HOW TO STUDY LAW.

Dear Mr.. Watson: Kindly spare
me the space in The jeff to ask you
question or two. | am a country
boy and want to become a practical
lawyer. CD What books should 1 be-
gin with? CD Is Latin, Greek and
American history necessary? CD
How far advanced should any one be
before beginning? With best wishes
to The Jeffs and it's readers.
A READER OF THE JEFF.
Medicine Mound, Texas.
Answer.
AS I have explained frequently, it
is not necessary to learn Latin and
Greek to become a first-rate practical
lawyer. A good English education is
highly desirable; but even that is not
indispensable. | have known some
very able and successful lawyers, who
were almost illiterate
A knowledge of ancient history is
not essential.
Blackstones Commentaries is the
book most law-students begin on. 1t
can be studied at home. 1t can be
borrowed from almost any lawyer.

THE "HOWLING DERVISHES."

Dear Mr.. Watson: Not long since
| had the pleasure Chat peculiar kind
of pleasure that man experiences
while sitting on pins) of hearing one
Mr.. Harris, Socialist leader from Ma
con, Ga, ripirant and cavOrt for an
hour and half upon the subject OF
"Mr. Watson's Fears and Errors. :"
He took up your challenge to the
Socialists to answer you upon the
questions of "The Home" "the Mar
ital Relations Religion, etc., and
answered them all one by one, separ-
ately and distinctly, by stating that
eve don't propose to do anything
about them" He said, among other
things, that the reason you were not.
Socialist was because you owned
1000 acres of land. He also said
that if he owned 5000 acres of land
that he would not be a Socialist
either. He said that he was willing
for you to own 40 acres, but that was
enough for any one man; in fact, as
much as one man could utilize. In
reply to your query as to who would
do the dirty work, he said that he
didn't know exactly what you meant
by that. Herr Bebel claimed it meant
W DIdCh UOOUS. dlSO Sdlu LLdC lie
had heard that there was an electric
apparatus in Atlanta for blacking
boots, which he thought would put a
stop to all uneasiness on that line.
He said that under the scientific
PRONUNCIATION of sanitary methods"
that the Socialists meant to establish
that there would not be much dirty
work.
Mr.. Watson, this thing actually
happened right here in Augusta, at
Red Mems hall. My attention was
called to it by tract that was
thrown around, and l want you to
know that | have never listened to
white man who preached as silly rot
as he did in all my life and I hope |
never will again. A local Socialist
told q friend of mine the other day
that you were holding up Socialism
here lately; that you were beginning
to see the error Of your Ways-be
coming more enlightened, so to
speak. Now, Mr.. Watson, I know
that your time is far too valuable for
you to take up any time with such
idiots as Harris, but if / could read
a line from you upon him and his
kind, I could then forgive myself for
going to hear him. We don't need to
go to China or Japan with our for
eign missions. We have ample room
