Telephone Monopoly. ‘
, The Bell telephone is again secure in
its monopoly and will continue to be so
unless the supreme court should reverse
the decision of the United States circuit
court of appeals, provided thecnse be ta-
kc‘n before that body. The Electrical
World, in an editorial comment on the
recent decision. which has such an im-
artant bearing on the telephone indus-
cs‘oi the United States, says:
That the action of the circuit court of up
peels involves n miscarriage of justice will. we
believe. be the verdict of the general public,
and there is much nppuront reason to sustain
this view. The two points made by Judge Cur-
pentcr agniust the Berliner patent were that
.the delay 0 . is years in its issue was a (mud
on the yubl c. and that the 1880 Berliner pat-
ent, now expired, covered the some invention
described in the subsequent patent granted in
imi-either of which considerations, he do-
cidcd, voided the patent. In support of the
former view Judge Carpenter cited at length
the history of the numerous delays in the pat
cut oihcc, and while the court or up is may
not have found technical evidence 013m in
thwe delays, yet We tear that the public will
be inclined to consider the case as another ex-
ample or how justice may be perverted. not
only in face of the low. but through its very
assistance. As the opinion of the appeal Judges
has not yet been handed down. it is diflcult to
surmise on what grands they based their action
with respect to the above point, Ind their rem
sons will he looked forward to with much in-
terest. As to the probable view or the court
with respect to the second point, on opinion
maybe hnzsrded. Assuming that thcmnrt ad-
mitted that the Berliner potent of 1&0 anticl'
patcd the invention for which n patent was
granted 11 years later. they yet might not so-
mit that the governmenthsd therefore it right
to nunul the second potent. If it were consid-
ered that Berliner had prosecuted diligently
and within legal bounds his application (or the
later patent. it might be held that the govern-
ment had no right to nunul that patent when
once granted. upon the grounds that it had
made smiatuke in consontingto its issue. This
view or course is based upon the supposition
that no fraud were proved by the government,
us in any case {mud would be a sufficient reu-
son for annulment. A very important conse-
quence of this point is that while it would
prevent the government from pleading prior
invention it Would not prevent an alleged in-
irlnger trout doing so.
This, however, is probably quite a
faint hope, otherwise this monopoly
will extend to the your 1908, provided
the expiration of no foreign patent in-
tervenes to shorten the term. Potent
rights are no doubt very wise in them-
selves, but they have been too often
grasped, as in this case, and used as if
they come directly under the head of ‘
private property. The invention ,0! the
telephone may well bring thoy‘tnvcnmr
large returns. yet, as these returns are
wholly dependent on a direct provision
of law, there is no reason why they
should be allowed to become exorbitant,
as they have in this once. “The powers
that be" room to forget that law, which
stands for the community, having made
its-first wise concession, should not ult-
erwnrd remain blind and dumb no
matter how the public well being may
suffer. The government, once u party to
the transaction, remains a party to it,
and having provided for the compensa-
tion of the inventor in upatentit should
' also see that the revt‘nrd is not excessive
and at the expense of the public.
History of the Income Tax.
“It was first proposed to levy a tax on
incomes derived from investments and
to exempt those incomes that were do»
rived from industry. But by a majority
of one this mopesition was lost in the
house committee, and it was voted to
levy the tax on all incomes. Then the
supreme court held by n vote of 0 to 2
that the tax on investments was uncon'
stitutionnl. The court was. however.
evenly divided on the question at the
mmstitntionniity of the tax on industry.
80 {or a time the tax remained on in-
dustry, but it was removed from wealth.
But later the crmrt held that the en-
tire tax was unconstitutional. Thus
those who have not pnid their income
to: need not, those who paid under pro-
test have a claim for their money, and
those who paid without protest must
wait for congress to take ontim for the
refunding oi the tar.
Concerning the justice or injustice of
the income tax. this is neither the time
nor place tospeak. But one word as to
taxes in genomL-nsmcly. ii there is
to be any discrimination in the imposi-
tionor taxes, ltshonldho inthedirsc-
tion of correcting inequalities, not in
inersssing them.

a terrible creature indeed, for Goth is
not wont to regard nuypiellow creature

However, the correspondent succeeded

less noted correspondents have beiorc

All this happened last year. and cir-

story now, but he does it in such fashion
astoleadthe reader to believe theta
bitter spirit of lasting resentment was
begotten in the journalist's mind as
wellasawe of the lion. Referring to
Morgan’s proboscis, Goth avers that it
was adorned by a carbuncle and adds
that the voice which issued from the
month beneath the carbuncnlarfeaturo
was “strident." But, Goth says, “He
was “all mun,’ as John Owens used to
any of Wilkes Booth. "
Some of the rest of us, less aggress-
ive than Goth and not to be spoken of
in the same breath as Morgan, would
have greatly enjoyed seeing the two
men when they met and hearing Gnth’s
stammcrings and Morgan’s strident
roars.
