strike out section one because he
claimed that the Tantalus reservat ton
was in the interest of a certain single
property owner whose land was not
included in the reserve and to whom
Inc Dill would give a monopoly in Tan

belongs to w. r. Castle
McCandless, at the suggestion of
Dickey, said that he only meant his
motion to go to the striking out of
subdivision one of section l.
D1ckey defended the bill. and Bishop
said that he wanted to reserve all the
public lands on Tantalus He wanted
1t to be so that when the people went
up the government road on Tantalus
they could put their feet off that road
and not have to put them on private
property. He offered an amendment
to the section including in the park
reservation practically all of the public
land remaining on TantaIus.
Dowsett did not favor the Bishop
ldea. 1t might have been fair to re-
serve all the land on Tantalus il none
of it had ever been sold. He did not
believe that it was fair to shut out
everybody else because Mr.. Castle and
Mr.. Schmidt and Mr.. Cooper and a
favored few had secured homes up
there.

policy of setting apart any public land

vested in the Board of Forestry to set
aside forestry reserves. and that should
cover the whole case.

and should have no difficulty in get
ting at the facts. Whether the facts
when found are sufficient to warrant
disbarment is of course matter of law,
and in any case is in the province of
the court.
Your Committee would be glad to see
an appeal allowed from the Supreme
Court of the Territory to the Supreme
Court of the United States in such
cases, but this could only be accom-
plished by an Act of Congress.
There is no objection to an increase
of admission fee from $1,000 to $500
There seems to be no good reason to
prescribe new forms of oath and Ii
cense.
Sections 1897 to 1905 which the bill
seeks to repeal. Sections 1898 to 1901
inclusive, covering above matters
which is not advisable There are so
many objections to the bill that we rec
ommend that it be laid on the table.
PRISON PAROLE BILL.
The Judiciary Committee reported
favorably on Senate Bill AZ, as follows:
Your Judiciary Committee to which
was referred Senate Bill No. 43 reports
that the object of the bill is to make
the communication of punishment in ter
/ ritorial convictions coincide with those
of the Federal Government, and also
to provide for the parole of prisoners
confined for small offenses' after they
have served the minimum time pre-
scribed for the offense for which they
were convicted upon the recommended

THE SENATE.

The Senate had it's second inning
with the County Act yesterday, reach
ing a point where the validity of the
Legislature fixing salaries of county
officers was once more questioned by
Achi. this time on the point that each
proposed county being corporate
body, representatives from other coun-
ties had no right to interfere in its in
ternal concerns. Also, the Senate
knocked out the Park reservation bill
because majority could not agree that
it would be wise at this time TO put
the greater part of the unoccupied laid
on Tantalus in the reservation, thus
taking from the Territory a tract
whose sale might net profitable re-
turns.
The work of the day opened with
a notification of the failure of the
House to agree to the Senate amend
ments to House bill 43. The follow
ing were appointed as conferees in be-
half of the Senate, Gandall, Paris and
Achi
The House likewise failed to concur
in the Senate amendments to House
bill 49, providing for the raising of
the flag on schoolhouses and other pub
lie buildings, and Bishop, Dickey and
Hewitt were appointed conferees in be-
half of the Senate.

AS TO DISBARMENT.

The Judiciary committee reported as
follows on Senate bill 81, Ito Regulate
the Admission of Attorneys and Coun-
sellors at Law and to Repeal Sections
1897 TO 1905 of Chapter "a of the Civn
Laws of 1897 saying:
That present law gives the power to
the Supreme Court only to grant IL
cense to practice in courts of record,
which is the custom in nearly, if not
all the States.
In some States examining boards are
established, but we know of no instance
when the several kinds of courts of
record can admit attorneys to prac-
tice before their special class of courts
only. We think that the admission of
attorneys in this Territory is sufficient
~ guarded with the Supreme Court,
having. the power to admit to practice
in all the courts of the Territory, but
we would be willing to have the eA-
aminatiOns made by a board of exam
liners. The bill apparently would not
allow Supreme Court lawyers TO prac-
tice in Circuit Court nor vice versa
which we think would be a great in
convenience.
In regard to dismissal We find that
nearly all the States. either under the
common law or statute provide for dis
barment by the Supreme Court alone
as is the practice here.

African HOspitnlity.

Hospitality may be considered as one
Of the characteristics Of not only the
Veis. but Of the whole African race. 1t
is considered the duty Of every citizen
to entertain strangers without the
smallest compensation. Places Of rest
stand always open. and when these
are found occupied by strangers man
goes and tells his wife. who will send
her servants with water for the stran-
gers to wash their feet. for, as they
wear no shoes. they naturally need
such an accommodation. Afterward
rooms and cloth wrappers are given
them. food is brought from all quar-
tiers or they are invited 10 eat with
the people. They continue to be 80
provided for even II they stay months.
Their garments are also washed and
returned to them. On leaving they
generally make small gift to the
wife of tho host. though not more than
two or three cola nuts or two or three
English pennies.-Ccntury.

A lawsuit which makes Jarndyce

suit In point Of time in the history Of

arose out OF dispute over q pension.

have reached fabulous millions had
not four centuries Of attorneys, bar.
risters and court officials taken con.
sideratc and eHectual measures to
prevent Its attaining uuwieldy pro-
portions. In 1871 the case was
deemed Just about ripe for de-
cision. but for one reason or another
1t has been continuously postponed.
However. the judges have now become
npprehensive lest the case run over
into its nth century. and. as this
might reflect upon tho promptitude Of

forth that the wheels Of Justice are to
be accelerated to a burst Of speed that
will secure the giving Of a Judgment
within a period not to exceed two
