{ NOTABLE DECISIONS OF THE £
t LATE CHIEF JUSTICE. *
The most notable decisions of (
Chief Justice Fuller were: (
Income tax act, 1895, declared un- <
constitutional. 1
Employers' liability act, declared 1
unconstitutional. \
Sustaining imperialism. Philip- ,
pines declared to be on same basis <
as Porto Rico and upholding the <
Foraker Porto Rico 15 per cent tar- '
iff act. [
Sustaining the United States cir- ,
cult court of appeals in overruling <
Judge Landis* action in fining the <
Standard Oil company $29,240,000. 1
Danbury hat case, holding boy- '
cotting illegal.
E. C. Knight case, to dissolve
sugar trust. Held that the Sher-
man act trust law did not apply.
"Sustaining the anti-anarchist law
in the case of John Turner.
In the Northern Securities case,
by which the corporation was dis-
solved by a 5 to 4 decision, Chief
Justice Fuller's opinion was against
the government.
In the decision declaring the eight
hour law of the state of Kansas to
be constitutional Chief Justice Ful-
ler dissented.
Lawyers may differ as to the pro-
foundness of the legal knowledge of
the late chief justice of the United
States supreme court, Melville W.
Fuller, and the ability displayed in his
decisions. Lawyers always reserve
the right to criticise according to
whether the decisions are for or
against them, but they all agree that
the chief justice graced the position he
occupied and that the august character
of the court has been augmented rath-
er than diminished since he began to
preside over its sittings.
To Justice Fuller fell the honor of
third rank for length of service as
presiding justice in the highest tribu-
nal of the American government. For
twenty-two years he was chief justice
of the supreme court of the United
States, but Chief Justice Marshall pre-
sided over the court for thirty-four
years and Chief Justice Taney for
twenty-eight years. With the future
rests the determination of his rank
among the e"igh"t~clilef justices'of his-
tory for ability and accomplishments.
Before Grover Cleveland sent his
name to the senate on April 30, 1S88,
for confirmation as chief justice he
was practically unknown except in the
state of his adoption and to members
of the legal profession.
Senate Fights Confirmation.
The nomination of Mr. Fuller, then
fifty-five years of age, was followed
by a memorable contest In the senate
The judiciary committee, with its Re-
publican majority, to which the nomi-
nation was sent April 30, held up the
appointment until July 20. Then the
committee reported it to the senate
"without recommendation." For three
hours that body debated in executive
session whether to confirm or reject
the nomination. Finally, by a vote
of 41 to 20. his nomination was con-
firmed.
Since that day the entire court as it
then existed has passed away, with the
single exception of Justice Harlan. Of
those prominent in the fight over the
confirmation only Senator Cullom re-
mains, and President Cleveland, who
thus honored the Illinois lawyer, has
likewise gone to his grave.
In private life Mr. Fuller was demo-
cratic in his habits, and he lived sim-
ply at his house in F street, Wash-
ington. However, he had a great opin-
ion of the dignity of his office as
the head of that co-ordinate branch
of the federal government which is
mentioned second in the constitution.
He therefore claimed when he first
went to Washington precedence at all
official functions immediately after the
president and vice president. This
raised serious questions with the rep-
resentatives of foreign powers, and
consequently he avoided whenever pos-
sible appearance at any occasion at
which a diplomat was expected.
Checked Roosevelt Spelling.
Mr. Fuller was credited with being
the first man to put a check on the
introduction of President Roosevelt's
orders of simplified spelling into offi-
cial documents. He picked up a brief
in which an opinion of the late Justice
Bradley was quoted with the word
"through" spelled as "thru."
"Do I understand this purports to be
a literal quotation from Mr. Justice
Bradley?" asked the chief justice with
quiet sarcasm, and from that day
forth simplified spelling was dropped
in supreme court documents.
On one occasion Justice Fuller stood
at the desk in the Auditorium hotel,
Chicago. He was interested in the
tactics of the colored help. The cooks
and waiters were executing drills not
unlike those of a minstrel troupe upon
the stage.
"They're going on a strike," said an
acquaintance of ths justice.
"Weil, well, well," muttered the chief
expounder of law.

"The chambermaids have gone out,
too," added the excited acquaintance.
"Well, well, well," again muttered
the chief justice.
"Well, what? What do you think of
this outrage?" asked the companion
with a considerable show of indigna-
tion.
The justice transferred his weight to
the other foot, surveyed the crowd
calmly and said, "Apparently these
unions are determined that justice
shall not sleep."
Although small of stature—not more
than five feet seven inches—his wealth
of silvery hair and classic features
made him a commanding figure wher-
ever he appeared. Probably Mark
Twain resembled the chief justice in
physical appearance more than any
other man of prominence in recent
years. Frequently the humorist was
mistaken for the jurist. One day a
young lady accosted Mark Twain on
the street and, with an apology that
she had never seen the chief justice
before, asked for his autograph. The
author wrote:
It Is delicious to be full,
But it is heavenly to be Fuller.
I am cordially yours,
MELVILLE W. FULLER.
He was the first supreme court jus-
tice to wear a mustache.
Known as First Nighter.
Chief Justice Fuller was noted as an
unconventional man, easily approach-
ed and one who constantly displayed
great personal kindness. He was ex-
tremely fond of the theater aDd was an
inveterate first nighter.
The late chief justice was a student
of literature and at Bowdoin college
is said to have written many verses.
His one authentic poem was a memo-
rial on General Grant, delivered at a
Grant memorial meeting in Chicago in
1885, one verse of which indicates its
general character:
Not In his battles won,
Though long: the well fought fields may
keep their names,
But in the wide world's sense of duty
done.
The gallant soldier finds the need of
fame,
His life no struggle for ambition's prize,
Simply the duty done that next him lies.
Now and then he lapsed into poetical
touches in his opinions from the bench.
One of the best illustrations of this
was the opinion handed down in the
case of Hammond versus Hopkins. He
concluded his opinion by saying:
"In all cases where actual fraud is
not made out, but the imputation
rests upon conjecture, where the seal
of death has closed the lips of those
whose character is involved and lapse
of time has impaired the recollection of
transactions and obscured their details,
the welfare of society demands the
rigid enforcement of the rule of dili-
gence. The hourglass must supply
the ravages of the scythe, and those
who have slept upon their rights must
be remitted to the repose from which
they should not have been aroused."
"Tho Court Remains."
His death recalls his own words on
such events expressed at the centenary
of the court twenty years ago.
"Judges will be appointed," he said,
"and will pass. One generation rapidly
succeeds another. But, whoever comes
and whoever goes, the court remains,
keeping alive, through many centuries
we shall not see, the light that burns
with a constant radiance upon the
high altar of American constitutional
JtistTce."
No chief justice of the United States
has ever resigned. Chief Justice Mar-
shall died at the age of eighty-one,
Chi6f Justice Taney at eighty-four
and Chief Justice Waite at seventy-
eight. One of the greatest opinions de-
livered by Chief Justice Taney was
Written when he was eighty-three
years old.
John Jay, the first chief justice, serv-
ed six years, and there sat with him
during that period eight associate jus-
tices. When John Rutledge of South
Carolina, an associate justice, who had
resigned, was nominated chief justice
the senate rejected the nomination,
and fnr six years the court was with-
How to Cure Eczema, Pimples
and Dandruff.
We desire to say that when we took
the agency for Zemo, we were con-
vinced that it was a valuable remedy
for Eczema, pimples and dandruff.
Yet, we must frankly admit that Zemo
has far exceeded our expectations as
a treatment for skin diseases. We
are pleased to state that we shall con-
tinue the agency as Zemo has given
splendid results wherever recommend
ed. Our customers like Zemo too,
because it is a clean vegetable liquid
for external use.
ZEMO effects its cures by drawing
to the surface of the skin and destroy-
ing the germ life that causes the dis-
ease, leaving the skfh clear and
healthy. It does not soil the clothing
or linen and can be used freely on in-
fants.
With every purchase, we give a
booklet on skin diseases explaining in
out a chief justice, the senior judge
presiding. John Marshall's accession
came in 1801, and his service lasted un-
til 1835, and in the thirty-four years
there served with him fifteen associate
justices. His successor, Roger B. Ta-
ney, served from 1836 to 1864, and sit-
ting with him in that time were eight-
een associate justices. Salmon P. Chase
of Ohio, who succeeded Taney as chief
justice, served nine years, and ten as-
sociate justices sat with him from
time to time. Next came Morrison ,R.
Waite of Ohio, serving from 1874 until
1888, having to sit with him ten asso-
ciate justices.
Sat With Noted Men.
Since 1888, when Chief Justice Ful-
ler qualified and took his seat, nineteen
associate justices have sat with him.
Among them was Justice Samuel F.
Miller of Iowa, who had served with
Chief Justice Taney and retired aft-
er fifteen years. Others who have
served with Chief Justice Fuller were
David Davis of Illinois, Stephen J.
Field of California, Joseph P. Bradley
of New Jersey, appointed by President
Grant; Stanley Matthews of Ohio, ap-
pointed by President Garfield; Horace
Gray of Massachusetts and Samuel
Blatchford of New York, appointed by
President Arthur; L. Q. C. Lamar of
Mississippi and Howell E. Jackson of
Tennessee, appointed by President
Cleveland; Henry B. Brown of Michi-
gan and George Shiras of Pennsylva-
nia, appointed by President Harrison,
and the members of the present court;
John Marshall Harlan of Kentucky,
appointed thirty-one years ago by
President Hayes; David Josiah Brew-
er, appointed by President Harrison
in 1889; Edward Douglas White of
Louisiana, appointed by President
Cleveland in 1893; Rufus W. Peck-
man of New York, appointed by
President McKinley; three appointees
by President Roosevelt—Oliver Wen-
dell Holmes of Massachusetts, William
R. Day of Ohio and William Henry
Moody of Massachusetts—and Horace
H. Lurton of Tennessee, appointed by
President Taft.
PETALUMA BOASTS OF HENS.
California County Has 2,500,000 Regu-
lar Egg Layers.
Petaluma county, Cal., has 2,500,-
000 laying hens and the largest in-
cubator factory in the world. Ship-
ments of eggs in 1909 amounted to
7,159,481 dozen, or 1,846,000 dozen
more than in 1908. In addition 120,018
dozen of poultry were shipped, an in-
crease of 37,000 dozen over 1908. Al-
lowing for hatching and consumption
(1,250,000 dozen), the Petaluma dis-
trict produced last year over 100,000,-
000 eggs.
One hatchery alone produces 100,000
chicks a month and runs to full capac-
ity most of the year. The demand for
eggs is so great that in spite of this
.great production at Petaluma and
also productions at other points Cali-
fornia is compelled to import from
the east several million dozen each
year. For the entire state the ship-
ments of eggs last year totaled 34,-
601,898 dozen.
To feed the Petaluma hens it takes
over 400 tons a day, or 800,000 pounds,
of which wheat, corn, barley, bran and
middlings form the largest part, about
340 tons.
Mackerel Catch Worth $2,640.
With the mackerel fishing season
near its end the largest catch taken
to Boston this year and one of the
largest ever made by a single schooner
arrived at T wharf on the Bessie M.
Dugan. There were 12,000 fish, and
they sold for 22 cents apiece, thereby
netting $2,640 for the captain and
crew, excellent pay for one night's
work.
