The Michigan Constitutional Convention, John A. Fairlie
The Michigan Constitutional Convention, John A. Fairlie
Michigan Law Review
A year ago the writer of this article outlined in the Michigan Law Review "Some Suggested Changes in the Constitution of Michigan," in view of the Constitutional Convention that had been called to revise the Constitution in force. Since that time the members of the convention have been elected; and after four months of earnest work, the results of its labors have been presented to the people of Michigan in the proposed revised Constitution, which will be submitted for their approval or disapproval at the general election in November of the present year. It is proposed in this article to …

May Congress Levy Money Exactions, Designated "Taxes," Solely For The Purpose Of Destruction?, John Barker Waite
May Congress Levy Money Exactions, Designated "Taxes," Solely For The Purpose Of Destruction?, John Barker Waite
Michigan Law Review
The questions of taxation have furnished a cause of warfare, armed or wordy, since the meaning of government has been known. The possibility of our Constitution was due, superficially, to the imposition of a tax; its adoption, in great measure, to the absence of a tax, to the lack of a taxing power in the Confederation. Since the adoption of the Constitution with its grant of a taxing power, much of our legislative disagreement has centered on the interpretation of that grant. The case of McCray v. United States, opens up a comparatively untrammeled field of dispute. The basis of …

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 …
Historical Lights From Judicial Decisions, Edward Cahill
Historical Lights From Judicial Decisions, Edward Cahill
Michigan Law Review
The history of a nation is to be looked for in a great variety of places. Its traditions, its public and private records, its religious and social orders, its literature and its laws, each yield copious results to the researches of the historian. The social, religious and economic conditions of a nation at any period of its history, the state of the· domestic relations, the rights of property and of succession, the growth of personal liberty, all these and many more find their accurate expression sooner or later, in the written or unwritten laws of the land. And the movement …
Are Too Many Executive Officers Elective?, Bradley M. Thompson
Are Too Many Executive Officers Elective?, Bradley M. Thompson
Articles
We propose very briefly to call attention, to so much of the present constitution of Michigan as has to do with the executive department, and to consider the methods which the people have adopted for selecting those public servants whose official duty it is to enforce the law, to maintain public order and protect private rights.
Labor Organizations In Legislation, Jerome C. Knowlton
Labor Organizations In Legislation, Jerome C. Knowlton
Articles
During the first months of the current year, the Supreme Court of the United States handed down three decisions on important questions in labor legislation.1 The Employers' Liability Act was declared unconstitutional, but on grounds that may be avoided by subsequent legislation; the boycott was decided to be an unlawful conspiracy against interstate commerce, and in violation of the Anti-Trust Act and the congressional enactment providing criminal punishment for the discharge of an employee because of his membership in a labor organization was also held unconstitutional. These decisions have been unjustly spoken of by some, as unreasonably severe on labor …
The Constitution Of Oklahoma, John A. Fairlie
The Constitution Of Oklahoma, John A. Fairlie
Michigan Law Review
The constitution of the latest state to be admitted to the Federal Union contains many interesting features, some significant of recent tendencies in state government, and others distinctly novel, which suggest queries as to the probable trend of future development. Public attention has already been attracted to some of the most striking provisions; and a more careful analysis of the constitution as a whole should be of value to those concerned in the problems of American government. At the outset, one familiar with the constitution of the older states will be struck by the length of the Oklahoma document. It …

A Written Constitution In Some Of Its Historical Aspects, Andrew C. Mclaughlin
A Written Constitution In Some Of Its Historical Aspects, Andrew C. Mclaughlin
Michigan Law Review
That an institution of government, like an institution or practice of society, is a growth and not a creation is now an accepted proposition. No one seeks to argue for it; no one endeavors to deny it. The introduction of this idea into our political thinking strongly influenced our methods and our ideas. In no field of study has the evolutionary idea shown itself more strongly than among workers in history and political science. And yet occasionally one is surprised by seeing how recently this idea has manifested itself in the examination of some historical problems. Until a short time …

The Commerce Clause Of The Federal Constitution And Two Recent Cases Dealing With It, S. S. Gregory
The Commerce Clause Of The Federal Constitution And Two Recent Cases Dealing With It, S. S. Gregory
Michigan Law Review
In the historic case of M'Culloch v. Maryland, CHIEF Justice Marshall said, referring to the Federal Government: "This government is acknowledged by all to be one of enumerated powers. The principle that it can exercise only the powers granted to it, would seem too apparent to have required to be enforced by all those arguments which its enlightened friends, while it was depending before the people, found it necessary to urge. That principle is now universally admitted, but the question respecting the extent of the powers actually granted is perpetually arising and will probably continue to arise as long as …
Japanese School Incident At San Francisco From The Point Of View Of International And Constitutional Law, Theodore P. Ion.
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 …

The American Bar Association's Meeting At Portland, Henry M. Bates
Articles
The meeting of the American Bar Association for 1907 was a notable one, both in respect of the attendance and in the importance of many of the matters discussed. Not only was the attendance unusually large, but the presence of many distinguished men from abroad who were delegates to the meetings of the International Law Association, held during the same week, added distinction to the gatherings. The meetings reflected significantly the discussion throughout the country upon the great legal and political questions which the changing conditions in the commercial and industrial world have brought so prominently before the nation during …
Supreme Court And Unconstitutional Acts Of Congress, Edwin S. Corwin
Supreme Court And Unconstitutional Acts Of Congress, Edwin S. Corwin
Michigan Law Review
The power of the Supreme Court of the United States to supervise Congressional legislation has been so generally assumed in the recent discussions, both in and out of Congress, of the proposed Rate Bill, and is indeed so apparently settled today that it becomes of interest to inquire into the intention of the Constitutional Fathers in this matter. Did the Fathers intend that the federal judiciary should have the right to declare an act of Congress of no effect because transgressing constitutional limits? It does not detract from the interest of this question that two recent authorities who attempt to …
