THE LEGAL FRATERNITY

The general impression uniortu-
nately and enormously prevails that
as a profession lawyers are acrooked
lot, and if you ask the average cltl-
zen what he thinks of the legal pro
fsssion. nine times OHt of ten he will
reply that pretty nearlyevery lawyer
will beat you If he can. There never
WIS a more erroneous impression
aud while there are, OF course, some
sharpers and shysters in the legal
fold who have given some color to
the unjust charges which, as pro
fession, lawyers have had to bear
when the opportunities afforded for
crooked conduct are considered, the
profession OF the law in its personnel
must be considered one of, if not the
highest and most honorable OF all
the professions. We are led to these
remarks by atributePaid the lawyers
of this country by Bancroft Whitney
Co.. law publishers, of San Francisco
California. 1t is entitled, "A Crate
full Acknowledgment 10 an Honor
able Profession" and in it the pub
fishers say:
On April Is, 1906. the date OF the
great fire. the legal fraternity OF this
country was indebted TO us in sum
in excess of 5000, 100000. The fire
DESTROYED all of our books OF ac-
counts.
The LAWYERS OF San Francisco hav-
ING lost their entire libraries we're alb
solved of their Indebtedness TO us,
amounting to about S3O'OOO w.
This lett an amount due from out
side lawyers of from Sl1O.OOO.OO to
SITS, 100000.
Having no lists OF patrons we sent
a circular letter to the lawyers named
in Martindale's Legal Directory adj
vising them of our loss and asking
for information as to their indebted
ness to us. The responses TO tins
circular were so prompt and so graf
flying that we think the legal probes.
sion should know that OF this total
Indebtedness, of say Sl75,OOO.OO,
nearly $3.50, 100000 has already been
reported to us. and we are receiving
advices every day from parties who
had not previously answered our CIR
CHAR asking about their indebted
mesa
1t is,but right to say that some OF
the SanK francisco attorneys declineu
to accept be cancellationoi their ac-
counts andRave paid same. Let II
be known to BE world that the legal
profession is male up OF men OF the
highest honor.

Increase in Pineapple Exports.

Walter Hawkins, general manager of
the United Fruit Co.. was in town the
first of the week. Mr.. Hawkins re-
ports that the total shipments of pine
apples to the English markets will be
in the neighborhood of 5000 crates,
and that his finn has handled $500
crates to date which closes the season
for this year, as the big English straw
berry crop will come on the market
about June 18th, when everything else
has to give way. The shipments this
year have exceeded last year. No re-
turns have yet been made, but it is
hoped that the growers will be suffi-
GENTLY well pleased to continue the
export shipments another year, when
the crop may be nearly double what it
is this year.

JUDGE PARKER FOR
ATTORNEY

Judge Otis K. Parker, Of Fort Pierce
while known to but few of our readers.
is a warm personal friend of the editor,
and in our opinion, is one of the rising
young lawyers of Florida. He is big of
brain, heart and body and stands at the
head of his profession. We had not
seen the Judge for several years until
our recent visit to Tallahassee, and we
were pleased to learn that he was fast
building a lucrative practice at his
new home, Fort Pierce, The judge
formerly lived at Lake City and was
that city's honored mayor, but st.
Lucie county being formed he moved
to that thriving section, where as sure
as fate, he will rise to the tOpmost
round and become one of its foremost
citizens.
In this day and time when the names
of men are being put forth for the sew
eral state offices to be filed at the next
general election, we rise to mention the
name Of Jud e Otis r Parker, of Fort
Pierce, as suitable timber for the attor-
ney generalshp, should our good friend
w. H. Ellis decide tC run for governor.
Judge Parker would Ell any position
with credit. and willie we do not know
whether he is ambitious politically or
not, the Record would be pleased to as
sst him at any time -Manatee Record.
