The piece recalls a 1896 Democratic platform pledge about the Supreme Court possibly upholding an income tax and the ensuing panic over court packing. It contrasts this past overreaction with current cases before the Supreme Court on the Philippines and Porto Rico, debating whether the constitution follows the flag and whether these possessions are territories or colonies.

It questions possible motives behind these appointments and warns a president should avoid the appearance of evil, noting even supreme court justices are human.
