tiforrinr lawyers leaguing together to cheat
Justice" In other words. though the high
sst court may determine that the accused
has never committed any ofense at all, the
Suns writer thinks il would have been just
10 make the victim suffer ell the punish
ment that would have been his lot II ne had
been guilty man. Or in other words still.
that every man accused of crime should
be punished as though guilty, although
perfectly innocent, and that lawyers WHO
secure the innocent man exemption nom
punishment are "pettifoggers iesgned to-
gsther to cheat justice"
Absurd as the proposition Is when oriti-
caliy examined, it is not more absurd than
the customary denunciations OF the legal
fraternity. All of the institutions OK the
law are founded on common sense. and
there are good reasons for them ALL ana no
one of them has better -eason for IL thah
that very one, the absence OF which IN
Chilrs law the Suns writer thinks its
glory.
1t is tho glory of all countries deriving
their laws from the Anglo-Saxons that tho
citizen. earnestly believing in the righs OF
his side of a controversy, shall not be forced
to submit to the judgment Of tho first trihu-
nal which passes upon it. There Is necessa-
rily more or less of haste in the first nearing
of all cases and the danger OF popular
waves of feeling swerving the pendulum

Thus do our laws provide as far as human
wisdom can provide that no man shall sur
fer any injustice whatever, and thus 90
thew cultivate in the minds of the people
sentiments of love, venerstion and respect
for their laws.
In that same benignant spirit which tenn
pers justice with mercy, those same laws
say that if q man is accused and convicted
of a trihing ofense he may escape the pen
alty of imprisonment imposed by the first

turns out that he has been wrongly accused.
he will escape punishment which he should
never have suffered, but which the sun
thinks he should have suffered because he
was so unlucky as TO be falsely accused.
Chilrs laws, of which the Sun is 80 enam-
ored. come from the Roman civil law'which
knew little and cared less for the freedom
of the citizen. But that law for which the
Sun can find none but opprobious eplthets
came from our freedom-loving. glorious
Anglo-Saxon ancestry. which set the free
dom. liberty and rights Of the citizen above
every other condition; and may these rights
be forever preserved through the efforts
and agency of that noble profession whose
dearest aim is to maintain them in their

THE LAWYER IN OUR CIVILIZATION
Wa find tha following in the Baltimor

II
We find the following in the Baltimore
Sun:
What an awful fate is that of Senior Don
Talca. of Valparaiso, who kissed young
LADY on the plaza in January and was still
in isil for it in July. the senorita, whose
lips he had sought by surprise, prosecuted
him and no was condemned to sixty days
Imprisonment. He appealed. and there
being no pettifogging lawyers leagued TO
cheat Justice down there the laws SEN
tence WAS in effect enforced pending APP
peal. and the decision of the supreme trib-
unai finally added thirty days more to his
sentence.
1t will be hard to find any thirteen average
newspaper lines containing more to be GEN.
sured and condemned than what is contain
cd in the foregoing.
In thu first place the punishment inhict-
ed, which meets 80 entirely with the ap-
probation of the writer, is out of all proper
ton to the finding of the court touching the
gravity of the offense, and in cases of kiss
ing the offense is rarely all on..one side. The
Suns writer plainly belongs to the school
which Mr.. W. s. Gilbert's Mikado repre-
sents as prevailing in Japan, where flirting
is O capital otfense.
But it was not from this point Of view
that we proposed to remark on the para
graph. We took 1t up as containing one of
the customary cases of misjudging the legal
fraternity, which ignorant and prejudicsd
people are constantly bringing under notice.
The Suns writer thinks that whenever
man has been conyicted of n misdamaanor
in a lower court, unjustly as he thinks. and
he appeals from the sentence to q higher
court. if by the aid of his counsel he is able
to avert the penalty during the period be-
tween the conviction and the appellate
court determining whether an onense has
been committed or whether no ofsnss has
been committed, Q case has arisen Of pet.

The New York Commissioner of Labor,
Charles f. Peck, has presented report in
which it is made TO appear that the wages Of
labor generally have gone up in New York
since the passage of the Mckinley bill. The
recent disastrous and widespread strike In
Buffalo and the labor trouble at Homestead
and other places do not bear out this state
ment, for never since the world began have
men been known to strike against increased
wages. Still if the report of Commissioner
Peck, who is an nti-Cleveland man. is re-
liable. he does not show how the New York
laborer, even If he does receive a few more
dollars and cents. has either to pay double
prices for good. durable clothing, or be sat-
isfied with mean. shoddy stuff of protected
manufacture.
