To Obtain A Just Compromise, Concession Must

The Federal Government Is Acknowledged By All To Be One Of Enumerated Powers. The Principle, That It Can Exercise Only The Powers Granted To It . . . Is Now Universally Admitted.

To Obtain A Just Compromise, Concession Must Not Only Mutual-it Must Be Equal Also....there Can Be No Hope That Either Will Yield More Than It Gets In Return.

What Are The Maxims Of Democracy? A Strict Observance Of Justice And Public Faith, And A Steady Adherence To Virtue.

Courts Are The Mere Instruments Of The Law, And Can Will Nothing. When They Are Said To Exercise A Discretion, It Is A Mere Legal Discretion, A Discretion To Be Exercised In Discerning The Course Prescribed By Law; And, When That Is Discerned, It Is The Duty Of The Court To Follow It. Judicial Power Is Never Exericised For The Purpose Of Giving Effect To The Will Of The Judge; Always For The Purpose Of Giving Effect To The Will Of The Legislature; Or, In Other Words, To The Will Of The Law.

A Constitution Is Framed For Ages To Come, And Is Designed To Approach Immortality As Nearly As Human Institutions Can Approach It.
