Direct Primary Legislation In Michigan, Arthur C. Millspaugh Nov 1916

Direct Primary Legislation In Michigan, Arthur C. Millspaugh

Michigan Law Review

The first local direct nomination law in Michigan was passed ir 1901; the first general law in 1905. The public opinion, however, which looked to the abolition of the convention system of nomination, rather than to its legal regulation, had its inception as early as 1894. The unusually objectionable primaries of that year led to a pronounced but unorganized agitation for reform, in the course of which a few of the most radical proposed to abolish absolutely all conventions.1 The legislature of 1895 contented itself, however, with attempting the regulation of primaries and conventions, leaving most of the nominating machinery …

Michigan Law Review

Estates in Fee Tail - Quite generally estates in fee tail under the STATUTE DE DONIS were recognized by the states as a part of the common law. Statutory provisions in the way of modification and abolishment of such estates, however, are very common. The nature and scope of the statutory provisions have varied. See the states classified according to the character of the legislation in BREWSTER, CONVEYANCING, § § 142, 143.


Liability Of The Carrier To Passengers For Injuries By Its Servants, Renville Wheat Jun 1916

Liability Of The Carrier To Passengers For Injuries By Its Servants, Renville Wheat

Michigan Law Review

With the unprecedented development of the means' of transportation in the early nineteenth century, and the increased use of the corporate form of ownership and control of these means, the inadequacy of the familiar rule of law, respondeat superior, as a protection to the travelling public from the torts of the carrier's servants was recognized. The majority of courts applied with the utmost rigor a test which determined the master's liability by considering whether the act complained of was within the scope of the servant's authority. Some few courts said that the liability depended rather upon whether the act was …

Inquiry Concerning Justice, Floyd R. Mechem

Michigan Law Review

Justice, said Daniel Webster, "is the greatest interest of man on earth." Alexander Hamilton, in the Federalist, declared "Justice is the end of government. It is the end of civil society. It has ever been, and ever will be, pursued until it be obtained, or until liberty be lost in the pursuit."

Michigan Law Review

Attempt, Assault, and Assault with Intent - The case of State v. Lewis, decided in October, 1915, by the Supreme Court of Iowa, has an interesting bearing upon the law of assault and of criminal attempts. Two men, Tropp and Cox, observed a third, Dunlevy, asleep on a cot with a pocketbook under his pillow. Tropp armed himself with a leather sap and a loaded revolver and moved quietly to the head of the cot, when Dunlevy, feeling the presence of some one in the room, sprang to his feet. Tropp fled from the room with Dunlevy after him, but …
