities until the year 1920.

If they have concluded that this system, originated by us, lles 80 close to the national welfare that they have decided to make great ex- penditures to possess thLemselves of its benefits, funds should not be wanting in this country to keep our system up to its present position of pre-eminence. The stimulus given to the industrial arts by the hope of reward which the patent system presents to the inventor is conceded by the thinking men of most civilized countries to-day, and the rapid progress of Japan has been ac- companied by the adoption of a patent system in which they were largely in- fluenced by impressions derived from an examination of the patent system of the United States. “At the present time the space pro- COOK BOOK OFFER TO CLOSE AUGUST 30, 1904 The Call's Cook Book prem- fum offer will close on August 30, 1904, and all readers of this paper who desire a copy of this household treasure should not fail to place their order im- e o be offered to Call subscribers at the exceptionally low rate of 50 cents per copy.

The workings of this system have already demon- strated, not only that we can have citizens outside of the regular army trained for duty n war, but that we can have a body of volunteer officers ready for service, between whom and the officers of the regular army have been created by intimate assoclation and mutual helpfulness those relations of con- fidence and esteem without which no army can be eftective. McKINLEY’S ADMINISTRATION. The/first administration of McKinley fought and won the war with Spain, put down the insurrection in the Philippines, annexed Hawall, | rescued the legations in Peking, brought Porte | Rico into our commercial system, enacted a | protective tarifft and established our national currency on the firm foundations of the gold d by the financlal legislation of the xth Congress, The present administration has reduced taxa- tion, reduced the public debt, reduced the | annual interest charge, made effective progress In the regulation of trusts, fostered business, promoted agriculture, bullf up the navy, re- organized the army, resurrected the militia system, inaugurated a new policy for the preservation and reclamation of public lands, given civH government to the Philippines, established the republic of Cuba, bound it to us by ties of gratitude, of commerclal interest | and of common defense, swung open the closed gateway of the Isthmus, strengthened the Monroe doctrine, ended the Alpskan boundary | dispute, protected the integfity of China, | opened wider its doors of trade, advanced the principle of _arbitration and promoted peace among the nations. ‘We challenge judgment upon this record of effective performance in legislation, in exe- cution and in administration. The work is not fully done; policies are nof\| completely wrought out; domestic questions still press continually for solution; other trusts must be regulated; the tariff may presently recelve revision, and if so, should receive it at the hands 'of the friends and not the enemies of the protective eystem; the few Philippine Government has only begun to de- velop ita plans for the benefit of that long- neglected country; our flag floats on the isthmus, but the canal is vet to be bulilt; peace does mot yet reign on earth, and con- siderate firmness backed by strengih are etill needful in diplomacy. The American people have now to say whether policies shall be reversed or committed to unfriendly guardians; whether performance, which now proves itself for the benefit and honor of our country, shall be transferred to unknown and perchance to feeble hands. NO CHANGE OF POLICY. No dividing line can be drawn athwart the course of this successful administration. The fatal 14th of September, 1901, marked no change of policy, no lower level of achievement. The buliet of the assassin robbed us of the friend we loved; it took away from the peopls the President of their choice; it deprived civi- lization of a potent force making always for righteousness and for humanity. But the fabric of free institutions remained unshaken. The government of the people went on. The great party that Willlam McKinley led wrought still in the spirit of his example. His true and loyal successor n to burden cast upon him. Widely different in temperament and _methods, he approved himselt of the same elemental virtues—the same fundamental bellefs. With faithful and revering memory, he has executed the pur- poses and_continued unbroken the policy of President McKinley for the peace, prosperity and honor of our beloved country. ~ And he has met all new occasions with strength and resolution and farsighted wisdom. As we gather in this convention, our hearts g0 back to the friend—the never-to-be-for- gotten friend, whom when last we met we acclaimed with one accord as our universal cholce to bear a second time the highest honor in the mation's gift—and back still, memory goes through many a year of leadership and loyalty. How wise and_how skillful he was! How modest and self-effacing! How deep his insight into the human heart! How swift the intui- tions of his sympathy! How compelling the charm of his gracious presence! He was so unselfish, so thoughtful of the happiness of others, so genuine a lover of his country and his kind. And he was the kindest and tender- est friend who ever grasped another's hand. Alas. that his virtues did plead in vain against cruel fate! Yet we may rejoice, that while he lived he was crowned with honor; that the rancor of party strife had ceased; that success in his great tasks the restoration of peace, the ap- proval of his countrymen, the affection of his friends, gave the last quiet months in his home at Canton repose and contentment. And with McKinley .we remember. Hanna with affection and sorrow—his great lieutenant. They are together again. THE DUTIES OF THE HOUR. But we turn as they would have us turn, to the duties of the hour, the hopes of the future; we turn as they would have us turn, to prepare ourselves for struggle under the same standard borne in other hands by right of true inheritance. Honor, truth, courage, purity of life, domestic virtue, love of country, loyalty to high ideals—all these combined with active intelligence, with learning, with experi- ence iIn affairs. with the conclusive proof of competency afforded by wise and conservative administration, by great things already done and great results already achieved—all these we bring to the people with another candidate. Shall not these have honor in our land?
