My purpose was intent.

They're ever on the go,
And was going too, like wind,

Did | catch it? Well, think 50.
But my breath was nearly gone,
For the summer sun was SHINING,
And the weather was quite warIn.

And il you are not there Just on tine

And you are left behind.

THERE have been two Kentucky vice

THERE have been two Kentucky vice
presidents that are entitled to special
recognition. One was John G. Breckin-
ridge. His comely presence as presiding
officer of the senate has never been for
gotten. 1t was during his vice-presi-
dency that the change was made from
the old to the new (and presently senate
chamber. His Grafton on the men who
had occupied seats in the old senate
chamber will not be soon forgotten by
those who were fortunate enough to hear
it. John G. Breckinridge possessed
grace Of person and power OF eloquence
which few who have ever fell under it's
sway will soon forget. The Hon. Adlai
E. Stevenson is gifted with many of the
characteristics of his gifted Kentucky
predecessor, while he is blessed with
statesmanlike equipment very largely
in excess OF his accomplished COM
patriot. Rarely is it accorded to people
of exceptional intellectual gifts to come
within any distance of either OF these
distinguished Kentuckians.

berry the general run of charges is &C
largely in excess of what ii should be
that the serious attention of the law.
making branch OF the government must
soon take some cognizance of the matter
and put some limitations upon q prac
tice which is bringing reproaeh to the
name of the legal profession.
The immense increase of technicalitfes
in the Interpretation of the law has
made it an easy matter for cunning
robbers, under the guise of attorneys,
to delay and hinder the plainest cas- see
until it is almost certainty that Justice
is perverted, and the blood sucked out
of the litigant until he can stand no
more.
1t is in the great mass OF probate
business, which is worked so quietly
that the details but seldom see the
light, that the greatest crimes OF this
nature are committed. So great had
this abuse become in the public admin
istration of estates that the legislature
was forced to step in and rectify and
limit some OF the powers exercised. But
there is vast field yet to explore.
On every hand the gross abuses in
common practice stand out so plainly
that every man of ordinary intelligence
knows that they do exist. The system
of charges for the litigant in Los Angeles
is legalized robbery in many instances,
and illegalized gall in others.

THE NICARAGUA CANAL.
WORK NOT ENTIRELY susPENDED
ON THE BIG DITCH.
President Warner Miller, Explains the
State of Affairs-A Meeting OF tho
Canal Company to Devise
Ways and Means.

New York, July 14.-The report that
the Nicaragua Canal Construction COM
pany has stopped all work on the Mica
ragua canal on account OF lack of funds,
was officially denied this morning by
ex-senator Warner Miller, president of
the company. "We have not stopped
work entirely" said Miller, "although,
OF course, we have had to lessen the
amount of work in times of
financial stringency. Every one has
TO cut his coat according to his
cloth. Work is now going on on the
.Dreakwater at the entrance to 0reytown
harbor, and on the harbor. Besides
that we have large number of men
looking after our valuable machinery.
1t is not truesthe company's securities
are not bought. Persons have been
buying them all along, and are doing 90
yet. As for the report that there is any
internal dissention in the company,
that ia untrue. We had to stop work
to considerable extent at the
time of the revolution in Nicaragua.
Our boats were seized. These boats
were the only means of transportation
up the river. We expect this will soon
be settled in a satisfactory manner; !;
then, when the money situation be-
comes little easier, we expect to 20
ahead with the work at full blast. A
little more than $4,000, 900 has already
been expended by the company"
The board of directors of the Nicara-
gHa Canal company held meeting to-
day for plans to devise means to raise
money. General Manager Taylor pre-.
sented a plan. among the features of
which is the issue and marketing of
$50, ,000, 900 bonds, the estimated cost of
the canal to fixed at $56, ,000, poo A.
present prices and methods allow, the
difference between the newly estimated
cost and S5,000,000 bonds is to be
used for the payment Of in
terest during construction. Active
propaganda is to be established
all over the country as preliminary to
the placing of the bonds on the market.
The money to be obtained from the first
subscription is to be at once employed
in active work on the line of the canal.
If the amount of the first subscription is
satisfactory, the bonds will be offered at
95; ii unsatisfactory, at 92. The amount
of the bonds sold in the second three
months should not be less than SO, ,000,-
coo nor more than $20,0O0,0 900. "A COM
mittee will consider the plan further.

The Reams Extradision Case.

VERONA, B. c., July 14.-The case OF
Rev. A. r. Reams comes up in the su-
preme court tomorrow, the defense hav-
ing appealed from the judgment of JUS
tice Drake ordering him extradited. The
defense claims that the committal OF
Reems was illegal, because it was not
proved that abduction was a crime
according to the laws OF California. The
prosecution will rely upon the extradi.
ton act, which says that a criminal may
be extradited for any offense which
would be considered an offense if com.
mitted in Canada.

TIE ILLS THE LITIGANT is OBLIGED
TO BEAR

The cost OF legal process in this state
is not one of the least interesting sub
jects to which attention can be directed.
To those who have experienced the
luxury of litigation it leaves lingering
touch of pain suggestive of the gouging
removal of refractory tooth.
1t was Iago who ingeniously proposed
q sentiment to credulous ears that the
great desideratum was to put money in
the purse, by any means, so that the
replenishment went bravely on.
Iago had the making of great lawyer,
and not drawing too violently upon the
Imagination it can be mildly remarked
that the long list of lawyers, great and
small. has been obviously following the
memory of man runreth not to the
contrary.
10 requires but a cursory acquain-
tance with the courts of this state, par
ticularly, to acquire many modern in
stances OF the uncomfortable rapacity
with which the litigapt is made to shell
out.
1t was not long since thorough ex-
pose of the charges of attorneys in pro-
bate matters in San Francisco was made.
The revelations there were almost be-
yond belief. Princely estates were
swallowed up as by tidal wave, and
the most startling feature of the whole
course of the settlement of estates for
years was the absolute failure OF legal
reliaf against the legaazed robbery that
was carried on, even by attorneys whose
respectability covered them as charity
is said to do multitude of sins.
The same state of s!fairs exists in Los
Angeles. From the time htigant ap-
plies for advice to the time his attorney
draws down from the county clerk the
cost of filing his preliminary papers. the
law piles up one charge after another
until the word justice begins to pail in
the utterance.
Ehe charges fixed by law have one ad-
vantage-they are fixed, and one who
takes the trouble or has a mind clear
enough to grasp the heintricate system can
tell what they will b..
But the uncertain quantity in the
equation is the charge for professional
service. This varies according to what
is popularly termed the conscience of
the lawyer, but which translated into
the vernacular is his gall.
There are very few checks upon the
enlarged appreciation OF the value of
services put upon them by attorneys.
1t varies from the basis of putting on all
the traffic will bear to the absorption of
the entire belonging, OF the unfortunate
litigant.
To be sure, judgeu do scale down the
fees in come cases, and more in other
states than in California, but there ia a
camaraderie amongst the members of
the legal profession which makes them
stand shoulder to shoulder upon all
questions Of finance.
It is said that recently an attorney de.
Tended poor devil, who CHANGED to
have some remnants of real property.
1t was necessary to secure some ready
cash, and mortgage was placed, which
very readily became blanket docu-
ment, and the cost OF tbs defense ab-
Horbed the entire property.
While this appears little short Of rob-

A jail Breaker at LIyermore.

Sawyer. who recently took three shots
at his wife here, broke Jail thisImorning
about 2 o'clock. A night watchman
heard noise about the Jail and went over
to make an investigation. He found
that the door had been ,pried open by
means of an iron bar that had been de-
tached from one Of the inside doors and
that the prisoner had just made his
escape. He searched the premises care
fully for some time, but was unable to
find any trace OF him. He then notified
the constable and town marshal who
also joined in the search, but up to
O'Clock this afternoon they had not cap.
tured him. The off ,ials in all the sur.
rounding counties have been notified
and it Is thought that he will coon be
caught. His preliminary examination
was begun here Wednesday and was to

ANY one who has any doubt of the
popularity of Gen. Stevenson in Los An
geles county should close his mind and
ears to the spectacle that he encountered
yesterday. The patriotic vice-president
knows no limits to his popularity. All
through this broad land, wherever q
Democrat is encountered, an enthusias-
tic sdmirer of Adlai E. Stevenson is to

enthusiastic acclaim. Eclipse is first
