of justice. A witness testified in 8
 certain case that a person named
 Mary was present when a particular
 conversation took place, and the ques
 ton was asked, What did Mary say?'
 This was objected to, and after some
 discussion the judge ruled out the question. An exception to this de cision was immediately taken, and on appeal the higher court reversed the verdict on the ground that the ques- ton should have been answered. At the second trial the same inquiry was propounded and elicited the informa- ton that Mary said nothing. Mir Hill. in concluding his very interest ing article. submits that lawyers are very much in need of seeing them selves as others see them. It should be salutary to the profession to know that they are coming to be looked up- on by fair and broad-minded men as defeaters of the law and mockers of its majesty. If this deepening impress sion is not justified, it Is high time that certain things not now spoken of should be openly discussed, and that the powerful influence of the best ele- meut of the profession should be exert cd upon it's members. to the end that public opinion may not anticipate pri- vate information" Would it not be well to amend the ethical rule that the lawyers first duty is to his client" in some way that would not be construed as relieving a lawyer from any duty to his state CT to or ganized society. Is it possible that such a rule as the above can be a safe guide for members of any pro fession.-Washington Post.

PROMOTING SOCIALISM.

Burke Cochran declares that the paramount issue at the present time, both in the United States and abroad, is sciaiism, and he further declares that the avowed advocates of this ism are not doing half as much to promote it as those who are opposed to it are doing by advocating the ownership of railways, and almost everything else, by the general government.
 Perhaps Mir Cochran is right. At any rate, says the San Antonio Ex- press. he is not the only statesman to suggest that we may Dc going little too far in the direction of regulating everything by statute and providing not only the corporations but the in- dividual citizen with a guardian and monitor.
 There was a time when the Ameri- can citizen was very jealous of his liberty and Independence and impa- tient of too much government re- straint. The slogan that "that govern .ment is best which governs least" had not then been reversed.
 
 We seem to be getting very far away from the ideas that generally prevailed in both the old political par ties before the populists came for ward with new doctrine that appears to have taken firm hold, though the party failed.

THg RAvAeEs oE RArs.

It is the rat-the big brown, Nor way rat-that inhabits our sewers our stables. our warehouses and oul cellars. that swarms about the wharves and circumnayigates the globe by securing passage in every ship and steamer The United States department of agriculture warns the farmers of the country that 1t Is a most expensive luxury to harbor rats as healthy rat will eat or destroy 50 cents worth of grain a day. The rat census mas never been taken. but the department suggests s1O0 y000. .0O0 as the probable value of the cereals consumed yearly by the rats of the United States.
 This is a large total. but this Is a large country, and rats have a large field to forage in. The annual loss by rats in France Is given as $40, ,000,. 000. The people of little Denmark lost s3.000.000 a year by rats. It Is evident that the rat holes will hear looking into. Rats consume a great deal of waste, but that waste could be much better disposed. The rats are a heavy drain on the profIts of agri- culture. and the loss they cause is by no means confined to food.
 The agricultural department tells us that rats destroy eggs and young poultry, pigeons. gam5 birds and wild song birds. They have been known to kill young rabbits, pigs and lambs.

and even to attack children. Car Hagenback once lost three young ele | phants because rats gnawed their feet, inflicting ineurable wounds. l They enter stores and warehouses and destroy dry goods-lace curtains, carpets, woolens, silks-as we'll as kid gloves and other leather goods. They gnaw through lead pipes, flood. Ing buildings with water or filling them with gas. They injurefurniture and the foundations and doors of buildings. They eat the insulation from electric wires, thus causing dis astrous fires. The average fire loss in the United States due to defective insulation is placed at $15.00O,0O0 an- nualy, considerable part of which is said to be caused by rats.
 This is 8 terrific indictment, but besides rats are the host of the germ of the bubonic plague, and they are the active means of spreading that disease. They are the most prolific of animals. The young female be- gins to breed at three months old and will produce rom three to six

 Temperance in all things should be the watchword, but the navy of the United States is poor company to preach absolute interdiction to. The battleship Kansas has probably seen it's first and last lemon festival.

4 CRUISE
 IN LEMONADE.

A fine silver service was presented
 to the new battleship Kansas at Paila-
 delphia on the 17th inst, and the
 press dispatch says the proceedings
 were a bitter disappointment to some
 of the guests. The temperance peo-
 pie of Kansas, headed by the goyer-
 nr. exerted their influence to make the
 affair in part a celebration of the pro
 hibitioD movement in the Sunhower state. Only lemonade was permitted in the way of beverage. If it had been a naming of the ship bottle of lemon juice or ginger ale would doubtless have been broken over the bow. The governor made a speech in which he said: We have set up 3 new standard for the nations it is a standard of resistless power in war and of magnificent generosity in peace We must be the arbiter of the worlds difficulties. Under the leadership Of our great president we measured to this mission in helping to conclude an honorable peace be tween Japan and Russia We must continue to be the peaeemaker of the world, and in order to fuIfll the high mission we must have the greatest navy that blows the seas"
 That we should have a sufficient navy to meet emergencies is well nigh the unanimous demand of patriotism; but the boosting and challenging Ian guage in which the desire is frequent ly expressed has come to be an of fense to sound sense and real devotion to our honor and institutions. It is as easy to be a braggart over lem onade stand as 1t is over bumpers of rum. the drink which is historically with life on the seas The sentiment of temperance should have universal respect. but facts are facts and GUS toms are customs, and the judgment as to the stomachic needs is made up on what are looked upon as prime necessities, says the Cincinnati En- quirer. We apprehend that when the battleship Kansas is turned over to the officers of the United States navy, the commissary will be scant in lem ons- Nobody seems to care much for them these times. If we hear of some person being handed lemon" it is sure that he has received something he doesn't want. Had the Kansas been completed. and had she beer the American flagship at the battle of Santiago, rather than the Brooklyn, Admiral schley would have been as thoughtful of the whole list of ofa- cers and crew. and sent messages of encouragement even to the halfroast- ed men in the stoke heil-hole. And after the battle. when the men came up Aalfstifed and weakened by their work. and in desperate need of ssimu- lants. DO picnic outlay would have been set before them.

REFORMING THEIR PROFESSION.

The law is the greatest of all profSs- sions. in that it embraces all human interests. Members of that profession
 are the chief factors in all civilized
 governments. They frame oonstitu-
 tions and statutes, they constitute the
 bench and the bar, and thus have
 charge of the enforcement of the laws.
 Their power is almost unlimited and
 the responsibility of the profession to
 society is commensurate with it's pow
 CT. One of the most hopeful phases of
 the tidal wave of reform that haa for
 many months past been surging over
 this country is the bright prospect it
 holds out of effecting an elevation of
 the moral standard of lawyers. We are
 not referring to the shysters, the mis-
 placed laborers who should be armed
 with picks and spades. for although
 these constitute pest, they are not
 2 thousandth part as dangerous as those eminent attorneys who, for great
 fees, devote their prfound learning and consummate ingenuity to devising ways by which gigantic trusts and combines evade statutes by getting through or over or under them. But for this kind of legal aid predatory wealth would have been incapable of most of the evil practices by which it has acquired many millions to which it has 10 moral right.
 Some years ago there happened to meet in an eastern city three lawyers of national reputation. two of whom had long been in successful practice on the criminal side and the other had had great success in important cases on the civil side. In the course of a long conversation the two criminal specialist regaled each other with re- citals of many instances of sharp prac- , tice by which they had succeeded in securing acquittal of more than a hun dred men. whom they knew and the public believed to be guilty. The third member of the group, after lIs- tening to his brethren for an hour or more, remarked that. while he had never defended man charged with 3 capital ofsense, for his taste did not lie in that direction. he had in all done more harm than both of his distinguished brethren, for he had helped the strong to plunder the weak by evasion of the intent of laws. He had done this on a great scale. But" he said, If the lawyers win not reform the profession the time is not far or when public indig- nation will call a halt and may call

 Ing Mir. Justice Brewer of the United 1 States supreme court, have spoken many words of truth and soberness hat have laid bare the practices that 10 really moral man attempts to de 'end. although lawyers of high stand ng in morals as we'll as in learning 'ractice them.
