Seven decisions were filed in the SUI

Justice Collins and three by Chief JUS

One of the important decisions was
that in the case of the State of Mime
sofa VS.. Willoughby M. Babcock, in
volving the collection of delinquent
taxes for the year 1900 in Hennepin
county. Babcock claimed the taxes
were invalid because they were in eX-
cess of 15 mills for school purposes, a
limit which it was claimed was fixed
by section 1858, general statutes OF
1894. The court holds that the law i'm
poses no such limitation and that an
Independent school district is not linn
tied to Is mills.

NEW ZEALAND OLD
ACE PENSION ACT

1t is four years since New Zealand
added an old-age pension act to her
experiments i'm radical legislation. VIC
tora followed suit about a year since
and NewSouth Wales about six months
ago. At the present time the schemes
thus instituted are in full working order
i'm all three colonies, and we would call
attention to an up-to-date summary of
the results which appears in the West
minister Gazette.
First, however, a word should be
said about the provisions of the laws
which differ from one another in some
respects. For example, the maximum
New Zealand pension is fixed at 800 a
year, while both Victoria and New
South Wales adopted a rate of 10 shil-
lings week. or $3.50 a year. The latter
colony maintains this rate, but the ac-
tual allotments in Victoria for a full
pension have been reduced to shillings
a week. In general, however, we may
illustrate the details of the system by
reference to the New Zealand law. The
benefiCiaries must be over siXty-five
years old and must satisfy certain re-
quirements as to residence and Charac-
ter. No one who has property of the
value of 81 $50 or an income of $500 is
| entitled to draw a pension and there is
a provision also for a deduction from
the full rate in proportion to such prop
| erty or income as the pensioner may
! have.
Turning now to the operations of the
act, it appears that during the first
! year, of which only five months re-
manned after its passage, 7,4S1 pensions
We're granted. The next year the num-
/ Der was increased by 4.699 the next by
! 2,227 and in the fourth the premier pro-
vides for an additional thousand. not
withstanding the calculation that the
! deaths will number nearly a thousand
in this last year. The expenditure is
! thus 81 ,075 900, and the writer for the
| Gazette believes that the pension roll
will soon reach $4,000 and necessitate
an annual expenditure of $15O0,000. The
| total population of the colony is about
! 100000 or only a little more than one
third that of the city of Chicago.
But New Zealand began the expert
ment when she was flush with money
| and she has suffered no financial trou-
bles from it, The other colonies, which
have undertaken larger obligations un-
| der less favorable circumstances, are
! likely, it would seem, to have a more
! trying experiment. In all three the
pension agent has appeared, and New
! Zealand has her pension sharks, who
make a speciality of stirring up Maori
applicants and charging them fancy
! prices for pushing their claims.-Brad-

RICH CALIFORNIANS.

The tragic death, in France, of Char
les L. Fair, who had lived an idle, dis
sipated life, is another reminder, says
the Portland OTegOnian, that only two
of the noted rich CalfOrnians were
succeeded by useful sons. Charles F.
Croker Vice-president of the Southern
Pacific, who died five years ago, felt
the responsibility of great wealth and
rose to it. James d. Phelan, eX-mayOr
of San Francisco, is now the one young
man of that state who inherited very
large fortune and put it to good use.
He is a good all-rOund man clean in
every way and has the confidence of all
classes. He has no racing stables, OPP
crates no steam yacht, supports no
country house in Newport, devotes no
time to fashionable fads, courts no Cele-
brities and wastes no time in foreign
lands, wherein he differs from other
young CalifornianS who We're born with
golden spoons in their mouths.

SAILING SHIPS AND sIrEz.

No sailing vessels have crossed the
Suez canal since 1874 or 1875, except
during the time of the Turko-Russian
war of 1S17-7S. At that time, sailing
vessels arrived from Calcutta with In
dian troops; but for the last ten years
no seagoing sailing vessels has crossed
the canal. Sometimes trains of coal
and materials, treated by the SueZ
Canal Company as sailing vessels, with
the object of collecting the towing du-
ties, have crossed the canal, but no
sailing vessel engaged in high-sea ma
Yigation has crossed it within the per-
iod named. The absence of sailing YES
sells in the canal is explained by the
difficulties of navigation in the Red
sea. The extraordinary number of sail
ing vessels lost in the Red Sea (Which
is full of dangerous reefs and shoals)
during the years 1S72-73 seems to have
effectually discouraged further at
tempts. The officials of the Suez Cam
al Company believe that the cOnstruc-
ton of the canal, which was opened to
navigation in 1869, has been an impe-
tus to steam navigation throughout the
world.
