RAaM NrNB

Amendment is, that citizens shall not sue
states in the federal courts.
Judicial power of that kind; not conceded to
the central Government, but is reserved to
the States
For hundred years, that principle has been
recognized Every lawyer who has read his
books. knows that the 18th Amendment grew
out OF the attempted usurpation of power by
the federal Judge in the Chisolm case.
Yet, Pritchard, of North Carolina, and Jones,
OF Alabama, are now trying to do the very
thing which the states were so determined to
prevent that they put their determination into
the shape of Constitutional Amendment.
When Judge Pritchard, at the instance of
an artificial person-The Southern Railroad
enjoins the State Commission of Virginia, and
attempts to prevent the State of North Car
olina from enforcing its laws, he violates the
r3th Amendment to the Constitution of the
United States.
When Judge Jones of Alabama, at the in
stance of the Louisville and Nashville Rail
road, restrains the State from enforcing state
authority and law, he violates the r3th Amend
ment.
These two Federal Judges are now doing
precisely what Chief Justice Marshall decided
could be done, but which the states-deter-
mined that the Federal Judiciary should have
no such revolutionary and despotic power
CHANGED THE CONSTITUTION TO
PREVENT THE FEDERAL JUDGES
FROM DOING.
With their monstrous decisions confusing
the right to net profits with the security of title
these corporation judges have grated on to
the law OF property principle hitherto un-
known to the history of jurisprudence; and
now, by enjoining states at the instance of
railroads, they have made the I4th Amendment
to the Constitution SLAY ITS ELDER
BROTHER, THE THIRTEENTH.
1t these two men, Jones and Pritchard es-
cape impeachment, they will not get their
just dues.
And Alabama allows herself run over bv
the railroads and their lawyers, we shall be
greatly surprised.
States do not have to beg Federal Judges
for permission to make and enforce laws
States are vested with ample powers to pro-
tect themselves from corporation greed as well
as from judicial usurpation
All the state needs is Governor with head
on his shoulders, and a heart that is in the right
place. -
I would like to see August Belmont of the
L. & NJ. or Finley and Thompson of the South
ern, or Ryan's crowd on the Seaboard try that
game on the State of Georgia.
[ venture to say that when our Extra Ses-
sion comes on and something is done on this
Railroad situation railroad lawyers, off and
on the bench, wifi think twice before thew tack
lie Hoke Smith with their ready-made iniunc-
tions.
The reason why the lobbyists are fighting
so desperately to prevent railroad legislation
in Georgia is. THEY KNOW THOSE LAWS
WILL BE ENFORCED, Federal Judges to
contrary, Notwithstanding
Watson's weekly Jeffersonian., 1907-08-22
Tom Hardlrick of the Z enth.

A little bit of fellow who looks like a
sassy school-boy butting into the affairs of
grown men, Tom Hardwick of the Tenth Con-
gressional District is today the brainiest man
in the Georgia Delegation.
He has demonstrated juster claim to be
ranked as statesman than anybody in the
bunch
Honest as the day is long, quick as hair
trigger pistol brave as Highlander, loyal
as Douglas, "Hardwick of Georgia" will
some day be the acknowledged peer of any
Democratic leader in the Union.
The beauty of it is, his Democracy can also
be spelled with small d-not only on the
hustings and at home, but among the lobbyists
of Atlanta and along the tell-tale pages of
the Congressional Record.
Watson's weekly Jeffersonian., 1907-08-22

Republicans to disarm the National Comnis-
sion. You helped the railroads snatch away
from the Commission most effective weapon
which had been put into it's hands by Judge
Reagan of Texas.
Why did you do it2
The editor of the Jackson News, appeals
to the Congressional Record, and challenges
the accusers of Mr.. Williams to find these
votes which Mr.. Watson criticises.
Like the Act of Congress which increased
tie salaries of members, there was no record
vote on these propositions Statesmen who
wanted to emasculate the Rate bill did not
want their names down on the record. So
the vote was by sound of voice, and not by
Ay es and Nays entered of record.
Consequently, the editor of the Jackson
News might feel safe in denying that Will
liams voted as Watson said.
But Mr.. Williams wouldn't
The Hon. John Sharp Williams will never
deny over his own signature, that he voted
precisely as Mr. Watson charged.
The worst of it for Mr. Williams is this:
He knows that had the people of Mississip-
pi been aware of those votes two weeks ear
lier, he would have been beaten out of his
boots.
In view of these facts Mr. Williams duty is
plain. He owes it to himself and to his state
to let his people be heard again.
AS proud man, he ought not to let the
matter rest where it is. 1t looks too much
like getting valuable goods under false pre-
lenses.
He owes it to himself and to his people to
put this question to another vote.
But he will never do it.
HE rs AFRAID TO DO IT.
