An accident in the United States
Court at indianapolis, is attracting
a great deal of attention throughout
the entire country. In the opening
OF certain case against one Carey
w. Miller, charged with embezzle-
ment in the First National Bank OF
indianapolis, 1t was brought out that
the district attorney had received in
structions from President Hayes to
enter nolie proseqm in the case OF
the defendent. This interference ON
the part of the executive was at once
resented by the judge, who in an
able exposition of the case informed
the grand jury that their oaths bound
them to try all cases without preju-
dice on one hand, and without fear
or favor on the other, and that the OBJ
legation of their oath was imperative.
He remarked also that the president
of the United States had no more
power over the court than the Car
of Russia, and that while he did not
regard the President as intending
any wrong he must instruct them to
utterly disregard the presidents or
der, to all of which the district at
torney assented, expressing his read
mess TO try the case at once.
The press generally seem inclined |
to look upon this through the specta-
Giles OF politics as rebuke to
President Hayes, but its significance
is far greater. 1t is the operation
and the first instance of the opera
ton of the principles intended by the
trainers of the constitution, who
made the Judiciary independent of
the executive in view of the possible
encroachnents of an aggressive cen
trnlization Of government powers.
