The Opportunities And Responsibilites Of American Law Schools, Floyd R. Mechem

Michigan Law Review

With two bodies dealing in general with the subject of legal education, the Section of Legal Education and this Association, meeting annually, and with occasionally a third, the Conference of State Boards of Law Examiners, each endeavoring to present papers and arouse discussion, it is obvious that the number of new questions which anyone may hope to suggest is necessarily, small. Most of the important questions have already been discussed, many of them more than once, and anything which is now presented is likely to smack of the truism or the platitude. The very remarkable increase, however, both in the …

Thomas Mcintyre Cooley, Jerome C. Knowlton

Michigan Law Review

In the early fifties, there were four young men practicing at the bar of the State of Michigan who became so influential during the formative period in the jurisprudence of the state that we cannot name one of them without thinking of the others. James V. Campbell, Isaac P. Christiancy, Thomas M. Cooley arid Benjamin F. Graves came from New York parentage and from New England stock. The three last name received their education in the primary schools and academies of New York. As young men seeking their future they came west and settled in different parts of this state. …

Japanese School Incident At San Francisco From The Point Of View Of International And Constitutional Law, Theodore P. Ion.

Michigan Law Review

The act of the Board of Education of San Francisco in assigning to Japanese pupils separate school buildings, has been the occasion of a diplomatic incident which, although insignificant in itself, may lead to far reaching consequences both in regard to the internal affairs and the external relations of the country. It is neither the first, nor will it probably be the last sign, of the struggle for equality of the yellow with the white man, which may subsequently be emphasized in a more tangible, if not abrupt manner, resulting in a clash between the two races: the one, trying …

Isaac Peckham Christiancy, Joseph B. Moore

Michigan Law Review

Isaac P. Christiancy was born on the 12th of March, 1812, at Johnstown, New York. His life is another of, the many illustrations that great as are the advantages of the possession of wealth, when properly used, and the opportunity of attending the higher institutions of learning, they are not essentials to the attaining of great influence and a position of well deserved eminence. His education was obtained by attending the district schools, supplemented by a short term in the academy at Dow, New York. He was an omnivorous reader of such books, magazines and newspapers as were obtainable by …

Monroe Doctrine Its Status, John F. Simmons

Michigan Law Review

In 1895. President Cleveland in his message to Congress in regard to what has come to be known as the "Venezuela affair" said the Monroe Doctrine "has its place in the code of international law as certainly and as securely as if it were specifically mentioned." To test the accuracy of this statement we must determine as closely as possible what the Monroe Doctrine is and what is the correct meaning of the term "code of international law." Having settled our definitions the issue will be clearly defined and its discussion possibly profitable.

Born in 1877 and troubled from a young age by lung problems,¹⁹ Franklin Henry Bryant (1907) dedicated himself to his education. In 1898, he joined the Seventh Day Adventist Church, where he served as a stenographer for the son of the founders of the Seventh Day Adventists, J. Edson White.

Liability Of Hospitals For The Negligence Of Their Physicians And Nurses, Harry B. Hutchins

Articles

Liability of Hospitals for the Negligence of their Physicians and Nurses.-This question was recently examined by the Supreme Court of Utah in the case of Gitzhoffen v. Sisters of Holy Cross Hospital Association, 88 Pac. Rep. 691 (Jan. 26, 1907), and the opinion filed may well serve as a basis for comment. The hospital association was sued for damages for injuries that plaintiff claimed to have sustained through the negligence of defendant's nurses.
