Savannah News: A bill to be
introduced in the next Congress to
put the life saving service on the
same footing as the army in at
least one important respect. The
bill will provide for the retirement
on half pay Of life savers who have
served a certain number of years,
or who have become disabled in
the service, and for pension TO
the families of those who lose their
lives in the performance Of their
duty. 1t will also provide for an
increase in the pay of the men. The
life saving service is one of vast
Importance. 1t has been Of almost
incalculable benefit to shipping,
saving every year probably hun
dreds of lives and hundreds of
thousands of dollars worth Of prop
erty. The brave men in the SER
vice deserve to be literally dealt
with.

CURRENT COMMENT.

Springfield Republican: Ingalls,
would rather succeed PETER, the
man who beat him, than Martin,
the man whose successor in the
United States senate is now to be
elected. But the people of Kansas
are beginning to talk Ingalls,, and
he will very likely be chosen at
the coming session Of the legisla
ture. His many slips Of the
tongue and alterations of the con-
science seem to have been forgot
ten.
Louisville Courier-Journal; An
expedition Of Kansas old soldiers
has started upon an invasion of
Mississippi, their purpose being
to seek homes in that state and es-
cape the ills of Kansas. The Cour-
ier-Journal bids all such men
welcome to the south. These Kan
sans say that they would have
come south long ago but for the
bitterness of the war. They will
find that such bitterness exists
chiefly in their Imagination.
There is more Of il in Kansas to-
day than in Mississippi.
Pittsburg Post: 1t is very likely
that the syndicate that took the
government loan will make a good
thing Of it. 1t is said offers are
now being made for the bonds at
ll9 and the price may 60 above
that and up to 1195. At that figure
the syndicate would stand to make
over million Of dollars. A popu-
lar loan could have been carried q.
Unfortunately there was no law
that made it practicable. There is
always a demand for government
bonds, in which to place trust
funds, in cases where interest be-
comes a secondary matter.
Philadelphia Record: When
political science shall have been
reduced to an exact science, and it's
principles can be demonstrated on
blackboard in a manner similar
to that used in illustrating the
basic principles Of logic, the time
will have arrived when the utili-
ty Of adding it to the curriculum
Of the public schools may be con-
sidered. At present political econo-
my, il not quite so nebulous as the
science Of meteOrology, is made up
IN almost equal parts OF science

Kansas City Times: Miss Fran
els Willard complains that women
do not read newspapers. Miss
Willard undoubtedly misjudges
her sex, for the ladies are great
readers of the newspapers. They
are well informed on local Incl

interest to the female sex and a
goodly number of them devour the
political columns, while all of them

CLIENTS MUST NOT BE CRANKY

An English case decided few
weeks ago is Of interest to lawyers in
this country, as indicating the limits
to which endurance need go on the
part of an attorney in dealing with
an unruly client, says the New York
Tribune. The case is one Of the first
tried before Lord Chief Justice Russell
Underwood, Son & Ripper, firm Of
solicitors, brought an action against a
client to obtain the sum of about
81, 500 for their services. One of the
defenseS was that the solicitors had
given up the case suddenly without
reason. On the first trial of the case
it was held that a solicitor might
throw up his retainer without stat
ing his reasons, if he gave timely no.
tice to his client. The court of ap-
peal held that a solicitor could not act
in such a way without good cause,
and the recent trial was held to deter
mine whether the solicitors We're justi-
fed in their action. 1t appeared that
the client constantly complained of
the manner in which the solicitors
were acting. On several occasions he
gave them the lie direct, and once he
told his counsel that every word the
solicitor had told him about the case
was untrue. The lord chief justice
said that there must be the utmost con-
tidence between a solicitor AMI a Client
and he left it for the jury to decide
whether the defendants conduct was
such that no reasonable, self-reSpect-
ing solicitor ought to be called upon
to continue to act for him. The jury
returned a verdict for the plaintiff on
all the points submitted. Lawyers in
this country often have to deal with
clients who are inclined to be critical
and they submit because they consider
themselves bound to continue in the
case which they have once begun. The
courts here would probably, however,
decide as in the English case, that
client who was too insolent might lose
his lawyer and yet be liable to pay
for the services which had been rem
dered in the case.

TRUSTS OF OLDEN TIMES.
MOnopolieS Granted by English Kings
Would Now Be Considered Small
Affairs.

Reprobated as the English trade
monopoly of the sixteenth century de-
serves to be, there was nothing under
handed about it, says the Toronto
Mail. 1t was given openly by the
sovereign to favorite, who sold it
for a great sum to a merchant. When
the sovereign himself took to selling
it to the highest bidder its evil effects
widened into something more than
mere eXtortion. The revenue it af-
forded enabled the king to get along
without summOning parliament, and
therefore to rule as he pleased. The
old mOnOpolieS were not the rich prizes
that are granted to the great trusts
Of these United States by a protective
tariff. The sugar trust, the ore trust
of the Lake Superior region, the coal
trust, the whisky trust, etc, would
consider the returns from royal pat
ent conveying a monopoly on candles,
for example. to be a paltry thing COM
pared with the splendid revenues a
protective tariff yields them in these
days. Not only dc the monopolies of
these United States deprive the people
Of many times a larger amount of
wealth than the old monopOlies did.
but they corrupt politics more. The
trusts are looked to as the banks of
the pOliticaI party in power, aud
are expected to furnish money to pur-
chase votes. They perceive it to be to
their interest to keep in power and in
humor the party that gave them a
high tariff. The mOnOpolies granted
under tariff are not openly conveyed.
as the old ones were. They are bar
gained for and transferred in secret
Bribery of the party by a contribution
to its election fund has to be supple
mented by personal bribery. The
United States stand this with a tame
ness that is extraordinary The peo-
pie have demanded, and their repre-
sentativeS have demanded, that the
trusts shall be swept away, and when
that demand is set at naught the peo-
pie are patient. The action Of the
trust senators would have caused a
mighy hubbub in some countries.
