To WEED OUT
INCOMPETENT
LAWYERS
Root Pleads for Wedding Out of Too
Numerous and Incompetent
Lawyers.
(By United Press Association

Chicago, Aug. 3O.-President Elihu
Root of the American Bar Association
pleaded for wedding out of the I'M
necessary and incompetent among
the 114,000 lawyers in the United
States in his annual address at the
opening of the meeting of that or
ganization here today.
1T is true of the American people
generally" said Mr.. Root, that too
many of US have been trying to get
something out of the country and too
few of US have been trying to serve
it."
Basing his plea for efficiency in the
administration of the law upon the
statement that we must get down to
brass tacks in all our affairs if we're
going to keep pace with Europe after
the war, Mr.. Root fayed our "cum-
bersome machinery of justice" and
called upon the lawyers to forget their
selfshness and give the country a
little service not only in law admins
tration, but in law making. He said
that as rule only the youngest and
least experienced lawyers get into
our lawmaking bodies, local, state and
national. Concerning the law and the
lawyers, Mr.. Root said in part: ''There
is great economic waste in the admin
lstration of the law in state and ma
ton. We spend vast sums building
court houses, paying judges, clerks
and others and the product in justice
IS disproportionate to the plant and
working force. There is no country
in the world where the doing of
justice is burdened by such heavy
overhead charges. 1t all causes an
enormous waste of time on the part
of witnesses, jury panel and parties.
"The ease with which admission to
the bar is secured in many jurisdic-
tions and the attraction of a career
which affords living without manual
labor has crowded the Bar with more
lawyers than are necessary. Of the
114,O00 lawyers in the United States
very considerable part are not need
ed. If that business were conducted
like the business of any great indus

READY TO WEAR
PARLORS
Fall and Winter Goods Arriving Daily
at Wilcox's.

The varities in the styles for the
fall and winter wear are now on dis
play at the Ready to Wear parlors
owned by I. E. Wilcox, on Fourth
avenue south. To appreciate the new
styles one must see them all. The
suit jackets will be longer, some reach
ing below the knees while others are
conservative length. The jackets
have a newer fitted tendency above the
waist line, the effect being to show
the outline of the figure. The skirts
are simple and are from one to one
and one-half inches longer. Semi
fitted, fitted and loose flaring coats
are all popular and any one good style
The collars are to be worn either open
or high at the neck to the chin. Fur
trimming will predominant on every
thing in suits, dresses and coats.
In dresses radical change will take
place. Most of the dresses will have
the waist line a little high with full
skirts.
The coats are to be full and at
lengths from forty-fve to forty-eight
inches in length. The many fabrics
will be popular although the velours,
furs and pushes will be the leading
materials for coats. When down town
drop into the Ready to Wear Parlors
and look over the large line of fall
goods that are arriving daily.

trial or transportation company which
is striving for the highest efficiency
at the least cost in order to compete
successfully with it's rivals, a very
considerable percentage of the 114,O0O
would be discharged.
"Why do these defects exist in our
administration of justice? The Amer
lean people are not quarrelsome or
litigious. They are good natured
practical, simple and direct in their
methods, respecters of law and honest
in their dealings. Our Bar as a whole
is courageous, loyal and able, I think
the underlying cause is that uncon-
sciously we all treat the business of
administering justice as something to
be done for private benefit instead of
for the public service"
Mr.. Root admitted that our basic
law should be redrafted but, he added,
none but a prophet or seer could do
it and none such was available"
Committees on judicial reform will
report tomorrow morning and Mr..
Roots address may form part of the
basis of discussion on these reports.
Stephen S. Gregory of Illinois, for
mer president of the association, will
preside at the evening session today.
Former President Frederick w. Leh-

THE NAMING OF
WISCONSIN COUNTIES

Monroe County was named in
honor of President James Monroe, o.
originator of the famous Monroe Doc
trine"
Oconto county derived it's name
from an Indian word of uncertain O.
rigin. As first applied to the Oconto
River, it has been variously interpret
ed as ''red ground" "place of the pick
erel," and "black bass" Upon many
of the early maps Of the region the
stream was set down as Black Bass
River, which seems to bear out the
contention that such was the equiva-
lent Of it's Indian appellation.

There is only one way to cure deafness

Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-

famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can betak-
en- out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be de-

are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
