BARTLETT’S
BACKUP
He Attacks the Federal Courts
and Their Method of Ad-. :

bringsT home
•
To His Own District Where
He Says Court is Judge
and Jury.
on iimofra dill,
He Opposes the Substitute Because
it Gives the Federal Court Un
limited Power Over Debtor.
Following is part of the speech of
Hon. Charles L. Bartlett on the bank
ruptcy bill, delivered in congress Febru
ary 17th.
Mr. Speaker: I fully appreciate the ne
cessity that requires that a bankruptcy
bill should pass at this session of congress
which should provide for the relief unfor
tuna-te debtors and at the same time be
just to the creditors. I have hoped that
there would be reported from the commit
tee on the judiciary such a bill on this
subject as would comnfend my support.
The senate bill known as the Nelson bill
(and for which the judiciary committee
of this house has reported this substitute,
fashioned upon what is known as the
Torrey bill), in my judgment, with a few
amendments, would meet the demands of
the country for bankruptcy legislation.
But this substitute upon which we are
called to vote ig unjust to the debtor, des
troys the laws of the various states upon
the subject of securing and collecting
debts, creates new crimes and offenses,
and will turn the collection of debts in the
country over to the courts of the United
States and place the power in the hands
of the creditors to harass, oppress and
destroy the debtors. To such a measure I
cannot give my support, much as I desire
a bankruptcy bill which will relieve the
distressed debtors of the country.
I know that there are in the district in
which I live, and which I have the honor
to represent upon the floor, numbers of
good men, my constituents and friends,
who have been financially overwhelmed
in the past few years, to whom a bank
ruptcy bill, such as would enable them to
surrender' their property to their creditors
and then be freed from the burden of their
debts, would be a great boon, because it
would enable them to begin life anew and
to add their industry, talents and energies
to ijie upbuilding of the communities in
which they live.
These unfortunate debtors have been
overwhelmed in financial trouble, not on
account of any fault of their own. not on
account of the failure of themselves to de
vote their energies to . their business, nor
on account of any want of care and at
tention to their affairs, but by the force
as circumstances over which they had no
ontrol. Their unfortunate condition is
due, Mr. Speaker, to that financial distress
and calamity which overspread the entire
country and which has destroyed the
values of property of every kind, because
’ the legislation of the country and the fi
nancial policy adopted by congress and
carried out by the administration for the
past ten years destroyed one-half of the
money which the people had before the
legislation was enacted and the policy was
adopted. * •
My constituents and my friends have
appealed to me, as they have appealed to
other representatives on the floor, to aid
them, if I could do so. to pass a bank
ruptcy law that would relieve them and
that would enable them again to renew
:heir energies in the struggle for life.
But, Mr. Speaker, much as I desire to
aid these unfortunate people, among them
some of the best citizens in my commu
nity, I cannot bring myself to vote for a
measure that while it may afford the op
portunity to those now in debt to be re
lieved, yet at the same time enacts upon
the statute book a permanent law which
will place every debtor and every other
person who carries on business hereafter
in the hands and power of the creditors to
oppress them, and to be. aided in that op
pression by the power and machinery o'
the federal courts.
* * * Added to these objections is the
unsurmountable objection which I have to
extending the jurisdiction of the federal
courts. This bill, in providing for proceed
ings against debtors in the federal courts,
extends unduly the jurisdiction of these
courts and, as I said, creates new felonies
hitherto unknown .in the federal criminal
jurisdiction for which to try the citizens
of this republic in the federal courts.
Standing here as a Democrat, believing
that the jurisdiction of the federal courts
should be curtailed rather than extended,
I am not ready to support this substitute
which is offered for the senate bill. I am
not ready by my vote to inaugurate a sys
tem of persecution as well as prosecution
in the federal court for new crimes which
are made -felonies, and which will be held
in terrorem over the hads of unfortunate
debtors by merciless creditors to force
them to compromise and settlement, and
oftentimes to the payment of unjust de
mands.
Mr. Stewart, of New Jersey: Will the
gentleman, from his historical knowledge ■
on the subject of bankruptcy laws, state
on this floor that a bankruptcy law with
out an involuntarj’ clause would fulfill the
constitutional provision that congress shall
pass “uniform laws on the subject of
bankruptcies?”
Mr. Bartlett: I think it would, and in
that view I am sustained by the argument
of Mr. Webster, just referred to, made in
1840. But, Mr. Speaker, before I would
vote for a bill like this, putting a man in
the custody of tne United States marshal
at the suggestion or dictation of some
commercial agency or some creditor who
might think he had not complied with the
law before I would put the people whom
I represent in the hands of the federal
court to be hounded down and prosecuted
for new crimes, I would let those people
struggle on forever and for aye, without
any legal relief from their indebtedness.
(Applause on the Democratic side.)
Better had they go on without the hope
or prospect of relief than that we should
inaugurate a system of bankruptcy and
| place its enfircement in the hands of the
i federal judiciary, and destroy eventually
the liberties of the’ people of this whole
country. For. Mr. Speaker, I believe as
Mr. Jefferson did when he declared that
the federal judiciary are the "subtle corps
of sappers and miners, constantly work
ing to undermine the foundations of our
confederated fabric. Against this every
man should raise his voice.”
I believe, Mr. Speaker, that the recent
history of the country, showing as it does
the administration of quasi-eriminal law,
the enforcement of attachments for con
tempts. what is called government by in
junction by the courts, demonstrates that
the federal courts are not to be intrusted
MACON NEWS FRIDAY EVENING, MARCH n 1898.
I with greater powers nor their Jurisdiction
j extended it the liberties ot the citizens are
to be preserved and remain inviolate.
j (Applause on the ’Democratic side.)
Mr. Speaker, though there may have
been within the last nineteen years 196,000
failures. Involving in amount something
like 13.000,000.000, and although my own
state has contributed to that amount $47.-
000,000, I shall not support this substitute
for these and other reasons, some of which
I bave stated. Better to submit to ills of
debt we now have and know of than to fly
to others which will be greater and more
burdensome.
Mr. Stewart, of New Jersey. May I ask
the gentleman another question?
Mr. Bartlett Yes, sir.
Mr. Stewart, of New Jersey. As I under
stand the attack of the gentleman from
' Georgia Is not against this bankruptcy
measure, but against the federal judiciary.
Mr. Bartlett. I am against both. I attack
i the substitute of the committee, and I op
pose extending the powers and jurisdiction
of the of the federal courts, because, as
we know it has been frequently demonstra
ted, no longer ago than last year (I have
the decision here), that the federal courts
do not respect the rights of the people as
they ought to do, and are quick to disre
gard the laws of the states. I am not op
posed to an involuntary feature of a bank
ruptcy bill, nor am I opposed to an invol
untary feature when the causes for invol
untary bankruptcy are founded upon ac
tual fraud.
But here it is proposed to create new
definitions of fraud; make new crimes,
felonies punishable by imprisonment for
two, four, or five years tn the federal pen
itentiaries. Because, forsooth (taking but
a single instance), a man may have made
to Dun or Bradstreet a statement that Dun
or Bradstreet thinks is not true, he is to
be denied a discharge; and not only that,
but he may be taken before a federal court
away from his home and tried before a
federal judge—with a jury, it is true; but
what lawyer in modern times ever saw a
criminal tried in a federal court when the
judge was not both judge and jury, direct
ing the verdict which is brought in, even
against the will of the jury? I do not know
how it is in the gentleman’s state, but I
know from experience how it is in my own
district. ,
Mr. Linney: Does the bill provide for
any appeal upon the trial of such criminal
indictment?
Mr. Bartlett: As I now remember, it
does not.
Mr. Linney: It does not.
Mr. Bartlett: I do not know that it does.
I have not recently examined that part of
it. It provides for appeals in oases of
bankruptcy and other judgments, as the
law now provides* I presume it would
cover that. 'lt does not do so in the terms,
but I think the general statute might cov
er it; unless appeal would lie under the
general law, there could be none in a
criminal case arising under this bill.
Upon this subject I . call attention to
what was said by Mr. Jefferson on the
18th day of August, 1821, in a letter which
he wrote to Mr. C. Hammond, to be found
on page 216 of volume 7 of Jefferson’s Life
and Works:
•We should hesitate to further increase
the powers and to extend the jurisdiction
of the federal courts.
“* * * It has long, however, been my
opinion, and I have never shrunk from its
expression, that the germ of dissolution of
our federal government is in the constitu
tion of the federal judiciary, an irrespon
sible body (for impeachment is scarcely a
scarecrow) working like gravity, by night
and by day, gaining a little today and a
little tomorrow, and advancing its noise
less step, like a thief, over the field of
jurisdicion. until all shall fle usurped form
the state, and the government of all be
consolidate with one.
"To this I am opposed, because when all
government, domestic and foreign, in lit
tle as in great things, shall be drawn to
Washington as the center oi all the power,
it will render powerless the checks pro
vided of one government on another, and
Will become as venial and oppressive as
the government from which we sepa
rated.”
I commend to the Democrats of this
House these words of this patriot and
statesman.
