This Dolliver says present law has
added little or nothing TO the security
of creditors" We'll. why should It? II
is time that debtors had some chance.
These very creditors cannot half OF the
time pay their own debts. Then he
continues. 1T has filled the courts css
the United States with an atmosphere
OF fraud and perjury" One would
think from such talk that an air Of alb
solute purity had hitherto prevailed in
these court rooms. -Four bankruptcy
laws have been enacted In this coun-
try. These have been repealed after
very short existences, by the creditor
interests in every case. In the one
case. that of 1867. large sums of money
were alleged 10 have been invested
among congressman where II would do
the most good, as i'm the case OF the In

There was no preliminary business
to come before the meeting and Presi-
dent Farnham introduced Daniel A.

He devoted some time to an interesting
discourse in which me showed many
reasons why the spciety should be made
prosperous by tho .membsrs. He told
of uses OF the society and concluded
by wishing that II might be foremost
in it's particular line.
President Farnham also spoke about
the good to be derived from the exist

That wasn't Hunts idea at all. Far
from II. He and his fellow architects in

A certain class OF lawyers are now
using legislatures In various states to
procure the passage OF laws by means
of which an unfair advantage can be
obtained over the people. The pro-
posed law, re-instating imprisonment
FOR DEBT for wage-earning debtors here,
which has passed the House with no
discussion, is an instance whereby "A
certain class obtains the enactment OF
statute enabling IT. to hart's, for SO
much money, another class. Just now
i'm the New York general assembly an
Infamous law was enacted by both
Houses and went TO Governor Roose-
Welt for his signature, lie vetoed the
bill and so it failed. In vetoing the
law. Governor Roosevelt fled his rea-
sons:
II withhold my signature from this
bill because in my judgment IL is thor
oughly vicious. IL provides that no set
tlement OF any lawsuit shall be Vahd
without the consent of the attorneys
or without an application to the court
upon notice to the attorneys. The code
now provides all necessary security
for an attorney, in that IL gives him
lien upon the cause OF action. This
bill would be a benefit chiefly 10 the
very lawyers whom the honorabls
members Of their profession least de-
sire TO see benefited--that is. to those
who bring suits for damages ON ac-
count OF accidents, and who wish TO
be I'm a position to mulct both their
own clients and the defendants in case
OF a settlement.
1T it's first draft the bill applied only
to negligence suits. Ae IL was passed.
il applies TO all suits. An unscrupu-
lous attorney might turn it TO his ad-
vantage by bringing a blackmailinS
suit at the eve of any great CONNER
cial or railroad consolidation when IL
would be I'm his power 10 hold up set
tlement, t,involving great sums Of money.
In short, the possibilities for fraud
which are afforded by this bin are so
numerous that It Is not entitled to any
consideration"
The Brooklyn Times discusses the
case in a leader under the caption.
Bills TO fatten shysters." 1t says:
THE bal was intended to make 1t i'm
possible for client to settle a law
suit without the full knowledge and
consent of his attorneys. The bill
should have been called a measure to
protect shysters in their efforts to get
business. Today there are SD many
lawyers and SO much competition in the
profession that clients are hunted up
and cases taken on contingency fees.
Many a man Is lured into the courts
against an imaginary enemy by skill
full lawyer. Under present crcum-
stances such man can come to his
senses and settle his difficulty IL he
thinks best. The Green bill, however
had it been signed by Governor Roose-
welt. would have made client abso-
lutely helpless in the hands of his at
