THE STATE CANAL.
The Supreme Court Decides Some Oues-
lions.

lions.
The Supreme Court Monday decided the
question raised by Lieutenant Governor
Nichols on the oonstitutionallty of the act
creating board of control for the construc-
ton of State Canal No. !. The court was
asked especially for ruling the certin-
Gates of Indebtedness to be issued in poyment
for work on the canal and the right OF the
state to sell every alternate quarter section Of
state and school land adjacent to the canal
and receive these certificates in payment
therefor, and whether the certificates can be
received by the state in place of money in
payment for water furnished from the canal.
Justice Hyatt, IN the opinion, decides that
some of the clauses of the act are in conflict
with the constitution, but that the entire act
does not necessarily fail. He decides that
while certificates may be accepted in lieu of
money for the carriage OF water, they cannot
be accepted in payment of public land since
''the payment for lands purchased from the
state by certificates issued for the construc-
ton OF this ditch, as provided by the act.
would necessarily result In dIverting thes
lands and the proceeds thereof from the use
and benefit Of the respective objects for which
the grants were made" The opinion con-
eludes as follows:
'Thc act Is TO expedite the completion Of
canal, the construction Of which had thereto
fore received the sanction of three successive
legislatures, including the one passing the
measure under review. Alcgislatiye intent TO
complete the work inauguratcd could not
we'll be more manifest This intent In no
measure rests upon the Objectionable pro-
visions. The act provides for the issuance of
certificates in lieu of cash, and although the
certificates can not be accepted in payment
for the public lands sold by the state, they
may be accepted in lieu of money for charges
for the carriage OF water In said canal, or for
perpetual water rights Hereunder, AS provided
by section IA of this act. Tripp ct al. VS.

ECONOMY in the matter of safe
guards invariably proves expensive
to railroad companies in the end. 1t
Is asserted that a wreck which oc-
Cured recently on road leading out
of Chicago was directly due to the
closing of night telegraph office in
order to cut down expenses; and this
in the face of the fact that the road
was carrying 100, 200 passengers a
month more than its ordinary traffic
because of travel to the worlds fair.
by discharging telegraph operator
and closing the office the company
saved" perhaps $i5 or $50 a month
The wreck due to this economy will
probably cost the company anywhere
from s25, 900 to $1,000 in actual
loss and damage suits, to say nothing
OF the bad reputation which the
wreck gives the road. which will lose
1t many thousands more. There is
no necessity for pointing a moral in
this case The facts speak for them
selves.

The Miowera Water Ballasted-Th,
S. N. Castle on the Marine
Railway.

Among the members Of the water
front four hundred who mourn passing
of golden opportunities unimproved, is
the carpenter of sailing vessel, who
trusted not wisely but too much in the
truth of a time honored proverb and
the honesty Of a side partner His
trustful nature, he says, will never lead
him into such an error again. Whether
his conscience has forced him to re-
form, or whether he intends to be a
lone worker in the traffic of opium in
the future he does not say, but just
now he has the blues and does not de-
sire any public attention.
Yesterday there were 40 tons of
water ballast pumped into the Miowera
to prevent her being moved any
more by the tide. 1t is rumored
on the waterfront to day that prepare
tons are being made to give McRae's
samson pole scheme a trial, and that
the tug is apt to be called into service
to transport the necessary tackle at any
moment.
The steamer James Makee came in
this morning with one cabin passenger
and seven on deck. The Makee's
cargo consisted of 22oo bags Of paddy,

slightest sign Of diminutlon in quantity
The quality Of the water, if anything, is
improving, as there is less foreign mat.
ter in it than at first Yesterday ar
actual test was made Of the capacity O
the new pumping plant by Messrs
Andrew Brown, Alexander Young anc
others interested. The water from the
spring above was shut off, the discharge
pipe from the reservoir closed and
the depth of water in it carefully
measured The pumps were ther
started on an hours run, at the end Of
which the water in the reservoir wa.
again measured. Taking the run O
one hour for basis, the actual capac
ity of the new plant is I,I67,I2o gal
Ions in twenty four hours with the
engine making eighteen revolutions to
the minute. This is only ordinary
speed and can be increased if neces
sary. The result has been SO fal
beyond expectation that Superintendent
Brown has this morning disconnected
the two artesian wells at the paac,
building and Government yard from
the mains, land disconnected he use
of the fire engine. The large well al
