my opinion is that our profession
would gain immenely by combining
the two branches pretty much as they
are combined In the United States aud

the solicitors would profit by such an
agreement. They would have the right

In America the young lawyer goes
into an office. where he makes hts
merit known by steady attention to
business. There viii always be two
kinds of lawycrs--those who stay In

ents and attending to matters of rou-
tine, aud those who advise on points
Of law and argue cases In court.
These two orders OF men are clearly
distinguished in America. but they
work together as partners TO the great
advantage OF the client.

There are men who have never been
detected in wrOng-doing whose per-
formances are nevertheless so hostile
TO the public welfare or so acceptable
to seIf-seekers that their honesty Is
impugned and their patriotism dis
counted. Any prosecuting officer will
testify that there Is nothing in the
whole catalogue of crimes so difficult
to trace as political corruption, moth
ing so difficult to fix as bribery. The
public should not wait for proofs. The
vote should not wait for evidence. 1t
is not only essential that public men
have their dishonesty improved, but
that they be men Of such proved hon
