A Decision in the Case of Dube, the “ Contemptuous:” _ Taror, { i All the Points of the Compu- nist Lawyers Upset, And Judge Barnum’s Po: ions Overruled One by One, , Armed Bodies of Communists jot to Be Allowed to Parade. : filed in the office ¢f the Cleé Court for the Southern day a copy of the opinig Division to- the Supreme an appeal from Cook. IfviJ that, soon after the ppase of the Militia : ‘i ,’ Which provided, a armed bodies of whijh he dei use in #¢ Militia law was aneonstitu- Thiy being a habeas corpus cxse, it wd impossible to carry the matter to the Stpreme Court. Soon afterwards, However, apan bythe name of Dunne, being sum- ined to appear as a petit juror before ldge Barnum, then sitting in the Criminal yurt, pleaded his exemption, he being a iember of the National Guard, and, by the erms of the law, noi amenable. to jury service. The Court overruled the point, and, the juror refusing to serve, he was fined; and from that decision ‘an appeal was taken to the Supreme Court, sitting last November at Mount:Vernon, where the caso was argued by Mr. Charles A. Gregoryon behalf of the juror, and by Mr. Rubens on behalf of the people. The opinion in this most important case was filed to-day, and is as follows: The Court said that the case involved the validity of the statute under’ which the State militia was organized. Mr. M. J. Dunne, employed by one of the commercial firms of Chicago, . raised a plea ,of exemption from jury. service | in_.the.-.Criminal Court of Cook.. County. on’ the ground of - his .| being a member. of- a State regiment of militia. Judge Barnum, who was sitting in this Court at the time, while” he expressed the absence of disrespect to the gentleman, refused the excuse, remarking that the Miii- tia law of the State said that the militia should consist of 8,000 men, and. that if one militiaman was excused the remainder could claim an equal immunity. The same excuse, in his opinion, couldbe as well applied to saye militiamen from arrestin all cases ex- cept for treason, felony, or breach ‘of the peace. He regarded the law fixing the num- ber of the militia as directly conflicting with the Constitution of the United States regu- lating the same matte:, ‘which he held to be the only law in -force. Under the latter law the militia were called out in the War of the Rebellion, and he consid- ered it the only one under which they could again be called for active service., The Court held that there could not be two laws regulat- ing the same subject, and that the State law was suspended and inopera‘ive.. Judge Bar- num, therefore, when Mr.: Dunne failed to appear as a juror, fined him $50 forcontempt, from which an appeal was taken. ‘ * All preliminary considerations as: to the manner in which the case comes before the Court on the invalidity of theact under the Constitution of the State will be waived, with a view to a 3 PROCEED DIRECTLY TO THE QUESTION whether an act or such ‘parts’ of it as pro- vide for the organization of the active militia of the State known as the Llinois National Guard is void on account of its repugnancy to the Constitution of the United States and tothe laws passed in pursuance. thereof.” The act is declated to be in perfect harmony with the Constitution of the State, and that, if it is void, it must be for the reasons ‘above assigned. ‘The Court says: “ The importance of the questions involved has induced the most ~ careful consideration, but it will be our purpose to avoid all unnecessary discussion, and. state our views as briefly as practicable. The first provision submitted against the validity of the. act known as the Military Céue is, that. the power of organizing,’ arming, and disciplining the militia, being eonfined by the Constitution of the United States to Con- Congress has acted upon the gress, when subject and passed a law to carry into’ effect the constitutional provision, such action ex- cludes the power of legislation by the State upon the same subject. This is not, In our judgment, an accurate, certainly not a full, expression of the law. Two things must be assumed to sustain this proposition: First, that the constitutional provision in respect to the militia Is of that character that it can be only exercised by Congress, and that any State legislation would of necessity be in- consistent with the Federal legislation under that article of the Constitution; second, that the Constitution itself places restrictions either directly or indirectly upon’ all State legislation in respett to the militia. NEITHER ASSUMPTION IS WARRANTED by any fair construction of the Constitution of the United States nor by contemporaneous explanations by writers whose authori- ty is to. be respected, or by any sub- sequent judicial determinations with which we are familiar, It is not trne that all powers granted by Congress are exclusive unless when ‘concurrent authority is re- served to the States. Examples of concur Tent authority readily suggest themselves. Congress has power under the Constitution to levy and collect taxes, duties, imposts, and excises, but it has never been supposed that that grant of power. was a restriction upon the States to levy and collect taxes for State purposes. Such a construction would de- stroy all State Governments by taking from them the means of maint ng order Or pro- tecting life and property wi their juris- dictions. “Tt might be well in this connection,” say the Court, “to call to mind that all powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people. The power of State Govern- ments to legislate concerning the militia ex- fisted and was exercised before the adoption of the Constitution of the United States, an as its exercise was not prohibited by that in- strament, itis understood to remain with the States, subject only ay to the paramouns _
