LAWYERS FEES.


who have SO vigorously and ably de-
Tended the indicted census enumerators
of that city have come out in card re-
fusing to longer carry the burden of the
complication without compensation. An
Interview with leading citizen repre-
sentS him as expressing surprise at the
attitude thus taken, wishing the dun
ming attorneys cordial good morning
and bidding the accused officials to be of
good cheer. because their defense will
be provided for without the necessity of
a dollar being wasted by them or any
one else Oh lawyers fees. 1t looks as
though the four would get no other pay
for what they have done done than the
experience and prominence their work
has given them. This will be slight
compensation to at least one or two of
them. whose capital in experience and
prominence is already large enough to
satisfy their immediate wants in this
direction.
Professional mems charges are things
which those who have to pay them have
much difficulty in regarding as very
sacred or very exact obligations. Doc
tors do not suffer as much in this way,
however, as lawyers. A doctors fees
for the ordinary consultation and adj
vice are very well settled by conven-
ton, and if he loses his 81 or So a visit
it will be because he has not the courage
to ask it at the time he renders the
service, or because he makes mistakes
in trusting people who are not worthy
of credit. But lawyers are constantly
in hot water about their fees, even with
clients of the utmost responsibility, be-
cause there is no well defined scale of
prices tor legal work, and because so
much of what lawyer has to do, al
though it uses his time, does not seem
entitled to any compensation to the
men who employ him.
1t takes a lawyer great many years
of study and waiting to equip himself
Tor his career, and his knowledge is his
stock in trade, which he has to sell. No
one has really any more right to ask
him his view on Il legal problem with
out paying for it than he has to take a
loaf of bread from the baker without
rendering its price. In point of fact,
however, the whole community relies
OH lawyers suggestions in important
crises, without more outlay than for a
social courtesy. Lawyers submit to
this because they form connections in
this way from which they ultimately
get lucrative work, just as they under
take cases wilh no expectation of fees
in the hope that the Publicity thus Sc
cured them will increase their clientage.
But lawyers have to live, and the effect
of this state of affairs is seen in the
prices which they exact when
they secure juicy victim who
has to hire them. Then they
exact all that the traffic will bear, great
~ to the clients discontinue and some
times to their own confusion and de-
feat. All this evil might be removed if
the bar should adopt a fee bill of uni
form prices and it were insisted Oh that
no legal services of any kind should be
rendered without corresponding
charge being made. If lawyers got pay
from all but the poor, as doctors do.
their fees might be lower, and specula-
tive law, the bane of new countries,
might go out of existence.

Two articles lately appearing In the DIS
PATCH have called tho writer's attention 10
tho noise made by our olectric-csrs.
Thera are usually two distinct noises
made by car. Ons-a Duzz or NUN IKE
that of o top OF srotary.fan-is due TO the
sneed at which the armature turns ana
cannot be stopped without radical
change in the motor. The other NOISE
and by far tho worst, is metallic ring.
and IL due TO the gearing. A similar NOISE
ocours when one removes the escapenont
f,o,n A clock and tho works run down
,anidlv. IL cannot be said to DO due TO
had gearing, for although old, worn gear Is
most noisy, still new, drst-eiass gear Will
make a noise Ut high speed.
i'a 1hora ara several remedies for this noise
IT, ,noat effective is to run the gears In
oil. Although this is very successfuiIy ap-
niied TO somo other systems, II Is not cas!y
annIicsble To tho Sprague. Another Is 70
heYa one gear with wooden cogs, ana sun

thesa last can be used on the Sprague sys-
.n,n The rawhide is probably the quieter.

LII uai In wet weather. No company unless

A WARNING.
Major DooIcy's Letter on tho silver Cues

To De Editor OF ire Dispdtch,
read with deep interest the opsn letter
of Major james II. Dooley, OF this city.
and addressed 70 Senator Daniel, upon the
silver question, which appeared IN the
DlsPATCa OF Sunday.
Major Doolsy has evidently brought to
bear upon this great question the most
laborious research and tho profoundest re-
Fiction OF HIS highly cultivated and 6ne
intellect. He has presented and discussed
the question in light that is entirely now
to me and / suppose to ninety -nine ono
hundredths Of the citizens Of the United
States. And 10 so doing he has invested
tho subject Of tree coinage OF
silver with far moro interest than II
has heretofore possessed by Demon
strating beyond pera9venture that by sn
act of Congress SO declaring. II can be msde
a legal tender for ell contracts heretofore or
hereafter specifically made payable ID gold
coin. This declaration, sustained by deoi-
sions OF the Supreme Court, gives value
and an importance to silver. which, am
sure, but few people before knew that it
possessed, and it must, therefore, give an
Impetus and growth to the Free-Ooinnge
party that will make IL irresistible In the
coming campaign.
1t Is not my intention 70 discuss this
question, but simply TO call more particu-
lar attention OF your readers to 1t, as many
NAV have refrsined from reading IL on 40
count of It's length. 49,,
In addition TO having greatly distin-
guished himself, Major Dooley deserves
the thanks of the whole country.
