"AmleiiB Curiae," a legal term, meaning a "friend of tho Court," was tbo subject so ably exploited by Judge C. A. Sohlbrodo. The Judge recited a local Instanco to nhown that the AnileuoH Curiae is sometimes not desirable, especially In a case whor a trio of attorno.vH nttempted to ndvlso Judge Coko re rentfly on it subject on which tbo Judgo waH doubtful, resulting that aftor IiIh honor received I lie advice offered, he wns oven more doubtful thnu at first and was furred to rc tiro to bis chamberH and calm bis confused mind.

"Tho underlying thoughts, princi ples and Incentives aro tbo same In the making of nil constitutions, tho safe-guarding of human rights nro eo-oxlBtnnt with right thinking and as old as tho human race, that Is, tho Intellectual human raco. "A constitution 1ms been defined to bo a system of fundaniental prin ciples upon which a body politic Is formed. It Is nlways an embodiment of tbo Ideas of Its authors of tho res pective rights of tho governors and th'o governed, and Is an expression of the degreo of confidence or lack of confidence tbnt tbo authors have In those who havo entrusted tbem with the duties to bo performed. "Ah a matter of Instinct. Inheri tance and training, at least since ninny years nntedntlng tho Declara tion of Independence, tho people of this country Irtivo believed and still believe that tho ultimate source of political power rests In tbo body poll tic In Its entirety. So wo must Infer that this holler was tho prevalent one of tho delegates sent by the peoplo of tho colonies to form their consti tution.
