(117 property to any Institution not under cases reserving to the.State the right granting aid pursuant to section 22 of this urtlcle.” datory act of 18 7 it is attempted erty is not the owner of it. The law of 189 repeatedly declares that the portion coming to the State “shall be duc and payable at the death of the decedent.” ‘And it is further provided t from that time until pald over in the course of administration the sum 80 due the State shall hear interest, and interest shall be paid on the sum 80 due the State. It would be absurd to exact Interest for the detention or use of money or that the right of inheritance, includ- ing the designation of heirs, and the portions which the several heirs shall receive, as well as the right of testa- mentary disposition, are entirely mat- ters of statutory enactment, and with- in the control of the Legislature. It to the State, it is too clear for argu- “The ownership of a thing Is the right of one or more persons to possess and but the right to pessess, that consti- tutes the ownership; and owmership may be “of rights created or granted by statute,” as the case here. It would be altogether a new definition in the law to hold that one who had not ob- tained possession of a thing or had parted with its possession could not be the owner of such thing. This would be contrary to the teachings of ele- mhentary law, which recognizes a right Upon strength and agility in obtaining and holding possession of things. The purpose of the act of 1897, as ap- pears by its title, was merely to amend the act of 1893. Section 1 of the latter act amends section 1 of the act of 1893 title of the act, and for the further tion is apparent. To take public funds from the treasury and give them away owner thereof. It is said, however, on behalf of ap- pellants that the Legislature may not only amend, but repeal the law alto- gether, in which case there would be no means of obtaining possession of the sums due the State not already turned over. The Legislature might, perhaps, abolish or repeal all laws for the collection of debts; this, however, would not have the effect of paying or remain as before. These, by funda- mental law, are placed beyond the reach of legislative interference. In substance, if not in form, to turn over the fund in question belonging to the State to the appellants would be 1899, p. 101), passed after the rehearing VAN DYKE, J. ‘We concur: s which it has caused in FEurope and America, is particularly striking and appropriate.
