LAwLEss LAWYERS.

The Kansas City Journal Of recent date gives publicity
to some remarkable facts and figures with reference to
damage suits in the courts Of Jackson county, Mo.
These facts and figures show, says the Journal that
much the greater part the proceedings begun in the
courts Of this county damage suits against the Metro
poitan Street Railway company. 1t is asserted with
apparently good reason that three Of the divisions Of the
circuit court could be abolished II people should quit
suing the Metropolitan There about 800 suits pend
ing against this company in Jackson county, Mo-, and
about 200 in Wyandotte county Kas the claims set up
IN them aggregate about 49, 100000 About IS per cent
of these suits are brought by people who they
poor persons within the meaning Of the law and the cost
Of the action therefore, under the laws Of Missouri must
be borne BY the county they lose Only about l5
cent Of the damage suits bought against the Metropolitan
are successful The people of Jackson county,
quenty have to pay the costs in very much the greater
part Of the damage suits brought against the Metropo
tan in thatcounty which annually aggregate many
thousands of dollars"
These cases are for the most part worked up by hungry
lawyers who have little legitimate practice to engage
their time and energies and who hope by Of trump
edup cases to extort enough backmail enough dam
age to pay them for their trouble whether their clients
get anything In many perhaps in most instances
these suits are brought direct violation of law The
law makes it an ofense for lawyer either directly or
indirectly to incite people to go to law. The common
law also makes it ofense for lawyer to bring suit
on condition that he wins he shall have share in the
proceeds The object Of these provisions is to prevent
the fomenting Of litigation
"The courts Of Jackson county know who these lawess
lawyers are says the Journal land SO do the members
of the Jackson County Bar Association 1t is disgrace
to the city and the county that they permitted year
after year to continue their dshonorab practices in the
very sactuary Of justice itself"
The theory Of the law that courts exist to protect
the legal rights Of the people Every lawyer is officer
of the court to which he has been admitted and bound
by oath to aid the courts in the performance Of duty
