JK 265 1909 Copyright, 1900, 1909, Printers S. J. PARKHILL & Co., BOSTON, U. 8. A. GIFT MAR 10 '30 PREFACE TO SECOND EDITION. THE changes and additions which have been thought necessary to bring this collection of cases down to the present time are of three classes: First. Some cases which have been so explained or limited by the Supreme Court of the United States that they have become misleading as present statements of the law have been eliminated and in their places later cases containing the more recent expositions of the same subjects have been substituted. Second. A considerable number of recent cases illustrating the application of cases in the text have been referred to by brief statements, in the notes, of the points decided. Third. Some important recent cases relating to Interstate Commerce, the Government of Annexed Territory, Due Process of Law, and Equal Protection of the Laws, have been added in appendices under proper headings. Except as cases have been eliminated from the text by the substitution of more recent cases on the same subjects, there is no substantial change in the text, new groups of cases being put in the appendices.
