Section 275 of the Code was made by The bill TO
read as follows Section 27j. Any citizen or person
resident Of this State who has, bona fide declared
his her intention to become citizen in the m
required 10y law, of the age of twenty yea rs
OF good moral character and who possesses the
essary qualifications OF learning ard ability, is entI-
tied to admission attorney and counselor in all
the Courts Of this State. All persons are attorneys
OF the supreme Court who were on the 1st day Of
January, 1880 entitled to practice IN the Court su-
perseded thereby. And any person may pfact &C in
the Superior Court Of his county, who on the st
day Of January 1880, was entitled u practice in
the District Court thereof.
Mr. Fox moved to amend BY striking out in the
last line the words " District Court thereof and in
serting the words "Supreme Court of this or any
other State so as to compel attorneys to pass an
examination in the Supreme Court before being en-
titled to practice in the Superior Courts. This led
to a heated discussion.
Mr.. COOPER opposed to the amendment upon
the ground that it would debar very many able
lawyers from practicng-men who, by reason of liv-
ing in remote parts Of the State were unable to get
TO Sacramento TO pass examination.
Mr.. Fox thought such an amendment necessity
There are many who have never applied to the su-
preme Court, and many who are practicing in the
lower Courts who have no business to. This pro-
vision will hurt no one but quacks.
Mr.. DU BRuTz opposed the amendment. The bill
stands reported by the Code Commission. He
thought the amendment was Intended to favor law
yers of standing and crowd TO the wall young prac-
titoners.
Mr.. CoRcoRAE thought if man had enough ability
to practice law he ought to be able to pass
ination before the Supreme Court.
Mr.. TYLER said the State full of legal quacks
and the amendment is intended TO protect the peO-
pie against them. If the people should be pro-
tected against quacks in medicine they orght to he
protected against quacks in the law.
The ayes aid noes were demanded, and the amend
m nt was lost by vote Of 22 TO Sc.
