STATE ORDERED {
TO PAY $4,000
Must Refund Money Received
for Big Basin
TO LEHIGH VALLEY RAILROAD
Opinion Filed by Viee-Chaneeilor
Stevens Requires That Sums Paid
for the Riparian Grant With
Interest Be Returned.

Especial Trenton Correspondence
Trenton.-Under the terms OF an
opinion filed by Vice-Chancellor Stew
ems the state will have until Marcn
1, 1917, to return to the Lehigh val
ley Railroad Company $4,000, with
interest since 1889, paid by the rail-
road for the riparian grant at the
Big Basin in Jersey City, and ubse
quently set aside as void by a decree
of the Court of Chancery, which was
affirmed by the Court Of Errors n
Appeals March 8 last. The amount
involved now aggregates more than
500, 900. Following the aftirmance OF
the chancellor's decree, the Lehigh1
Valley applied to ViceNChancellor
Stevens for an order directing i'm
mediate payment by the state. h
opinion points out various difficulties
which would result from an attempt
to enforce such an order, remarking
that it would probably necessitate the
calling of a special session of the
Legislature. AS pointed out in the
opinion, a certificate from State Con-
troller Edward l. Edwards disclosed
that the $4S, 600 was turned into the
school fund, from which, under the
Constitution, it could not be diverted
for any other purpose. The court
pointed out that the money thus cred.
tied rightly or wrongly to the school
fund had presumably been expended.
"The money paid in was c~omingled,"
said Vice-Chancellor Stevens, with
the rest of the school fund income,
and has nc separate identity, ven if
it has not been spent. 1t cannot be
traced as a fund or restored as such.
1t was not apparently invested, and
it certainly has not continuously from
the day it was received earned inter-
est at six per cent-the rate that the
state must pay. In view of the con-
stitutional provision, it is clear that
neither the court MOI the Legislature
itself could take any part of the
school fund not derived from the $48,-
600 paid in. 1t does not appear that
there is any appropriation made by
the Legislature out of which the
whole amount of interest needed, a
sum with the principal, now exceed
ing $100, 600, could be realized even
If this court could, without express1
legislative authority, direct the proper
state officers to take from the school
bonds the principal sum of $48, GOD
1t is probable that in order to sai
the basin to the state the Governor
would, if the court should now order
that the money be repaid before the
next Legislature assemblies, feel him.
self obliged to call a special session.
That is a reasonable time to make
payment which is reasonable under
all the circumstances of the case.
If legislative action is required it
would not be a reasonable time if 1t
did not give the Legislature an OPP
%portunity to act in the customary
way. In view of the fact that the
payment is comparatively small, that
the parties themselves have voluntar-
lily postponed for four years or more
and that the company will receive
interest, l think the time designated
should be some time after the Legisla-
ture meets, and that March 1, 1917
would not be too long"

Paris.-The tragic end of Earl Kitch-

fact that Kitchener fought for France

mind and went far to obliterate any

distinction of being the only police
official who secures alfalfa for his pay
instead of money. He is given all
the alfalfa that grows in the streets,

three times a year. In good seasons

"In the Lewiston Orchards some
of the farmers have planted alfalfa
along the lanes and there too the
weed nuisance is about solved"
Mr.. Cohen reports that everywhere
the grain crops are two to three weeks
later than normal. Owing to the
short acreage in practically all sec
lions of the Northwest; in fact all
through the United States and in Eu-
rope, the crops are short for this
same reason. The quality of the grain
was never better.

The elimination of Jim Hill mus.

only a big money-saver to Latah and

statement was made by LYMAN H. Co.

"There is a disposition among many

situation. They fail to take into con-
sideration the vitality that is taken
from the soil by these weeds and in
the case of the Jim Hill mustard, the
trouble experienced in harvesting the
crops where these weeds are present
in numbers.
ILLUMINATION of the weed nuisance

to the conclusion that the only way
to really eliminate the weeds and mus
tard and at the same time to create
greater wealth is to compel the plant

should be passed to that effect and en-
forced rigidly in all sections of the
Northwest. The railroads at the same

manner.
1T is foolhardy-in fact a waste of
time, pure and simple-for one farm
er to take care of the weeds on his
place or in front of his property when
his next door neighbor refuses to do
anything. Protective measures are
necessary to save the lazy farmer from
himself.

war. according to officers who have
returned from Verdun. When the
smoke and dust cleared, nothing was
to be seen but heaps of bodies
The spur on which the fort Is situat-

The German lines were forced to halt,
but many Bavarian reservists climbed
upon one anothers shoulders and
struggled up the slope, elnging to an
giles of rock and grasping tufts of
grass. Again and again these human
pyramids collapsed into shapeless gray
masses. At the lowest estimate the at
tackers lost two-thirds of their ef-
fectives
The fighting was extremely desper-
ate when regiments of the Fifteenth
and Eighteenth German army corps
attacked the village of Vaux on Fri
day The Germans got within rushing
distance of the French front trenches,
hut although they outnumbered the
defenders six to one, it took four dis
tinct assaults before the first column
of Germans won the shelter of a small
group Of houses beyond the church Of
VauX. They then organized an assault
upon the church. Five times the
north Prussian regiments rushed to at
tack the church. but every time they
left the shelter of the ruined houses
they were beaten back In the mean
time in their rear a curtain of fire
was kept up by the French 75's and
21O's. SO that il was impossible for
munitions and reinforcements To be
brought up for their benefit, and the
fight died down Friday night from
sheer exhaustion.
