SENATE CONFIRMS
BRANDEIS, At TO 22

Continued from First raEeD
twelve charges against Mr.. Brandeis
had been sustained by the evidence,
aud that. in addition, proof had been
offered Of the bad reputation of Mr..
Brandeis among the lawyers OF the
Boston bar.
Never before in the history OF the
country has a man been appointed Il
Justice Of the Supreme Court Of the
United states whose honesty and in
teErity We're seriously brought in
question" declared the minority. 1T
must be evident 10 any thinking and
unbiased mind tina, this appointment
has resulted from something other
than the qualifications and fitness OF
the appointee for the Office.
We regard il as "a great misfortune
ana a distinct lowering OF the standard
heretofore maintained in making APP
pu;n,ments TO this high Office that one
could be selected for the place whose
reputation for honesty and integrity
amongst his associates AT the bar hal
been proved TO be bad which reputa
ton has been justifed by his own
course OF conduct. We cannot con
sCicntiously give our consent to the
confirmation OF such an appointment
In the report Of the majority. Mr..
Brandcis's action in all the cases re
fcrred to by the minority was defended.
1t was recalled that Mr.. Brandeis would
not he the first able judge appointed TO
tho Supreme Court who had been the
object of bitter and unjust attack.
The report then referred 10 the oppo-
sition to the nominations of Justice
Matthews. Justice Storey and Chief
Justice fancy.
PETITIONS IN SUPPORT
OUTWEIGH OPPOSITION
The majority held that the petitions
and letters in support of Mr.. Bran,ieis
and particularly from Boston, far out
weighed the opposition. Continuing, 1t
said:
We should be certain to have an
honest. capable man upon the bench,
but unless one be appointed who has
not had the capacity and the courage
to take part in the discussions of the
last quarter of century, which have
been pregnant with constructive legls-
lation and decisions, rs we'll as un-
derGoins revolution in public senti-
ment regarding many questions, then
Ii would be hard to find one, whom,
either malice or interest could not
easily disqualify."
The new justice was born sixty years
ago in Louisville. Ky, graduated from
Harvard University in 1877. and began
the practice of law i'm Boston after
admission to the bar in 1873. He prob
