Tho stnto'B Interest In tho locks at

for rehcnrlng In tho case of tho
stuto v. tho Portland Genornl Glee

day's decision 1b ascertained to bo
an Investment from tho common
school fund by virtue of an net of
tho legislature of 1870 which grant
ed n llko sum to tho original com
pany for tho construction of the
locks.
Furthermore an accounting is now
duo from tho corporation by which
tho utato will rccolvo 10 por cent of
tho net rovenuo from tho locks bIiicc
1897. Tho sum will rovort to tho
school fund. By tho torms of tho
original grnnt 10 por cont of tho
proceeds should have been paid to
tho statu annually, but nil thnt share
which should havo been paid boforo
1897 can never bo recovorod by tho
state becnuBO qf tho Htntuo or limi

Mny.
Tho way Is now clear for tho Joint

quate to cover the largo district in
the city, nnd bb far as a police ser
geant wns concorncd, an official of
this kind is never necessary unless
the patroling force aggregates a
