Court to-day denied the application
of Jackson w. Giles, on behalf o
himself and 5000 other negroes ir
Montgomery county, Ala, to com.
pei the registrars of the county tc
place their names on the Registration
DOCKS. The case was brought in
the Federal Court for the district of
Alabama, alleging the deprivation
OF their constituent rights under the
fourteenth and fifteenth amend
ments, but that court dismissed the
case for want of jurisdiction, and on
that question it was brought to the
Supreme Court on appeal and bv
certiorari.
Justice Holmes, in delivering the
majority opinion, SAID the question
OF jurisdiction and the merits of the
case at bar were so interviewer that
1t became necessary for the court to
take up both, for it was impossible
to allow, in suit like this, that the !
relief sought should be granted. It t
would be an extraordinary and un-

The justices rendering the major
