Excerpt from Political Issues and Outlooks: Speeches Delivered Between August, 1908, and February, 1909
While we may properly felicitate ourselves on this widened function of our courts, enabling us to avoid less peaceable methods of settling important politico-legal questions have we the right to say that our present administration of justice generally insures continued popular satisfaction with its results? I think not. It may be true that down to the pres ent time it has supplied a means of settling controversies between individuals and of bringing to punishment those who offend against the criminal laws sufficient to prevent a general disturbance of the peace and to keep the dissatisfied from v1olent manifestation against the Government and our present social system.
