THE
FARMER, JULY 16, 1889.
PROGRESSIVE
SEVENTY THOUSAND LAW-;
YERS.
David Dudley Field, the oldest
lawyer in active practice now living,
and not far from the forefront of the
profession, has given to the world his
views on the modern bar. He says
that the average lawyer of to-day 13
not averse to seeking business by urg
ing people to go to law for a division
of what may be made out of the suit;
-that the lawyers that can't get legiti
mate business must create litigation,
or seek some other method of making
& living. Of course, Mr. Field con
demns all this as " dishonorable and
disreputable," but he candidly ac
knowledges the fact that such prac
tices prevail.
A cause must be found for this
state of affairs, and the great New
"York advocate thinks he has discov
ered it. There are too many lawyers
for the population. By the census of
1880 there were 50,000,000 people m
the United States, and 70,000 law
yers, one to each 715 people. In
franco in the same year there were
-40,000,000 people and 6000 lawyers,
or one to each 6667 of the population.
It need occasion no wonder, therefore,
to learn that courts are beiDg multi
plied in this country; that the number
of judges is being increased, and that
the dockets of the courts are over
crowded, and the judges in a constant
flurry to keep up with the ever on
ward march of litigation. And as
decisions increase in number, prece
dents thereby, multiply, successful
lawyers are largely becoming those
who can find in the multitudinous and
multifarious volumes of reports of
thirty-eight States, and of the United
States courts the latest judical pronun
ciamento on the question in dispute.
It is clearly a matter of chance, or
rather of industry, and the client who
has the lawyer of stronger constitu
tion and greater perseverance is more
than apt to win:
It is thus clearly the duty of the
press to advocate the adoption by our
young men of other spheres of activ
ity than that of law. When our aver
age rises to that of France, then and
not till then should the legal fac
tories our law schools resume
Tations. Times-Democrat.

CONGRESS AND FARMERS'
STITUTES.
IN-
"VVe observe that a number of our
exchanges are inclined to question the
wisdom of the appropriation by Con
gress of $2,000 to each State to be
expended under the direction of the
Secretary of Agriculture for Institute
meetings. We think, however, it is
occasioned by a misapprehension as to
the manner of use of this $2,000.
It might, indeed, become an injury
if the Secretary should take the man
agement out of the hands of those
who in each State are well acquainted
with the wants of the section, and
presume to dictate who should speak
' and teach in all places. But this
would be a stretch of authority which
could not be expected, as even a small
portion of common sense must be ac
corded to any person occupying the
position of a member of the Presi
dent's Cabinet. Give us the $2,000
and the Institutes in all our States.

THE FARMER,
The BactMejHlie Country!
It is a conceded fact in the minds of every busi
ness man that the commercial status of every com
munity is greatly dependent on the farmers of our
-country ; in fact, so much so that should ill fortune
visit the fields of our never ceasing toilers, then the
merchants of our city would be forced .to retreat.
Therefore, let us as business men aid and shield the
"the farmers," whom I consider the hackboneof
every community, from every impediment that is
-likely to retard their progress.
Mr. L. C. Bagwell, having removed his stock of
- Caskets, Coffins, Burial Robes and everything in
the Undertaking line, to the corner of East Martin
and South Blount Sts., is folly prepared to accom
modate everybody, both in the city and elsewhere,
