I concede that lawyers are net prose to rush matters, but I wish te pre test against the iT-ateotkiia that they are respcasibl for all the timethst's lest by the blind goddess In her work as judicial welghmaater. It seems ts me that ths court themselves' sre act as expedious ss they might be. nor as ambitious to savatbe district's time. Judgs Baxter declared !a tbe MDler-rnltt case that' be wouMa't tolerate any delay, but that Is tbe only instance.

I may add. that It all lawyers are charged as much a for transcripts as I am. and I presume they are, the court stenographers maks enough money on the aid te give them a good living. Indeed. I bare been told by earn of them that their salaries are practically clear. t Casts Fees Baa4reel a Day, - Thus, you see, tb lawyer save really leas to answer for whea there I delay than bar the Judges, and If they are pro crastinating, , why eon t the , court pat . a Stop to It by simply refuslngr te delay mat ter ftr any but tb very beat ef reasons?
