office that is used daily for the
meeting of wealthy directors of
big corporations.
Altogether, Judge Foster has
assigned nearly a score of these
wealthy corporation lawyers to
defend penniless crooks. None
of the lawyers assigned have re-
fused the request, and they APP
parently take as much interest in

When loose charges are made
that the practice of law is imbued
solely by sordid considerations
and that the old time honor had
departed to give place to the
spirit of the age, financial gain,
it is refreshing to be informed
that lawyers of large practice in
the LARGEST commercial center in
the country are not unwilling to
perform those duties which ev-
cry lawyer owes to his profession

being a case of one Negro charg-
ed with stealing from another,
the interest of the white people
of the place, of whom there was
a conspicuous minority, was not
sufficiently interested for it to
make any difference.
When the evidence was all in
and the prosecuting attorney, a
white man, of course, had sub
mitted the case without .argu-
ment, the accused, fortunately,
had no counsel the judge also a
white man, ordered the jury,
which could not agree in the box
to retire to an adjoining room
and find a verdict.
The jury retired. An hour
passed, and still no verdict. At
last the judge could stand it no
longer, and went in person to
to the room to see what was de-
laying the verdict. He found
each of the jurymen crawling
around on the floor, peering I'M
der the chairs and tables and al
so into the corners. The court
was amazed. He did not know
whether the whole jury had gone
crazy or what was the matter.

Judge Warren w. Foster is
now presiding in Part l, general
sessions, where all the criminals
rich and poor that are caught
within the confines of New York
are first arraigned after indict-
ment. Because of the hard times
in criminal circles at the present
period few of the crooks caught
nowadays have the necessary
means to retain a lawyer, and
ask the court to assign counsel
to them.
In olden days Sam Feldman,
Barney Mitnick, and Capt. Can
ton, the poor mans lawyers,
were always detailed to look out
for the interest of the penniless
crooks. Not so any more under
the present reform methods in
stituted by Judge Foster, the
poor crook is defended by learn
ed and wealthy barristers with
palatial offices in Wall street,
lawyers who have grown rich
from heavy retainers from cor
porations. Such men as Phillip
McCook of Is William street; AL"
fred G. Coke, Jr., of 2 Rector
street; George L. Lewis, of AZ
Broadway, and numerous others
can now be heard in the halls of
the honorable court of general
sessions makina the walls ring
with their eloquence in defense
of the penniless crook, accused
perhaps of the larcency of a tin
pail to fill with beer.
Thomas Thacher, the great
corporation lawyer OF 62 Cedar
street, whose fees are seldom
less than a 81, 900 per day when
he appears in court, was assign
ed by Judge Foster to conduct
the defense Of an unfortunate
woman arrested for shop lifting.

Humor of The Law

tells the story about a jury trial
in little obscure village some
where in Louisiana. Of course,
strange as it may seem, the jury
in this trial was made up entire

the available white men were
either at work or had gone hunt

Many of the judges of the SUI
perior court of this state say
that they will render a bill to
their respective counties to COW
err the cost of their justice robes.
In or two cases certain judges
are reported to have stated that
they will ignore the law requir-
ing them to wear gowns. Any
Judge who willfulTy disobeys the
law should be requested to re-
sign. Such a man has no right
to remain on the bench to force
the execution of law on other Of
tenders. 1t may be readily
admitted that the new law re-
curing a judge to wear the OBJ
solete gown if fool proposition,
but it is not more SO than a lot of
other freak laws passed by an ir-
responlible legislature. Never
theless it is a law just the same
and as long as it is the judges
should obey it. If the judges
don't like it they might declare
it unconstitutional, just as the
courts have done with numer-
GUS other and better laws. But
no judge can declare himself
above the aw.-Yakima Dem.

BENCH AND BAR

Obey the Law. The way IN
which many of the superior court
Judges in the state are treating
the ssctian of the new criminal
code regarding the wearing of
robes during the session OF court
is contemplate to say the least.
1t seems that they imagine them
selves above the force of the law
and are to be excused. They call
the law Silly" and "uncalled
for" and make the excuse that
court has been held ever so many
years in the state of Washington
without the judges WEAVING robes
and that it can now be held with
out the judges wearing robes and
that it now can be held without
themselves being arrayed in such
outlandish garb, as they are
pleased to term it. All this may
be true, but the state law requir-
ing this has been in effect but
few days, and what was done
last year is no excuse for what is
done today in this particular
case. A few days ago man had
so far as the state law Is con-
cerned, the perfect right to have
the front of his saloon blinded as
much as he pleased, but today he
cannot. If the Superior Judge
has the right to disobey or to ig-
more the law, then surely the sa-
loon keeper, or the commonest
citizen has the same right.
It is true the wearing of the
judicial robes will not make dig
nifty where dignity is utterly
lacking, but it will add dignity to
dignity. 1t is true that man in
such position should have dig
nifty enough without having to
wear robe in order to give him
a manufactured dignity. But
the men, as a rule, who are dis
regarding the law cannot be the
ones with the dignity. They
must be the ones who are lack
ing in the proper amount of dig
nifty, and are afraid of smile
from some of their friends,
should those friends happen to
see them arrayed in a black robe.
This may be misunderstood by
some to be modesty, but away
with such modesty when it leads
to disregard for law. The legis-
lature which framed that law
had some men at least with
brains enough to know what they
were doing when their votes
were cast. They had seen no
doubt, the lack of dignity in
many places and wished in some
way to do something to restore
the proper amount of dignity.
The question at this time is
not whether the law is proper or
improper. It is too late for such
controversies. But the question
is whether or not the highest
officials in our state courts are 60
ing to be allowed to discbey OF
to ignore a law that cannot be
misunderstood in it's application,
The laws are made to be enforc-
ed; and the disobeyer should be
made to pay the penalty whether
he be Judge or private citizen. =
