"If judges are to .bc subjected to tbe treatment' accorded Judge Speer," concludes the report, "bow cap they be expected to maintain that spirit of independence so essential to the just administration of the law? "It ia not .necessary to say anything in commendation of Judge Speer. The laet line of the majority report, re commending no further action upon thc charges is, despite all criticism to the'contrary, a complete vindica tion. It would not have been written if the evidence had pointed to any thing worth/ of real crltisicm. (n conclusion let me add that the day will come when Judge Speer will, be remembered with pride by the people cf Georgia, not only for bia ability and integrity, but especially for what JVlr. .Wimberly called his many beau tiful acts of mercy to the poor and oppypzscd; i .Majori! j Pep ort. "The subrcomniiitee regrets its in ability to either recommend a com plete acquittal of Judge Speer of all culpability so far as these charges are, concerned, cn the one hand, or an Impeachment, on the other bund." This was thu conclusion submitted to the house' Judiciary committee-by tho .special.sub-committee that fur months bifj been investigating charges of of ficial misconduct filed against Emory Speer of Macou, federal judge for the southern district of Georgia. The report, after an exhaustive re sume of evidence with severe com ment ?, held thal some of Judge peer's official actions "tend to approach a condition cf tyranny and oppression." |>ut .recommended that no further pro ceeding be had by the house. These conclusions now reBt with the full committee on judiciary, which ls expected to report on them to the house for final disposition of the case before tho adjournment of the present session of congress. The sub-commit tee comprises Representatives Webb, North Carolina; Eitzhenry, Illinois, .democrats, and Volstead, .Minnesota, republican. Nineteen charges were filed with '? committee. They alleg .?' ether things, that Judge tallied matters tieyond ri! diction, allowed excessive fess to u personal friend, used h. ficiul position for preferment ot his son-in-law, A. ri. Heyward, abused lils authority by domestic use of govern ment paid court employes, violated laws regarding drawing of jurors, and dissipated b^jikrupt estates by ap pointing unnecessary ollieials and al low In.- excessive fees. Another charge was that in the case'or Henry Jamison, a Macon negro. Judge Speer defied: the mandates of the supreme court of the United States and' the circuit court of. appeals. : The' sub-committee's conefjusioni follows : ."The conclusion of the sub-commit tee deduced from the evidence taken; and fr cm the. construction, of the pre cedents of impeachment.trials, is ?hat at the present time ' satisfactory evi dence sutil cient to support! a convie-.

That, the power of the court 'has beep exercised in a , despotic nihl autocratic manner by tho Judge cannot bo questioned. ~:'.Th?, Jamison case.
