Must Pay Up.

Last Tuesday the supreme court
of this state handed down an OPT ~
ion sustaining the decision Of Judge
Newman, in lower court, to the
effect that ex.Atate treasurers must
cover into the treasury all interest
money on state funds held by them.
1t surprised many, and caused great
Joy among Democrats, although 1t
cannot strictly be called party
success, even though The present
Democratic administration carried
through, in accordance with plank
in their platform of two years ago,
which was only q duplicate Of a
plank IN the Republican platform
adopted a few weeks previous. The
credit for doing the work must,
however, be conceded them.
The decision will impose great
hardship upon the ex-treasurers, TAX
ing from them what they supposed
they rghtfully possessed, wreckiug
them, il is thought, financially,
possibly physically and perhaps
mentally In taking the interes,
they simply followed a custom as
old as the State The decision of
the court therefore casts no reflect.
ion upon the personal integrity of
these men, but is only the settlement
of a disputed question Of law for
this state. The same question has
been decided differently by another
court in another state.
If the decision be carried to It's
fullest meaning and against all cx.
treasurers involved, the state funds
will be Increased IN the ucigbbor-
hood Of tbreequarters Of million
dollars.
Certain it h., an erroneous custom
followed notonly by state treasurers,
but county, city and town, in many
instances, has received "a black eye,
as it should.

that they are discussing the proba-
