Municipal Reform.

The Municipal League of Philadel-
phia, co-operating with the City Club
of New York, has issued a call for a
national conference, which, is t 0 dis-
cuss the manner by which good city
government may be achieved. In a
prospectus-which fixes the convention
date for the 25th and 26th instant—the
principal object of the conference are
declared to be.“to determine, so far as
possible by inquiry and debate, the
best means for stimulating and increas-
ing the rapidly growing demand for
honest and intelligent government in
American cities, and to discuss the best
methods for combining and organizing
the friends of reform, so that their
united strength may be made effective.”
It is understood that a large number of
those who may fairly be denominated
“the best citizens” of many muncipali-
ties will be present and will participate
in the discussions on the program. Out
of the interchange of views great good
should come, and especially great good
for the city in which the meeting is to
be held. More than any other city,
New York only excepted, Philadelphia
has sufi‘ered from rings of all sorts and
from the intervention of partisan poli-
tics in public business. If the conven-
tidn shall hasten the day of Philadel-
phia’s emancipation it will more than
repay all it costs.

The Venetious Telephone.

On the '30th instant the patent on the
metallic diaphragm telephone ceases to
exist, and out of its death should come
a new telephonic life of a more desira-
ble and less expenswe sort than any
with which this country has yet been
made acquainted. European countries
are far ahead of 11s in the quality of
their telephone service, while in the
important matter of cost there are dif-
ferences of the most material sort. In

Switzerland, for example, the tele—r

phone is almost universally used, a
condition consequent upon the rates——
about $20 for the first year, $20 for the
second year and $16 for the following
years. Those terms are not for shorter
distances than the monopoly in the
United States demands from $25 to
$120 for; they include payment for ser-
vice from town to town—connection
which in the United States is possible
only at a price which has no relation-
ship with the cost of operation and
transmission. How much of competi-
tion may come when the patent referred
to'expires is not yet apparent. Many
honest efforts will be defeated by pur-
chase and consolidation, others will be
squeezed into submission, yet the pub-
lic will be benefited to a greater or less
degree. The Electrical World says
_ that “had the ordinary course been
followed in the patent office in relation
to the Berliner patent, the principle of
telephony by means of a. variable con-
tact resistance would also soon be pub-
lic‘ property, and until this patent ex-

pires or is annulled, the Bell monopoly

cannot be very seriously affected. If
by a. natural course this patent was re-
tained in the patent office for fourteen
years, thus practically prolonging the
life of an absolute monopoly to that
extent, a monstrous state of afi'airs‘is
admitted which'fif it cannot be other-
wise ,re‘mediedfwould almost justify
the entire abolition-of _,the patent sys-
tem.” Telephones are no longer luxt
price; they are necessary to the trans-
action of the world’s daily business.

high they would be used in thousands
of homes whence they are excluded for
economic reasons. There is real de-
mand for an inexpensive and satisfac-
tory telephone, and there will be. enor-
mous business for the individual or cor-
poration that supplies it—whether it be.
the Bell or any other company.

itself a mystery which the unaided
humanintellect and the unguided hu-
man eye is unable to penetrate. It was
in feats of this kind that Kellar opened
his performances during ”his long sum-

New York, from which he comes direct

follow an exhibition-of the art of modern
magic such as would have daunted the
most tremendous spirits of .- the. most
ancient times. For from the adopts of

the Zuni Indians, the one Caucasian
who is conceded to combine the skill

times in magic is Kellar alone. .
