PART AT LEAST
Of Corrupt Practices Act
Unconstitutional.
The Section Providing for a
Judicial Investigation
OF Alleged Corrupt Practices Is
Void Says the Law Court.

A reseript of the law court drawn
by Associate Justice Albert NJ. Savage
of the supreme judicial court, which
was made public, Tuesday. declares
that SO much of Section IL of the Cor
rupt Practices act passed by the Leg
islaturc of 1911 as provides for the
creation OF a special tribunal to be be
COMPOSED of justices of the supreme
judicial or superior courts, or both, for
the inquiry into alleged corrupt prac-
tees IN elections, is unconstitutional
and void
This section providing for judicial
investigation of corrupt practices car
ries with il the machinery of the stat
ute in question and renders the act
practically useless.
The Maine corrupt practices act
was taken bodily with few slight
changes and the commission of Sections
13 10 II inclusive from Chapter $50 of
the Public Acts of 1905 of the state Of
Connecticut. The Connecticut act has
been very materially amended at each
of the legislative sessions of 1907, 1909
and 1911 in that state Parts of the
Maine law not consistent with the
Davies direct primary law, which
was enacted by the people, have al
ready been repealed by Section IS of
the Direct Primary law.
Following is the full text of the law
court rescript declaring the section OF
the Corrupt Practices act providing for
judicial investigation of corrupt prac
tees unconstitutional:

legged corrupt practices ia elections,
to be composed of two justices of the
supreme judicial court. or of two JUS
tees of the superior courts. or of one
justice of each court, is special and
Inferior tribunal.
:. Under the limitations of the Con-
stitution OF Maine. Article VI, Section
s. and Article IN, Section ?, no justice
of the supreme judicial court can be
appointed to. or be a member of, an
inferior court, or tribunal; and no
justice of the superior courts can be
appointed to, or be a member of, an
other inferior court. or trihnal.
8. The appointment of the mem
bers of an inferior court or tribunal,
or any of them, is an executive func-
ton, not a judicial one. And the re-
quirement in Section II of Chapter
122 of the Public Laws of 1911, that
the chief justice of the supreme ju
dicial court shall appoint one mem
Der of the tribunal therein provided
for, for an inquiry into alleged cor
rupt practices in elections, is in vio-
lation of Article III, Section 2, of the
Constitution of Maine, which provides
to either the legislative, the executive
or the judicial department of the gov
ernment shall exercise any of the
powers properly belonging to either
of the Others.
4. Whether the tribunal provided
for in Section II of Chapter 122 of the
Public Laws of 1911 is judicial, or in
quisitorial and political, is not de-
cided If judicial, the justices of the
supreme judicial and superior courts
cannot be members of it; if inquisi-
torial or political merely, its functions
do not belong to the judicial depart
ment and, therefore, under the limi-
tations of constitutional power, can
not be exercised by members of the
judicial department.

tempted To be created in violation of
