_v._ Davis Provision Co., 191 U.S. 373
(1903).

[18] Fauntleroy _v._ Lum, 210 U.S. 230 (1908). Justice Holmes, who spoke
for the Court in both cases, asserted in his opinion in the latter that
the New York statute was "directed to jurisdiction," the Mississippi
statute to "merits," but four Justices could not grasp the distinction.

[25] Thus why should not a judgment for alimony be made directly
enforceable in sister States instead of merely furnishing the basis of
an action in debt? _See_ Thompson _v._ Thompson, 226 U.S. 551 (1913).

suggestion of want of jurisdiction and unsupported by evidence, violates
the clause. _See also_ Rogers _v._ Alabama, 192 U.S. 226, 231 (1904);
Wells Fargo & Co. _v._ Ford, 238 U.S. 503 (1915).

[29] Justice Johnson, dissenting in Mills _v._ Duryee, 7 Cr. 481 (1813),
had said: "There are certain eternal principles of justice which never
ought to be dispensed with, and which Courts of justice never can
dispense with but when compelled by positive statute. One of those is,
that jurisdiction cannot be justly exercised by a State over property
not within the reach of its process, or over persons not owing them
allegiance or not subjected to their jurisdiction, by being found within
their limits." Ibid. 486.
