No vulgar error so
gross as that which
supposes Judge's object
to be minimization of
injustice
Of the whole list of vulgar errors few indeed are so mischievous
for so gross as that which supposes that in the mind on the part
of that class of those who are stiled Minister of Justice minimization
of injustice has been the end to which their labours devotions have been
directed. the to which the system of judicial procedure has in point
been directed: to minimization after substitute maximization
you will be near the truth.
