A Check is Not Cash Paw
ment.

The Supreme Court of Minnesota ha $
lately rendered a decision of much interest
to the business community ia declaring
that bank checks are not cash, aud do not
possess legal value as money uatil cashed.
In other words, the giving of check on a
bank is not a payment when passed be-
tween debtor and creditor, but only be-
comes so wnen the money is received on
it.
The court holds that in accepting a
check from debtor there is no legal pre-
sumption that the creditor takes it in alb
solute payment, but only conditionally, or
as written acknowledgement of the de5t
Where goods are sold for case on delivery.
and the purchaser tenders payment in a
check or draft on his banker, such pay
ment is only conditional; aud the delivery
of the goods, if made is also conditional
If the check is dishonoreG on presentation,
the seller may retake the goods for the
purchase money, even from the possession
of third or innocent party, unless it can
be shown that the seller has been guilty of
such res'igencs as would estop him from
recovering in equity.
This decision is among The FIRST rendered
by higher courts that is so far-reachiug.
and if supported by other high tribunals,
will settle mooted question in CONNER
cial circles. The same principle has been
applied to unpaid notes by one or Two
courts, which bsve held that the seller
does not lose bis lien, for purchase money,
on goods Sold until he receives the actual
cash, and may retake at any lime prior
mdturiety..

"A Census Problem.

In the United States one hundred years
ago the proportion of persons living in
cities to those living in the country was as
one to twenty five. The recent census
shows that the present proportion is one to
three. This decrease in the rural popula-
tion is general throughout the country, and
has given rise to various theories touching
the cause. 1t is an interesting question
Public attention is directed largely at
present to social and economic problems.
and their consideration is enlisting careful
and earnest thought. 1t is not always
possible to determine the reason from the
result, but concensus of intelligent opinion
on any question aids in reaching a logical
conclusion.
The growing disproportion between the
urban and the rural population Of the
United States may be attributed to a
variety of causes. 1t has been accounted
for by some of the most careful students of
sociology upon the ground that the social
instincts of men draw them together into
communities and that the tendency to de-
seTt the farm and to seek homes in the
town and cities is due to the distaste for
solitude which is common to the human
race. This will not entirely explain the
phenomenon, although it is doubtless true
that it is one of the motives which has
helped to bring about the present condi-
tions. Economic influences have also
played an important part in causing the
change which is so rapidly. equalizing the
census in the country and in the cities.
Laoor-saving machinery makes it as easy
now for one man to produce a thousand
bushels OF wheat as it was formerly to pro-
duce one hundred bushels. The railroad
has become the WAGNER of the farmer, and
the necessity of employing men to haul
the products Of the soil to market has been
practically done awav with

the canning factory and evaporator work
up his fruit, and thus in almost every di-
rectiou the demand for labor has been cur
tailed aud the work of the farm narrowed
down. The vast production of agricultural
machinery has drawn the young men from
the farm to the manufacturing centers.
The multiplication of schools and colleges
has attracted the well-to-do farmers to the
towns and cities to educate their families.
The decreased profits of agriculture have
induced meny people to abandon farming
for more lucrative pursuits. The railroads
have brought the rural population within
easy touch of the world, and the city,
which was once SO remote, is now easily
accessible, with all of its charms and
attractions These are among the reasons
which are assigned for the exodus from the
country to the city. Whatever may be the
true cause of its decline, the spirit of con-
tentment which once prevailed among the
farmers no longer exists. Whether the
old conditions of happiness and prosperity
which once made agriculture an inviting
pursuit will ever return, is problem
which is yet to be solved, and it is ques-
ton which may well awaken serious con-

A Tree That Owns Property.

There is tree at Athens, Ga, which is
property holder. In the early part of
the century the land ON which it stands
was owned by Col. W. II. Jackson, who
took great delight in watching its growth
and enjoying its shade. In his old age the
tree had reached magnificent proportions
and the thought Of its being destroyed by
those who would come after him was so
repugnant that he recorded a deed, Of
which the following is part: II, w. II.
Jackson, of the county of Clarke, of the
one part, and the oak tree (giving loca-
tom, of the county of Clarke, of the other
part: Witnesseth, that the said W. ii.
jackson, for and in consideration of the
great affection which he bears said tree,
and his desire to see it protected, has CEN
veyed and by these presents do convey
unto the said oak tree entire possession of
its and of all land within eight feet of it on
all sides"
