Birmingham state herald., 1896-04-26

a case is more likely to be tried on its merits, the function of lawyer being to aid in the administration of justice. Condert's Tireless Courtesy.
 Frederic Kene Coudert, who is good second to MT. Choate in legal greatness, is most effective in cases where intri- cate legal knowledge is required. He has the faculty of presenting the driest and most prosaic facts in an interesting way and can give an inviting colorins to a statement which cold figures are uppermost.
 Mir. Coudert, while of French descent, Is the least theatrical of all the big law yers. His gestures are few. In jury cases he wins favor at once by his cour- teous treatment of his opponents. He al- ways conveys the idea that he rather pities the other side because of the weak ness of their case and would like to help them make as good a showing as possi- ble. He does this so delicately that each juror thinks he has made an important and unusual discovery.
 Mir Coudert never badgers witness. He is so gentle and obliging that the Wit ness feels in honor bound to reciprocate te and says very nearly what the astute lawyer wishes to go on record. In the summing up MT. Coudert is more em-
 phatic and brings out all the strong points of his case with startling force. He is a fluent tallSer with quaint fund | upon every subject from unique point of view, Gen. Benjamin F. Tracy likes to get hold of a sensational case to show how he can tangle up witnesses. In divorce suits he is at his best, and by artfully inducing witnesses to contradict one an-
 other he manages to make the case of the | other side appear very weak. He can | mako a most pa ethetic appeal to the jury, and If his client happens to be woman he always succeeds in making her cry al | the proper moment.
 Works on the Jury.
 It is worth going a long way to see Col. ! Bob Ingersoll try a case. He has tre- | mendous amount of energy and voice | that fills the court room with forceful | oratory. He likes to get the desperate l side of case for the mere pleasure oi l making much out of little. He grasps
 the smallest and most insignificant item | in favor of his client and by carefully

Under this title, which has since become

weekly passed into the hands of Urson ID. Mum

Beach died, and the business was converted
into II corporation under the laws of New
York. The new owners were young, and Mr.
Porter for while continued to be editor. The
first issue after the change, as may be now
seen from IA fac-simile reproduction, had as its
first item song, to the tune OF "Old Dan

change was made. The proprietors became

WASHINGTON, August 3.-Bryan'S chance.

done ut that convention will either ieOpardiZe
Bryans election or play any important part i'll
the campaign. The Democratic mana gers
started, IL will be plain to everybody that it
must he either Bryan or Mckinley and that
fully So per cent. of the Democrats will vote
for Bryan, and that for every one OF the per
cent. who will vote for Mckinley or u gold
Democrat, or not vote ut all, Bryan will get
the votes of at least ten silver Republicans.
The fact that Iammany Hall has announced
its intention to support Bryan and ScwalI, not
outstanding the extraordinary efforts made
by prominent gold Democrats TO get it to with
hold action until the New York State COnYen-
tion met in Scptemb Der, is straw showing the
drift of Democratic sentiment In the strong
hold of gold which will have much effect in
Bryan's favor elsewhere.

INCREASE OF THE SILVER SENTI-
MENT

Regardless of individual opinions or
prejudices, it must be admitted that
the silver sentiment has made won
derful strides throughout the country
where has this been more rapid and
remarkable than here in the East, and
even in our own State and County.
The feeling has been gradually
growing on the people, regardless of
political parties that something is
radically wrong with our financial and
monetary policy. Other nations are
prospecting while We are getting more
and more in debt. Many of these
who say they are for silver can give
no sound reasons why they are so in
clined, and in fact they are free to
say that they do not understand the
question. Yet there are men and
honest and able men who have stud
led this question, and whose judg-
ment they are willing to accept as
sound.
Besides, they say, we have the gold
standard now, we are in debt and
getting deeper every year. We want
change. We are willing to try sill
YER 1t may be cure for the hard
times. ~Many say it will be and those
who favor the financial policy now in
force have nothing better to offer us
than what we have at present.
Is this Il sound argument? Is it
logical? Perhaps it would not stand
the rigid test of logicians, but there is
certainly some hard common sense
connected with it and that is what the
logic of the average voter amounts to,
at any rate. If this were not the case
our government would be much more
Vacillating and unstable than it is.
Monopolists may pull one way, and
office seekers another, but it is the
hard, everyday common sense of the
average voter that is the balance
wheel and safeguard of the whole
machinery of our government.
There will be no way of guaging
the extent to which silver has taken
hold on the people until the ballots
are counted on election day. Many
u laborOr who cannot talk silver with
out jeopardizing his bread and butter
is lying low, but when November
comes and he gets an opportunity to
talk through his Australian ballot, he
will be heard in no uncertain tones.
In all probability there are far more
voters who have heretofore been Re-
publicans and who will vote for Bryan
and silver than there are Democrats
who will support Mckinley.
