cheap that it is almost impossible to
realize that once they were a costly as

ancestors. although the earliest men,

Something in a Name.

Horace Hawes, a well-known lawyer
in his day and the author of the con-
solidation act which was the funda-
mental law of San Francisco for over
thirty years, was famous for his biting
sarcasm when aroused to use it. An
occasion came one time when he was
engaged in a controversy over case
in court where the late E. D. Sawyer
at one time a District Judge, was the
opposing counsel in the case.
: Judge Sawyer interrupted Hawes
argument with, "Oh, pshaw. There is
nothing in a name" This sneer was
interjected at a time when Horace
Hawes was quoting from some cele-
brated author on the law of evidence,
of which he wished the court to take
judicial notice.
Whats that?" CALCULATED Hawes.
Nothing in name; no such thing,
sir; there is everything in a name. We
have an example Of the value of
name right here in this city. We have
one eminent lawyer on the bench here
named Lorenzo Sawyer, whose deci-
sions are quoted and respected all over
the United States for their soundness,
and out of respect to this name the
people of this city have elevated four
taries public of three more; none Of
whom know sufficient law to get a
