Now. what is the language of section 4? I ask you to observe it It is: SEc. 4. That the Bureau of Immigration and Naturalization is authorized from time to time to make or cause to be made by an agent or agents of such Bureau examinations of the methods employed in naturalization proceedings by any court or courts. "Examination of the methods * * * in courts!" Now. if there ever was a line written in a statute book absolutely subversive of the idea of keeping up a distinction between the judicial and executive power under the Government it is that. Here is an underling from an executive bureau. or the chief of it if you please. armed by statute with the power representing the executive to examine into the methods of the judicial power in attending to its duty. Think of that just a moment before we go any further!
