Bleeding the Millers. ] 8 (i : 2 Yo The Cochrane Patent for Milling. What the Largest Miller in the United States Says About it. ' New York Tribune. et Ex-Governor Cadwallader C. Wash'burne, of Wisconsin, in conversation with a representative of the T'ribune, recently, gave a history of a patent for milling wheat, which threatens to impose a tax of millions of dollars on the flour consumers of the country. He said: e o “l am particularly interested just now in fighting the infamous patentright swindle which is going to levy tribute on every loaf of bread madein this country. You haven’t heard about it? Why, it’s making a great sensation in the West. It's a long story, but I can give you the gist of it in a few minutes. I am, by the way, the largest miller in theUnited States, my mills being at Minneapalis, Minn. All millers are now using what is called the high process of grinding, which was introduced into the country about 1871, but had been in use in Europe fifty years. I will explainthe terms of high and low grinding. Low grinding means the bringing of the upper or running mill-stone low down and in close proximity to the nether stone, by reason of which the largest amount of flour is derived from the first grinding; but, as necessarily must be the case, a great deal of the outer coating of the wheat, together with the embryo, would be reduced to such fineness as to go into the flour, and a separation would be impossible. The high grinding is the direct opposite of the low, and ‘the object is at the first grinding to get rid of bran at once and make as little flour as possible. This is done by blowing the bran off the coarse-ground grain or middlings, and | afterward grinding fine the small white granules. I bought my machines in France. This improved process is now- absolutely indispensable to suecessful milling. Deprive any miller of it and he is ruined. e

“A ring of speculators in Washington have lately got hold of an old patent, ‘neéver used, and have got it reissued so as to cover all the machines for effecting ;the process I have described. It is called she Cochrane patent. After quietly taking out the reissue, they went on without making any ‘noise and took a suit up to the Supreme Court, with a man of straw for defendant, and as no real defense was made, they easily obtained a decision based on an opinion given by Justice Miller., Now this gang. of patent right swindlers are attacking the heaviest millers with suits, expecting to terrify all the others. They have singled out the Jewells, of Brooklyn, the Haxalls, of Richmond, and my mills at Minneapolis. They have put me under bonds in the enormous sum of two hundred and fifty thousand dollars pending the conclusion of injunction proceedings. ; “I learn that the rascals propose' to be magnanimous, and to grant license to, such millers as will recognize the validity of their patent for the moderate sum of six thousand for each run of stones, which for this city alone amounts to the vast sum of $1,200,000. While primarily this great sum would come from the millers, really it all comes out of the farmer and censumer at last, and they are the real people most interested in the defeat of -this enormity. As there are over 6,000 ruus of stones in the United States, this license will amount to $36,000,~ 000. We are going to bring this great outrage before Congress next winter and try to have the patent canceled. The grain-growing sections of the West are indignant at the exposure of this enormous fraud, and the grainconsuming East ought to be equally aroused, for the attempted tax on the chief necessary of life affects both alike” . ; ’

What Ails the Railroads. Indianapolis J oyirnal. ’ 2 * It is doubtless true that the railroad companies are poor and many of them unable to pay the wages of their employes, but there is a very general belief that their poverty is largely the result of the cream pf their earnings being skimmed by fast freight lines and sleeping-car companies. - It isan undoubted fact that these organizations are making money and paying large salaries and dividends at the expense of the railroads. A large proportion of the railroad officials of the country are stockholders in some of these fast freight lines, whose interests are entirely diverse from those of the roads. They are rings within rings, regular Credit Mobilier arrangements, by which the profits which ought to go to the roads and their stockholders and employes are diverted and divided among a favored few. It is useless to deny this. 1t is true, and it constitutes one reason of the poverty of the railroads. It is evident there is a general ref;trm demanded in the manner of operating the companies. These fast fxfeight lines will have to be absorbed or they will absorb the railroads. These are questions which will force themselves on the attention of the railroad managers -and will have to be/met. There is a feeling in the pub&c mind that the roads have been managed too much in the interest of the n{:}nagers, and that with honest and fair management they might be able toapg their employes honest and fair wages. .

Lower Rates of Interest Demanded. Indianapolis Sentinel. et iU ' The students of political economy, -(and all are students now), in the employment of their best: faculties to solve the mercantile, financial and labor problems thatare forced npon their attention, have had of late the sukag of interest under special consideration The steady shrinkage in the value Qﬁ real property that has been goingdtj_ )T~ ‘ward for a series of years has had the effect of bringing into special prominence the question of interest, and the ‘conviction is now widely entertained that present rates can not:be paid withs out bringing about the most disastrous results to both borrower and lender.— It has been shown from the most, reliable data that the average increase of ‘wealth under ordinary circumstances does not exceed four per cent. If this position is'admitted as well founded, then it must be patent to the most superficial thinker upon the subject that the current rates of interest charged. in Indiana will in the very nature of things lead to financial disasters inVOI‘ESIg t’}{g owner andt borrower. o: capital. The entire west is interested ""inlt):ﬁ’is"&i%ject,‘ -4ud it'is notsurpr '* therefore, that it is attracting attention, the purpose being to bring about an arrangement with lenders that shall result beneficially to them as well as to borrowers. ey

It is estimated that the amount of ‘money, loaned upon mortgage in the State of Indiana will reach $50,000,000, and we_regard this estimate as prudent. Upon this vast amount of money it is safe to say that the average 'rate of interest called for by the mort_gage bond is fally tén per cent. which 18 six per cent. more than the estimat‘ed average per cent. of increase in the value of property under normal conditions, But it should be considered in ‘the discussion of the subject that a large proportion of the $50,000,000 borrowed by the-people of Indiana was a debt incurred at atime when the property mortgaged as security was vastly more valuable than at present, when ‘it was in demand at prices whieh warranted the creation of debts, and when the business condition of the country gave reasonable assurances of continued prosperity. But this state of affairs has undergone a most disastrous change. 'Values: have undergone a shrinkage of fully fifty per cent., and property is not salable even at this terrible depreciation. Incomes from improved real estate have suffered in proportion to the decline in its value, and now the fact is placed beyond controverSy that the debtors can not pay the interest on loans contracted, and capitalists are confronted with the fact that foreclosures are inevitable. Asa general thing, capitalists do not want the property. If unprofitable to the present owners it is not likely to be more productive when transferred to them; indeed it is likely to be less productive. : Under such circumstances what remedy can be applied that will prove of mutual benefit to lender and borrower? The fact is conceded that nine and ten per cent, interest can not be paid. If lenders insist upon exacting the rate.at which the contract was made, then in that case the work of foreclosure must go forward, and eastern capitalists must take possession of the property. But we are satisfied that there is a better way to solve the problem, one which will prove advantageous to all parties. It will belikely to occur to the lender that if the. borrower can not make the mortgaged property pay the rate of interest upon the loan specified in the mortgage, it will be difficult for him to improve the productiveness of the property ; in fact a close analysis of the question will convince him that a reduction in the rate of interest will be a more profitable proceeding. ‘ e

A Brakeman as General Manager for - Three Days. Pittsburgh Evening Post. o . Near the upper end of Adams street, in a little white cottage which stands back from the street, leaving room for a pretty lawn, trellised grapévines and beds of flowers, lives the retired magnate. He is in his twenty-fifth year; tall, slender, intelligent, quick, and forcible. He is well connected, his father being Mr. August Ammond, of the Miners and Manufacturers’ Duquense Company, Wood street. Excess in habit has given him some trouble, but he is now a proud and staid paterfamilias. With all his mistakes, he avers that he has never tasted a drop of strong drink. * A year ago he came with a letter of introduction to Mr. Laying, admitting he had been wild, but expressing a desire to reform. He was placed on the road as brakeman, soon attained a wonderful influence ‘among his fellows, and never failed in his attendance to duty. When the crisis- came on Saturday, and it was Judicious for the attainment of their object for the trainmen to take complete possession of the road, he was unanimously chosen to the office of general mnanager.- | ‘ During the three days when he held the office not a single mistake or accident occurred, though excitement and danger attended everywhere. The conduct of the road was entirely in his hands, even to the issuing of passes. Mr. Laying himself could not have dead-headed it over the road without a pass countersigned by Robert Ammond. Disaffection began its work, however. The older heads among the strikers lay close together and whispered that “Bob” was too young, too inexperienced for so grave a responsibility. A conference was held, and two of these “old heads,” appointed to counsel and advise with him in his work. The great manager’s proud Bpirit could not brook this slight, and ‘he stepped down and out in the midst of his official glory. i : “I am glad of it,” said he to the re{mrter.' - “Had an accident happened ike that on the West Penn, while the road was in my care, the gitizens would have hanged me to the first lamp-post.” sespd mila ik Tl 2

The State of Ohio and President Hayes.: i Ohio State Journal, (Republican.) : - The Cleveland Convention will not indorse Hayes’ heart at the expense of his head. There was once a great statesman named Sands who turned this matter over in his-alleged mind, and who wanted Hayes indorsed, dispassionately, for his good intentions. Then the great and good Benjamin F. Wade remarked, in his best Sunday school manner, that he'd he —ed to —II and —ation if good intentions were fit for anything but to pave hell with, and he’d beinformally preseunted to Helen Blazes if he saw what his esteemed friend Sands meant by making such an unrestricted, incomprehensible, circumlocutionary —d —d —g —1 —n —ed —al —tion —ing —lly blanketty blank to blank and blanknation puke of himself as to want to indorse Hayes in any shape. The remarks of Mr. Wade are usually accepted by Archbishop Sands as strictly orthodox and evangelical, and Sands has not urged the matter since Wade pleaded so gently. o

Opinion of Chief Engineer Arthur. Letter to New York Herald., = . The great trouble with some of the railway officials is the .love of having their own way, regardless of the discomfort and inconvenience it causes others. Instead of endeavoring to cultivate a friendly feeling between themselves and their employees, they repel them by their haughty, overbearing, and arbitrary conduct, and arouse a feeling of hostility, of which the recent outbreak are the fruits. = In my opinion there ought to be a law enacted that would compel the submission of ail disputes between employes and employers to a board of arbitration, whose decision should be binding and final—the only true and proper method of settling differences and avoiding strikes. : = S ; P.

" Mr. Richard Smith, editor ‘of the Gazetle, whon;useﬂife’eﬁ Aince !‘g’pecia‘l interest on the lszl;ject‘. spglll‘:e i_fori sjtom'a time, warmly favoring the resolution. He was .'lisn%nw"amgﬁvezy and . warmly applauded throughout. He said it was proposed that the Govern/ment should pay specie currency on the Ist of January, 1879, and it was equally as notorious that the Government had nothing with which to resume except its credit. - He continued: “It has no money, ‘and this proposition is a menace, a ‘scare, and y%u,‘ nrerchants and bankers as you are, know how the country is influenced; that it and you are afraid to invest money in anything. Why is ~money cheap? When money is piled up in Third street and Wall street and in all commercial centres in this country, and loaned at from one to two per cent. per annum, it is evidence that -business is stagnant, thal enterprises are paralyzed, and the industries of the country under acloud; and people are afraid to invest in that which gives employment to labor and makes the industries here represented. Ido not believe in inflation, but do believe we shall have no stebility in finance, commerce or our industries until our Government retires every paper dollar and gets out of thebusiness of making gold and silver and leaves the work to the private capitalists of the country under the best liank law in existence in this country. Let politics and Government get out of the financial affairs of this country and leave it to the law of trade, but notof politics. The -Government is not nor will be prepared to resume at the given date. If you remonetize the silver dollar, ‘even then you cannot resume with that vitiated curreney. For we have the highest authority, the Director of the Mint, for saying if all the mints in the United States were put to work on the so-called silver dollar 6f our fathers they could only furnish fifty ‘millions, which, with one hundred and fifty millions in gold, makes two hundred millions to replace the present currency of seven hundred and fifty millions, which ‘means contraction and ruin to all.” : . et E— Turnips an Infallible Remedy for . Hog Cholera: : : Bt. Louis Times, . ' - Major John S. Mellon, a well known real estate agent of this city, has a remedy for hog cholera, and so great is his faith in it that he has filed a claim for the $lO,OOO reward offered by the State for a cure for this disease. Major Mellon says tl%t while acting as commissary in the Confederate army he had chargeat one time of many thousand head of hegs. The hogs were collected together in Mississippi, and the cholerabroke out among them, Maj. Mellon, immediatély upon discovering the prevalence of the disease, began to exert himself to save as many as possible. He separated them as well as possible, keeping the infected | ones apart. Hehad on hand also large quantities of turnips, which he began | to feed the hogs. Very soon he observed a marked improvement, and ‘ then he made numerous experiments. | He sblected some of the diseased hogs and penned them. apart. They were fed on turnips and nothing else, and all of them recovered. He says his experiments - demonstrated the fact: that turnips are not only a cure but a preventative for cholera. He has imparted the secret to many farmers in this State, all of whom found the remedysure. One wealthy farmer in Howard county, Major Mellon says, had 38 hogs afflicted with cholera. He was advised of the turnip cure, but , placed no faith Init. However, he concluded to give it a trial, and selecting: one of the hogs worst affected, he put it in a pen alone aud fed it turnips. The result was that the hog recovered and all the rest died. Maj. Mellon states that unless a hog is too far gone to eat, the turnips will cure him.q The reme-: dy is a cheap one and easi?y procured, and it can do no harm for farmers to give it a fair trial. )

- ; Horrible! . ; A most terrible accident occurred at a Pittsburg foundry one day last week. Twenty men were employed in casting a chilled roll, when, as they were pouring the moulten metal into the mould, there was a sudden report, followed by a shower of liquid iron. The red-hot metal flew in every direction, dropping upon the men, as they fled for their lives. . The ladle, containing most of the metal, was overturned, and great streams of the iron pursued the men. Two of the laborers fell into pits, and the metal poured in upon them, burning them in aterrible manner. Their eyes were'burned out of their sockets, and-the places filled with _huge drops of chilled metal The redhot' iron burned its way to the bones of the victims. Three men are dying or dead, and eight are terribly injured. The cause of the explosion was a “damp ecave,” or, in other words, the sand with which the mould had been ‘packed was not sufficiently dried nor properly grooved, and the steam gen_erated could not escape.

If the infernal contraction policy of Sherman and the infamous fraud of R. B. Hayes is not stopped pretty soon, not only railroads but everything else will be in the custody of receivers —appointed by United Statesg courts—and United States judges will be watering stocks, running fast freight lines, and committing other Tom Scott deviltry. It will be a high old time when judges are presidents and superintendents. When ‘this millenium is ushered in, court rooms :will be railroad depots, and employes can be arrested, sentenced and imprisoned all under one management.
