Well, ns 1 was gnm' tu say, It was a

I was saunteriu' round, kinder half sick nnd

Curious Decision In Conrgltt.
tiiL'tloiiini; tlio I'ouer of flic
I. M. Courts.
A most extraordinary legal tluouion has
lately been pronounced by tho Supicmo
Court of tho Slnto of (Soorgla. ThoxaKo
was ono in which precedent established
by tho U. S. Supremo Court hnd boon quo
ted ns niilhorily. Tho opinion of tho court
was rendered by JjiJg" Huiuiiug vlio be
gan by laying dotf tho proposition ''that
government no jhiwlt y tmplltMiun, out
only delegated such powers as wore cxjrr.u
ly enumerated."
'Jlio following nro somo of the bold and-.
novel conclusions to which tho Court by n
long courso of reasoning under tho main
proposition, arrived :
"'Iliat tho npjM'llntfl jurisdiction delega
ted lo tiio U. S. Supremo Court npplirui on
ly to tlio inferior Courts of tiio 0. S., and -ordained
nnd estnbliihed by Congress and
not to State Courts.
"Tliat if tho II. S. Courts havo power
ovor tlio Stain Courts, they would also have
power over 'tho Statu laws iwwcr over
tlio operation of those laws within tho
Territory of tho United Slates jrntrcr to
nullify every act of the States."
'llio final conclusion is that "tho Supremo
Court of (icorma i coenuul and coordi-
wtle teith the Supreme Court of Uie II. ,V.,
and not inferior and subordinate to that
Court. That ns to llio reserved (lowers, tho
Stato Courtis supreme; that as to tho del-
gated powers, the United States Court is
supreme; that ns to powers both uelegatod
and resorved concurrent imeers both
Courts, in llio languago of Hamilton, nro ,
'eouallv supreme;' nnd that ns a conse
quent, tho Supremo Court of tho United
Slates has no jurisdiction over tho Supremo
Court of Georgia; ami cannot, tlicrclore,
givoitnn order, urmako forita precedent."
Judgo Hcnniug then makes tho broad
niul itnrimr nsaertion. extraordinary ns nro-
Cerdn,irf.-uua Jii.liricl .JtUiUriai.sJvJLCL)
decisions or llio U. a. Supreme Court havo
ix'cn tinctured with partizanihiji. Ho says:
"Hut, say that I am wrong in tiiis opin
ion; still, I deny thnt tho dcciiions of tho
Supremo Court referred to, nro precedents
to gorcrn this Court.
Those decisions were mere jxtrtisan d.
ehions to bo overruled in tho Court which
mado them, ns soon as n majority of tho
members of tho Court should bo of differ
ent politics from tho politics of tho mom
burs who mado tho docitions.
'Jliero are now, and havo been before
now, in theso United Stales, but two parties
with a clearly marked lino of separation
qctweon them, 'ilio party which stands
on tho shlo ol tho delegated powers, nnu
that which stands nn tho sido of tlio reserv
ed powers tho National party and tho
States' Rights party.
Now, the effect of tho decisions of tho
Supremo Court, to which I havo roforrcd,
is to put up tho National party and put
down tho Stato' Kights party. Tlio de
cisions nro therefore, political. Indeed,
thoy discuss tho snmu topics, ntid come to
tho samo results, in all respects, as do tho
speakers in Congress, tlio stump orators
out of Congress, and tho nowspapor wru
tcrs in and out of it."
After reviowing unmercifully tho lives
nnd characters of tho Judges of tlio U. S.
Suprcmo'Court, quoting from their biogra
phies to show that not only Marshal ami
bench, but also Jay, NfolUiPKim iYuftrarth,
wero all activo partisans nud nrdent politi
cians boforo thoy wont uiioti tho bench.
Judgo llcnning says
"Thoy wero tho samo men in thnt tosi
tion that thoy had been before they got
thoro that they maintained nnd nvowed
tho samo principles and possessed tho samo
political nrcdolictions then as in tho political
nreua. That their decisions were partisan
decisions nud thnt all decisions or consti
tutional (mentions must bo more or less par
tisan, and ought not to bind ns precedents,
becnuso thoy nro not mado by tho tribunal
which in llio last resurt is supremo. This
tribunal is tlio peoplo of tho States tho
authors of tho Constitution."
