Limit of a Lawyers Duty.

 A lawyer has no right to do anything as a lawyer which he would scorn to do as a man and a citizen. His obligation to the court and to the public is and must be paramount to his obligation to his client. Unless this is recognized the lawyers would be the most dangerous class in the community.

No Fear of Union Labor Control.

The time has passed when any fear may have been entertained mat labor unions would control this country The latent sense and courage of the people has been brought out and very few there are now but fully realize that joining a labor union does not make skilled artisan out of a botch, a wise man out of a fool, a saint out of a sinner or an honest man out of a Scoundrel.

Gov. Jennings of Florida Makes At
tack on Senator TalinferrO.
Tallahassee, Fla. IAN. 1S.-Gov. w.
S. Jennings yesterday threw bomb
shell into the contest for the United
States senatorship from Florida by
making public a very vigorous letter
which he addressed to Senator Talia-
ferro some days ago, in which he makes
a sweeping attack on Mr.. Taliaferros
senatorial record, and challenges him
TO public discussion of matters in
volved. The Governor is direct and
concise, giving book and page OF OH
cial records for each statement made,
and presenting many facts of record,
which Senator TaliaferrO will have TO
refute in order to make good claims ne
has asserted during the campaign.
The party candidate for senator VIII
be selected in Democratic primary
election this spring, and the aspirants
are Senator Taliaferro Gov. Jennings
Hon. John N. c. Stockton of Jackson
willie. and former Senator Wilkinson
Call. The race has been a pretty hot
one for several months. and it can
hardly be doubted that this letter OF
the Governors will create something
of a sensation. and be conspicuous
factor in the contest from now on, since
Gov. Jennings is regarded as one Oh
the leaders in the race.

MINE WORKERS MEET
IN ANNUAL CONVENTION.

Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 1S.-The fif-
Mine Workers of America began in
Tomlinson Hall to-day. with approx
mately 1000 delegates present.
In his annual report President Mitch
ell urges that the convention be mod
crate in speech and conservative i'm ac-
ton. The report outlines the situation
in each district. OF the anthracite field
it saws:
at is a pleasure to report that since
the close of the anthracite strike, the
relations of operators and miners have
grown steadily more cordial. With
very few exceptions the award of the
commission has been rigidly observed
and an era of comparative peace and
contentment has reigned in that terri
tory"
Mr.. Mitchell refers to the extension
of the conference method of adjust
ing wage differences in West Virginia,
Missouri. Kansas. Arkansas and the
Indian Territory, which, he says, prom
ises a long period of industrial peace
to miners and operators. The Alabama
settlement by the board OF arbitration
is mentioned with satisfaction.
President Mitchell insists upon the
universal adoption of the run of mine
basis. The increase in machine min
ing is shown to have been from IA per
cent. Of the total production in 1896 to
90 per cent. in 1902, the report claiming
that in districts i'm which the differen-
IL t,af. I.a., II,
creased disproportionately. He urges
that readjustment OF the differential
be insisted upon.
Vigorous support of the anti-injunc-
ton bill and the eight-hour bill now in
Congress Is urged, and of federal in
functions. he says:
1.-THE evils which have grown out
of the indiscriminate issuance of fed
eral iniunctions, the insiduous attempts
on the part of some of our federal
Judges to deprive us of right of trial
by jury, are so well known to the
trade unionists of our country as to
require no elaboration in this report"
President Mitchell voices his earnest
support of legislation prohibiting boys
under 16 from working in the mines.
Vice President T. l.. Lewis deliv-
cred his annual report reviewing the
work of organization.
The Vice President announced that
$4,000 paid to Mr.. Farley and him for

AMENDMENTS To
The CANAL TREATY
THREE HAVE BEEN ADOPTED.
SENATE COMMITTEE WILL REPORT
IT FAVORABLY.

Senator Morgan Was the Only Dem
Ocratic Member of the Committee
Who Voted Against the Treaty.
Money Was the Only other DEM
Ocratic Member Present-Whnt
the Treaty Amendments Provide.
Advantages for United states.
Washington, Jan. 1S.-The Senate
Committee on Foreign Relations to-
day directed Senator Cullom to report
the Panama treaty with three amend
ments. The Republican members vot-
ed for the treaty, but only two DEM
ocrats Morgan and Money, were pres
ent The former voted against the
treaty, and Mr.. Money stated that he
had not yet had time to consider it,
as it was the first meeting of the COM
mittee he had been able to attend.
The three amendments relate to san
itation, limitation of cities and con-
troll of harbors. The United States,
by the amendment relating to SANTA
ton, are granted more direct power
in all sanitary regulations.
The amendment concerning the linn
itation OF the cities more specifically
defines what are the limits of Panama
and Colon in relation to the canal
zone.
The harbor amendment gives the
United States control of the harbors
for the purposes of improvements.
To-day when the committee met the
absentees were senators Foraker, Ba-
con, Clark (Montana), Clark (Wyom-
ing), and McCreary. All the amend
ments were subject to final action,
though one or two had been tentative
ly agreed to. After they had been in
corporated in the treaty to-day Sen
ator Morgan moved to strike out Ar
ticle % of the treaty, which provides
for the completion of negotiations
with the New Panama Canal Company
for their rights and concessions on
the isthmus. Senator Lodge insisted
that this was not a pending amend
ment under the resolution adopted
Saturday, and it was ruled out of
order.
An amendment had been prepared by
Senators Bacon and Foraker relating
to appeals to United States courts in
certain cases arising in the canal
zcne. This was voted down. Senator
Morgan protested against this action,
saying that the amendment should not
be acted upon in the absence of the
Senators who had offered it. Protest
also was made by the minority against
the shutting off of opportunity to vote
upon the amendment striking out Ar
ticle %.
Majority members of the committee
said that for two weeks the treaty
had been under discussion, and they
felt that ample time had been given
to it's consideration.

MAUD GRANTED DIVORCE.

London, Jan. 1S.-Justice Jeune, in
the divorce division of the High Court
of Justice to-day granted Mai Walter
De Saumarez Maud a divorce from
his wife, on the ground that her mar
riage to Daniel r. Hanna of Cleve-
land o., was bigamous. The Mauds
were married at New York April 8,
1897. While Maud was fighting in
South Africa, his wife Obtained a di-
vorce from him in America and in
February, 1900 married Mr.. Hanna.
Cleveland o., Jan. 1S.-When shown
the cablegram announcing the decision
Of the London court to-day. Dan r.
Hanna declared it was mere tech
nicality.
S. H. Holding, Mr. Hannas attor-
ney, referring to the subject, said:
Under English law. the divorce
granted in Ohio did not annul the dow
err rights Of Mrs. Maud, and hence
Mai. Maud was compelled to resort to
English tribunals to secure absolute
freedom to deal with his property. The
necessary showing to be made under
English law has set up the divorce
granted in this country, and the remar-
rage to Mr.. Hanna as a ground of d.
vorce, as English courts do not recog-
nize American divorces"

POSTOFFICE AND CANAL
DISCUSSED BY SENATORS.
German and Hale in COllOquy
About the Investigations

About the InYeSU1Eat1OnS.
Washington, Jan. 1S.-The Postoffice
inquiry resolution and the Panama
canal question divided the attention
of the Senate to-day. The first half
of the session was given to the in
quiry, and Messrs. Hale and German
were the speakers.
Mr.. Hale made a plea for the refer
ence of all the resolutions looking to
an investigation to the Committee on
Postoffices, and Mr.. German repeated
his assurance that he would be salts
fed with that disposal of the question.
The question went over until to-mor-
row, with the understanding that after
"a few more speeches the resolution
would be allowed to go to the COM
mittee.
The discussion of the Panama canal
question was confined to the continual
ton of Mr.. Teller's argument, that the
course of the United States in the re-
cent revolt of Panama was contrary
to International law and sound morals.
Mr.. Hale said a number of Demo-
cratic senators had been disturbed
Mr. Bacon, of Georgia by the appari-
ton of Perry Heath in the Postoffice
scandals, and Mr.. German, said Mr..
Hale, naturally looks upon himself
in the role of prosecutor of the Repub-
lcan party for all the delinquinces in
the investigation.
Mr.. German said 1t had been far
from his purpose to become a public
prosecutor. What he had uttered on
the subject, he said, was to bring out
the fact that the investigation was in
complete and ought to go further and
that it could do no harm to have the
work reviewed by persons not con-
nected~ with the administration IF
there are further frauds in the depart
ment we ought to have light on Them"
he said.
Mr.. Clay asked Mr.. Hale if he be-
lieved If all the guilty persons i'm ,the
Postoffice Department had been ex-
posed, indicted, punished or will be
punished through the investigation
conducted by the department.
MIR. Hale replied that he could not
say the full results had been reached,
but that the department had been
committed to the investigation, and he
repealed that never in the history of
the country had there been an investi-
CATION so relentless.
Mr.. German responded to Mr.. Hale.
saying that he could agree with him in
most things, but that concerning con-
gressional Investigations, he believed
that much good could be accomplished
if only in detecting the flaws in the
laws which permit such frauds as
those which have been disclosed in the
Postoffice Department. He said that
the party in power must be ready to
take the credit or the blame for all
that transpired in governmental af-
fairs. THE Republicans are taking
the credit for the exposures in the
Postoff1ce Department" he said. land
versed we would do the same thing"

without ReprOnChes.
Washington, Jan. 1S.-The House de-
voted a brief session to-day to District
of Columbia business.
While i'm Committee of the Whole on
bill the postofice scandal was dis
cussed, Hr. Bartlett of Georgia intro
ducing a letter from NJ. w. Louis, who
felt aggrieved at certain statements in
the Bristow report. Mr.. Bartlett stat
ed previous to its reading that he had
advised Mr.. Bristow of the nature of
the letter, and that Mr. Bristow had
stated to him that his father and son
had been regularly appointed. The
letter written by Mr.. Louis protests
against statements in the Bristow
postotlice report, and among other
things says
Mr.. Bristow himself injected into
the classified service without examna-
ton more than thirty persons some of
them postotlice inspectors employed i'm
this very investigation, and among
them his own father, who was APP
pointed as a $500 laborer on March 5,
1901, charged to the Sixth Congresson-
al District of Kentucky, and who now
draws 81 500 a year as a postoffice in
and also his own son, who during his
school vacation, drew a salary at the
rate of 1920 "A year in the postofiice at
Washington.
1T is not amiss to state that even
now Mr.. Brstow's father is not per-
forming inspectors duties, and that
the SON performed no work at all to
warrant the payment of a salary"
Following the reading Of the letter,
Mr.. Cowherd (DemocraD of Missouri.
said. 1T seems to me that the point
is that Louis was appointed on this
particular and precise day, the 18th of
April, in order that he might be at the
head of the division of supplies on the
9th day of May when a contract was
to be let, and that by reason of his
appointment in this irregular way. he
got into a position where he could let
contracts improperly to the loss of the
government to at least some $4,000 and
probably very much more"
The House adjourned until to-mor-
row.
