Or any other reason why"

THE TOAsTs.
The presidents address was deliv-
cred by the retiring president, Judge
j. G. Sutherland, in the absence of the
recently elected president, Judge Bore
man.
The Bar association, the judge said,
had it's serious moments as we'll as It's
funny moments; the present was one OF
the latter and was intended to promote
the feeling of fraternity among law
yers. The last annual dinner had been
eminently successful in that particular
and encouraged by that special efforts
had been put forth to make the pres
ent occasion more notable than any
similar one which had preceded it. The
president concluded his remarks by
calling on Chief Justice Zane to re-
spond to the toast of The Bench
CHIEF JUSTICE ZANE.
Judge Zane said he felt encouraged
by the fact that Sutherland on dam
ages sat on his left and Kinney on ir-
rigation on his right. A great deal of
irrigation seemed to be going on in
the night which was probably explain
ed by the fact that fluids always ran
down an incline. Judges ought to
be more learned that witty; more rev.
erend than plausible and more advised
than confident. Above all things in
tegrity is their portion and proper Vir-
tue" said Lord Bacon. The speaker
in a facetious way said that the mem
bers of the present bench in the state
of Utah had all these qualifications and
a good many more.
I'll
the author of these lines, Lord Bacon,
was the greatest judge who ever sat on
any bench in any land, but
even he sometimes swerved from
his own motto that above
all things 'integnitie Is the portion
and proper virtue of the judge" in
order to please the king. He might be
excused in some measure for this on
account of the customs of the times in
which he lived AS a rule, to which
there have been very few exceptions,
the English judiciary stood up for the
rights of the people and by the purity
and incorruptibility of the judiciary
the rights of the Englishman were re-
spected not only in his own land, but
wherever he might roam throughout
the world. The American judiciary
had at the outset adopted the princi-
pies which England had struggled to
establish for hundreds Of years. and
for which Frenchmen had waded
through a sea of blood. We have
wonderful judiciary in America, and
one which was an honor to the land.
(Applause.)
On January the president of the
United States launched the state of
Utah on the waters. and the most inn
porbant part of the new state was the
Judiciary. The judiciary was immor-
tai: the present members would step
aside, others would take their places,
the judiciary would go on forever.
The state of Utah in thousand years
from now would be one of the most
glorious in this the great republic.
Judge zane's address was received
with great applause, and at the conclu-
sion the entire assembly sang Amer
lea
THE ADVOCATE.
Judge Lochrie was called on by
| Toastmaker Sutherland to respond to
the boast of 1.-THE Advocate" and in a
few we'll chosen phrases defined the
difference between the advocate and
the lawyer So long as we had advo-
Gates who would represent the right
we would have a free and representa-
tive government in this country.
"Defaute de bon serjant feb B. per-
DIRE SEE denniers,' (the want of a good
lawyer made B. lose his money!.
