Bill Before Wiscon-
sin Legislature.
PROSECUTING ATTY
Miss Davisson Of Nebraska
Has Been Successful.

A bill has been introduced in the
Wisconsin legislature to make divorces
easy. 1t provides that when, for any
reason, man and wife make formal de-
claration that they can no longer live
together in peace and happiness, and
when they shall agree between them
selves to separate and arrive at a sat
&sfactory division of property and chill
dren. and shall present this evidence of
their mutual agreements in court, the
court shall enter a judgment of
divorce.
The Oshkosh Northwestern will smile
at this suggestion for making divorces
easy. But, practically speaking, this is
Just what every divorce case amounts
30 at the present time, except that
both parties are put to great annoy
Gnce and expense, all for the benefit of
the lawyers. The divorce comes in the
end just the same, but attorneys and
court fees now eat up a large por-
ton OF family assets that might other
wise be divided between the parties.
Morally considered the measure is not
open to objection, for as a general rule,
no law will compel people to live to-
Rethef who do not wish to, and it
would be cruel if it did. When man
and wife can no longer live in peace and
are mutually agreed to separate, every
interest of the community, morally and
socially, is promoted by facilitating
their desires in this matter.

A LAWYER AT POKER,
Somebody Had Been Monkeying With the
Cards.

Cards.
Il don't play it and don't approve of
it, but recent poker story from Lam
sing reminds me of an incident there
few years ago. and with this pre-
Jude. Detroit railway man tells the
story to the Detroit Free Press:
1.-The scene was in the upper story of
the hotel, five men sitting in the game
and several looking on. Among q the
players was a lawyer of this city whose
name would be recognized throughout
the state. He had a cold deck on his
knee to be introduced when rich jack
pot was at stake. BY shutting the
cards in use and then making a delft
change before dealing, he would have
four aces. One Of the outsiders saw
the trap, slyly distracted the fixed deck
and substituted another When the
time came for the coup, the lawyer
made the change without detection
neglected to look at his cards the first
round, and made stiff raise as he
lifted his hand.
He let out a gasp, threw the cards
face up on the table and shouted: Cen
tlemen, | decline to have anything more
to do with the game. Somebody's been
monkeying with the cards!''

OKLAHOMA LANDS.
Status of War Veterans in the Terri
torV,

tory.
An interesting Oklahoma case was
among the decisions handed down by
the supreme court of the United States
at the opening of the February session.
Oscar II. Violet was sued by Calvin A.
Calhoun to establish the title of the
latter to certain land in Oklahoma upon
which Violet mad entered before the
territory, was thrown open to settle
ment at noon on April %, 1889. 1t was
contended in behelf of Violet, however,
that inasmuch as he was an honorably
discharged Union soldier of the war of
the rebellion the prohibition in the act
OF congress against taking up lands in
Oklahoma until the general opening of
the territory did not apply to him, the
statute providing that the rights of vet
Grams should not be abridged by reason
of its enactment. The territorial SUI
preme court would not adopt this view,
nor has the supreme court of the
United States adopted it. Both trfbu-
mails hold that while the distinctive
privileges of veterans in acquiring gov
eminent lands are to be maintained
after lawful settlement in Oklahoma,
they stood on the same footing as other
citizens in respect to the time when land
could be taken up there.

ADMISSION TO THE BAR.
A Bill Before the Illinois Legislature TO
Amend the Law.

We have received several letters crit
losing our criticism of the bill intro
duced in the state legislature amend
ing the law in relation to the admis-
sion of attorneys to practice. SAYS the
Chlcago Times Herald. They all en-
anate from parties interested in let
ing down the bars which the supreme
court two years since decided to put
up for the protection of the profess
sion from immaturity and illiteracy as
10 the law Some of our correspond
ents, whom We might suspect of per-
sonal bias, declare that we are "either
oenseiy ignorant or hopeessly biased"
In regard to the bill in question.
We are "hopelessly biased" against
any measure that tends to lower the
standard of admission to the practice
or the law. We are "densely ignorant"
OF any good reason for abrogating
the rules made by the supreme court
prescribing certain conditions which
must be conformed to before any per-
son snail be permitted to practice
The bill in question is nothing but a
cheap appeal to the legislature to over
rae the wise regulations of the su-
preme court. This move ia i'm the in
terest Of persons who began or saw
they began, the study of The law be-
1897. uieS III
me bill also carries a provision that
until Dec. 81, 1899 the supreme court
shall receive diplomas of regularly Or
ganlzed two-year term law schools and
grant licenses of admission +bareon
without examination or further add
In this the bill seeks to evade the rule
OF the supreme court requiring three
years actual study OF the law.
The legal profession would gain I'm
reputation and respect If the rules of
the supreme court in regard to study,
examinations and admission were made
more stringent than they are
Our critics should remember that To-
gislation to meet hard or special cases
generally results in making bad laws

WOMAN PROSECUTOR.
Miss Davisson's Successful Career in Me-
braska.

Miss Estelle Mae DAVIDSON, Nebras-
ka's only woman states attorney, is
just completing most successful term
as prosecuting attorney of Brown
county, says the Chicago Tribune, and
is now in the public eye to consider
able extent, owing to the fact that she
has followed the footsteps of the older
and wiser politicians in instituting a
contest to hold the office, Of which she
has been the incumbent for two years
past, for on the face of the returns in
the last election she was defeated by
one vote.
Miss Dayisson is ~ years of age. She
was born in Washington, Ia, Dec. a.
1871. For six years following 1880 she
was g. resident of SibIey, Ia, and in
1885 moved with her parents to Long
Pine, Neb., her present home. Three
years later she graduated from the high
school. She distinguished herself during
her school days by an individuality Pc
ouliarly>Aer own, and after graduating
made UP her mind that she would fol-
low some calling which would place her
on an equal footing in the worlds bat
tie with some of the opposite sex. Her
father, ]. S. Davisson, was a prominent
attorney, and in 1892 she entered her
fathers office as student. From Oc-
tober, 1894, until the spring of 1896, she
OF the state university of Nebraska, and
graduated therefrom with high lhonors.
In July, 1896, she was nominated for
the office of county attorney by the
fusion party. The county was a repub-
iican stronghold, but she was elected
over her opponent by eight votes.
Her incumbency of the office was
marked by faithful and Intelligent per-
formance of duty, and as a reward for
her services she was nominated a sec
ond time in the fall of 1898, but was de-
feated by an apparent majority of one
vote Miss Davisson is contesting the
election, upheld by the belief that when
woman can overcome a republican
majority of 116 votes in total vote of
81 she ought to have been defeated
1alrly by legal electors, which she
claims she was not The contest is ere
ating considerable interest all through
the state.

SUPREME COURT DECISIONS
Several Important Ones Affecting Rail-
roads.

The supreme court of the United
States reconvened after its usual winter
recess, and announced decisions in "a
cases. OF these, IA were affirmances
= reversals, 2 were disnissals for want
OF jurisdiction, l was the refusal of q
rehearing and l was an answer to a
specific question certified from the
court below. The most important af
nrmance was a decision unfolding the
const1tutionality of an Ohio statute re-
curing railroads to stop three trains
DAY at any station on the line having
a population of 5000 inhabitants. This
enactment was attacked on the ground
That 1t was an unauthorized interfer-
ence with Interstate commerce, and four
members of the court thought 1t was.
namely, Justices Brewer, Peckham,
Shiras and White. The prevailing opin-
ION the other way, in which five Judges
concurred, was written by Mr.. Justice
Harlan. Among the aff1rmances we also
observe an interesting case from this
circuit relating to the obligation of a
railroad company which takes goods
to be transported beyond the terminus
OF its own line. One Clayton sued the
Texas and Pacific Railway Company
Tor the loss of quantity of cotton en-
route for England. The cotton was
burned on wharf controlled by the
railroad where it had been placed for
transshipment to a steamer. Judge
wallace held that the cotton had never
been put under the control of the
steamship line by the railroad COM
pany, and hence that the latter re-
manned liable as an insurer. The SUI
preme court of the United States is of
the same opinion
