ship!"
Inc first of these three incidents
was by no means unprecedented.
while the other two have long been
or daily occurrence. 1t is not impor-
tant that similar incidents now and
then mark the life of other cities.
New York is not the only sufferer.
We relate the incidents by way
OF earnest admonition to the trans
portation managers of the whole
country at this time when the rail-
roads are being returned to private
management, as examples of the
very effective practice of the gentle
art of manufacturing Bolshevists.
There is no use saying that the peo-
pie stultified themselves by demand
ing private management in the one
case and Government management
in the other: there Is no use in
pointing out that Bolshevism is not
the proper remedy for such annoy
ances. Crowds are not always log
ical; but they are wantonly subject
ed to such indigisities and injlries,
they are resentful; they know that
something is wrong; and they are in
clined to smash things to see if they
cannot right it.
Such incidents as we have des-
cribed. which are OF frequent occur
ence and which in ninety-nine cases
in which every hundred tre wantonly
and stupidity unnecessary, do more
to engender discomfort and to foste,
pernicious and disloyal ..isms" than
all the rantings of soapbox orators
and all the preachments of sedious
prints. 1t is time for all managers
OF public utilities and indeed of all
c; operations to consider their respon.
sibtlity to the public. and to realize
that nothing can be more mischiev.
Gus to themselves than to give tho
public cause to feel itself asgrievod
against them. The American people
are marvellously patient, and they
are sympathetic. They will endure
philosophically. even humorously. in
.conyeniences and hardships which
they see are unavoidable. But they
will not put up with gratuitous griev
ances imposed upon them. whether
by striking woIkmen or by corpora
tions.

London, Eng, April 3, 1920
Some of the most interesting hours
i have spent in London have been in
and around the law courts. 1t must
always be remembered that though
England is country of 10000, 1000
people. there is nothing correspond
ing to the division of our country into
states. and that in consequence many
things which are done in state cap
itals or even in county seats in Amer
lea come before the kings court in
London. So the other day / saw
Lord Reading. the Lord Chief Justice
Of England, with two other justices
of the Court Of Appeal, trying the
appeal OF a man sentenced to fodr
years Imprisonment for larceny.
And l saw another lord justice sit
ting as a court of first instance, try
ing the simple case Of the detention
of an automobile. which we would
consider matter for the Superior
Court.
There is much of the past cling
ing to the High Court. AT home we
have recently made a concession to
dignity and ordered our judges to
wear plain black robes. Here, not
only judges, but counsel wear them
and in addition they wear gray Wigs
adorned with neat little cylindricai
curls, and with queues hanging down
their backs, as in the days of Charles
I. Like many things which nave
become mere matter Of form. the wigs
have shrunk. 1t sometimes starties
one to see fringe of coal black hair
protruding from below the powdered
wig. When the judges are hearing
ordinary civil cases they are content
with plain black robes. but in the
criminal trial I have mentioned, Lord
Reading end his associates wore gor-

DEMONSTRATE UTILITY OF
PNEUMATIC TIRES MAY 4
Stunts of Big Trucks Will Prove the
Superiority of Pneumatics for
Heavy Machines.

To afford the people of Olympia,
and particularly the residents of the
surrounding country, an opportunity
to see at first hand the wonderful
progress made in the manufacture of
auto motive equipment, particularly
the heavy duty pneumatic tires for
trucks, practical demonstration will
be held on May 4.
size from q to 5-ton capacity, will
invade Olympia from Seattle and Ta-
coma on the day the celebration
Nearly one hundred men who are
authorities on auto motive transpor-
tation will accompany this caravan.
Immediately after arrival of the
trucks in Olympia a truck parade will
be held. giving the people the first
opportunity to see this wonderful col
lection of trucks.
Following the parade the trucks
will be driven to a freshly plowed
field on which the 40 trucks will be
put through series of tests hereto
fore believed impossible.
The trucks will be equipped with
all makes of pneumatic tires, thus
proving the contention of transporta-
tion experts that the pneumatics are
absolutely superior for all kinds OF
travel.
At noon luncheon will be served
at which some of the highest author
tiles on auto motive efficiency will
speak
The general public is invited to at.
tend, particularly owners of trucks
and those contemplating the purchase
of trucks.
With this caravan is the mammoth
demonstrating truck that recently
made a wonderful test run between
this city and Aberdeen. This truck is
3a ton Packard and one of feet
that operated between Akron. Ohio
and Boston, piling up the tremendous
mileage of III, 900 miles. After max
ing three trips across the United
States it is still piling up records as
good roads booster. which is the
best kind Of community builder.
After the actual operating test the
entire feet Of trucks will be parked
in one block in the central part of
town and representatives will give
any information desired.

further details.

and he cannot sue for his fees. In
practice he usually demands pay in
advance. But he still wears on the
back of his gown little tab, into
which clients used to slip whatever
they considered his services worth.
In those days, I fear, some practic-
toner's Jared very badly indeed.
Admission to the bar is regulated
by what seems to us very strange
method. Here again we must con-
suit history. There are four ancient
societies, Gray's Inn, the Middle Tenn
pie, LincOln's Inn, and the Inner
Temple, which have had for centuries
the privilege of calling their mem
bers to the bar. Every would be
barrister must apply for admission
through one of them. Originally
they We're really law schools, but for
long time this was lost sight of.
During recent years legal instruction
under their supervision has been re-
vived. But it is not necessary that
the student do his actual work in
London. He must, however. meet
the requirements of residence by eat
ing so many dinners a term in the
hall of the inn of which he is to be-
come a member. All of my fellow
students at Oxford who intend to be
admitted to the English bar. journey
up to London several times term to
"eat dinners" They are. according
to the technical requirements, in
residence at Oxford and London at
the same time.
Readers of English news items may
sometimes be puzzled to learn that
important cases are being tried be-
fore the House of Lords. Here again
history is responsible At one time.
when justice was much simpler mat
ter than it is today, the House of
Lords, as a body. was the court Of
last resort. Today this still holds
In theory But it is obvious that
very few members of that House are
qualified to exercise such functions.
The body before which the cases are
actually tried consists Of the Lord
! tChancefior. is .th4s highes ~ia<s
officer of the government; all lords
who have in the past held the Office
of Lord Chancellor; and several "law
lords" appointed for life from among
the most eminent judges of the coun-
try. In this way, by fiction very
similar to that which attributes all
acts of the state to the crown. court
is constituted which corresponds. in
position and in bility. to the su-
preme court of the United States.

The love of the class system in
England extends even to the legal
profession. There are two grades of
lawyers, "barristers' and solicitors" !"
The latter do the greater part of the
work which we ordinarily think of
as belonging to lawyers. They attend
to the routine business of estates and
investments. do most of the hard work
of preparing cases. and even before
county courts. But they are not
allowed to appear before any of the
branches of the High Court in Lon
don. That is the privilege of the
barristers alone. Barristers are. in
consequence practically special plead
ers. II solicitors client has a case
to be argued before the High Court
the solicitor finds a barrister. primes
with facts and arguments, and sits
beside him in court TO prompt him
if he goes wrong. But the poor so'ici-
tor cannot open his mouth to address
the court. If he sees the barrister
headed in the wrong direction, all he
can do is to pluck him by the gown
and correct him. 1t is often very
cOmical to see the barrister stop
short in the middle Of sentence,
confer with the solicitor, and go on.
