Samuel Alschuler Suggests Court Approval Before Laws Become Effective. 7 PROMINENT MEN IN PROGRAM AT BAR BANQUET t 5 WJ Members of the Rock Island County Bar association and their guests, num bering In all over 100, had the unusual pleasure of listening last evening to a learned discussion by men of high rank In an honored profession, of methods and practice .. in the . administration of law and justice. j The occasion was the annual banquet j of the bar association held at the ban quet hall of th.e New Harper. Hon. Samuel Alschuler of Aurora, for mer democratic nomineer for governor, mildly criticised Judicial procedure for failing to obey a section of the state constitution which seems to require courts to take the initiative in point ing out constitutional defects in acts of the legislature. This provision, he asserted, i3 a dead letter and as a re sult an act is often not found uncon stitutional till after it has been in ef fect foryearsand has correspondingly influenced human action one way or another. Mr. Alschuler suggested as V H " TS ;V. 2- i a . - i-s ,"' v vv 7" . J. - 4 f.

Cooke of Aledo, member of the state supreme court. described the methods followed by that body and explained that its members perform their duty to the best of their ability and under a system that is a vast imDrovement upon methods in vogue a few years ago. Wu Principal Speaker. Mr. Alschuler had prepared a set BDeech. he being the principal orator of the evening, Speaker E. D. Shttrtleff of the lower house of the legislature was unable to be present because of the necessity of being at Springfield when the ses sions of the house were resumed this morning, and he sent his regrets. Jus tice Cooke was not on the original program and spoke extemporaneously, but delivered an address that was highly instructive. W. R. Moore of Moline, president of the Rock Island County Bar association, was toast master, performing the functions in a graceful and happy manner. Rev. R.S. Haney of Moline delivered an Invocation before the banquet. The program following was opened with a response to the toast "Circumstantial Evidence," by W. J. Graham of Aledo. Mr. Graham asserted that while acting as prosecuting attorney of Mercer county he had marveled often upon the difficulty of convicting on circum stantial evidence. He used to think something wrong with Juries, they were so loth to find a defendant guilty upon this alone. Later, however, he has come to see why it is that men hesitate to find their fellows guilty of crime when there still exists a rea sonable doubt. The speaker took a rap at legislatures for their careless ness in passing laws for lawyers and courts to puzzle over and made com plimentary allusion to a certain wielder of the big stick. Subject, "ITnconstitutlonal Reflcctlona." Mr. Alschuler was the next speaker, his subject being "Some Unconstitu tional Reflections," and he said, in part: "Our manner and practice of deal ing with questions of statutory trans gressions of the constitution give rise to much embarrassment and many re sulting hardships. Statutes are pass ed by the legislature, dealing with the most serious of human affairs life, liberty, domestic relations, reputation, property and for a time, perhaps for many years, the citizens conform to the legislation. Trials are had, men are condemned or acquitted, liberty is withheld or restored, property rights are settled and adjusted, when, lo! and behold, someone assumes to dis cover that the legislature in some re spect transgressed the constitution, and in a given case, involving the par ticular matter there at stake, the court declares the statute to be un constitutional, and straightway there is consternation abroad in the land. Courts are ousted of jurisdiction, rights are unsettled, liberty and even life may be found to have been un lawfully restrained or taken, or other disastrous consequences ensue. And what we have seen in the past may be but an earnest of more serious dis turbances yet to come. Donbt Created. "A recent pronouncement by our own supreme court holding unconsti tutional a statute passed 11 years ago in respect to the parole of prisoners, to which statute our penal system has conformed itself during all these years has thrown things into much confusion, and has made lawyers, judges and officials doubtful of the constitutionality of many other stat utes, upon which depend In large measure the proper administration of Justice and the orderly conduct of our v social system. f v "If n some manner the unconstitu tionality of the statute could have been discovered and authoritatively pronounced immediately after its en actment, the resulting public embar- HON. .SAMUEL. ALSCHULER, Who Delivered Learned Address on "Un constitutional Reflections." rassment and alarm would have been minimized, if. Indeed, any disturb-. ance at all would have followed. "Questions of the constitutionality of statutes are always grave. They are often such as perplex the best of lawyers, and frequently result in dis agreement and - difference o opinion among them, as well as in the very courts - charged with the solution of such problems. "Legislatures are not selected with a view to the legal profundity of their members, and even if they were, we might expect the same differences of opinion which so frequently manifest themselves even in courts of the very highest learning and authority. -Wisdom Would Not Avail. "But, if the legislature were a body of wondrous wise Solomons, many of its enactments would be wrecked upon constitutional rocks Just the same. For, do not wise circuit courts have their opinions overturned by wise ap pellate courts, the last in turn to be again overturned by a wise supreme court, and then perhaps the latter be disagreed with by coordinate supreme courts, or even reversed by the su preme court of the nation ? Who shall decide when doctors disagree? With all this .doubt and uncertainty whica proclaims the law as being far from-f an exact sclence if, indeed, it be any science at all the wonder is that there is yielded to it even that degree of faith, loyalty and allegiance which is popularly manifested. "It is prescribed in section 31, arti cle 6, of our state constitution, that inferior judges of the state shall, on or before June 1st of each year, report in writing to the judges of the su preme court such defects and omis sions in the laws as their experience may suggest, and that the Judges of the supreme court shall, on or before Jan. 1st of each year, report in writing to the governor such defects and omis sions in the laws as they may find to exist, together with appropriate forms of bill3 to cure such defects and omis sions. Constitutions are ordinarily re garded by the courts with great rev erence, "and it is not lightly to be presumed that the judicial reverence for the constitution will exlude section 31, article 6, thereof. Honored la the Breaeh. To what extent the provision has been complied with Jby the inferior judges I do not know, nor for that mat ter how far it has been observed by the supreme judges. It is the gen eral opinion that the section has been more honored in the breach than in the observance. But this may depend upon a construction of the article itself. If the judges are to report only such defects as they find to exist, it may be concluded that failing to report at all, they impliedly find the non existence of defects, and. of course. no occasion has then arisen for making any report, and hence there has been no constitutional non-observance. "I confess myself quite unable to understand the full scope and mean ing of the constitutional provision re ferred to. Surely it cannot "thereby be meant that the supreme Judges should annually lay before the gover nor such suggestions, "with forms of bills to carry them out, as might be calculated to determine or influence the policy of the legislative depart ment, which is not to b tolerated, un less indeed the constitution so pre scribes. If the constitution imposes upon the judicial department certain duties which might be classed as ex ecutive or legislative, it is for the Ju dicial department to obey the consti tution, regardless of any question of expediency, propriety or departmental Invasion. The departments exist for the people, not the people for the de partments. The people through their constitution command it is for the departments to comply. r "While it is not to be presmued that under the guise of pointing out ''de fects and omission' the supreme judges are expected to recommend policies or to Initiate legislative plans and changes, yet it is not reasonable to conclude that the constitutional ex pression, 'defects and omissions in the laws,' means nothing at all.

SECOND BIDS ALSO TOD HIGH Difficulty in Getting Proposals for Postoffice Within Avail able Appropriation. $71,000 FOR IMPROVEMENT Prospect that Department Will Have to Make a Third Trial for the Work. The second set of bids which was received at Washington by Superin tending Architect J. Knox Taylor for the erection of the proposed extension to the postoffice building in Rock Isl and have been opened. The appropria tion received by the local office was $80,000, $5,000 of which was 'expended for additional ground. At least $4, 000 more will go to the architect and superintendent, leaving but $71,000 for the building proper. The bids which were just opened were all too high.

"Which Is more conducive to the general good, that the judges keep to themselves their knowledge of defects until such time as the question may be raised in a law suit before them, which may or may not ever occur, or that they promptly report the defect, with suggestions for remedying the same? "The evils attendant upon the up setting of Important statutes which have for j-ears been accepted as the law, is too well recognized to require more than mere suggestion' to Jp? well understood, and it seems axiomatic that the public good requires the ear liest possible ascertainment and set tlement of questions concerning the constitutionality of statutes. The cer tainty of the law approximates quite nearly in importance its quality. Would Be Mere Opinion. "It is true, as pointed out in the answers of the judges, that any com munication to the governor pursuant to the constitutional provision is not a Judicial determination of the court, but is an expression of opinion ef the individuals who are the judges of the court, and may not affect the statute furttfer than that the legislature might thereafter see fit to cure the indicated defect. "But this is about the same force which attaches to a decision of the question as it arises in a particular case. vA determination of the consti tutionality of the statute as reached in that case does not modify or repeal the statute. It becomes inoperative only because it may be reasonably concluded that it is not enforcible In any case. Any other means whereby it may be reasonably concluded that the courts will not enforce the statute would be equally effective. "There should exist some instru mentality whereby it. may be prompt ly and authoritatively ascertained and determined in the first instance whether or not a statute violates the constitution. Would Amend Constitution. , "Clearly the present constitutional provision is not effective to that end, and I believe the constitution should in that respect be amended; that a tribunal should be constituted, or ex isting tribunal Invested, with power and duty to pass upon the constitu tionality of all statutes before they become effective. Such tribunal would preferably be the supreme court, HON. WILLIAM JACKSON, " For DO Tears Practitioner at Bar, Who Talked on Witnesses. which under the recent statute con eerning appeals and writs of error will soon find itself relieved of much of the labor with which it has hereto fore been overburdened. "I would not make of our supreme Judicial branch a moot court or a question box, requiring it to answer inquiries as to the validity of all sorts of legislation, that may be proposed or contemplated or suggested; butwhere the question of validity is all Btand in the way of a statutory enactment, and its full force and effect as a part of the law of the land, to which all must yield obedience, I submit that such question ought to be definitely and authoritatively determined before the enactment is accorded the author ity and force of law." Nestor of Bar Heard. Hon. William Jackson, Introduced by the toastmaster as the "Nestor of the Rock Island county bar," came next. His subject was "Examination of Witnesses." He acknowledged the fact that next August it will have been 60 years since he began the practice of law In this county, and then pro ceeded to give his hearers the benefit of some of the wisdom that has come to him in his long experience. He showed that there is a natural tenden cy of lawyers to divide into two gen eral classes, those who appear in court and those who do not. The young r 1 ,SJ . i lawyer usually begins as a trial lawyer and the supreme test Is his first case In court. It is a great help to have a sympathetic Judge on the bench for such an ordeal, he said. It is more important still that the young lawyer know his case. As to rules for the examination of witnesses where are really none. Men differ so that what would be an effective method in one case would fall In another. A lawyer must be a judge of human nature, particularly if he is examining, a woman. Circumstances must show where to follow and what pitfalls to avoid. The only rule to follow is that which grows with the case. Hon. James H. Andrews ofKewanee was called upon to discuss "Lawyers as Lawmakers." he aving been a mem ber of the legislature before" taking up the practice of law. He discussed the reasons why the public prefers men who are not lawyers to make their laws for them, and this notwith standing that knowledge of law is absolutely, necessary to give a legis lator an -insight into the true signifi cance of many of the matters upon which he is called to vote. The rea son, Mr. Andrews said, that lawyers are in ill favor as lawmakers, is that they too often in their private practice become attached to private Interests and when they attempt to serve in law making bodies they are inclined to heed the voice of the special interest instead of that of the public. Law making, after all, the speaker con cluded, is a matter of conscience, rather than of ability. Orl Hon Not Always Informed. Justice Cooke was called upon in formally and began a reference to the supreme court by saying he realized that that body is often criticised and with more or less reason, but adding that often the critics do nof fully un derstand what they are talking about. He therefore proposed to make a few points clear so that In future his hearers could criticise more intelli gently. The volume of business done by, the supreme court is big, amounting ""to about 600 cases an nually. In spite of the charge often iuadp that the court is slow, he said he found when he took his seat at the October term last year that opin ions had been written in all but 11 of the case9 pending and these would have been prepared without doubt, had it not been for the death of Jus tice Guy4 C. Scott. Later, it is true, cases accumulate, but the long sum mer vacation, as a rule, sees the docket cleared, at least to the extern of preparing the opinions that must be passed upon by the court as a whole before accepted as final. Methods Changed for Better. Recently methods in vogue in the court have been changed and the members think they have the best system that can be devised under the existing order of things. The speak er then took up the daily routine of work while court is in session, show ing how arguments are heard, ques tions raised, discussed and assign ments finally made to write opin ions. These assignments are given in rotation so that there is no favor itism. In passing upon opinions when they pra presented it is the rule for the Junior member to vote first, thereby freeing him from the influence of older members. A member is given the records, beliefs and arguments in all cases assigned to him, while the other fv. ft. nuunii, President Rock Island County Bar Association. DESERTED FAMILY George Fisher of Galesburg Comes to This City With' Young GirL THOUGHT HE WAS SINGLE Affinity Crushed at Revelation Made When Paramour Was Arrested by Ijocal Police. George Fisher of Galesburg wa ar rested here last night and today he was taken back to his home to answer to a charge of abandonment. The man has been married for many years and Is the father of six children. He became infatuated with a young girl whom he deceived Into thinking he was a single man. The young girl trusted him and together they came to Rock Island where they had lived together for several days. Fisher made the girl think he intended to marry her. Galeaburs; Police Trace Illra. The Galesburg police notified the local force to arrest Fisher if he could be found and as soon as he was in custody an officer was sent down to take him back. The name of the girl who was with him was not made pub lic by the police as she comes from a good family in Galesburg. She was crushed when she learned that her affinity was a married man and was willing to return to her home. Will Pronerate Deserter. Fisher will be prosecuted by his wife on the charge of abandonment and it is likely that a more serious charge will be preferred against him by the family of his "affinity." members have copies. When the opinloa is prepared it is sent to the state printer, who prepares seven copies, and they are mailed at once to the other members. Thus all are given every facility to study all the cases before the court in advance of their being decided. The Justice said in his own cases he had found often that the other members were as fully informed as he upon cases that had been assigned to him and to which he had devoted much study. 3Vo One-Maii Court. The supreme court, the speaker said, has been criticised as a one man court and its decisions as one man decisions.- This, he declared, is far from true. He had found that all members conscientiously Inform ed themselves upon every question that they are called upon to decide. The ideal method, of course, would be to decide all cases in conference, but owing to their number this is impossible. But three or four cases cr uld be disposed of in a day by this method. This would leve only from 40 to 60 days a year for the writing of half or more as many opinions. What the supreme court needs, Jus tice Cooke contended, is more time that it may give more careful con sideration to the matter before it. To this end he thought the present system is working admirably, and ne argued for the retention of the new certiorari act. which he considers s distinct advance in the same direc tion. Davenport Mayor Last. " The last speaker was Mayor G. W. Scott tf Davenport, whose subject was "Good Fellowship Between the lowi and Illinois Bars." He was introduced as the "mayor of spotless town.' and in opening reminded his bearers that the last car had already left for Davenport. "And you know what that means,'' he dolefully add ed. Mayor Scott declared he believ ed that the common law practice of Illinois develops broader and' more brilliant men than the code system in Iowa does. He cited examples in which Reck Island county attorneys had come to Davenport and won hard cases in support of his statement. He concluded by saying he knew Rock Islanders go to bed before Daven porters do and that he would not therefore longer keep his hearers from their repose, especially In view of the fact that it was up to him to walk home.

Galesburg papers hear that the peo ple of Muscatine are desirous of inter esting the Rock Island Southern in the building of an interurban from Aledo to the Iowa town through the richest part of the lower end of Rock Island county. They believe that the line could be made to pay, inasmuch as there is no rail connection of any kind between the places mentioned. Rock Island Southern officials are non committal on the subject, but say that if the survey shows the proposition to be a paying one they are for it.
