EXTRACT FROM SPEECH OF HON. MARTIN J. WADE. Mr. Wade said: Mr. Chairman: I think that probably the most important utterance of any statesman of this nation was that of Chief Justice Marshall in the case of Marbury v. Madison, when he said that "this is a nation of law, not of men." This is a summing up, Mr. Chairman, of the entire basis upon which the Republic rests. It is a fair statement of the distinction which exists between a republic and a monarchy. A nation of law is a nation where the people speak; where they place upon the statute books certain laws; where they elect certain agents of employees called "officers," whose duty it is to enforce those laws regardless of their individual notion as to the justice of the law or the injustice of the law. A monarchy is a nation where the government is under the control of some man or some small body of men, whose whims and whose notions constitute the law which governs the people of the realm; and I want to say, Mr. Chairman, that there is no distinction between a monarchy and a republic when the officers of the republic cease to recognize the binding force of the law, when the officers of the republic undertake to determine for themselves whether they shall enforce the laws which the people have enacted or not. Mr. Chairman, on December 17, 1902, there was appropriated by this House, by a unanimous vote, the sum of $500,000, which was placed at the disposal of the Attorney-General of this Republic, an agent of the people, employed by them, vested with no discretionary power, but with the absolute duty cast upon him of enforcing the laws which they enacted. During the first session of the Fifty-seventh Congress there were exciting speeches on both sides of this House. Many bills were introduced. Much discussion took place, but little was accomplished. Congress adjourned and the Representatives went home to their people and they found that alarm had increased to panic; they found individual enterprises trembling for existence; they found that heartless men, inspired by avarice, were rapidly gaining control of the business of the country. When the second session of the Fifty-seventh Congress opened, it was flooded with bills from both sides of the Chamber, some of them most radical in their character; some of them depriving these combinations of the use of the mails; some of them seeking to tax them to death; some of them seeking to take away the tariff upon trust-made goods; some of them still more radical. Thus in hundreds of measures of different forms the people joined in a great movement for relief. In the midst of this effort on the part of certain members of the House to accomplish something which the people demanded, the |
