THE SUPREME COURT AND THE
 CONSTITUTION.

MT. Victor l.. Berger. the Social list member of Congress, has intro duced in the House an old age pension bill which proposes that the general government shall pro- vide pensions for all persons ln| need when they shall have passed the period of life wherein they are capable of caring for themselves in their declining years, and shall not want. nor become inmates of poor houses nor objects of charity.
 This article however is not to call attention directly to the measure proposed by Mr. Berger, but it is addressed particularly to the astounding discovery made by the gentleman from Wisconsin, and presented in speech in the House on the seventh of August last, in support of the bill, at the time of its introduction, that under the Constitution of the United States the Congress has the power, and has exercised it, of prohibition against the Supreme Court taking jurisdiction over any law it may pass, by incorporation of simple clause excepting that law from consideration by the Court as to its constitutionality.
 Mir. Berger finds this power of Congress in the last clause of the second paragraph in the second section of article three of the Con. stitution, which reads:
 !" < the supreme court shall have appellate jurisdiction, both as to law and fact, tOith such e1ceptjoaS and under such regulations as the Congress shall make"
 There is the power. All Con- gress has to do is to put into any Act one sentence excepting that particular Act from consideration by the Supreme Court, and that sentence ends the matter. The laao stands, and the Supreme Court cannot nullify it. In support of his position MT. Berger quoted history as shown in the following paragraphs:
 "MR. BERGER. On March 27. 1868, Congress passed law pro- hibiting the Supreme Court from passing on the constitutionality of the reconstruction laws which it had passed after the Civil War This law Was passed over Presi. dent Johnson's veto.
 "The cause of this defiant posi-. tlon of Congress was the fact that the Attorney General had ex- pressed an opinion that the recon structlon laws were unconstitution. al. He also refused to appear against one McCardle, of Missis- sippi, who had an appeal for a habeas corpus writ before the Supreme Court. McCardle had been arrested by the military ont bOr;,;oa eoa

up before the Supreme Court on April 12, 1868, Chief Justice Chase, in the opinion of the entire court, said:
 It is quite true, as was argued by the petitioner that the appellate jurisdic- tion of this court is not derived from the acts of Congress. It is, strictly speak ing, conferred by the Constitution. But it is conferred with such exceptions and under such regulations as Congress shall make
 Also
 We are not at liberty to inquire into the motives of the legislature. We can only examine into it's power under the Constitution, but the power to make exceptions to the appellate jurisdiction is given in express words.
 What then, is the effect of the re- pealing act upon the case before us? We can not doubt as to this: Without jurisdiction the court can not proceed at all in any cause. Jurisdiction is power to declare the law, and when it ceases to exist, the only function remain ing to the court is that of announcing the fact and dismissing the cause. And this is dot less clear upon authority than upon principle.
 Also
 "It is quite clear, therefore, that this court can not proceed to pronounce judgment in this case, for it has no longer jurisdiction of the appeal and judicial duty is not less fitly performed by declining ungranted jurisdiction than in exercising firmly that which the Constitution and the laws confer
 The foregoing decision clearly shows that the Supreme Court can not have jurisdiction when it is withheld by Congress.
 Had Congress seen fit to insert an exception into the income tax act which was nullifed by the Supreme Court, by the court re- versing itself after having sustained the law in a preceding decision, the court would have been deprived of the power to consider the constitu- tionality of the law, and it would have been upon the statute book all the years since, yielding mil lions of revenue from people well able to pay; and there is not a piece of benefcent legislation that has been nullifed by the Supreme Court that could not have been preserved had Congress been in earnest. as it was when dealing with Andrew Johnson and his ca binet.

Good-Gillin Crowd Get Blow in
~ Judge Troup's Decision.
MAKE oVEKTUaEs TO GRBBIE

ing Inherent Weakness of Po-

The carefully devised scheme of the
Good-Gillin gang O. professional office
holders fell flat yesterday afternoon in
1.-The district court when Judge Troup
ruled that City Clerk Good would have
TO place the names of the citizens nomi-
nees on the ballot despite the danger to
Good and GiIlin's perpetual office-hclding
aspirations.
Both Good and Gillin recognize that
there is determined fight made upon
them by the great mass Of common
voters in the city. In their efforts to win
out, both men are said to be making
overtures to their opponents. Within the
last few days William Broderick, brother
in-law OF John Gillln. saloon keeper and
member Of the democratic city central
committee, has made overtures to John
Gribble, candidate for treasurer on the
citizens ticket. Gillin wanted Gribble TO
pull off the ticket and give him a clear
field for two years longer. He has made
the same argument during the rather
long period OF his political life. Griooie
explained to Gilln's emissary that he was
not seeking the office for honor or
emolument. but because 1t seemed to be
the opinion OF a number OF good citizens
that he would correct the evil conditions
that now exist.
Perry Wheeler, republican candidate for
city clerk. at whose aspirations City
Clerk Good says he laughs, tells story
about a visit from J. W. Jordan, clerk
In the office of Treasurer John Gillin.
He says the remark was laughingly
made by Jordan that Good considered
wheelers candidacy as a means Of get
ting a political job. 1t was further inti-
mated that in the event of Wheeler's
withdrawal Good would appoint him
deputy. Wheeler says he Is South
