TESTING NEW LAWS.

At least two important acts OF the
last legislative session are already or
their way to the supreme court for the
test Of their constitutionality. One OF
these is the weekly payment law. The
Burlington Free Press says
The weekly payment law. which
was passed last fall by the Vermont
Legislature, will 90 into effect on June
l. and inasmuch as it is claimed to be
of doubtful constitutional v and as il
affects hundreds OF corporations in all
parts OF the state, it has been arranged
by the encouragement and counsel
for some of the larger corporations, to
make up test case tor the supreme
court at the next session of that body.
In the meantime all other prosecutions
under the law are to be withheld till
the test case is decided. This plan,
which is simple, will save both the
state and the corporations from large
expense in protracted litigation"
No hint is here given as to the
identity OF the corporations that will
put the law to the test, or what they

The attempt to make walking on the
railroad track misdemeanor. punish
able by fine, always fails. The only
protection railroads have is an action
of trespass, which amounts to nothing.
Pedestrians continue to make the rail-
road track footpath at will. 1t is
true they themselves take the greater
risk OF danger, but the railroads bear a
share OF the responsibility, always,
and it is not pleasant thing to kill or
MAIN people even when they are tres
passers. When you get down to the
right OF it, the railway lands are as
much private grounds as any, though
the public does not view it that way.
On account of the danger involved, it
would be a safeguard to prohibit by
special enactment walking on the rail
road track. But such proposition is
always turned down by the legislature,
rejecting the popular view that per-
son walking the track does nobody
any harm unless the engine hits him,
and if it does it's his own funeral.

Swanton has done wisely in voting
to put up Tor a good gravity water
system, even though it will cost a
pretty figure. Those towns lying on
low ground near the lake shore, quite
remote from elevated water sources,
have more of a problem than our east
side towns, located in the midst of
hills fairly bubbliug with pure springs
and streams. But good drinking
water is so valuable an asset that no
reasonable outlay should be spared to
secure it. Burlington, apparently, is
still undecided as to how it will filter
its proposed lake supply.

railroads are taking this steps
proper one on their part. II they see
Dit. The bill that passed was q close
pattern OF the Massachusetts law
which has been upheld in that state
However, ii flaws can be found In II,
the corporation attorneys may bs
trusted to seek them out.
A somewhat peculiar condition
exists In Barre. where some OF the
granite manufacturing concerns are
corporations. and as such within the
operation of the weekly payment law,
while others are partnerships. which
the law cannot regulate in this regard,
Under an agreement between all the
manufacturers. both corporations and
partnerships, on the one hand. and
the labor unions on the other. pay
ments for wages are to be made bi.
monthly, or fortnightly, until the
expiration OF the agreement next
March. The employing corporations
claim that this contract, entered into
before the act was passed. cannot be
impaired thereby. and announce their
intention OF following il, rather than
the law requiring payments weekly
after June LIST.
A somewhat similar question will
come before the supreme court on an
appeal from Orleans county court. in
volving the telephone act passed last
tall. Under this law, railroad com.
panies are required to install in their
depot offices, or permit the installation
of, telephone instruments OF all COM
panies without discrimination. pro-
viding they have at least five hundred
connections. The Boston & Maine,
refusing to |. stall telephones Of the
Peoples company, has been directed
by the count to do so. and will carry
the case up to the higher court for a
ruling.
The Boston & Maine has contract
with the Bell Telephone company by
which the latter is given the sole and
exclusive privilege OF Installing tele-
phones at lis stations "A manifest ad-
vantage over any rival company, like
the Peoples. This contract is In
effect perpetual, being renewable at
the option OF the Bell people. The
Peoples company presented their case
at Montpelier last fall and received a
sympathetic hearing.
The bill that passed was intended
to remove what seemed to be an
unfair handicap suffered by small
concern in its struggle with power
full one. While the existence of the
contract between the Boston & Maine
and the Bell company was known at
the time, its nature appeared to be Of
such questionable public policy as to
make it no bar to the desired legisla-
ton. TIE lower court has waved the
contract aside and pronounced the law
its master. The supreme court will!
now consider it.
Every legislative session raises
questions for courts to pass upon.
Law is never law till it has been tried
in the crucible and the supreme court
has set its seal of approval thereon.

THE FENCES MUST COME DOWN

In issuing directions today to the
commissioner Of the general land OF.
fee, the secretary of the interior car
ries into effect the announcement made
by President Roosevelt during the re
cent session of congress-. that unless
some measure Of range control should
be provided for by legislation, it would
be necessary to carry into effect, with
out further delay or modification, the
law against illegal enclosure of public
lands.
1t was the intention of the president,
had some form of grazing law been en-
acted, to allow the small ranchmen
who had reasonable areas OF public
lands enclosed for grazing purposes
to lease these lands from the govern
ment, and with a legitimate title thus
acquired, the fences enclosing them
would not have to be removed.
The proposed leasing measure was
introduced primarily to help the hun
dreds of small ranchmen in this situa-
ton, rather than az a measure to as
sumo control Of all the vacant public
lands of the west.
The determined opposition to the
leasing proposition manifested by a
large number Of western senators and
representatives made 1t impossible to
carry into effect the presidents wishes
and the departments Of the interior
and justice will not combine to enforce
the anti-fencing law.-Denver Republi-
can.
