In Characterization Of John Mar
shall Sen. Beveridge compared him
with Abraham Lincoln. TO whom he
bore strikingly similar resem-
blance. both physically and metal
".
John Marshall was reared in an
atmosphere Of intense nationalism
that was so inherent that in spite Of
prosecuting public opinion he up
held on successive occasions the doc
trine OF solidarity versus state rights
and 10 his convictions Of those IN
bred principles ne adhered to his
old age, the complete happiness Of
which was married by the reversal
OF a number of his decisions BY an
adverse congress" Mr. Beveridge
said.
In explaining the great contribu-
ton with which John Marshall has
endowed the government, Mr.. Bev-
eridge defined the supreme power
which that pioneer chief justice had
established as a lever by which the
hitherto substantial court court
should WELD an authority superior
TO congress and president and be-
como the most potent factor in the
councils OF the nation.
