Fargo JuriSt Speaker at Twin
City Dinner
COURTS and GOVERNMk :
SOBER SECOND THOUGHT or
THE PEOPLE or AMERICA AL
WAYS TO BE DEPENDED ON,
DECLARES THE JuDGE-JUplcl-
AIRY SAFEGUARD AGAINST Ex-
TREMEs.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Dec IA bril-
liant expository address on the rela-
tionship Of the judiciary to the plan
Of American government, and fer
vent plea for the extension into bust
ness life OF the ideals of which re-
ligion is the base were delivered last
night at the Minneapolis club by
Judge G, #. Amidon, of the federal
court at Fargo, before nearly three
hundred bankers from Minneapolis, ST.
Paul Duluth and other cities, the oc-
casion being the sixth annual dinner
OF the Twin City Bankers club. 1t
was expected that Judge Amidon
would make a scholarly effort and
bring into his address some new ideas
gathered from his years of study of
the history of the United States dur
Ing the constructive period, and he did
Sober Second Thought.
Judge An1idon opened with a philo-
sophical study Of the existing condi-
tons of government with reference
particularly to the maintenance of
property rights. He said that the only
comprehensive view is that which dis
regards the appearance in state legis-
latures, or in the common council, OF
radical, impractical propositions for
reform or regulation and looks back
rather past the period of erraticism on
the part of the people as expressed
through their Representatives, through
vista of 125 years, noting that which
has actually been done and noting he
said, that in our history the sober see
ond thought OF the people may always
be trusted.
Herein" Judge Amidon said, "by
placing in our scheme of government
the judiciary as an investigating pow
er between the first thought and the
second sober thought of the people,
is the safeguard that has made the
United States a country in which
rights OF property are maintained ana
secure in greater degree than in any
other country I'm the world
Thought Outlets.
Legislative bodies are outlets"
Judge Amidon said, through which
the thought of the people, mature or
Immature, based upon claim 1udg-
ment or melted by supposed injustice,
must find vent. If it were possible
TO make rule that for ten years to
come there should not be meeting
OF the law -making body, business, it
is to be presumed, from the opposition
OF the conservative men OF property
to agitation, would take on great
strides.
But the effects would be bad There
would be an accumulation of pent up
desire for change, for the righting by
law OF real or imaginary wrongs that
would burst open the vents. The
safeguard against extremism is the
presence of the judiciary, whose base
IS the constitution of the United
States, and the second thought of the
people, which may be trusted.
Judge Amidon closed with an APP
peal for greater confidence in the
ability Of the people, in the long view,
to promote through their representa-
tives such legislation as win main
tain property rights and in the GER
tainty that whatever the people or
the law-making bodies may do, the
judiciary will always remain as a
safeguard.
