PROFESSIONAL
ETHICS

There are so many rich rogues es.
Gaping justice upon technicalities o.
law, s~o-called, but really because they
are rich and have the price," that the
law, the lawyers and the very courts
themselves are losing that respect
and generation they were once hello
in by the people. This is lamentable
and like most every other wrong
nowadays, greed and lust for money
is at the bottom of it.
Every day the poor guys who steal
some trifling thing are getting thrown
in by the thousands, but how many
of the big profiteers have been pun
ished, or in any way been made to pay
the penalty of their crimes against
the whole people? Why is this +!
There is but II logical answer.
The claim upon the part of the at
torneys that 1t is their duty to do
all in their power for their clients is
not well taken, and is not. true. No
hhoht iaOyCA Va OtlCl WloO, ohOulo w
anything and everything in his power
to hinder justice overtaking any
w~rong-doer or criminal, No matter
how much the wrong-doer or crimina.
pay him SO to do.
And any lawyer who is not man
enough, has not honor and honesty
enough to forego financial considera-
ton for the sake of right and justice
ought not be allowed to practice law.
and should cult the profession and
enter some other field of activity. As
a fit substitute for such a lawyer we
would suggest porch-climbing, burg
larry, auto bandicy, or ship-scuttling.
There is also still wide opportunity in
politics, meat and food trust ventures
and other corporate piracy. And in
cidentally it may be remarked, in
passing, hat all these latter named
activities are in no manner worse
than is the prostitution of profess
sional knowledge and brains to enable
such criminals to escape just punish
ment for the crimes they have COM
mitted. The alleged lawyer who
makes it possible, by te~chnicality or
otherwise, for a wrong-doer or GRIM
inal to escape justice and just punish
n-ent is a party to the crime and
merits as severe a D~unishment as the
client he assists in criminality.
A very few lawyers of the present
day, probably, are going to agree with
us in this logic, but we do not care
If not a single M of them on earth
agrees, still is this logic true as the
everything gospel.
