great scarcity of skilled labor, many of the
“bosses” complain that but few journeymen
can be found who can be entrusted with the
best work. Numbers of! negro mechanics
have come here from other Southern cities.
White labor in all the abnve branches is in

Superior Court. Comment is unnecessary)**® —
gnment of Hon. Levi S. ltuasell speaks foe itself:
The Mayor and Aldermen of the city of. Savannah vs.
Frank P. Yeager, charged with violating city ordi
nance, selling liquor without necessary license.'
Septemtber 28,1868r 7 49, P. JL
And now to wit, on this fourteenth day of October,
Anno Domini, eighteen hundred mid sixty eight,'
frames thff defendant, Frank P. Yeager.' by; his attor-
nies in open Court, and mbvesr that the proceedings in
the city of Savannah un
ci, and about to be
'sapm^jjeacHbes a
trial and punishment for the offence of ‘.Belling liquor,
without a license, being in conflict with the State law.
2d. That the Mayor and Aldermen have no author
ity or jurisdiction by law to try the defendant for the
alleged offence, viz; Selling liquor without a license—
the offence''being indictable under the State law,
which prescribes the mode of trial and punishment!
3d. That this Court, which is composed of the May
or and Aldermen of the city of Savannah, cannot exer
cise the functions ot the Superior Court of Chatham
county, or of a petit
liquor without a license. That they have no right or '
-authority to deprive the defendant- of the- Constitur^
tional right of trial by a jury of his countrymen.
4th. That the grant to the Mayor and Aldermen of
the power to regulate tavern- licenses, and licenses to
retail liquors, does not confer upon the corporation
the right to punish for retailing without a license. It
merely gives the corporation the right which-was for
merly vested in the Inferior Court,-which was simply
to decide who should have a license,” and the price of
it. Under this power the Inferior Court could never
punish, nor can the corporation do so now.
5th. That the Mayor and Aldermen of the city of
Savannah, according to their own record, are the
prosecutors in this case, which they are now about, -
adjudicating—thereby acting in two capacities, via/.
prosecutors and judges, which acta and doings are'
contrary to law and the Constitution of the State.
Levi S. Russell,

Hon. Levi S. Russell moved-that the proceedings be
dismissed, and on said motion, the following is his ar
gument:

ceptions taken by me to the jurisdiction of this Court,
and for the purpose of avoiding any. misunderstand
ing, I have committed to writing my argument, and
the laws' which' do govern^this case.
I respectfully ask your attention for a few minutes,
whilst I indulge the hope, that I will be enabled to con
vince your Honors that you have labored under a mis
take in taking judicial cognizance of this oase in the
in which you are now. proceeding .with it. I

Local News!—The absence of our regular

UTBaSdacision on my motion to digmifaiha' iiroceaa- - ys.' .n,,.
ings of the trial of tUo defendant, slsmld it bo'denied* ' te ** a, , -
him, does not necessarily involve the flua) detenuino- lure, Or tfle. UOUOIS
tion of the rights of the defendant before a higher tri
bunal. . .
Legislative powey is that which declares what the
law shall be; judicial is that whicli" declares what the-
law is, and applies if to pjw{ transactions and existing
cases; the one makes the law. the other expounds and
judicially administers it; the one prescribes a rule of
civil conduct, the other interprets and enforces it in a
case of litigation; the province of the former is Jus
dare, the office of the latter is just dicere.
The corporation is the mere creature of law, created
by the sovereign power of the State lor public pur
poses, connected with tbe. execution and administra
tion of juatice, tne agent of the body politic, to give*
effect to its* sovereignty ahd carry into effect its will.
Can it prosecute and adjudicate a case wherein it
self is prosecutor ? Can a Judge institute his own ac
tion and adjudicate his own case? However unskilled
a person may be in the science of law, the answer must
be that it cannot be done according \o law. This case
is similar in fact The Mayor and Aldermen are the
prosecutors and judgeB which cannot be denied, be
cause the record shows the fact.
The Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Savannah,
which now constitute the Court iq the exercise of this
extraordinary assumed power by this summary pro
cess of adjudication, cannot sustain itself uuder the
impression o{ abstract justice or equity, nor neither
can it be permitted to transcend the boundaries with
in which it has been confined by the law and the Con
stitution of the State. The offence imputed to this
defendant iB selling liquor without a license, for which
the laws of the State, which are greater than an 7 cor
poration ordinance have provided a sufficient penalty.
In this case, instead of prosecuting the defendant
for a violation of the State law, he was brought up,
tried and convicted for the same offence in violation
of the city ordinance, which trial and conviction was
adjudged by the Mayor.
The Mayor and Alderinen of the city of Savannah
cannot change, modify or repeal a statute of the State
of Georgia. Tha legislative authority of the State is
paramount to the alike authority in any corporation.
Even if the power existed in the Mayor and Aider-
men of the city of Savannah to legislate on this sub- *
ject, it was in subordination to the higher legislative
power existing in the General Assembly, and it could
pass no ordinance coming ip\ conflict in any manner
with a statute. Q# his appeal you are about trying
: him for the same off ence in tho same manner as here
tofore. Should you proceed and try this case after
listening to the decisions of the Supreme Court of
Georgia bearing uirecily upon the pupils Which are
similar in substance, you wil\ tl\vi\ l\o\ only assume
legislative and judicial pov^irs, nut farther/you will
annul the opinion qf the highest judicial power which
now exists in our state.
The only power which the Mayor and Aldermen of
the city of Savannah can exorcise in regard to offences
of this kind, is to tab® the depositions and cause the
defendant's arrest mid commit* or bind him over to
tne Superior Court, which has cognizance of the of
fence, but further than this they cannot proceed.
C. G. par. 4481, declares—“That if any person shall
keep a tippling shop, or sell by the quart without the
license, and taking the oath prescribed in this Code,
or sell by retail iu quantities less than one quart, any
wine, brands', rum, gin, whiskey, or other spirituous
liquors, or any mixture of such liquors, any house,
booth, arbor, stall, or other place whatever, without
license from the ^qperiur Court of the county, or
without a license from the corporate authorities of
any town or city where by law, authority to grant
licenses is vested in the corporate authorities of such
towns or citieB, qiich . persons so offending shall be
guilty of a misdemeanor, and uu conviction- shall be
punished as prescribed in Section 4245 C. G., which
is a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars; impris
onment not exceeding six months in the jail; to work
in a chain gang.on the public works, not to exceed
twelve months;and any one or more of these punish
ments may be ordered In the discretion of the Judge."
The ordinance undqr which the defendant was ar
raigned and tried by the Mayor, and is about being
tried by your honors, prescribes a different mode of
punishment for thesame offence, viz: a fine of fifty
dollars, or imprisonment in the jail of Chatham
County for thirty, dajk / X V

of trial and punishment for the same offeneb; and in
addition thereto, to .that provided by State law."
(Geo. R. V. 35, p. 148.1 Charles J. Jenkins, plaintiff
in error, vs. The "Mayor and Town - Council of the
town of ThoiqasviUc, defendants in error, Supreme
Court Lumpkin, C. J.
The plaintiff in error was arrested and tried on four
teen cases by the municipal authorities of Thomas-
ville, for selling spirituous liquors to free persons of
color, contrary to the ordinances of said town, and on
conviction, was fined fifty dollars in each case. '
The State having passed a lavr upon the same sub
ject, to allow the authorities of Thomasville to punish
It as an offeree against tbeir ordinances, would either
be to oust the jurisdiction of the State in the premises,
or to punish the offence twice—once .by the State, and
again by the town. There is another objection to this
proceeding. In these, cases the accused tried by
the Mayor and Council without the intervention of a
jury; whereas, in the State Courts, he is entitled to tho.
benefit of thls constitutional privilege (21 Geo. R., p.
80). The line is not very accurately drawn where
municipal power ends ana State power begins. The
former ha» ample space to legislate without trenching
upon the jurisdiction of the State fa all doubtful
cases it would be better for the corporate authorities
to arrest and commit the offender for trial before the
proper State tribunals. ”
c;g., par. 4761, granta to theMtyor and Aldermen
the power to regulate tavern licenses and licences to
retail liquors; but this grant of power does not confer
SSSn meraty gives to the corporation
the right which was formerly vested in the Inferior
"Court, which was simply to decide who Should have a
license, and the price of it.
. Under this power the Inferior Court could never
punish, QO£C4U the corporation do SO now. This view
of the law makes if consistent with the decision of the
Supreme Court in the case of Jenkins, plaintiff in
error, against the Mayor and Town Council of Thom-
asville. Defendant in error already alluded to.
* Where a ctmrtprefirdmes to try a man for an offence
of which it has no right to take judicial cognizance,
all It* proceedings arc null and void. If the party is
acquitted, he Cannot plead the acquittal afterwards in
bar of another prosecution. If he is found guilty and
sentenced, he is; entitled to be relieved from the pun
ishment. ... •
