MAIDEN MESSAGE OF GOVERNOR
Statesman.

There we're at least two planks in
there Republican state platform that
Governor Hawley overlooked in his
message. One of them made reference
TO the desirability of Idaho anexing
a railroad commission to its already
populous official family. The other,
as recalled at this time, has some
thing to say about statewide prohib-
ition. As Mr. Hawley owes his cleo
ton largely to these declarations, his
failure to give them so much as a
line in the miscellaneous list may
be taken as a studied slight that one
can hardly harmonic with the fell
citations of his Inauguration and the
good fellowship of an inspiring new
year.
However, the maiden message OF
the new chief executive covers prac-
tically all the other features of both
the Republican platform and tho
Democratic, his own; albeit there is
a noticeable lack of partisan enthus
iasm with relation to the initiative
and referendum.
1t will be recalled that this planl
was put in the Democratic platform

The Legal profession is a slave Il
precedent and the court possessing
the courage to overrule a decision
so patiently wrong that it is gener-
ally recognized by the profession
but is hoary with age is untitled tc
a vote of thanks by all lovers of Jus.
tice. 1t is now and has been fol-
ages the policy of the courts and
the legal profession at large to rath-
er bear the i'll they know of than
to risk the consequences of muta-
ton. Better be wrong than uncon.
ventional. The rules of evidence and
pleading are so intricate and de
ficient that the practitioner must de-
vote his attention so closely to their
details he scarcely has time for crit
icism even though disposed to act
in. the capacity of reformer So
We sther my lawyer friend knows
much about the system of procedure
or not he has at least become II
slave to precedent and has advanced
that far towoard proficiency
The clergyman who exercises that
independence Of thought which
prompts him to break away from
the traditions of the fathers or who
questions the wisdom of the poll
cies of his compeers as surely faces
charge of heresy as that his dis
sent to the customs of his church
becomes published to the world.
The lawyer and the clergyman d.
not deserve much censure for their
extreme slavery to the traditions of
the past. Their ancestor worship is
not so much from choice as from the
imperative demands of their profess
sion. They are helpless victims OF
their environments. The man, how
ever, who justifies his acts on the
ground that others higher up have
resorted to the same method ano
whose business and life's work have
not been such as to bind him mind
and soul to precedent, deprives him
self of a great privilege when he
limits his field within such narrow
confines. An act or system is eithe,
right or wrong and he who would

full liberty of a discussion of this

Yesterday a disciple of Blackstone
said he read by discussion of the
duties of a juror in last weeks let
ter. He stated that any change in
court procedure calculated to cure
defects in the present methods
would not result in any improve
ment He further stated that oui
present system was the result of the
collaboration of the best minds OF
each generation for many consecu-
tive centuries. (This is not exactly
what he said and he did not express
it as elegantly as have, but ouch
was the import of his statement /

adduced in support of the method
was the fact that others, leaders in
the particular business under dis

mendable because it had been sue
cessful. I do not say that my lawyer

conclusion that the combined wis.

| the public we can not be too partic.
ular about the influence our trans
action may have upon the public
conscience.
When we study the customs that
have been handed down to US from
the musty past we should not reject
it because it is old neither should
we accept is as the inconvertable
truth because our fathers gave il
their unqualified support. But SHOULD
scrutinize every transaction from
the standpoint of one who has only

nothing of the opinion of any one

not seek the opinion of any one else
concerning the wisdom or righteous
ness of any act or system until you
have exhausted the full force OF
every faculty you possess. If you
must acknowledge the problem too
much for you and go to some one
else, keep your informa' ion to your
self for unless you have something
original to give out your audience

fountain where you got your draught
