New, York, Oct. 27.--Reply to criti-
cism Of his recent speech suggesting
the abolition Of the right Of appeal
In criminal cases a. possible means
Of checking the lynching habit Is made
by Justice David J. Brewer, Of the
United States supreme court, In an
article entitled THE Right Of Appeal"
In the current issue Of the Independ-
emit. Justice Brewer presents pierre
Ing analysis Of the system Of appeal
az 1t exists In the United States to-day,
and refutes in telling fasion the argu-
ments against his suggestion. The
article makes an excellent brief in
support of his general thesis, that
Justice delayed 10 often Justice de-
MED"
The outline around which Justice
Brewer has built up his argument 10
a. follows: The right Of appeal Is not
constitutional right: neither is 1t q
natural right. It is merely q statutory
privilege, which the state may grant
or deny at its pleasure. He then con-
siders the effects Of the unrestricted
right Of appeal, finding that It tends
to prevent the punishment Of crime
and transfers the stress Of litigation
from the lower to the higher court,
thus lessening both the standard and
the responsibility Of the former and
overwhelming the latter. He next de-
fines the position and work Of the ap-
pellate court as he would have 1t, hold
ing that privilege Of appeal should be
under the control of that court and
not be right at the absolute disposal
Of the complainant. He would not
take away from the higher court the
right Of reviewing judgments. but
would give 1t the added power Of de-
termining the advisability Of the re-
vision. This privilege would, In his
system, hold good not only in criminal,
but also in civil cases.
In introducing his argument, Jus
tice Brewer said: TAXA
Some delight in the continuance
Of litigation, for thereby their pecuni-
airy interests are subserved, and those
interests are deemed more important
than the public welfare. Again there
are some persons who are associated,
politically or in a business way, with
those engaged in wrongdoing,> and to
all such the idea Of prompt punish
ment- Indeed, of any punishment--is
abhorrent. But beyond these It is un-
doubtedly true that to many Of our
best citizens the taking away Of the
right of appeal seems a grievous
wrong. To them l wish to say few
words" st
Then, taking up the points made by
him against the constitutional and nat
ural rights Of appeal, Justice Brewer
continues:
What is meant by the right Of ap-
peal? Practically 1t is a claim Of a
right to two trials. It is not right
guaranteed by the constitution of the
United States. Neither is 1t q natural
right, for upon what principle Of natu-
raj Justice can 1t be said that the state
owes the duty Of providing q second
tribunal to inquire whether the first
one has erred? II 1t does owe any
such duty, may 1t not also be contend
ed that 1t also owes the further one
of providing third tribunal? And
where is the limit%
