DUNPHY WILL A VALID TRUST
Court Decides Heirs Cannot Break
COdieil to Receive Lump Sum.

Mary d. Flood, daughter of the late
William Dunphy. lost her last chance
to break the will of her father. by a
decision of the Supreme Court of Cali
fornia last Monday. The ruling up
holds the decision of the Superior Court
aud creates a new departure in the legal
history of codi :ils, in that it establishes
the first trust" in California.
When William Dunphy died he left
property in Monterey and Nevada to
the value of over 81, 800. 900. This prop
erty he willed should be converted into
cash for the purpose of investment.
After the payment of expenses and
taxes. the will decreed that the net
sum remaining should be declared a
trust and apportioned equally among
his five heirs.
Throughout the will there were pro-
visions attached to each bequest so thai
in case any of the five heirs should die
his one-fifth share should go to his heirs
or revert to the trust. E ,ch heir would
be paid an annual income from a one
fifth share every quarter. To such a
provision Mary d. Flood objected. She
endeavored to break the will by having
the trust declared invalid. The object
Of this was to obtain possession of her
her fifth share at once so that she could
become possessor of the money without
waiting for quarterly payments and for
the privilege of bestowing it at her
death as she mig 1t see fit.
Throughout the opinion constant
conn arison is made with the Fair will.
in which James G.. Fair left his money
to his heirs but bound them to leave
their shares in turn to certain people.
1t a'so made no provision for a change
in trust without a change in trustee
ship. On these grounds the codicll
was broken. The Supreme Court held
in the Dunphy will that a real trust is
created.

New Tyne Setting Machine.

Linotype experts have invented a new
type-setting machine that is designed to
open up a field for Linotypes in the
smaller towns where the conditions Of
business do not justify an investment
in the standard machine. The new
Linotype is known as "Style b." and
it is said to be the simplest and most
compact one.man machine ever pro.
duced, and has a speed Of over 1000 ems
an hour. Style B" is manufactured
in Toronto. Canada. but arrangements
are he'll & made for its manufacture in
the United States and it will be offered
for sale in a short time. An interest
in g de scription of this machine appears

wizard Produces New Walnut.

Luther Burbank's latest creation is a
rapidly growing walnut tree that bids
fair to hurry up the usual growth OF
the tree and to hurry down the price of
walnut wood. At present walnut wood
costs from $3.50 t. $500 a thousand feet.
Burbank has developed a walnut tree
ty crossing the common English and
the California walnut, that promises to
revolutionize the trade in this wood.
1t is said the new creation grows almost
with the rapidity Of a weed. The wood
takes a beautiful polish, and a splendid
grain showing through.

SOUND MONEY DOCTRINE.
In Tom watson's Magazine for June
appears this

In Tom Watson's Magazine for June
appears this:
The Federal Government should ex'
ercise it's constitutional right TO create a
currency, and should not delegate that
power TO National Banks or to private
citizens or corporations.
The Government should supply the
country with a sufficient amount Of Ma
tional money every dollar OF which
should be equal to any other; every
dollar of which should be a full legal
tend,r for all claims public and private,
and no dollar of which should be made
redeemable in any other dollar.
That is the doctrine the Bee has
preached for forty years. 1t is the
doctrine Of common honesty, the doc
trine of common sense.
And until that doctrine is put in
practice in these United States. this Ma
ton will continue to be a bound thrall
to the money kings.-Sacramento Bee.

sMELis ORE ON new ZINES


American railway interests are g
cooperate with the government Off
Gals in the enforcement of the laws to
prevent the giving of freight rebates
says the San Francisco Call. This was
confirmed in Chicago where there was
completed three weeks ago a protoc d
for the terms of peace between the GOV
eminent and the railways. Western
railway interests have been prominent
in forcing the fasteners into line and
forming a plan to stop evil railway
practices throughout the country. By
January 1, it is said, the first ordess
looking to the putting of the new
policy in operation will 60 forth from
New York.
This is the program declared to have
been adopted by the roads on the al
vice of a majority of twenty of the
best known railroad attorneys of the
country; no renewals of contracts Of
secret rebate agreements between
freight traffic officials and Shipper;
no extension of private car line in
fuence; concerted effort to curb in
dustrial railways, which by demanding
an equitable division of freights, have
wrung rebates from the big railroads
for manufacturing concerns.
The first step toward the agreement
with the government by which the re-
bate prosecutions may be stopped was
taken a month ago. The men in con
troll of the big railway systems de.
manded from New York information
concerning western sentiment in re
bates. The most glazing lnfringements
and evasions Of the interstate com
merce laws have been in the west and
the railway leaders in New York want.
ed to know what was to be the end 81
the resulting trouble with the govern.
ment. The freight traffic officers fo:'
warded reports to New York and the
result has been that the interstate
commerce commission members were
told in New York that the railways
were about to institute reforms of a
sweeping character.
The reforms came on the advice OF
the railway lawyers, that to continue
fighting the government meant to in
vite disaster.
