that Justice Bierer publicly stated tina:
ii woulod be a public calamity to render
an adverse opinion so lons as a declsion
concerning the same question was on
record, and he was emphaticaiiy oppos-
ed to taking any action until the wal
lace Builen decision was stricken from
the record.
Before his elevation to the bench JUS
tice eKaton was radically opposed 10 tne
territorial equalization and a. the III he-
o emocratic convention wrote a resoiu-
ton condemning the supreme court loc
its action in sustaining the board OF
equalization So bitter was the resoiu-
ton tina. even the radical Demo-Pops
were Shocked and refused 10 give IL
place in the resolutions until mooiheo.
When this circumstance was menilohso
in the Eagle a short time ago Judge
Keaton wrote a letter in wnicn ne Stated
that in case Of such importance ne
would not be prepared 10 concur Win
either side until he had made full ana
thorough examination Of the whole ques-
ton and all Of the authorities cited ne
was also in favor OF giving the attorney
general an opportunity 10 be nearo Iui-
Their in the case and 70 cite any auoi-
tional authorities No such opportunity
was given the attorney general for argu-
u,ent: nevertheless, Justice Keaton wrote
an opinion after an lnVesugaHoh Cum
Quoted on his own lnies.
