WHAT THE STATE BAR
ASSOCIATION MAY DO.
Jacksonville Times-Union.


The State Bar Association which
Vas organized here yesterday may be
of inestimabIe benefit TO Florida. If
it turns out to be merely the conven-
ton of a profession. considering moth
ing but the interests of its members,
it will be OF use 10 lawyers, but If it
goes beyond this and considers mat
tiers of needed legislation, either of adj
dition or repeal. it will help TO free
the state from many evils.
Florida has a great big constitution.
The convention that framed it seemed
TO think that no legislative body would
ever meet again, and hence they made
a lot of laws for all time that ought
to he subject TO change with the
changing conditions of the state
Florida now finds herself hampered
by a constitution that was made for
smaller state and for a state whose
population and whose business were
very differently distributed at the
time when the constitution was made,
from their distribution now. We ven
ture the assertion. without fear of
successful contradiction, that there is
no document on earth that prevents
as much from being done that ought
TO be done as the constitution of Flor
ida.
No others know as we'll as the lead
ing lawyers of the state what rubbish
should be chopped from this constitu-
ton If the State Bar Association
would appoint a capable committee TO
consider this subject. it would confer
a favor on the people of Florida. We
do not favor the idea of a constitu-
Jional convention at this time. partly
because We doubt whether such con
yentiOn would make any material i'm
prOvement and partly because the
people themselves can make such
changes as Ley desire IL the legisla-
ture viii refer proposed changes to
them. A constitution should be made
by lawyers-not by politicians and ii
should include only fundamental mat
terS-nOt matters of detail

Albert Williamson, in the Jackson

Claude L'Engle Of the Tallahassee

Our highly esteemed friend Mr..
Claude L'Engle was here this week
as a witness in that celebrated libel
case.
The editor of The F1oridian was
suffering with a horrible "crick" in
his neck Claude played the role of
the Good Samaritan" and prescribed
an t'infallible remedy" He was

Legal Expenses
Altogether Unreasonable.

Inc journal this morning presents
a statement of the expenses of the in
ternal improvement board for the
past two years for legal services.
This is the fourth statement that The
Journal has made of the expenditures
OF this board during that time, and
covers every item in the report that
the board has just made public
The Journal has attempted to elias.
sify these different items, and present
them in such shape that the tax pay
ers could tell at a glance just how
much money had been spent by this
board and for what purposes. The
people of Florida are interested in
these matters, and the next legisla-
tuTe will doubtless pass some
measure, or measures, regulating the
business of the board
In the statement today it will be
seen that the board has spent over
twenty thousand dollars for attorney S
fees, and expenses. This sum ap-
pears to us to be entirely unreason-
able. The state of Florida employs a
lawyer for the sum of twenty-five hun
dred dollars a year to look after her
legal interests, and yet this board has
employed counsel at a sum just four
times the amount paid the regular
lawyer. This is not right, and we do
not believe the people of Florida will
approve of it
In the report it will be noticed that
there is one regular retained attorney
for this board, who lives in Jackson
vile. and who receives a salary of
five thousand dollars year, and eX-
penses. This is just twice the amount
paid the attorney general, and yet this
lawyer is allowed to attend to other
practice, and only a portion of his
time is employed TO look after the in
terests of the board
The gentleman who has the dis
tinctiOn of representing this board in
this capacity is not TO be blamed If
he thinks his services are worth five
thousand dollars year. it is emf.
nently proper that he should stand
out for this amount, but we do not
believe he is worth this much to the
board. nor do we believe that the
board has enough litigation TO warrant
the paying of five thousand dollars
year to any lawyer If the board
becomes involved in any litigation
then it is its duty to employ good
legal talent, but we fail 10 see where
the board is warranted in paving a
lawyer 4 stipulated salary, especially
one that is equal to that of the COVER
nor. and twice that Of the attorney
general. There are just as good law
yers in the state who would do the
same work for less money.
Bryan and Bryan OF Jacksonville
were employed by this board during
1898 at salary of three thousand
dollars a year. This was in addition
10 the amount paid 10 their regular
counsel. After the first year il seems
that this firm was dropped from the
list of regular retained lawyers In
this same year there was Tailahas-
sec lawyer employed at a salary of
over three thousand dollars a year. IL
viii thus be seen that this board spent
over eleven thousand dollars during
1905 for specially retained counsel"
We do hot know just what work would
warrant the paying % this sum of
money.

it is difficult matter to get anything
definite from Tallahassee as to the
work being done by the state The

information. The Record believes that
