WHARTON AND His METHODS.
Again Discussed By the Local Bar
Association.
The Investigating Committee Has an
Ugly Job on Hand-Action
Again Postponed.

The Sacramento Bar Association held
meeting on Saturday, President A. L..
Hart presiding, and S. Luke Howe act
ing as Secretary.
An amendment to the bylaws was
adopted providing for the election of an
Assistant Secretary. and also that the
election of officers be held annually, in
stead of semi-annually. The election of
an Assistant Secretary was postponed
one week.
1t was decided to furnish Y. F. Whar-
ton with copy of the charges preferred
against MIN for unprofessional conduct,
he to pay for the printing of the copy.
w. 2. Harlow, of the committee ap-
pointed to present the charges against
Wharton to the Superior Court, reported
that the committee would probably be
ready to commence proceedings against
the accused some time this week. 1.-THE
more we look into the matter" said Har-
low, ''the less we like it.''
General Hart suggested that the matter
be brought TO an issue with all posi- BILE
speed.
Mr. Harlow said that ss there were two
affairs IN which Wharton WAS concerned,
the committee wanted to know if it
should take up one or both of them.
General Hart said he could see no legal
reason why the committee could not take
up both matters. He said that as Whar-
ton had committed a grave otfense by
subscribing to a false affidavit, thereby
imposing on the court, the whole matter
ought TO be presented 10 the District At
torney.
&. IL. Oatman said that as Wharton had
no authority to take the affidavit, his act
IN that respect was an idle one.
General Hart said the fact that man
had mistaken his power, knowing at the
time that 1t was improper and false, he
would not be permitted to assert his in
ability TO take the affidavit
The association then adjourned until
next Saturday afternoon al o'clock.
