PICKING TIES IN THE LAKE,

The Southern Pacific railroad CON-
pany has had 10000 ties picked
in the Great Salt Lake, along the line
of the ogden-Luein cutoff. The ties
have been in the salt water three
years and now are being loaded on
ears fer shipment to Hazen cutoff to
be given an actual service test in
alkali soil.
Piling is also being preserved in
the salt water as excellent results
have been obtained by the piling in
the great trestle across. the lake
which since the day it was placed, has
shown no deterioration.
There are ties in the old Promon-
tory line of the Central Pacific. which
we're placed there 40 years ago and
have not decayed, proving the prsser-
vative qualities of the salt formation
in which they were encased.
The preserving of ties and piling
in Great Salt Lake may become an i'm
portant industry. IL the experiments
now being worked out are successful
as the tests already made indicate
that they will be.
There is n drawback to the use
of these mineralized ties on the main
line of the Southern Pacific. The
ties are so heavily impregnated with
salt that they act as a ground" to
the electric current in the block
signal service. Where the block
signal is not employed. the ties can
be used.
The saturated solution of salt
water of the lake is a good conductor
of electric currents. so much that
where the water strikes the rails on
the fills TO the ogden-Luein cutoff.
the block signal is made imperative.

TOM HUDSON and Smith
HAVE A LONG TALK
Gov. Smith Hopes to Land the

Americas and all South Georgia is
Interested in the senatorial contest
soon 10 be waged before the legisla
ture and the probable candidacy ot
Col Tom Hudson of Americas in the
event Of a contest for the possibly va
cant gubernatorial chair. The situa
lion is growing decidedly interesting
just at present.
An Atlanta dispatch yesterday con-
tanned the following information,
throwing light thereupon:
To mHudson, commissioner Of ag-
riculture, spent two hours in Gov
ernor Smiths office yesterday after
noon, and they went to Gainesville TO-
gether to attend a gathering where
both are slated for speeches.
What Colonel Hudson and Gov
ernor Smith discussed at such length
is not known, but it is believed to be
in connection with Smiths candidacy
for the senate, and the possibility Of
a gubernatorial race to follow.
Any remaining doubt of Governor
elect Smiths earnest desire for the
the senatorship has vanished, even
among those inclined to believe he
would stick out his term as governor
1t is reported that he says if the leg
islature elects him he will be con-
strained TO accept
If this falls out, he would no doubt
resign at once, as the extra session
promises to continue through the en-
tire summer.
This view of it is now very nearly
general But there are many who be,
lieye the governor elect will not have
the plain sailing to the senatorship
his friends seem to think. Terrell is
gaining strength, and Covington's
friends claim he has 40 votes pledged
in the house.
Many of Hudsons friends do not
think he will be in the race for gov
ernor, if there is a race Slaton and
Russell are likely candidates.

by Gov Judson Harmon, of Ohio,
Formerly L. 5. Attorney Generall
1t is true thai one may do a moral
wrong by enforcing a legal right, and
in such cases The lawyer does not
necessarily share the blame, and there
is no substance in the charge that
lawyers become lax of conscience be-
cause they sometimes uphold the side
of a case which proves to be the wrong
side. But when a lawyer discovers
that his client is willing to succeed
by ignoble methods or becomes con
v'aced that the law is plainly against
him, he cannot Justify persistence in
maintaining his clients cause.
IF the matter cannot be compro-
missed his plain duty is to withdraw.
The chief source of danger to the
profession in these days is the de-
sire for wealth, which, first spreading
elsewhere with amazing speed, has not
left lawyers untouched. Its results
are deplorable enough in other quar-
tiers, but work with more deadly effect
aomng those who stand guard in the
temple of justice.
Lawyers Obligation in Office.
A lawyer should not enter public
life until he has perfected and es-ab-
lished himself at the bar and reached
position where he is not wholly de-
pendent upon the practice of his pro-
fession. Then his training and expert
ence fit him better than more others 10
take part in the conduct of the gov
eminent
If he be called to the bench it should
be in such way that he will be free
from all obligations which might
interfere or be thought to interfere,
with the fair and fearless performance
Of his duty Failure to observe this
rule largely accounts for the dfscon-
tent which in some parts of the coun-
try is expressed by demanding the
right to remove judges by popular vote
before their terms expire.
If the lawyer be called to Iegisla-
tive or administrative work, his know
ledge and training are quick assets.
He can perceive the scope and wide
bearing Of proposed law or change
of law. He can make certain and ac-
curate expression of the intended pur-
pose. He knows men and the play
of motives on conduct. He can present
his views so as to impress them on
others. He is skilled in detecting and
exposing unsound arguments.
And it is easier for the lawyer than
for most others to truly serve the
public interest and that alone. His
whole life and training have been in
representing others. And he can have
no client so strongly to appeal to him
as people who have won their liber-
ty and undertaken to govern them |
selves by the rule of equal rights. and
through chosen representatives He
can detect the insidious encroachments !
OF special advantage and privilege. |
Seekers after these through various

devices of legislation or official con-
duct are present on every side. oIausi>
J bic and persistent. The people who
chose and trusted him do not appear.
They are busy in the field, workshop,
office or elsewhere, most OF them work
ing out the problem Of existence. They
have no protec. or but him. Sovereign
though they be. they are helpless, for
the time being, if he in whom they pat
their faith, forgets or deserts them.
Sacrifice Crowns Honesty.
There is nothing more inspiring
than the silent trustfulness OF this
multitude o: freemen, nothing that lies
so sweetly in the breast as the cons
ciousness of having spared no effort
TO deserve it. And if there be some
sacrifice of personal interest in their
behalf so much the better, because this
is what exalts patriotism from a SEN
timent, into virtue.
The more varied the lawyers prac-
tice has been the better able he VIII
be to render effective public service.
HIS duty to the public requires him TO
see not only that the common interest
is safeguarded, but 9Iso that no Iegit-
innate enterprise or industry is sub
jected to injustice, because in our
free country the activities of all cit
liens are SO interdependent that all
must ultimately suffer from an injury
to any.
1t is not always easy to distinguish
between correcting a wrong and doing
one, especially when general resent
ment has been aroused, but it is nee
essary that the distinction be drawn
and drawn correctly. Glass IegisIa-
ton often assumes deceptive forms,
and selfish ends are given a patriotic
garb, while measures are drawn whose
real purpose and effect are artfuIly
concealed and official action is urged
in furthering of undisclosed designs.
A lawyer in Office is under a double
obligation. When he accepts the peo-
pie as his client he is bound to serve
no interest but theirs. He takes the
official oath besides. Lawyers gen
orally who enter public life respond
fully to this obligation. The excep-
tons which now and then occur are 4
warning. No betrayal is so dreadful
or so certain to be exposed as that of
a public trust. A lawyer is disgrac ed
who in his practice represents inter
ests which are adverse. Infinitely
deeper is the shame of such double
dealing in office. 1t is a species of
treason, and an offense against an
entire people is greater than one
against an individual"
