Mr.. SrRrcKLAxp said he was placed
in peculiar position on thus
question. but he should vote regardless OF
nsrty. Should he vote for increase Ut salary
Il might be reckoned ~ hottie to the party
With which he was affiliated; or il he vote6
against it, that action might be interpreted
into belief that he considered
this partisan court, and tnat
he did not claim to do. He should vote
in q spirit of generosity and audacify; ana
related graphic incident in the battle OF
Corinth to illustrate this point lie had Z
right TO commend the court for being bold and
stalwart, and standing up squarely for what
it supposed to be right But the court Is not
above criticism; it does not bind the con-
science or the individual judgment. Its prov
ince is to settle disputed questions between
man and mantle settlement of practlcA
questions. So in voting for the increase he
should do it with the same audacious gener-
ositv that actuated the soldier at Corinth. " 40
