Pity the Manufacturers.

"We must have more protection!
Otherwise the foreign manufacturers

This was the cry that went up from

driven out of home markets, our man.

Lloyd Did Excellent Work.
Nearly all of the 39l Democratic

nominated. To James 7. Lloyd of
Missouri, chairman of the National
Democratic Congressional Committee,
properly belongs large share of the
credit for the high character of the
men selected to make the race in the
name of Democracy. From the mo-
ment he took charge of the campaign
Mr.. Lloyd concentrated his efforts up
on seeing that men of high moral
character and recognized integrity
were named. 1--WE can win, but only
if We presentmenof proven patriotism
and integrity, to the voters, declared
Mr.. Lloyd over and over again to the
Democratic leaders throughout the
country. This was practically an ul-
timatum, because Chairman Lloyd saw

In addition to the foregoing specific
measures the association received with
marked approval the recommendations
made by Judge Letton in an address which
he read to the association at the last day
of its session. 1t would serve no purpose
to attempt to summarize them here. l will
call attention to one point only which he
made: Nebraska already possesses a law
which has been carried into effect by the
decisions Of the supreme court by which
the court, in every stage of an action,
must disregard any error or defect in the
pleadings which does not affect the sub
stantial rights of the adverse party; and
no judgment shall be reversed or affected
by reason Of such error or defect"
/ think 1t is fair to add that the success
Of the recent meeting of the association Is
demonstrated beyond question by the wide
| spread discussion which it has provoked
and the attention which it has directed to
the reasonable changes which the lawyers
of the state are endeavoring to effect in
the laws relating to the. courts procedure.

Colonel Tanning
to Change Name
Will Be John Mcdonald in Sunny
Italy to Escape tie Sharp
Stiletto.

There is one thing about Colonel Fan
ning's trip abroad he said little about"
remarked Tom Flynn. I'VE believe he will
plant the Dahlman flag he took with him
on the top of the pyramid of Ghizeh all
right and he will lead the cheering with
gusto and right good viii. In other parts
Of Egypt and adjoining countries the
colonel can also be expected to make his
voice heard; but he will travel without
regimentals or brass bands when he
reaches the country the red hats come
from.
THE reason for this: Colonel Tanning
has found it necessary, in his business, to
fire a good many men at different times.
A great many were Italians, and SOME
of them did not go willingly. flaming is
fearless in away, but when he is passing
through Italy he will pass John Mcdonald
off as himself. Tanning is to do the reg
istering, and he intends to tip the clerks
and the cab drivers to max 1t known
that his name is Mcdonald"

ton ward and woodward, The chapel will
seat GOO and by raising doors leading into
the reading room 1t can be made to seat

Lawyers and reform.

OMAHA, Jan. 5. SOTO the Editor of
The Bee: / wish to correct some misun-
derstandlng as 70 the action taken by the
Nebraska State Bar association at its re-
cent meeting, y
To begin with, the association took action
which many reformers might initiate, but
rarely do-it first proposed to reform itself,
1t made a change in its own method of
procedure, whereby in the future, the work
Of its committees will be systematized, so
as to avoid the conflict in the reports
which took place at the recent meeting,
and which probably led to much of the
public Misunderstanding. But, more i'm
portantsin this particular. it adopted, with
two minor changes, the code of ethics re-
Gently formulated by the American Bar
association. While the greater portion of
this code simply sets forth the standards
Of conduct which the better class Of
lawyers have always held before them
selves. yet its formal recognition by an
association cannot fail to be of value,
Some of the sections condemn methods
which unfortunately do still prevail here
as elsewhere. and there is no doubt that
this action will have a tendency TO correct
such misconduct among lawyers.
The association opposed these measures:
l. 1t dissented from the recommended
ton OF the American Bar association that
the law OF appellate procedure should be so
changed that no new trial should be or
dered In a civil case on the ground of mis-
direction OF the Jury or error In the ad-
mission or rejection OF evidence, unless.
In the opinion Of the supreme court, from
an examination OF the entire cause. il
should appear thet the error complained of
had resulted in a miscarriage of Justice.
2. 1t refused its assent TO a proposed
change in the ules Of procedure in the
supreme court, whereby that court would
be required, when II reverses a cause on
account OF instructions or rulings upon
evidence, to state in it's opinion in what
respect the rights OF the complainant hav.
been affected thereby.
J. 1t also turned down a plan requiring
district judges upon passing on a molten
for a new trial to enter upon the reoofd
statements as TO whether they believed
their instructions 10 be correct or not, and
II not, whether the error was prejudicial
or not ana giving the reason therefor.
4 1t refused TO recommend a change in
the present procedure, which now requires
all instructions to the jury to be in writ
ing, and refused TO adopt a plan whereby
the Judge might instruct the jury orally
II recommended:
IA return 10 the system OF district at
torneys for the Prosecution of Grim nal
cases,
IA law whereby only so much Of the
evidence in the district court as should be
found necessary to enable the supreme
court 10 pass upon the errors complained
Of need be taken up upon appeal.
D. An amendment requiring an appeal 10
the supreme court to be commenced within
