There were tum- bers of new arrivals during the day and the attendance at the was somewhat larger than at the morning, the regatta forsook the mecting for The meeting was called to order by Pres- \dent J. J. McCarthy of Dubuque. He in- troduced Rev. Father Smyth of St. Frantis Xavier's church, who asked divine bless- ing on the gatheriug. Finley Burke, pres- ident of the local bar assoclation, bade the visitors welcome. Colonel on behalf of the Elks, tendered the visit- ing lawyers the freedom and hogpitality the lodge's new handsome clubhouse. M. Kean of Sioux City responded to the address of welcome. Two papers were on the program for the morning sesslon—"The Law Reformer," by Charles A. Clark of Cedar Rapids, and “What Salary Should Our Supreme District Judges Receive?” by J. C. Mabry of Albfa. Mr. Clark was unable to be present and his paper was read for him by Judge Kinne of the State Board of Con- trol. Radical Not Cause Comment. Clark’s paper excited considerable com- ment, being considered somewhat radical. Among other things he sald After the abolition of slavery the law reformer took it in hand and he made & sad mess of It. It was clearly requisite that the prohibition of slavery should be crystallized Into a constitutio ial provision and this was well done. Beyond this, dis- Tegarding the teachings and solemn warn- ings of Lincoln, the law reformer attempted right of suffrage and thus fasten negro mon_country. To this end freed slave was apparently his right to rule over his late master, as well as his late deliverer, many of whom fell under black domination after fighting eneration of and misertes in the sout ances caused by this attempted law reform fot the Insidious taint of wholesule cident with the wholesale taint of traud, corruption and violence which elections at the south during this happy period, In spite of what was so carefully rafted rant ed, At 1 for one belleve t o negro. only been abortive, but bl thel; followed.

The grasping and commercializing spirit of the ake where every man's standard scems to be measured by the amount of money he has accumulatéd might well be added to the catalogue. It is doubtless true that all these and other cau the evil complatned of, It is true that most men are truthful find it to thelr Interest to be also true that there are many who Wil be no more truthfu] when sworn than when not. While in nefther of these cases the oath can do any harm save by teaching a double standard of truth, yet there a'large number of persons’ who rn tell the truth as they could in manner be induced to do. For as well as for the reason that to abolish ‘the oath would be too radical step to take at one time, 1 bellcve we are ot ready for the abolition of ull oaths. Perjury a Common Crime, By general consert It seems to be ad- mitted that perjury is the commonest. of crimes and yet the least punished. It {8 on account of this want of soclal odium that we find perjury committed among such soclal rank as that of the witness in the Beeche: Tilton case in America, the Mordaunt case in England “and the Dreyfus case in France. It Is for this same reason that reputable men lle to a court to evade jury services and then complain of bad verdlcts: le to a customs house officer to cheat the government which protects them and then complain of perjury in the courts, ' After reciting statistics to show the small number of persons confined in state or ter- ritorfal prisons for the crime of perjury, combine to create no other 1 would suggest that a law should be enacted not only giving the trial court power, but which would make it his duty, where' he has reason to belleve a witness has committed perjury before him, to com- el the witness to exceute a bond {o appear before the grand jury on the charge of perjury, and requirée other persons who had an_opportunity to see IIH({ know the per- Jury o enter into a like undertaking; that they will appear before the grand jury us witnesses as well as before the trfal jury it an indictment is found. 1 would also make ft the duty of the trial court to re- guire any attorney to enter into a like un- lertaking, where ‘it becomes apparent the attorney has been gullty of subornation, or attempted subornation of per- jury. I would make It a statu- tory' law that iIn sich a case, It would be the duty of the court to render an order disbarring such attorney from practi ing in that particular court until after the question shall have been passed upon by the grand jury or_untll after an acquittal by a trlal jury. Such laws enacted by a legislature Would be a loug step in the right direction. They would rid the bar of an unprofessional and casgerous element and the community at large of a viclous and criminal class. Remed ex Ad He also suggested theso remedies: To allow stenographers’ notes to be given in evidence by the stenographer who made them This would establish beyond much doubt the precise matter to which defend- ant testified. The law should be amended making it the speclal duty of the county attorney and the grand jury to inguire into all complaints and charges of perjury and the court should especlally direct the grand jury upon that subject at cach recurring session, Laws should be xo modified as to make the crime of perjury punishuble both by fine ea. prisonment in the penitentiary if the ef cumstances were aggravating and the proof of gullt overwhelming. Under the present law_convietion of perjury must be followed by imprisonment in the penitentiary for a period not exceeding ten years.

Begin Work on Ft. Dodge Branch. JEFFERSON, la., July 16.—(Specal)— Indications point to the completion of a large part of the grade for the new Chi- cago, Great Western line from Fort Dodge to Omaha before snow flles, It is learned from authority deemed reliable that the route from Fort Dodge passes through Lohrville, southwest through the corner of Greene county, diagonally through Car- roll, touch at either Glidden or Carroll, Manning, Harlan and thence to Council Bluffs. Already a gang of surveyors are at work near Manning and expect to reach Harlan within ten days. It is thought the work of construction on a portion of the line may begin during the month of Au- gust. There is adso a report that the Great Western may purchase dutright the Omaha branch of the Illinots Central, which, it is sald, never paid. In Greeno county, at Churdan and at Lobrville, in Calhoun county, there Is strong opposi- tion to the new line among business men. If the course proposed is followed it will result in the establishment of a new town, having a fine radius of territory In tao northwest corner of Greene or northeast coraer of Carroll, which would serlously Interfere with the trade of Churdan and Lobryille, Actuml Sarvey ix Begun, CRESTON July’ 16.—(Spectal Tele- gram.)—Lyman Waterman of Omaha, rep- resenting the Omaha System Traction com- pany, with a corps of surveyors, arrived in Creston this morning and Waterman's force at omce began the survey for the interurban rallroad from Creston to Win- torset. The line was surveved from the Burlington passenger depot to ‘he fair grounds and a slde line surveyed to Old Lake park, recently purchased by the city. Waterman's route from Creston to Winter- set Is directly east from the fair grounds, touching Spaulding. He says the survey wlll be completed in ten days. The arrival of the civil engineers created quite a little gossip and stir in ston, as there has been some doubt as to whether the road would be built. Mr. Waterman assured Major Skinner and press representatives that the roud would be constructed. He has plans for other interurban lines, one being from Corning to Omaha.
