Is A Provision For The Initiative And Referendum Inconsistent With The Constitution Of The United States?, W. A. Coutts
Is A Provision For The Initiative And Referendum Inconsistent With The Constitution Of The United States?, W. A. Coutts
Michigan Law Review
We are told today that the Constitution of the United States forbids the adoption of the Initiative and the Referendum, as these involve such purely democratic principles as to be inconsistent with the republican form of government guaranteed by the fourth section of the fourth article of the Federal Constitution. The special interests that are opposed to the Initiative tell us that we must find some other cure for the evils at which it aims; that the Initiative is a purely democratic principle and, as such, it is forbidden by the fourth section of the fourth article of the Federal …
Are Too Many Executive Officers Elective?, Bradley M. Thompson
Are Too Many Executive Officers Elective?, Bradley M. Thompson
Michigan Law Review
Michigan manage and conduct state affairs. No one would ship a dead dog over that line without having taken the precaution to skin the animal and save his hide. Listen to the conclusion of the whole matter. Give the people an opportunity to govern the state. Amend the constitution and provide for the election of just two state executive officers, a governor and a lieutenant governor. Give the governor power to appoint by and with the advice and consent of the senate, the other state officers now elected, with power to remove at will such officers to constitute his counsel …

Constitutional Limitations On Primary Election Legislation, Floyd R. Mechem
Constitutional Limitations On Primary Election Legislation, Floyd R. Mechem
Michigan Law Review
In determining what aspect of the general question I should discuss in the brief time available, it seemed to me desirable that I should confine my attention to the constitutional aspect of the matter, leaving the discussion of the practical workings of the various laws actually enacted to those who have had more opportunity to observe them. The constitutional side of the matter has already been very ably discussed by Professor Tuttle in MICHIGAN LAW REVIEW and I do not hope to add materially to what is there said, though certain of the questions may be approached in a somewhat …

Limitations Upon The Power Of The Legislature To Control Political Parties And Their Primaries, Alonzo H. Tuttle
Limitations Upon The Power Of The Legislature To Control Political Parties And Their Primaries, Alonzo H. Tuttle
Michigan Law Review
The convention system of nominating candidates for public office is, in a great degree, peculiar to the United States. England has in recent years borrowed in part our caucus, but as late as 1893, a writer in the American Law Regisieri says: "A nomination is made in the British dominions by a paper filed by one person and one or a very few seconders." Nor have we always had the convention system here. The first national nominating convention was held in Baltimore, by the anti- Masonic party, on September 26, 1831.
