brands and trade marks, In the aosence ot Philip Haxall, of Richmond, Va., chairman, who was not present. The report is as follows: The committee on brandR and trade marks would respectfully leport as follows: The value of property in trade marks, not only to Millions but to other Industries la only lully realized by those who have Riven the uetlon very careful attenion. It is a secies of property that to many does not have the positive value woioh attaches to your mill, and yet sometimes there is more real money valu in the reputation of the tloar than in the machinery with which it is manufactured. Hoiiic trade marks have great commercial Value. One name on the article of march is est lmated by i he owners to le worth a quarter of a mi Hon of dollars, and this In not an over valuation. This is but one among the many. The vulu-of irade marks in this country would aggregate many millions of dollars. Vey many of the manufacturing industries of tins country are dependent on their trade marks ax the very virality of their existence. This property Is of a peculiar nature it can be st len and its owner not know of it until it remitation has ione and it Is valueless. It is Ix-cansi of the peculiar na ure of this prop rtv Hint very strlntt.eut laws should be enacted ami enforced to protect its rightful ownership. Many parties have appropriated the trade marks or otuers tx freely In to past. The trade mark question is one of the most Important with which millers have to deal today, and it Is for ns now to inaugurate some measure that will -Htahligh our rights iu this regard to use the means that are at hand in audi a niiinner that the thieves and pirates of the emu try will in the future respect Jhrouiih fear of the law. the rights that they have heretofore disregarded. The man who would a ppro pr late yonr neighbor's brand without bis consent and niralnst bis protest, will not hesitate to ol I in that be received poor Hour from you, when, in fact, it was up to the ttandard. ouch parties are not square dealers, and If yon have business with them It won d le better if you we're located next door rut her than a thousand mtles away. They are pirates on thetra e, and their black flae'shouid be known si as to le avoided. The present trade mark law of congress seems to afford the protection desired. We would therefore recommend all millers to register their trade marks in the iatent OJTiee." The Minn of labels In the patent offlceand registering o copyright with the librarian of cousress axe of doubtful value and not recommcnaed. The question presented is, what action shall we take to protect oar property In trade mark?

At the last annual meeting, one year ago, the committee on tr tie marks recommended mat that comml' tee should have the power to decide i he ownerslrp of brands as between meralers of the organization. This recommendation was adopted, but it bus not come to oar knowledge that the committee has ever been call-d upon to art. We can hardly see the value o such reference. Thee are so many thouiands or brands in the 30,000 mills of the country iand very likely lO.UW duplicates) that if the matter was attempted by any committee they would have an endless task before them. 'o man could think of submitting the question of his ownership to a valuable brand to a committee. You would not refer the question of the title to your mill to sny committee, and yet your ownership or your brand is us poslti ve as your title to your real estate. The rightful nwner can establish hLs til le through t lie courts, and it is not for use to belittle the value of trade marks by mere reft rence to a committee. It Is rather for us to command resjiect for them, because they are our property, and secured to ns by U the niaiesty of law. and that we will not per mit others to counterfeit them without their being mailo to suffer the penalties of the law, any Moner than we would permit parties to counterfeit our signatures to a note or any other paper. It is a more serious offense to counterfeit your trad- mark than it is to counterfeit your note. The note you need not pay, and would sutTer no harm jtut the counterfeit trade mark: may destroy you in reputation and purse before you know ol it. Perhaps the fear of the law Is quite as effective In restiaimng the nverage citizen from the ouimisslon .f tte crime of larceny as respect for the rights of others Men know of of the rights of 01 hers to trade marks, but they have no fear of the la w, and so do not respect their rischia. It is fair to presume that if they knew of no law agaiiiKt thieving they would appropriate your horse or your purse as coolly as they now take your trade mark, rhelr Jear of the law makes your horse and purse, perhaps, safe with them. They should Im taught li they win not respect me moral rignis or others to trade marks they must respect the legal rights to them. When fne or more parties are found in prison and compelled to re fund some of their ill gotten gains, and make good in part the damage they have caused when people learn that to steal a brand is crime, then we shall have little cause for complaint. In closing this report we would recommend the folio win: That the 'secretary issue a circular to the members of this oiganlzatlon, under the direction of the committee on brands and trade marks, when anv person or tirm has knowingly and persistently appropriated the trade mark of any member of this organization, such circular shall give the name and residence of the party ottendlng, and shall warn all millers against dealing with such person or firm. That the trade mark committee for the ensuing year be instructed to examine the present trade mark law of the United Statts. and if it shall be found wanting in giving full protect on to mille s, that they recommend such amendments to the law as may be requirtd to the secretary ot this association, who shall ask their passage by congress JsaacG. Jenkins, Chairman. The following minority report was presented by Mr. Jeseph (J. Bur bridge: Asa member ot i he committee on brands and trade inrks, I would most respectfully report that every recoinmenda'ion of our chairman meets my most cordial approbation, but whilst I full v concur in his report, J conce ve it to be my duty to call the attention of the members f this convention to the pernicious practice that has been almost universally adopted by the millers In ail carts of the country, of using fictitious brands for their flour. This practice has been carried on to such an extent that it is estimated that fully one-half ot all the Hour manufactured by our millers now reaches tne consumer anler a tU-tt.lous brand. Millers who have been for many years working faithfully to build up the reputation of their own markets are compelled every day to see, without any remedy whatever, the town or city in which their mills are located, pi ced upon brands of flour that are :1 a very inferior quality, and often manufactured out Of an entirely different kind of wheat. If every miller was compelled by law to place on the bad of every barrel of flour shipped from his mlL, the name of his Arm. and the place where manufactured, it wo Id bring ab ut a radical change in the present system ot selling tlour for the eastern and southern markets, and would be of lncalcuable benefit, not only to the millers, but to every man, woman and child in the country. Kuch a law as this would bring about a new era in milling, and would necessarily compel every miller to make great eft oils to manufacture a tlour to com men . itself to every consumer The people of this country are deeply Interested in the passage of such a law, because and- r the present pernicious practice of branding flour with liciiiious brands they can have no guarantee that the flour offered for sale is suitable for human food. Let congress pass that lw, and no miller will dare to buy unsound wheat for the purpose of manufacturing into flour. I tie Ire alio to call the at tent ion of the members of this convention to the present practice among jobbers of flour and dealers generally of delac ng anu scratching inillerv brands. Every miller knows that three-fourths of all the flour shipped east under the mill brands never reaches the consumer without the brand bein scratched off and a fictitious brand snlct It nted. I consider it only news, aary to call the attention or this con vention to tiiis subject, and will close the report with the fo lowing recommendation: I would respectfully recommend that a petition ba forwarded to conjure, asking for the passage of a law that will co i pel every mille to brand ah flour shipped from his mill with the name of the manufacturer and the plac -where made: al-, tbut said law be so framed as to punlsn with severe penalties any person or persons who shall deface or scratch fiom the head of a barrel of flour the man u acturer' i.rnd. Jon Q Ucrhridge, Mem. of Com. on Brands and Trade Marks. Before this reportrwas adopted some discussion wai indulged la bj Mr. Chamberlain, of New York, Mr. Hayes, of Detroit, and others. Finally it was moved and carTied to consolidate the two' reports. This was done and the report adopted. , STATE ASSOCIATION Mr. S. II. Searnans, of Milwaukee, made a report from the committee on state organizations. The committee reported organizations existing in Minnesota, Missouri, Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Mich Jgao, Ohio. New York, Maryland, Kansas AnI fcT Kea aL-si A rVDlnitniP9 nnranNarlAM PkUt a ass v a j w assu im lAVij on the 9th of January was formed in the state of Pennsylvania, but as yet take no active part la any particuhr state organization. In response to the assessments made by the executive committ-e, we find that very few Of the state organixations to this call. W would toggttt the necessity ot meet

ing these assessments. It seems very proper to state : here that that ibe payments have been in the defense of their puri hers suite, have been in excess of the receipts. It is important and necessary to roake up the deficiency that the national association may carry on its work successfully. We further suggest the adoption of some plan to place the association on a legal basij, by which they can be compelled to pay their assessments and dues as agreed to. An abstract was bere read from the New York organization on this subject, and the above report was then adopted. President Bain also added some trite remarks in regard to tliis subject. He said that the state organizations were in a condition to render valuable aid in these matters, and hoped they would do so". INSURANCE. Your committee do not consider that an extended report upon this subject is called for at this present time. Thequtstion of the insurance of our mill property received early attention at the bands of our national and state associations, and our beliel that one-half the money we were aying for the necessary indemnity could be saved by managing the business ourselves took practical form, and our experience thus far li9s proved the soundness of our itoxition. There are three purely mutual companies in this country at the present time which insure nothing but flouring mills. We name in the order in which they were organized: The Mill Owners' of Iowa, the Miller' National of Chicago, and the Illinois Millers' mutual. Each one of these, companies was organized with the intention of doing businesi only within their respective states, but at the meeting of their association oue year ago it was voted to change the name of what was then the Fidelity insurance cempany to the Millers' National, and make iti business coextensive with, the union. This has been effected and the control placed in the hands of directors chosen from the policy holders. Tt is but two years since this company began business. Its condition at the close ot its second year is shown by the following statement furnished your committee by the secretary of the company: Assets, May 1, 1878: Cash on hand In bank subject to draft S26.S74 65 Ollice furniture and fixture............... w ao Deposit notes bubject to assessment... 813,778 08 Total aswts . 370,5ei 63 Liabilities: Un paid louses -. .None It will be seen that in the brief period which has elapsed since the organization of this company it has accumulated a capital already larger than that of very many companies whose policies we have been accustomed to accept with perfect confidence of certain indemnity. This capital is composed of the deposit notes of the best millers of the country, which are as reliable for the purpose for which they were intended as are the ordinary securities to be found in the published statements of other companies. It will be observed that upon the mutual plan the capital increases in the same proportion as the risks increase. For every policy issued a deposit note corresponding to the risk assumed is added to the funu held fcr the indemnity of thoc-e unfortunate enough to require it, while stock companies have a fixed capital. To the millers of Iowa must be accorded the credit of being the first to show by their works their faith in this ptinciplf. In April, 1875, the Mill Owners' mutual of that state ws organized We are informed that during the three yearsof its experience the company has8UStjinod five losses, which have promptly been paid, amounting to -$21,574.77. TLe incidental expenses have been about $8,701; total cost to policy holders, $29,274 77. It hss carried uion an average about $500,000 in risks. The average yearly premiums, which by board rates is 5 per cent, would amount to $25,000, or nearly as much in one year as it has cost the policy holders in this company for three. It has been decided by the members of this company to confine its fieUl of action to the state of Iowa, and remain a local institution. There are 170 mills Insured in this company to the amount of over $700,000 at the present time. The Illinois Millers' Mt.taal has been in oie ration about eight months, and has been fortunate enough to escajK? losses thus far. Its assets are $62,000 in cash and notes, with risks amounting to nearly $300,000. This company does no business outside the state. 'there is, and need be. no conflict in the s companies already organized, and if more of the local kind are established in other states we believe tbey will all help each other iu the way of becoming acquainted with their different risks, and that the state organiza tioDs will be feeders to the natioual, by turning over to it all surplus insurance, and the national will reap the advantages of the local supervision of the stite companies. We do not believe it good policy for any one company to carry excessively heavy risks. Ordinary amounts well distributed is the settled policy established by the combined experience of all successful insurance companies. The recent terrible calamity at Minneapolis, where in the twinkling of an eye the largest mill upon this continent was blown to atoms, carrying death to every one within its wall?, followed by tbc destruction of five adjacent mills by fire, is uppermost in the mind of every miller in the land to day. Looking at it from the Insurance standpoint, it presents a perplexing problem. In the oriuion of your committee, it is the duty of this association to cause a thor ougb investigation to be made of the cause which led to the Minneapolis disaster, that the members of this body and the milling public may receive from an official source the actual facts in the case, and ot the required safeguards to be adopted to protect our lives and property from like calamities Your committee believe that the most feasible way to accomplish this result is to suggest that the three millers' mutual insurance companies investigate this mafer at joint expense, proportioned according to the business done by each, and that tbey report to the next meeting of their atkociation, or sooner if practicable to the president, the r suit of their investigation. After Mr. Hayes and Mr. Igiehart had made tome rmaks on this subject the report was moved, seconded and adopted. PAT EXT RIGHTS. Mr. J. A. Christian presented the report for the comnilttro. This report led toconsiderabl9 discussion. Mr. Spark, of Illinois, f poke very strongly on this subject in favor of inrmoriuHziog congress in reference to tbc ruviain of the pateut law. He said Hut the pretcnt law protected patent sharks aud patent thieve, and 'he thought that it "was about time for tbc law to be revised or done away with altogether. Mr. Igiehart, of Kvansville, spoke in favor of the law,. and sid that a good patent should meet with recognition and approvel of ail mills, and should be protected by the patent law. EXF.CCTIVE COMMITTEE. Mr. J. A. Christian, chairman of the com mi I tee. pre wn'ed the report. The ex-culive committee have to report in favorable progress in preparing the evidence in the Cochrane suit, which is of such a crushing character as to leave no doubt of the result as soon as the issue can be reached in court. Hon. George Harding has given unremitting attention to the case, ably resisted by such attorneys as he baa seltcted, each with a view to special woik. and we are unreservedly of the opinion that the work has been well and faithfully done. All this involves liberal expenditures and romptpaym.nt of assessments lvretof.ie cvied, and to cover the furtoer expanses of carrying it to a successful conclusion it will require an additional fund equal to $10 per run, which the committee rt commend the association to provide tot at this meeting, to

be collected by the several state associations and remitted to the national association treasury as early and as fast as possible within the next CO days. To miller who may feel tbat the former asesmeiitof $15 per run, with the $10 assessment now reccomended, is large, your committee would reply that the firm, defensive stand maintained by your association, and notably the defeat of the Injunction proceedings at St. Louis, have undoubtedly saved hundreds of thousands of dollars which would otherwise have been extorted from them to compromise threatened suits. The bentfit to result 'from a complete defeat of these unfounded claims should appeal to all millers so strongly as to relieve their committee of further argument Tending the assessment and collection of the present ten dollar call the states delinquent oa previous call are in duty bound to make vigorous and instantaneous exeriion to collect and remit. Your committee trust that the officers of state associations, and millers generally, will appreciate the fact that suits of such magnitude can not be properly defended without ampler funds, which should be provided liberally and in advance of actual want. The evidence, drawings, models, arguments and documents, when comoleted, will be printed in book form for circulation among the membera of the association, and will be the most exhaustive treatise on milling ever prepared, and will te worth all the millers have contributed independent of the benefit of a comptfet legal settlement, which will prevent similar combinations against millers in future. A complete statement has been prepared, and will be printed and mailed to the ollice ra of the state associations. Considerable discussion was caused by this report. A report of a special committee followed the report, recommending the association the giving of increased power to the committee, as such an action would inspire them with confidence. Ex Governor K. . Stannard said that he was not a member of the executive committee, but had been requested by them to address the association in regard to the suggestions that had been made to the association by their report. The report was finally adopted. He then read a paper containing resolutions in regard to the improved condition of the country. He said that while the resolutions were not bis own, yet they embodied ideas which he heartly approved, and as he considered merited the indorsement of this association as a body of business men wbo weie thankful for the improved condition of our beloved land. He thought that government should be ask eu to please let upon taxation and a few of the burdens we are - at present laboring under. David Gibson, of Indiana, was decidedly opposed to giving any expression of this association on these resolutions, as they were intinly of a political cnaractr. A very animated discussion was continued on thii subject until after 1 o'clock, when the convention adjourned to reassemble at 3 o'clock. AFTERNOON SESSION. President Bain called the convention jromply to order at 3 o'clock, remarking be would be pleased to have his brother millers proceed with their "feeble remarks" upon this important question. The rrquest was promptly responded to by different members, and when the question was Anally put to vote the resolutions were immediately tabled. The gist of the various socakers' remarks on this question were to the effect that conscientiously as millers assembled for the purpose of discussions referring to matters which would improve their manners of milling, and nothing c'.se, they could not afford to devote their time to questions of a nature foreign to milling. In connection with this discussion one of the members of the association said that if they got into these poli'ical questions they would be nominating candidates for president and vice president of the United States in a short time. President Bain remarked that he would be satisfied if they elected a miller for president. This remark of the president, no doubt called to the minds of many the fact tbat Ceo gi Washington w.is at one time a miller, and owned the finest Hour mill in the country during his time. The committee on cominat'ons reported tbat tbey bad thoughtfully considered the matter entrusted to them, and they were constrained to remark: That they had sought a new president; And their Iatitrua2 was quite plain That there was doubtless good stuff there But none quite like Bain. The entire list of officers was elected as heretofore existing sivcone or two changss in the vice presidents. . The convention adjourned immediately after receiving notice from the '-'Bee Line" railway company that they tendered members of the association passes over their road Thanks were returned by theasweiation, and adjourned sine die. to-day's business. At 10 o'clock hia morning the members and delegates will meet at the union depot, where a special excursion train will bein read-ines-sto convey them upon a circuit around the Belt railroad to visit some of the leading manufacturing industries of the city and the Union stock yards, at which latter place dinmr will be served.

Medical Tribulations. ' At a meeting of the Indianapolis eclectic medical society, held at the residence of Dr. Kendrick last night. Dr. Picfcerilt offered the following resolutions, which were ununimously approved: Whereas, There ! being made a determined effort by the old school or medicine to establish a '-state board of health" at the next siuln of the Indlaualegib'.ature, narrow in its conceptions, blgotediu its creation, illitteral and partial in Its application, and u trlmental to the interest oi other school of medicine In the state; and, Whereas, Hnch "ttate board of health" would Impose an extra tax upon the whole people of UX9 state for IU support for class emoluments,

the people at latere receiving no benefit therefrom whatever; therefore Resolved, That we T"otet against clans legislation in any sense; especially do we protest when Fuch legislation seeks to take from the people rtehts tacred a life itseli and one of these rights the right to choose whom they will have to serve them when sick, and we verily lieltcve the creation of such "slate lard of health" Is intended to rtrlct this right bv ostracizing II liberal, reformed and independent scbiKls of medicine, thereby trampling in the dust of llllberallty and bigotry the very genius of our government which gives to eve, y one the right to "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." Resolved, That we believe the tax for the support of a "state board of health" would be unjust to the people, plundering them of hard earned money and receiving no benefit therefor whatever, being of no beuefit to anyone save perchance, to the favorite class, thus robbing the whole people of money and rights for sell interest : tberelore do we solemnly Resolve, That we will do all in our power to protect our own riglrs, and thereby tne rights of the people ol the whole state.

It Is manifestly absurd to claim for a mere stimulant tonic and alterative properties. Yet this is what is daily done by the vendors of cheap locsl bitters, colored to make them look attractive, and agreeably flavored, but tne alcoholic basis ot which is of the vilest and most hurtful description. The transcendent success of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, the leading alterative tonic of the United States, has 1 ml need many of these compoun ers of drams in disguise to attempt the counterfeiting of this standard medicine, but their efforts bave never proved successful on a large scale, and they have themselves In many instances notoriously "come to grief" through the Instrumentality of the law. The genuine El iters have, Indeed, a spirituous basis, but they are emphatically a medicine, since their botanic ingredients are signally efficacious in overcoming and preventing chills and fever, dyspepsia, livr complaint, constipation aud many other disorders.

The evidence of this fact Is found in the frre.it variety of moat ooaUoaie diseases which it lias been found to conquer. Ia the cure ot Kronlliitltt Severe Conrhs, and the earlv binges of Consumption, it has antonULed the medical faculty, aud eminent physicians pronounce It the greatest medical discovery of the a?c While it cures the severest Coughs, it Hrenjrthens the system and parities the blood. By iu great and thorough blood-purilv-ing properties, it cures all II unions from the worst Scrofula to a common Uiotcb, PlmPle.or Kraptlon. Mercurial oisense. Mineral oisons, and their eflects, are eradicated, and vigorous health and a sound constitution established.
