FREEHAND, PA., AUGUST 12, 1897.
Wearing the Collar of a Boss.
Richard Harding Davis, tho noted
writer, has about completed a series of
articles on "The Inauguration'" In Har
per's Monthly. His last installment on
this interesting subject contains a few
paragraphs of interest to those voters
who are over willing to wear the collar
of a political boss and to parade their
servility before tho populace on any and
all occasions. Mr. Davis says:
"There was one feature of the great
parade which would have puzzled the
foreigner had he understood its signifi
cance, and which was a commentary on
our political system. It was the number
of clubs and organizations which bore
the name and existed for the personal
and selfish aggrandizement of some one
man, and that man seldom a great man.
or a wise man, or a man of whom man\
people outside of his own city had ever
heard.
"Every one must recognize the im
portance of political organizations; and
when they are called the Junior Politi
cal Club of the Fourth Ward, or the Un
conditional Republican Club of Albany,
or the First Voters' Republican League
of Detroit, their object for existing i;>
obvious and may bo approved by every
one, be lie a Democrat, a Mugwump, or
a Populist.
"Hut when 300 men inarch under a
banner bearing the name and features
of 'Matt' Quay, or 'Tom' Piatt, or
•Dave' Martin, the spectator is remind
ed not of a republic where every citizen
is supposed to vote freely and as bis
conscience dictates, but of tins feudal
days, and of the baron, bis serfs and
retainers. It is easy to understand why
tho political boss exists, from the point
of view of the boss, or why a slave-holder
should be willing to hold slaves. Hut it
is difficult to understand why tho slaves
themselves should rejoice in their de
gradation and wish to publish it abroad.
"Any one might be proud to march in
the ranks of an organization that bore
the name of an American who had ac
complished something Tor his country,
who had lived and died for a great truth,
or who had represented a noble idea.
Put why should men wear the collar of
a boss where every one can see it? And
why should they, for fear every one
should nut see it, hire a brass band to
draw attention to the fact that they
have It on?
"These gentlemen who inarched on
inauguration day were, so the papers
said, prominent business men, lawyers
and bankers. Many of them certainly
looked as if they belonged to that class,
but if they were men of intelligence why
could they not see how undemocratic
and unAmerican they were in giving
t heir .consciences into the hands of one
man?
"One organization of nearly 1,000
men had as its motto, 4 We follow
where Quigg leads.' Now, Mr. Quigg
may be, probably is, a well-meaning
young man; but why should 1,()();>
men travel all the way to Washington
j when representatives from every part
of the Union are gathered together
there and proclaim that they are no
longer free-born American citizens with
a sacred right to vote as they please,
but merely tools and heelers for 'Quigg?'
"These are, the very same Americans
who boast of their independence in the
smoking-rooms of ocean steamers and in
the railway carriages of Continental
railroads, forgetting that there are few
people in Europe that are ruled by such
a boss as this or that one designated on
these banners. If they are so ruled
they are ashamed of the fact and do not
paint his face, on a silk banner as though
he were a saint: and bow down to it, or
carry a gilded pennant bearing liis name
at the point."

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, August 10, 1897.
There are many opinions as to why
•John Sherman should have returned to
Washington and take charge of the state
department at this time. Some say that
the old man intends to make a light to
knock out the Hanna-McKinley plan of
kicking him out the cabinet after the
Ohio election; others that he has a
scheme of his own to get even with the
administration for the treatment he has
received by getting it into some new
foreign complication, but the generally
accepted idea is that he is in Washing
ton solely to enjoy bossing the state de
partment, a privilege that is denied him
when Mr. McKinley and Assistant Sec
retary Day are in town. Mr. Sherman's
virtual acknowledgement of iiis ignor
ance of the nature of tins instructions
given to Minister Sewall concerning
Hawaii is proof of how little lie knows
of the important part of the foreign
policy of the administration. Mr. Day
has had exclusive charge of all matters
relating to Hawaii and Cuba.
Patent oilice officials have testified in
the dhbarrment proceedings against
John Wuddorburn V Co., now going on,
that practically one-half of the nearly
3,800 applications for patents filed by
Wedderburn A- Co., during the past two
years, have been for what was unpat
entable, and that a large percentage of
tho remainder, which contained devices
that were patentable, were of such
trifling nature that it was practically
wasting money for their inventors to
pay for obtaining tho patent. They
also testified that either knowingly, or
through lack of knowledge that should
be a part of the equipment of every
patent .attorney, Wedderburn & Co.
have sought to secure money, and often
secured it, from these would-be inven
tors as fees for applying for foreign
patents and for advertising for sale '
these unpatentable devices.
Of course every man has a right to
have and express an opinion upon sub
jects before the public, and yet opin
ions may be expressed in such away
as to make a man appear to bo gloating i
over the misfortune of something that i
he opposes, which causes them to strike |
most people as being in bad taste, or i
even worse. To the latter class belongs j
the publicly expressed opinion of Mr. '
i'reston. director of the United States !
mint, on tho decline in the price of sil
ver. With the usual gall of tins know
it-all Mr. i'reston tells the public not
only that he knew the decline in price !
was coining but that ho knows the do- j
clino is going to keep on until the price !
gets down to 40 cents an ounce. Tho
belief is irresistible that Mr. Preston's
talk represents his wishes rather than !
his knowledge on this subject.
Tho order just issued by Commissioner
of Patents Hutterworth, providing that
all attorneys practicing before tho
patent oilice shall be registered, and
prescribing the rules which must be
complied with in order to get upon that
register, is one of the most important
ever issued by u commissioner of patents,
and reflects credit upon Mr. liutterworth
both as a lawyer and as an ollicial. Ills
laudable aim is to raise the tone of the
patent bar, which lias suffered in credit
by the toleration on the part of the
patent oilice of loose practices on the
part of a few of its members.
The Spanish minister has only to tip
t he wink to the secretary of the treasury
to put all of the machinery of the United
States customs service to work at lilli
buster hunting. His latest was an alle
gation that arms were about to be
shipped from Kridgeport, Conn., or
thereabouts, to the Cubans. Special
orders were at once sent to all the offi
cers of the customs service in that
vicinity to turn themselves into detec
tives to please the Spanish minister.
John W. Foster, the gentleman who is
credited with having written the in
structions to Ambassador Hay that were
signed by Mr. Sherman, has returned
from iiis sealing mission to Europe. lie
says it was successful; Prof. Elliott, of
the Smithsonian Institution, says it was
a Hat failure. Which of them is right
will not lie known until after the inter
national conference, which meets in
Washington next October, shall have
been held.
Not a little joking has followed the
the naming of the now submarine'
torpedo boat, which a small party of
officials went over to lhiltlmoro to see
launched from the Columbian Iron
Works. "Teddy" Roosevolt, who is al
ways trying to do something out of the
common, christened the boat "Plunger."
