Counsel responding to such client may
in one sense of the term be honest; but it is a
negative honesty. 1t is an honesty which
regards simply the client, the statute, and the
pay 1t is an honesty which ignores the fact
that both client and counsel are members of
society. and assumes that there is no moral
obligation upon either to respect the general
welfare.
Is it strange that there should be so much
criticism of the bar? We must remember that
the wisdom of the lawmaker can never keep
pace with the ingenuity of trained minds seek
ing to evade legal limitations The old saying
that holes may be found in every law means
simply that ingenious lawyer can often
find either in the statute itself or in the mode
prescribed for it's enforcement some way of
escape from its penalties. 1t is this which
provokes the frequent remark that the law SO
seldom reaches the rich, for the rich can pay
for the brainiest, who quickly discover the
means of evasion.

WHEN Judge David J. Brewer, of the

possible to arraign the dishonest of the law.
then there is no reason to doubt that there is
great deal of truth in the accusation. Judge
Brewer made a speech on the subject sometime
ago:
In the present day of intense commercial

Indeed. in some aspects, he is more exposed
than others. The rapid accumulation of
money is a mania. Money mad was the criti

ANDREWS WINS
ART|AL VERDICT

After considering the case for little
over two hours, the jury in the Federal
court, before which the damage action
of Lorrin Andrews versus the United
States has been going on for the past
ten days, returned verdict in favor
of the plaintiff, granting him $3.50 of
the $1,000 claimed and awarding the
Waiakea Mill Company $50. After
hearing the verdict, Judge Dole compli-
mented the jurymen on the ability they
had shown in following SO well such
complicated case and In returning such
an intelligent verdict. The verdict
states that Andrews is awarded 800
for the land taken by the government
for their railroad right-of-way and
$3.50 for the damages done to his prop
erty by cutting it in two by the rail
road line.
Il. w. Breckons, who represented the
United States in the case, noted an ex-
ception to the verdict based on pre-
viously rendered verdcts, and also
general exception. 1t is possible that
an appeal on the exceptions will be per-
fected today.
The case is one where the United
States government seized right-of-
way for a railroad to be built by Con-
tractor Metzger over which rock for
the Hilo breakwater work is to be
transported. The land in question is
held by Andrews under suitcase from
the Waiakea Mill, which company holds
ii under n thirty year lease, obtained
from the Kingdom of Hawaii, the title
now resting under the Organic Act in
the United States government. The
lease has still len years to run.
