strictions imposed upon the peoples |
representatives by the people them |
selves. They are adopted in moments
of calm elaboration. and they are
especially beneficent in periods of
violent passions, or when conspira-
cies are formed for the usurpation
of power or for using the forms of
law for the preparation of injustice.
There is always a certain method
of procedure to he followed in Sc
curing the review of the state acts
by the federal court, or, better, by
the supreme court of the United
States, for that court is not merely
federal court, 1t is the peoples
court 1t reviews a certain class of
state laws just as readily as it re-
views congressional statutes. 1t is
therefore, distinctiyely court of last
resort for state litigants as well as
for litigants striving to have federal
acts interpreted.
Prior to 1898 the legislature of
Alabama passed law reducing tolls,
on a bridge owned by a railroad COM
| pany. The company instructed its
employees to refuse obedience to the
law, in consequence of which action
they were arrested and fined. An
appeal was made to the United States
circuit court under the ground that
the penalties were so heavy as to in
! fict confiscation.
The attorney general of Alabama
appealed to the supreme court of the
| United States, which ordered the
| case to be returned to the state courts
and the employees to be restored to
| the custody of the state officials
1.-THE circuit court, said the supreme
court, Sitting in equity is. without
| jurisdiction to prohibit the institu-
ton or prosecution of these criminal
| i s,xar ~ hn c.tn
procedure to be followed is thus
stated by the supreme court:
Let them appear to the indict-
ment and defend themselves on the
ground that the state statute is re-
pugnant to the constitution of the
United States. The state court is
competent to determine the question
thus raised and is under the duty
to enforce the mandates of the SUI
preme law of the land, and if the
question is determined adversely to
the defendants by the highest court
of the state, in which decision can be
had, the judgment may be re-exam-
ined by this court upon writ of err
ror''
The supreme court here recognizes
state court as being court of
competent jurisdiction to hear and
to determine questions concerning
the constitution of the United States.
1t does not recognize what has grown
to be a popular classification of our
courts-the federal courts dealing
only with federal questions and the

Dartlnert is impressed with the idea
that it would be better to have no

their activities to be so limited as to
damage their efficiency in time of war.
The United States navy has profited

weakness which has resulted from the
accidents to the British Al and AS, the
French Farfadct and the Russian Del

long step toward the prevention of this
hatch trouble has been taken in the
