The Recall And The Political Responsibility Of Judges, W. F. Dodd Dec 1911

The Recall And The Political Responsibility Of Judges, W. F. Dodd

Michigan Law Review

The movement for the recall of State officers is one which has became important only within the past three or four years. The first application of the recall as a modem institution in the United States appears to have been in Los Angeles in 19o3, where the institution was adopted in the amendment of the charter framed by that city. From Los Angeles the recall as applicable only to municipal officers spread to other California cities, and has now been rather widely adopted in other States. The first State constitutional amendment with respect to the recall, that of California in …


The Use And The Abuse Of The Commerce Clause, Fred'k H. Cooke Dec 1911

The Use And The Abuse Of The Commerce Clause, Fred'k H. Cooke

Michigan Law Review

The visible universe, from the giant constellation down to the infinitesimal corpuscle, is in a condition of eternal movement, or, we may say, a condition of eternal transportation. Indeed, there seems to be no phenomenon more universal than this transportation. But we are to here consider it merely as a phenomenon of life, in particular, of human life. In common with other higher animals, man possesses organs that characterize him as a being eminently fitted for transportation; his arms; his legs; even his vocal organs, fitted for transportation (or transmission) of the intangible, that is, of intelligence communicated from one …


The Mosaic Law, Clarence A. Lightner Dec 1911

The Mosaic Law, Clarence A. Lightner

Michigan Law Review

In recent years much has been learned of the civilization, which developed in early times in Mesopotamia. In Babylon, laws appropriate to a vast and wealthy agricultural nation, which was engaged, also, largely in commerce, had been developed many centuries before the authentic history of other peoples begins. This civilization was Semitic. A great light, where formerly but dim reflections had been seen, was thrown upon this jurisprudence by the discovery, in 1901, of the codification of the laws of Babylonia, which was promulgated by King Hammurabi about 2350 B. C. Migration from Babylonia occurred from time to time, and …

The Doctrine Of Survivorship And The Definition Of A Vested Remainder, Henry W. Webber Nov 1911

The Doctrine Of Survivorship And The Definition Of A Vested Remainder, Henry W. Webber

Michigan Law Review

Here probably is not a more cited case in the law of survivorships than the leading case of Moore v. Lyons, which, in 1840, firmly laid down the rule of construction that words of survivorship prima facie refer to death in the lifetime of the testator, rather than to death in the lifetime of the life-tenant. In a devise, therefore, to one for life, and from and after his death to two others (naming them), or to the survivor of them, the remainderman takes a vested interest at the death of the testator even though one of them predeceased the …

Recent Interpretation Of The Sherman Act, George W. Wichersham Nov 1911

Recent Interpretation Of The Sherman Act, George W. Wichersham

Michigan Law Review

The only legitimate end and object of all government is the greatest good of the greatest number of the people. The means by which this end is attained vary in accordance with the experience and the temperament of the people. Government is necessarily more or less of an experiment at all times, but as men have been making similar experiments ever since the dawn of recorded history, the waste of repeating unsuccessful experiments of the past may be avoided by studying the records of the results of earlier effort; and, other things being equal, all thoughtful persons will agree, that …

The Law In Its Relation To Morals And Religion, Edwin C. Goddard Jul 1911

The Law In Its Relation To Morals And Religion, Edwin C. Goddard

Articles

"Man is a religious being... Man has never lived to himself alone. His natural state has ever been a social one, in which development and enjoyment became possible only by mutual inter-dependence and social intimacy. Government is not an invention, not a necessary evil to which men submit. On the contrary... it has been man's natural instrument for controlling and developing the social estate so essential to his very existence ... [a]nd universally this government has been more or less closely related to religious institutions."
