Tallulah Falls—Chief Interest Cen
tered Alton the Address of the
New York Jurist—President llurton
Smith Introduced Him, and He Was
Given an Ovation.
Tallulah Falls, July 3.—ln many re
spects the most notable event in the
history of the Georgia Bar Associa
tion was the address delivered to that
body by Chief Judge Alton B. Parker
of the New York Court of Appeals,
and the reception given that eminent
New Yorker by Georgia’s foremost
judges and jurists.
To-day’s trains brought in a large
number of prominent attorneys, mem
bers of the Senate and House and
other citizens from different parts of
the state, and the beautiful pavilion
was crowded to overflowing this aft
ernoon when the hour for the address
arrived. Early in the afternoon a
heavy rain began to fall, and there
were evidences of a storm, but by 4:30
o’clock the sun broke through the
clouds, and all the external became
most propitious and pleasing.
Judge Parker was escorted from the
hotel by Chief Justice Simmons, for
mer Chief Justice Bleckley, Senator
Bacon and the judges of the Supreme
and Superior Courts. As the party
entered, the audience rose, giving the
distinguished visitor a most enthusi
astic ovation.
President Burton Smith introduced
Judge Parker in an exceedingly happy
speech. Another ovation was given
that gentleman as he rose to deliver
his address, and it was several min
utes before he could proceed.
“Due Process of Law” was his
theme. As was befitting the occasion
he read his address, a carefully pre
pared legal paper, and he was given
the compliment of the elcreest attention
of his large audience.
Judge Parker's Address.
judge Parker spoke in part as fol
lows:
"The source of the famous phrase,
‘Due Process of Law,' is to be found
in the English Magna Charta. The two
phrases ‘due process of law and, the
law of the land.' have long been treat
ed as synonymous.
“The phrase does not appear in the
original constitution of the United
States adopted in 1787, but was first
embodied in the constitution with Arti
cle 5 of the amendments to the origi
nal constitution, proposed by Congress
in 1789. The words are also found in
the constitution of most of the states
of the Union. In some of the states the
words ‘due process of law' are not
used, the framers of the constitution
of those states having more closely
followed the phraseology of Magna
Charta, ‘the law of the land.’
"While the phrase came to us from
England, it is far more potential under
our system of government than it is
or ever was in England. There, it re
strained the King, and not Parliament.
Here it operates upon every depart
ment of federal and state government.
In this country no provision was in
serted in any constitution that in ex
press terms conferred upon the courts
the power to set aside the statute on
the ground that it offended against any
provision of such constitution. The
phrase, however, proved to be a limi
tation on legislation in 1803 when the
Supreme Court of the United States
supported by an opinion of Chief Jus
tice Marshall declared an act of Con
gress which attempted to confer orig
inal jurisdiction on the Supreme Court
under the judiciary act, null and void,
on the ground that it was repugnant
to the provisions of the constitution
distributing original and appellate au
thority.
“That famous decision, asserting for
the first time a principle which lies at
the very foundation of our constitu
tional jurisprudence, was in hostility
to the views of many of our famous
statesmen, among them Jefferson and
Hamilton.
‘•The Judicial Veto.”
"One of the earliest cases of which
trace is found, sustaining the principle
of a 'judicial veto of a legislative act,’
\vas brought before the Supreme Court
of New Jersey and argued on consti
tutional grounds in 1779. The decision
held that an act providing that trial
hy jury should be by a jury of six
men was unconstitutional. Later the
law thus declared unconstitutional was
amended by the Legislature.
"Judge Parker calls attention to nu
merous legal cases in which the prin
ciple of 'due process of law' was in
volved and dwells upon the fact that
in 1868 the Fourteenth Amendment be
came a part of the constitution of the
t nited States, by which amendment
was incorporated in the constitution
the ‘due process of law’ provision, to
be found in most of the state constitu
tions; and this time not as a restraint
upon the power of the federal govern
ment, a3 in the Fifth Amendment, but
as a limitation upon the power of the
states.
"At no time in the history of this
country could this amendment have
been adopted prior to the so-called re
construction period; and if it were not
now a part of the constitution it is not
probable that it could be incorporated
into that instrument. It is doubtful
if it would have been adopted had it
been then understood to confer upon
Congress the power to enforce the re
strictions on state powers contained in
the amendment, and upon the Supreme
Court power to set aside provisions of
a state constitution or statute which
in the judgment df that court abridge
• he privileges or immunities of citizens
of the United States, deprive any per
son of lite, liberty, or property with
out due process of law, or deny to any
person within the jurisdiction of the
state equal protection of the laws—
thereby placing the essential rights of
life, liberty, and property under the
ultimate ' p rotection of the national
government.
"lleyond all question support was
obtained tor the adoption of that
amendment upon the supposition that
its sole, purpose was to benefit the col
ored race, which at thgt time needed
Protection against unfriendly action in

vate property for public use on pay
ment of just compensation is inherent
in sovereignty. Nearly all the state
constitutions prohibit such taking
without just compensation and the
statutes provide a due and orderly
procedure in the taking. Several state
constitutions place, a limitation on the
Legislature in this respect and the
Fourteenth Amendment prohibits a
state taking without ‘due process of
law.’
’Concerning the power of taxation
aggrieved taxpayers Wave frequently
appealed to the Supreme Court of the
United States for relief against state
statutes on the ground that they offend
against the due process of law provis
ion. That court, through Justice
Harlan has said: ‘ln order to bring
I‘axation imposed by a state within the
scope of the Fourteenth Amendment
of the national constitution, the case
should be so clearly and palpably an
illegal encroachment upon private
rights as to leave no doubt that such
taxation is really spoliation under
guise of exercising the tax pow'er.'
“The decisions of the Supreme 1 Court
show that the tendency of later years
to assume that the Judicial Department
of the government should review and
correct the errors of the legislative
and executive authorities has receiv
ed little support from the United
States Supreme Court considering the
assaults upon taxing statutes of states
and the procedure thereunder.”
Action of State Governments.
“More and more every year is due
process of law invoked by reason of
its place in the Fourteenth Amendment
to challenge the’action of state gov
ernments, and the time cannot be pre

“It may be safely asserted that the
restraining pow’er of the Fourteenth
Amendment against the states will be
exercised far more conservatively by
that court of which every citizen is
justly proud, than it would were the
exercise of it confined to the other
powers of the national government.
“I feel warranted in saying that val*
uable beyond comparison as has been
the service of the Supreme Court of the
United States to the people, it never
has been charged with a greater re
sponsibility than that placed upon it by
the adoption of the Fourteenth Amend
ment —a responsibility to the meeting
of which its individual members have
practically devoted their supreme ener
gies, great abilities and broad scholar
ship, keeping ever in mind--as appears
from the many opinions written—the
danger expressed by Mr. Justice Mil
ler of so far extending the Fourteenth
Amendment as to ‘fetter and degrade
the state governments.’ ”

Cable Ship Reaches Honolulu With the Trans
pacific Cable.
(By Pacific Cable)
Honolulu, July 3.—The cable ship
Anglia arrived here this morning,
bearing the Honolulu end of the trans
pacific cable, now extending from Ma
nila, via Guam and Midway Islands,
to this port.
The cable will be landed at once and
connected with the section of the line
from Honolulu to San Francisco, al
ready in operation. Unless some unto
ward event should occur, the complete
line will be in operation by to-morrow
morning, in accordance with the an
nouncement made long since by Clar
ence Mackay, president of the Pacific
Commercial Cable Company.
No hitch in the arrangements is an
ticipated and the first message over
the new line will almost certainly be
transmitetd by President Roosevelt to
Gov. Taft promptly at noon to-mor
row.
The Commercial Pacific Cable Com
pany was incorporated under the laws
of the state of New York on Sept. 23,
1901, with a charter authorizing it to
lay and operate a submarine cable
from California to the Philippine Is
lands, by way of the Hawaiian Islands.
Some years previous the Navy Depart
ment had taken soundings across the
Pacific ocean for the purpose of deter
mining a suitable route for a subma
rine cable, and after a careful survey
that department had recommended the
route from San Francisco to the Ha
waiian Islands, thence to the Midway
Island, Island of Guam, and the Phil
ippines. After Congress had decided
against a government cable, and an
amicable understanding had been ar
rived at between the cable company
and the government, these soundings
were turned over to the company for
their information. When It is remem
bered that the greater the depth the
greater the pressure and strain upon
the cable, and that the average depth
by the route selected was about three
miles, the magnitude of the task
marked out by these soundings be
comes sufficiently impressive. The
route had four great ocean stretches of
2,276, 1,254, 2,593 and 1,490 miles. On the
first, between San Francisco 'fend Ha
waii, the mean depth is 2,500 fathoms,
with a maximum of 3,073; on the sec
ond, between Hawaii and Midway Is
land, the mean depth is 2,000, the max
imum 3,026: on the third, from Midway
Island to Guam, the mean depth is 2,-
600. with a maximum of 4,900, and with
sudden and great fluctuations; on the
fourth, the Guam to Luzon, the aver
age depth is 2,200, the maximum 3,400
fathoms. To bring home the signifi
cance of these immense depths in ca
ble laying, it may be explained that
the amount of cable in suspension nec
essarily varies according to the depth
and rate of paying out.
The contract for the first section of
the,cable from San Francisco to Hon
olulu was awarded to the India Rubber
Gutto Percha Telegraph AVorks Com
pany, of London, England. The rea
son for placing the order with an Eng
lish firm was the lack of sufficiently
high development in the methods of
manufacture of submarine cables in
this Country. In an enterprise where
the penalty for failure would have
been so serious and where the risks
were unusually numerous, it was nec
essary to take advantage of all the
skill and experience which English
manufacturers had gained during years
of practice in this business.
The cable company had undertaken
to complete the line to Manila by 1904,
but the work of manufacture had been
so diligently pushed and the business
of laying the cable was so thoroughly
systematized that the representative
of the company was able to announce
at the 1 tfme the shore end was laid in
San Francisco that completed com
munication would be established with
the Philippines by the Fourth of July,
1903. A separate contract had been
awarded to the Telegraph Construction
her cottage in honor of Mrs. Parker.
Judge and Mrs. Parker will leave Sat
urday for New York.
President Burton Smith, after a warm
discussion, appointed the follow ing
committee to present a memorial to
the Legislature, calling for the adop
tion of the Torrens land registry sys
tem in Georgia: Washington Dessau,
J. L. Sweat, Reuben Arnold and W.
C. Bunn.
This registration system does away
with the multiplicity of deeds and is
conducted on the ledger system, which
gives one description of the property
in question and the chronological hold
ers of the property. It is claimed that
a vast deal of labor is saved in search
ing out titles to property.
ROOT AND GARDINER

row at Fort Erie, the light heavy

ner of the twenty-round go gets the

Both men rested to-day and both are

and Maintenance Company for the re
maining sections of the cable from
Honolulu to Midway-Guam and the
Philippines. On the 9th and 10th of
April last the steamships Colonia and
Anglia, belonging to the manufactur
ers, left London with over 6,000 miles
of cable in their tanks. The Colonia.
which laid the longest section of the
cable, that between Guam and Mid
way, 2,606 nautical miles, is the largest
cable ship afloat.
The Anglia arrived at Manila on
May 22, and having landed the shore
end on May 24 she paid out the cable
through St. Bernardino strait and on
toward the Guam. She arrived at
Guam on June 2 and established cable
communication between Manila and
Guam on June 4. The Colinia had
proceeded direct to Guam, where she
arrived on May 27. At that point the
engineering and electrical staffs were
transferred from the Anglia to the
Colonia, and the latter vessel began
to perform her share of the work by
laying the cable from Guam to Mid
way. The work was performed with
marvelous precision and success, and
with but a single interruption, at the
rate of 200 miles a day and an average
speed of nine knots an hour. The Co
lonia arrived at Midway on June 19,
and communication between Midway
and Guam was thus established, con
necting Midway with the telegraphic
systems of the world, and leaving only
the small section between Midway and
Honolulu to be laid to complete the
encircling of the globe. The Anglia
had proceeded from Guam to Midway,
and on the arrival of the Colinia at
that point her engineering and elec
trical staffs were transferred back to
the Anglia, and the latter began to
pay out the Midway and Hawaii sec
tion of the cable. AA’aikiki, near Hon
olulu, is the landing place of the San
Franciseo-Honolulu and the Honolulu-
Midway sections of the cable, and with
the news of the arrival of the Anglia
at this point the announcement went
out to the world that the great en
terprise of bridging the Pacific with
a submarine cable had passed into
history, and that an American Pacific
cable was at last a reality.
The Commercial Pacific cable is a
work which cannot fail to be of great
benefit to the country commercially,
politically and strategically. True to
its traditions, the Commercial Cable
Company has
■Pacific the signal for the reduction of
cable tolls. Prior to the incorporation
of the Commercial Pacific Cable Com
pany, in September, 1901, the rate for
messages from New York to the Phil
ippine Islands was *2.35 per word: in
November. 1901, this rate was reduced
by the European cable companies to
$1.66 per word. The simple announce
ment of the intention of the Commer
cial company to lay a Pacific cable
thus effected a saving of 69 cents pet
word. Before entering on the execu
tion of Us contract the Commercial
Pacific Cable Company bound itself to
charge but $1 per word from San
Francisco to China; $1 a word from
San Francisco to Manila and 50 cents
from San Francisco to Honolulu, the
last named rate to be reduced within
two years to 35 cents a word. This
Pacific cable will greatly increase the
value and efficiency of the United
: States navy. It will keep the govern
-1 ment in close touch with the military
and civil authorities in the Philippine
j islands, and will in many other respects
: greatly strengthen the bond between
| the Unted States and its possessions
iin the Pacific. The extension of the
cable to China will be the next step
| in its development, and by no means
| the least important one, since the ad
vancement of American commercial in
terests in the Chinese Empire impera
tively demands the provisions of an all
American line of ocean telegraphy.
For all the beneficent results which
are likely to attend the completion of
this great enterprise the country has
to thank the late John W. Mackay.
| whose energy and perseverance had
! done so much for commerce by the In
-1 troduction of new enterprise into the
! business of Atlantic telegraphy, and
without whom it is safe to say that
| there would have been no American
[ Pacific cable for years to come.
BROWN KEPT BUSY
TRYING TO KILL HIMSELF.
HI. Some Told of the Efforts That
He Made.
Pittsburg, July 3.—The investigation
by the coroner as to the cause of the
death of the late Recorder J. O. Brown
was resumed to-day.
Miss Susie McLean', a member of the
family with whom Mr*. Brown boarded,
testified that when Dr. McKelvey was
called Brown was in a stupor, having
taken fifteen'trional powders. Dr. Mc-
Kelvey gave orders that all medicines
in Brown’s room, and his revolver,
were to be removed, and that he should
not be left alone at any time.
The witness told of Brown's efforts to
get her to leave the room. She finally
did go, and watched him from the hall
way. He went to a drawer in a bu
reau and took Out a small box. The
witness went in and after a struggle
with him. in which he displayed un
hsual strength, got the box from him.
She noticed the word, "cyanide” o®i the
box.
Miss McLean said once when she
pretended to withdraw she saw him go
to the chiffonier, where the revolver
had been kept and make a search ap
parently for it.
Brown was left alone at times during
Sunday. He died that afternoon.
While it was not stated by the wit
ness, the inference was that Mr. Brown
had secured poison during a moment
he was left alone.
The coroner asked the witness if Mr.
Brown had talked about going hack
to his wife. The witness answered:
“About two or three weeks before
he died I heard h‘m say he would die
before he would go back to live with
his wife.”
Miss Nettie McLean told of Mr.
Brown going into her room and search
ing where he knew she kept a revol
ver. He asked her to give him a re
volver. She said she believed Brown
committed suicide because he said he
wanted to die and that he would be
dead before midnight Saturday.
