Secretary of State McGafl'ey in
his biennial report lias this to say
regarding the election laws.
The election law, as at present
construed, makes of the office of
Secretary of State a kindofjjutiior
court, to hear and decide upon
objections to the filing and print
ingot nominations, tickets, etc.
These quasi judicial functions and
responsibilities, thus imposed, are
repugnant to the character, and
are in no just or wise sense legiti
mate to the business of this office.
It should be the duty of the Sec
retary* ol State to file any certifi
cate “which is in apparent con
formity,” or better, ‘•substantial
conformity,” without question.
With this act his duty in this be
half should end, unless otherwise
directed by some court oUcompe
1 tent jurisdiction. If anv be a;;
grieved at the manner o! •' li
charg ■ ol L ' 'i > •
them appeal to the court, and
s-cu 'o, jf'tio-y can, an ./«k*i up- •••
the Secretary *ol State directing
him what to uo in the particular
( matter in controversy. No judic
j ial lunctinn, m any manner to be
j avoided, should be imposed upon
1 a purely ministerial office.
I would also most emphatically
recommend that the emblem be
abolished, and that nothing appear
on the ballot save and except the
name of the candidate with the
office to which he is nominated
and the party that, he represents.
Since tiie emblem is but u symbol
of ignorance, the quicker this is
done 1 lie better. The Secretary
of State has collected sample
ballots from nearly every state in
the Union, and these ho will be
pleased to submit for the inspect*
I ion of anyone desiring to institute
'comparisons with a view to
simplifying and improving our
present form of ballot. Theenor
mous cost of these ballots, and
the opportunities they a lim’d for
deceiving and confusing the voter
are defects deserving the most
caretul consideration.

Make Your Own Lantern.
Your home is incomplete wit bout
it, and the price is within reach of
all. 1 ordered one lor my own use
and it was so handy and convenient
I went to taking orders for them
and sold 51 in one day making over
$5 clear. It gives a beautilul white
light, chimneys never break from
heat, it is always clean and ready.

I saw in your paper that a 13 year
old boy made $1.25 the first hour he
worked selling the I'erfection Met
al Tip Lampwick. I ordered a sam
ple and went to work and the first
week I cleared $lO, the second
week I cleared sls. 1 expect to run
up to $25 a week in the near future,
as the Perfection Metal Tip Lamp
wick makes such a beautiful white
light and does away with smokey
chimneys and bad odor and saves
oil, it is easy to sell. If you wish to
try it send 13 two cent stamps to
.Miss A. M. Fritz, Station A. St. Lou is

A Good Wind Mill—Make it Yourself
I saw one of the People’s wind
mills which I saw recommended in
your paper recent lv.it cost me $9.40
and is a splendid mil!', my well is
deep, but it pumps all right and
with very lit tle wind; the neighbors
all like it. and as I am a k ml ot car
penter. I have agreed to put up
nine mills already, on which I can
make a nice profit, and there are
many others lor whom lean put up
mills this fall. I don't see why ev
ery farmer should not have a wind
null, when they can make it them
selves for less t Inin $10: anvone can
get diagrams and complete direc
tions for making the wind mill by
sending 18 t wo-rent stamps to pay
postage etc., to Francis Casev, St.
Louis, Mo., and t here can he dozens
of them put up in any locality by
anyone that lias energy to do so.

The Real Secret of the ifnparnllelcd succeSi
of Tiik Chicago I)a:i.y News may be
found in two (listingi/ishin ' characteristics,
which more than anything else have con
tributed to its remarkable growth.
• First :—it is a Daily Paper far Duty People.
The jicople of the busy West appreciate keen
ly the necessity of an intelligent knowledge
of the world’s daily doings, 1 t:t they are too
busy to waste valuable time i:i .scotching
through a cumbrous “ blnnkct-slicct ” news
paper for the real news cf nit, literature
science, religion, politics, and the ikcur-H:*-
and-onc things which make up modern civ
ilization. They wont news—all the news—
but they don’t want it concealed in an over
powering massof the trivial and inconsequen
tial. It is because Tin: Chicago Daii.y
News is “ all wheat and no chafff that
its circulation is over “ a million a week."
Second: —It is an Independent , Truth-telling
Newspaper. The people demand a fair, im
partial, independent newspaper,which gives
all the news, and gives it free from the taint
of partisan bias. With no mere political am
bition to gratify, no “ ax to grind," the im
partial, independent newspaper may truly bo
“guide, philosopher and friend " to henest
men of every shade of political faith; r.r.dlhis
is why The Chicago Daily Nky.t. has to
day a circulation of over “</ million a seech."
The Chicago Daily News now adds to
these two comprehensive elements cf popu
larity, a third, in its unparalleled reduction
I of price to ONE CENT A DAY.
It is always large enough,—never too large.
The Chicago Daily News is fer sale by
all newsdealers at One Ct nt per copy, cr
will l>c mailed, postage paid, fer $3.00 per
year, cr cents per month. The fennel
and mechanic can now afford, ns well as the
I merchant and professional man, to have hii
, metropolitan daily.

FOR INVENTIONS.
Equal with the interest of those having claims against the government is
that of INVENTORS, who often lose the benefit of valuable inventions because
of the iucompetency or inattention of the attorneys employed to obtain their
patents. Too much care cannot be exercised in employing competent and reli
able solicitors to procure patents, for the value of a patent depends greatly, if not
entirely, upon the care and skill of the attorney.
With the view of protecting inventors from worthless or careless attorneys,
and of seeing that inventions are well protected by valid patents, we have re
tained counsel expert iu patent practice, and therefore arc prepared to
Obtain Patents in the United States an:i a!l Foreign Countries, Conduct In
tcrfeiencfc-s, Make Special Examinations, Prosecute Rejected Cases,
Register Trade-Marks and Copyrights, Render Opinions as to
Scope and Validity of Patents, Prosecute and
Defend Infringement Suits, Etc., Etc.
If vox: have an invention on hand send a sketch or photograph thereof, to
gether'with a brief description of the important features, and you will be nt once
advised as to the best course to pursue. Models are seldom necessary. If
others are infringing on your rights, or if you arc charged with infringement by
others, submit the matter to us for a reliable OPINION before acting on the
matter.
