Competent minds and the Indiana legislature debate
The attorney general criticizes the Legislature and calls its impeachment actions ill advised while defending his own view of constitutional limits. He singles out Kane and other prominent lawyers, provoking countercharges of prejudice and prompting discussion of Supreme Court review to resolve authority and protect against judicial tyranny. The piece reflects on Sixty-Ninth Congress accomplishments and Muscle Shoals policy shifts, praising public ownership over private exploitation and noting lingering late-session clashes and missed chances.
