the salary OF the president from $25 900
TO $4,000 and the pay Of members OF
congress to 5000. There was fierce

Two Greatest Cases.

The two greatest impeachment trials
OF American history, those of Justice
Chase and President Johnson. must
both be considered In reality political
trials. There Is no question that both
originated in political differences and
that in both the result. had either been
convicted, would have been largely po-
liical. In 1904 the partisan bitterness
between the old line Federallsts and
the Republicans--the old anti-Federal-
ists-was at white heat
Samuel Chase. who was signer Of
the Declaration Of Independence, had
won wide renown as a lawyer before
he became chief justice Of the criminal
court in Maryland, from which, in
1916. he had been transferred by
Washington to the United States su-
preme court as an associate Justice
Although as deeply learned in the law
as any member of the court save Mar
shall and entirely above reproach. so
far as his personal integrity was con
cerned, Chase was temperamentally
better fitted by reason of his overbear-
ing manner and Feasibility to be
prosecuting attorney than a judge.
His intimate friendship with Washing

to federal principles aroused the wrath
of the Republican leaders in congress
and marked him as an object of their

Andrew johnson is the most famous
both because of the questions involved
and because of the personality and
official position of the accused. 1t fol
lowed as the elimination Of two and

and the chief executive over recon

crisis was precipitated by the action

Justice Chase's Trial.

John Randolph Of Roanoke took the
lead against Justice Chase. and it was
largely through his influence and en-
ergy that the house of representatives
In 1904 presented articles of impeach-
ment against him.
Chase's trial before the senate fur
nished one of the most dramatic cpl
sodes seen up to that time in the halls
of congress. 1t attracted the atteD-
ton of the entire nation. The benches
assigned to the senators, the jury in
the case. were draped with crimson.
To accommodate the women, who at
tended In large numbers. a new gal
lery was fitted up with separate boxes
fer the ladies Of the administration
circle" Maryland friends Of the ac-
cused justice thronged to the capitol
in such large numbers that they could
not all be accommodated. Vice Presi-
dent Burr presided with "a dignity and
impartiality which won general praise.
The venerable justice took his seat in
the center of the senate chamber In
front of the presiding officer. He was
defended by a eoterie of brilliant law
yers.
At the conclusion Of the arguments
the senate voted to aequit on five Of
the eight articles in the charges. But
even on the three remaining articles
the vote fell considerably short Of the
necessary two-thirds majority required
to sustain vote OF impeachment.
Justice Chase continued to sit on the
bench of the supreme court undisturb
ed by further attacks until his death
in 1911.
