Justice Lamar on tho Law.
Contempt sentences, Justice Lamar
said, were OF several classes. but
principally they occurred where first
a defendant refused to obey court
order. He could be sentenced to jail
until he complied Then. he said.
there would be the case where he hao
done something which the court had
ordered him not to do. In the latter
case. he said, the logical punishment
would be payment OF fine,
imprisonment cannot remedy
something which has been done the
justice said Such imprisonment does
not operate as remedy, but as a
punitive step"
Continuing. he cited various papers
in the case to show that the Bucks
Company prosecuted the contempt
case itself and prayed for relief. This,
he said. showed that some remedy
was desired and for this reason the
punishment should have been fine.
No Remedy Now Necessary.
fiH4 heeauso the two parties had set
tied their controversy he announced
that it was the opinion of the court
that any remedy for an act, the con-
sequences of which had already been
adjusted, was not necessary at this
time.
BY far the largest crowd that has
been in the court room this term heard
the opinion Senators LaFoiIettes
O'Gorman, Crane. Brown and Bailey
We're among the spectators. The space
reserved for the bar was crowded, half
a score of lawyers standing through
