ADDRESSES MADE AND PRIZES GIVEN The Columbian «'Preps’” Elocution- ary Contest. ee GONZAGA COLLEGE STUDENTS The Academy of Music was filled by a throng which occupied every seat in the house, and which even occupied not a little of standing room. The occasion was the tventy-fourth commencement of the law school of the Georgetown University, and the large gathering witnessed the stepping forth of 124 graduates, 86 bachelors of laws and 38 masters of laws. The theater was beautifully decorated with bunting and palms and floral pieces, and the band of the marin2 corps, under Conductor Fanci- ulli, rendered a delightful musical pro- gram. Upon the stage were seated the members of the faculty of the school, Dis- trict Commissioner Ross, Judge W. S. Cox, ex-Commissioner Myron M. Parker and many others prc minent in legal and politi- cal circles. Degrees Conferred. After the band had rendered several se- lections, much to the enjoyment of the au- dience, the Rey.

Havens Richards, ccnferred the following degrees, stating that the graduating class was the largest in the history of the school, and he stated that many improvements would be added: Bachelor of laws—William B.

When the diplomas had been conferred, and after another selection of music, Mr. Justice Shepard of the Court of Appeals arose and presented Mr. R. Ross Perry as the orator of the occasion. Mr. Perry, who is a member of the faculty, was received with great enthusiasm, the class and col- lege cries being particularly Upon such occasions, Mr. y, it was customary to address the audience through the graduates, but he proposed reversing that rule. Too often, he said, the address occasions were hack- = ice, congratulation and the graduates needed encourag- nd they should have them, for ung soldiers of an army going for others. Such occasions should be multiplied, and not only should the col- leze-b: man be so encouraged, but also those but graduate in manual callings. Very few people realiy understand the ing of lay Mr. Perry, and, there- bur fain e the labor and Law, he said, n in its technical sense, is not ali found in law books. Good law should be common sense and impartial justice. Mr Perry referred to the Dred Scott decision i States Supreme Court in 1856, trating the fact that it is the com. mon sense and justice of the people which make the law after all. At the time the law as laid down in the Dred Scott case the law of the books and of the judge: not the law of the people, for ter a great civil conflict decid Was not, and that slavery r be tolerated in thi not even today con- are right and just. Mr. 2 referred to the present condi- d children before the law and as an example of of the law. He spoke of of the law in reference to ing that not until recent years s it that women had recelved any sub- nial rec Although not fifty s of age, all the reforms looking to the and advance of women in law pone his }fetime, sald Mr. rotection of chil c animals were referred to by Mie as nies ings ressilting from great The law was really alwa; seeking break the bonds binding it and to be tree, and great reform in the law would yet come to pass. Those reforms lay in the young men before kim, said Mr. Perry, and if accomplished will be accomplished by them and those like them. Stating that the future Judges of the land are to come from such, Mr. Perry remarked that the judges are more powerful than even the President. But it was due to the judges that law had become more and more free and progressive and just, progress in it being often due to what is known as ju- dicial legislation, And remedial law or equity being largely the acts of the judges themselves. The young men before him, said Mr, Perry, may be legislators, pos- sibly judges, but he now saluted them as advocates. And high as the judge may be, the advocate is still ‘higer, for the advocate means eyes for the blind, help for the nelp eas and strength for the weak. But the little thought of the advo- cate is seen, he said, when the labors of the advocate seeking to save by every possible: means the life of his client is arshly crit{clse . Xet, the true advocate would not dare, could not conscientiously a Jesh, for while it is the duty of the state destroy the murderer, it 1§ the duty of the adyocate tq save him if he possibly can, The law, sald Mr. Perry, in conclu- sion, should always be regarded as some- thing higher than a mere opportunity for Decunlary gain. The lawyer who belleved otherwise was untruo to his profession. Hi would that the state F 4 and controle the advocates as it did its judges, but ttl that 1g done the advocate must live. x, Perry's earnest and eloquent speech received a great burst of applause, and he was presented with a great and magnifi- ¢ent floral piece, Prizes Awarded. Another musical selection followed, and | then Mr. Jere M. Wilson stepped forward to announce the prize winners. It was several minutes before he could proceed, however, he receiving an ovation from the graduates and audience.
