al honorable lawyer to manufsc- ture a defense for his client, but we have a strong suspicion that if all criminal lawyers who are guilty of ''putting up jobs" of this kind should be debarred from practicing in the courts of this state the ranks of the profession would be thinned perceptibIy in some localities. The Democrat does not mean by this statement to mako an insinuation against criminal lawyers as a class, for many of them are high-toned, hon orable gentlemen. We should not, however, regard it n very difficult task 10 find alleged lawyers who would resort to questionable meth ods to earn . fee and secure the acquittal of guilty criminal. A manufactured" defense is better than no defense at all, from a de- fendants point of view, and there are men who have earned a rcpu- tation for successful management in criminal cases because of their ability to make a defense where none really existed.-Arkansas Democrat.
