manhood itself, we do not deny, but that

heap condemnation upon the profession,
for the records show US that labOrerg,
farmers, doctors and preachers each con-
tribute their quota to the criminal class,
and we give IL as our judgment that there
are more criminal preachers than cimi-
nal lawyers on the records.
We do not doubt that lawyers have be-
trayed the confidence repo5ed in them
time and again, but that is no good rea-
son why you should make a Wholesale
denunciatlon Of their class. II you, Mr..

Mr.. Observer, II you will consult your
history you will find, along with what
ever bad is recorded against lawyers, the
fact that In every revolution or move
ment Of modern times In behalf Of liberty
and justice, the leading and controlling
spirits we're largely composed Of lawyers;
as such in the earlier history Of our own
country might be mentioned the names
OF Jackson and Jefferson? Would you
derIde those men because OF the proies-
sion TO which they belongedH We would
ask II Lincoln and Sumner we're not the
foremost champions in our great strug-
gle for the destruction OF slavery, and
yet they were both lawyers. In this

E. Lease and that she is not alone pro-
RessioVally In an endeavor TO right the

TOPEKA, January 8, 1891.
On December 1S, 1890, a call received
from OCala, Florida, aud signed by a
large number Of the representative mem
bers Of the various industrial Organiza-
tiOns Of the country for q conference 10
be held at Cincinnati on February 23,
1891, was published by the press through
out the country. In pursuance Of this
call, at once Issued q notice for the
election Of delegates to this conference
from the various Congressional districts
of the state of Kansas. II appears that
after the call for this national conference
was mailed from Ocala, meeting was
held at Jacksonville, Florida, attended
by leading representatives Of the various
industrial organizations at which il was
deemed best to postpone the Cincinnati
meeting to o later date, and notice was
sent TO me 10 that effect which / failed
to receive. In view Of these facts / deem
II necessary to recall the notice for the

Kindly permit me to make a reply TO
an article appearing in a late Issue Of
your paper, entitled "A Lay Sermon on
Lawyers" written by one who slgned
himself "Observer."
We think Mr.. Observer Is in very
great error or else he has made won
derGully bold attempt 10 be unfair. We
do not wish to be understood In what we
have 10 say upon this subject that the
work OF body Of lawyers would not be
tinted with lawyer, the same as would
the work OF a body Of doctors, producers
or farmers bear the marks Of the proIes-
sion or calling Of that body. Indeed
we desire TO lay down the rule that men
everywhere and under all circumstances
do that which is 10 their own interest
This ls certainly the natural thing for all
men to do, and II Mr.. Observer had used
this natural and universal rule In the
preparation OF his article he would have
Ommitted many unfair and unjust ut
terances. Mr.. Observer says, "the fact
that practically none but lawyers are
selected TO make and administer the
laws, I think Is a sufficient explanation
for this condition Of affairs (Class iavOrlt-
ism.D II Mr.. Observer had used ma
tures rule in this matter we think he
would have found that II was money, not
lawyer that 10 responsible for "thls con-
dltion Of AFFAIRS" for "this condition Of
affairs" is one purely Of favorB TO the
dollar, and the lawyer Is as much op-
pressed thereby IS Is the doctor, the
farmer or the mechanic In other words
the lines Of "thls condition of affairs" are
drawn with the dollar on one side and
the individual on the other.
Mr.. Observer says again: "Of course
these men (lawyers) are not going to make
laws so plain and simple that ordinary
people can understand them, because II
they'did, a large portion Of the lawyers
would, like Othello, soon find their oCou-
patton gone" We would ask Mr.. OBJ
server to thus reflect a moment: Is II
not q fact that the laws Of your state and
nation are just as plain and oomprehen-
slve, yes more 90, than are the works OF
che medical fraternityS And yet you do
not find fault with the doctors because
they do not make their treaties $50 plain
and simple that ordinary people can un-
derstand them" and prescribe their own
medical treatment.
Is II not q fact, Mr.. Observer, that the
laws Of this country are as plain and
simple, and no more liable TO miscon-
Btruction OF confictions than is the bible
you wOrshipS And yet you do not Chlde
tho author Of that bible or the ministers
Of the gospel because II was not made 90
"plsin and simple that ordinary people
could understand H." or so plain % not
% leave room FOX a difference Of opinion,
out Of which more than $50 conflicting
denominations have sprung.

practice to degrade their profession, or

II SEEMS that General Booth has
secured the 100000 or $500 900,
which he estimated would be neces-
sary to commence his great scheme
OF relieving the $4,000 homeless
and starving poor of London. This
is an enormous sum for enc man to
raise and handle for any object
whatever, and evidently shows
that people of England have conf
dence in the man. in his ability and
in his plan to relieve the poor by
providing employment for them.
1t demonstrates more than that
that toe contributors believe the
plan is practicable, notwithstand-
ing the vigorous attacks which
have been made on 1T by Huxley,
Loeb and others. If with 100000
which is one tenth of what he call
ed for, he demonstrates that he
can provide employment and homes
for 1850 of the present poor of
London, or tenth of the total
number the chances are that he
wilt be furnished with the remain
ing 100000.
