as will be seen from our columns elsewhere, it is by no means wrlain that even now the gbstruotionists have not rendered Mr. Lloyd Georgs's Act ungatory, for the law appears to be so worded that the foreign patentes can rely upon at least five years in which to work his patent outside the United Kingdom it be so desirei, and probably with a little forethought he could devise a means of indefinitely postponing the analment of his patent.

Obviously, therefore, It was not the paramount intention of the Government to ensure that this vital matter should be enquired into, and we shall be very surprised if the Ormission as a fact does enquire into the relations between the Crowd Agents and their contra ore, If ast we must continue to urge the case for enquiry with successive Colonial Secretaries nutil var object in fically stinized.
