THE DISREPUTABLE LAWYER.

THE DlSREPUTABLE LAWYER.
1t is TO be regretted that there can
be found in the ranks of our profes-
sion, as in all others, some who dis
grace it by practices in violation of
every rule OF ethics. good taste and
morality. | am glad to believe that
the instances are few. Amongst this
class one OF the most obnoxious speci-
mems is the lawyer who. forgetting
that one of the duties devolving upon
him is to promote kind feeling
amongst the people in the community
in which he resides. spares no effort
to encourage discord and strife that
litigation may follow to his gain. He
considers the practice of law as a
mercantile calling and he sells his
pickles through drummers fitted bv
nature and education for the business.
He roams the streets with q wild and
hungry spirit hunting up cases re-
gardless Of their morality and merit,
and always insists upon litigation.
Such practices generally degrade a
professional mans entire nature. He
is brutal and coarse in the trial of a
cause, tyrannical towards the weak,
cringing, fawning slave to those in
power He is bold enough to express
open contempt for virtue Such
lawyer, with two or three disreput-
able constables guided by kindred
spirit, is more to be dreaded in a CITY
or town than an Asiatic pestilence.
This Association in every possible
way should place it's seal of condem-
nation upon such practices and those
I employing them. The lawyer who
lives in such an atmosphere has
neither pride in his profession nor
any fraternal feeling for it's mem bers
lie must know that he is wronging
them together with the public and
this feeling produces antagonism.
AS he advances in years, if he con-
tlnues such course of professional
life, he becomes embittered He
, SCOTS at the noble and great. He
sneers at deeds Of humanity and de-
lights in the misfortune of his fellow
men. He meets with his inevitable
reward. He is Stunned by all and is
an object of universal disgust. When
he has passed the meridian of his life
and his steps are turned towards the
setting sun, no reflection from the
Eastern sky will light up his desolate
pathway, but in utter darkness and
alone he shall tread the journey of a
| wasted life to an inglorious end.

In the State Of Maryland We ars ago
a noted lawyer wrote the following
enigma:
Il am a word OF plural number.
A foe to peace and human sIumber,
Now, any word you chance to take
By adding S you plural make,
But if you add an s to this,
How strange the metamorphosis,
What was plural is plural now no more,
And that is sweet which bitter was be-
fore"
The word is cares, an S added to
which makes it caress.

EASY TO FIND

When you find aemedicine
that makes your regular food
taste good, when you find a
medicine that strengthens a
weak stomach-then you know
you're going to put some flesh
on.
SCOTS Emulsion does these
things. We recommend it
whenever the system needs
more flesh. If you are thin
and able to eat begin regular
doses. That's your part.
Scots Emulsion will do the
rest. Not flabby-but solid
flesh.
Welsend you little to try, If you like.

THE COURTS EXHAUSTED
The Applications For Pardon Strongly
Endorsed in Edgecombe.
SENTENCES WERE TWO YEARS IN JAIL
The Defendants Had Carried Their Cases to the
US. Supreme Court and For Months
the Application Has Been Be-
for the Governor.

Governor Aycock yesterday pardoned
G.. r. Michigan and j. P. Mallett of Tar
boro, who were convicted of "a con-
spiracy to defraud' and who were SEN
fenced to two years Imprisonment in jail,
The case has been pending in the courts
for a number of years and has been
fought through, the Supreme Court of
the United States. The application for
pardon has been pending before the Gov
ernor for months and he has given coun-
sci for both sides hearings. The evil
dence would fill volumes and the costs in
the case amount TO more than 1000 7
The application for pardon was fought
by DR.. Baker and others in Tarboro.
There was a considerable sentiment,
however, in favor of the pardon. At the
executive office =, was stated yesterday
that the application for pardon was en-
dorsed by all the justices of the peace in
Edgecombe save three. all the members
of the school committees. every member
of the Board of Education and the SUI
perntendent, nine members of the grand
jury, all of the jury that tried the ease
save, one, who is dead. three of the
County Commissioners. III of the county
officers, thirty-fve ex-county officers,
the sheriff, the Register of Deeds, the
Treasurer the Coroner and the member
of the Senate and representatives from
the county.
The case is now a noted one. having
started in the lower court in the State
and finally ended in the Supreme Court
Of the United States. In the criminal
court of the eastern district, fefore.
Judge Sutton, the defendants were con-
victed of conspiracy to defraud and
sentenced to two years imprisonment
each in Jail. When the case came up
for review before Judge Hoke, of the;
Superior Court, he reversed the decision
of the criminal court and ordered a new
trial. The Supreme Court of North Car
DINA then reversed Judge HokelsS decis-
ion and sustained Judge Sutton. Then,
the case was fought out in the Supreme
Court of the United States. that court
sustaining the decision of the Supreme,
Court of North Carolina.
Michigan and Malett were engaged
in business and were under obligations
to DR.. Baker. The obligation was in the
by the firm to certain points. The
prosecution claims that the goods were
shipped to fictitious persons, and that the
action was part of a scheme to defraud.
The defendants say the goods werel
shipped in order to realize money with
which to meet the note.

A PROGRESSIVE BUSINESS.

Mr. c. B. Ray, proprietor of the Wyatt
Harness Company, is making another
addition to his already large and spaci-
Gus building, and when completed will
give more than ten thousand square feet
of floor space for this modern and up
to-date establishment. With the COM
pletion of the new annex, together with
other extensive improvements recently
made by the proprietor, this building will
be one of the finest business houses in
the city, and the finest harness and car
riage repository south of Baltimore.
This modern building will be three
stories high and the first floor will be
used as a sa.esroom and office the sec
ond floor for the harness factory which
employs a large number of the most
skilled workmen and the third floor will
be used exclusively for buggies. car
riages, wagons, etc.
The hand made harness of this old
establishment is known throughout the
SouthA and needs no recommendation
where known. Mr.. Ray has clever and
popular travelling salesman in the person
of Mr.. Wiley Belts, who visits the
wholesale trade of this and adjoining
States, and the goods he represents
meet with popular favor everywhere.
Mr.. Ray is one of Raleigh's most clever
and progressive business men and richly
deserves the success with which he is
meeting and the confidence reDosed in
him by his numerous friends and pat
Tons.
