EdNor &dr:-The press has commended itself
TO the public by 80 many vigorous editorial ex-
positions OF selfish schemes that It Is now looked
upon as the peoples mouthpiece. This week
you had occasion, together with the other dailies
OF this City, TO call attention to An arbitrary
Court In reference to publication OF legal 40
tees.
The rule, (ei. heretofore quoted, requires all
notices neang to 10 our courts
by rules OF the court" to be publisher in the
Washington Lar Reporter. &C., g.. AS. In
former articles. you have shown that this rule,
TO- day, Is abused, In that publication In said
reporter Is too frequent y resorted TO. without
publication In any other journal. and by reason
OF said Reporters limited circulation. the notice
subscribers. Thus too frequently divorces cases,
and causes OF great importance relating to
property, or, az the lawyers term them. actlons
in rem, are known only to the small nunbsr OF
subscribers OF this Lac Reporter.
That the court. as at present constituted, ani,
indeed, at date OF adoption Of this rue 1871,
right-thinking men and ali good lawyers the
history OF the rule Is wen known. A member
OF the bar. OF unooubted ability and greatly
beloved by his brethren and the judges, was the
editor OF the Reporter tn 1875, and it was on
their petition or request, and With the hearty
concurrence OF the court, that the rule was
adopted both bar and court hoping for the sue
cess of the legal journal. and never dreaming OF
an abuse OF this privilege At first Ii was con-
fined to the Orphans Court and soon after.
ward was adopted as applicable to all publica-
tons required BY law or rule OF court. The late
distinguished jurist, Judge DIN, holding then
the special term for probate business, was the
mover. subsequently, one Of our brightest le-
gal and literary Judges published through the
medium OF this Lar Reporter. the opinions OF
the Supreme Court or the District; but thi,
feature has long since been omitted. AMI the
occasion for the rule long since passed
its abuse for years past well known 10
the bar, and its abr0gatton prayed for
Even justices OF the peace. With their limited
powers and jurisdiction have until within
term or two past accepted this Rule 1911. AMI
advertised In the Reporter for absent defend lnts
or course, to well meaning practitioners this
was regarded as farce. but the practice was
continued through ignorance and BY shysters
until some were mulcted With costs Dy the
court. on certiorari writs to justices command
Ing cases to be sent up TO court. No doubt but
any OF our lawyers are ready today to move
that this much abused rule shall be rescindei,
and the court Will be glad to grant the m lotion
We DO not doubt. Rule l2i, adopted in May
1876. includes the order OF Judge DIN OF 2Sth
January, 1874, requiring publication, In notices
Of eecedentS estate. for next OF KIM &C., and
makes our Orphans Court a cover for what
ought to be known, as doubly expensive, for
what should be free. In short, the rule is an
abomlnation and should be abrogated at once
as 1t affords too much secrecy to the shysterS
and TOO little Information to the puolc. Y.
