BRYAN ATTACKS lawyer
Who Wells THE WRONG
Says Society Will Yet Hold Him
Equally Guilty With the
Wrongdoer

William Jennings Bryan. Secretary of
state. made the prediction last night that

equally guilty with the wrongdoer the
man who knowingly tries through tech
nicalities OF the law to Veil the wrong.
Mr. Bryan spoke at the seventeenth ii
annual banquet of the Washington Col
lege of Law at Rausche-s He urged
the need of an ideal in the profession OF
law. declaring that no great wrong ex-
listed in this country without the brains
of lawyers back of it. The lawyer who
constantly tries to obscure the line be-
tween right and wrong soon loses his
power to distinguish between the two. he
said
The Secretary declared that Chrst's
question. What shall it profit a man if
he gain the whole world. yet lose his
own soul?' was practical question and
that lit comes to us every day. no mat
ter what we do
He added that something stronger tina
reason-"the something in the heart winch
makes man aspire necessary tor
those who wish to follow the profession
of law.
Former Chief Justice Stanton Peeiie of
the United states Court of Claims. ana
president of the board of trustees urged
his auditors to have confidence in their
profession. Miss r. NJ. Gillett, dean of
the college. told of the work which is
being done there. and gave brief history
of the institution.

the farmers of the state.
In poster bulletin now being dis

definite rules are given to prevent the
introduction of hog cholera into a
herd. These are:
l. Quarantine for four weeks all
hogs brought to the farm
2. Keep away dogs and all other
animals and persons coming from
cholera-infected farms.
3. Pasture the hogs at some dis
lance from main highways and away
from contaminated streams.
4. Feed a laxative diet but avoid
feeding very much new corn.
5. Disinfect the troughs daily and
the pens and yards each week with
quick lime.
6. Have an experienced person
vaccinate, with serum, all hogs while
healthy if the disease is in your To-
cality.
