“In the states and in the federal
government we have the right of im-
peachment and in several states the
right of removal of a judge by the
legislature. If the right of impeach-
ment is not sufficient, an adequate
remedy can be created for the removal
of a judge for conduct inconsistent
with his office after complaint is made
and Le is given an opportunity to be
heard in his own defense. In this way
the independence of th" judiciary is i
maintained and a judge is removed
simply for incapacity or misconduct in
office.
“TLe advocates of the system claim
that it is the interest of the common
people. This we deny. For more than
three hundred years the greatest bul-
wark for the protection of the mass of
the people has been the courts. There
never was a time in our country When
any man, however poor or humble,
could not apply to the courts and be
assured of protection. Is it any re-
proach upon the courts that they have
extended the same protection to the
rich aud powerful when assailed by
popular prejudices?”
