John Marshalls Court rulings
Hamilton was a federalist and served as the secretary of the treasury in the 1890s. He was a strong supporter of a centralized federal government. He also advocated loose interpretation of the u.s. constitution and the use of the elastic clause. Which was an ambiguous power of the federal government stating that "congress can do what it is proper and necessary" john Marshall's epitomizing of these Hamiltonian principals and philosophies can be seen in several of his court rulings. Such as, McCulloch vs. Maryland, Dartmouth college vs. Woodward, Gibbons vs. Ogden, and Cohens vs. Virginia. In the case Mcculloch vs. Maryland in 1819, Maryland brought a suit against McCulloch and bands him for refusing to pay a tax on the federal bank. Marshall said, "
This ruling strengthened the federal government with the power to regulate interstate commerce. This set the precedent for the Gosceant contract. In 1824 the Cohens were arrested for selling lottery tickets in Virginia. Ogden had the state given monopoly of the New York waterways. That act required all vessels on navigational, coastal an interstate waterways that you have a federal license there fore the monopoly was void. Marshall's ruling strengthened the federal government by establishing the power of the Supreme Court to review all state court decisions. His decision was in favor of the federal bank. the power to tax implies the power to destroy. New York's giving of a monopoly conflicted with the federal coasting act. It established the national supremacy over state governments. The courts ruling was in favor of the republican board members. It also paved the way for vast expansion of federal power in the future. They then appealed to the Supreme Court. Republican members of the board of trustees sought to have the state legislature convert the school into a new state university. Which again had strengthened the central governments.
