BLECKLEY'S BABY
scores an Honor
Attanta. July 31.-(Speclal.)-Ch1of
Justice Logaa H. Bleckley's new baby
boy was the biggest lawyer at the meet
ing of the State Bar Association here
today.
The youngster, who Is yet on the sun
ny side of G months, was unanimously
elected an honorary member of the ae-
sbclntion and resolutions passed request
ing fcls acceptance In writing.
The distinguished chief Justice whose
patriarchal features are familiar
throughout the state, was Bllghtly em
barrassed at the compliment. It wna
altogether a unique occasion, starting
young Muster Edwin Harrison Bleckley
out In life under nusptceB that ought .to
distinguish him in the profession of his
honored father if he should follow the
paternal precept In choosing a cureer.
After the preliminaries of opening the
convention, Judge Bleckley,who is pres
ident of the Bar Association, Introduced
the all-important subject In hls annual
address as follows:
'Gentlemen of the Association: The
year of my presidency had been distin
guished and rendered memorable by the
birth of a .son. whom I have already ded
icated to tho law. Thus, mindful of the
udvlce of Lord Bacon. I have done some
thing for the profession. I may bo par
doned for contrasting m> better for
tune with that of my illustrious rival.
President Cleveland, whose official off
spring Is not of hls own professional
gender. Considering our relative ages,
it seems notewortny tnat the prealutnl
of the Georgia Bar Association nus ac
complished more in one term than the
president of the United States has ac
complished In two. Desiring, however,
not to be ungenerous In my triumph, I
frankly say tnat my paternal adminis
tration has not been agitated or dis
turbed by the tariff, or silver, or the
senate, or Dole, Ur any unfortunate
queen, or by any unsteady footing on
the platform, or the unsteady footing
thereon of Uther people, or by any
strenuous effort to lead or gulue The
Democracy, contenwtlie people, protect
the mails, keep interstate commerce In
motlUn and govern the country. O'hut
cares ana vexations like these might
lead to feminine ccnsequertces In Die
-.residential mansion, whether at Wash-
ngton or in Atlanta, I am free to ad
mit. And. I add with full sincerity, that
under the clrcumsftinces Mr. Cleveland
has done remarkably well. Besides, for
my own part, I am quite willing to wait
on hbn and see what he will do here-
alter. An executive magistrate of hls
magnitude ought to have a new rial."
Tne convention then got- down -to
business. On motion of Hon. Washing
ton Dessau of Macon, Judge W. A.
Henderson of Tennessee and Judge
Green of Texas, both prominent Jurists,
were complimented with seuts on the
stand. An order of business was re
ported, and under it the reports of sev
eral Important committees were an
nounced. i
The feature of -the day's sesslonwvna
the report of the committee on Juris
prudence and Taw reform. This report
comprehends a series of important
changes In the Judiciary system of the
state, as well ns new Uws itnd changes
In the methods of pnaoilce and powers
of Judges. It is, therefore, of deep in
terest to the people of the whole state
as well as to the legal profession.
Starting out with tho proposition to
add two more justices to tho supreme
oourt, tho report says:
"Mr. President: Attention is caMed to
the pending amendment to the consti
tution of this state, by which it Is pro
posed to increase the number-of su
preme court Judges from three to live.
There is a practical unanimity of senti
ment In the legal profession as well us
with' Intelligent persons generally In
Savor of this change, which render un-
nocessry any elaboration on the sub
ject. or to oaii for more at the hands
of your committee than to recommend
that this most Important measure re
ceive 'She benefit that twill naturally
arise before -the publkrfrom its indorse
ment here, and your committee recom
mend that formal action be taken to
that effect, and submit herewith «i reso
lution covering the same for consid
eration of the Bar lAtsocialtlon. The sal
aries of the ahief Justice Should be
raised to 24,000 and Che associate Jus
tices to 23,000.
"It Is greatly to be doubted whether
the efficiency of Judicial administration
has been promoted by cutting up tho
state Into suoh a large number of cir
cuits. The number of judges being
thereby eo greatly Increased -has doubt
less added considerable influence in fix
ing small salaries. Your committee are
of opinion that to reduce she number
of circuits from 'twenty-three to fif
teen and Increase the salaries of ihe
Judges from 22.000 to 23.000 would be a
wise reform. Tho pay of twenty-three
Judges «t 23.000 la 244.000; the pay of
fifteen Judges -at 23,000 would be 245,000.
Tho state would thereby be at no In
creased expense, and by fixing the sal
ary at 23,000 the state and the public
would be able to command legal talent
equal to any or the very 4>est in the
profession.
"The circuit Judges should be re
moved as far as possible from local In
fluences. The system Is found to work
well in those states, ns. for Instance,
North Carolina, where the Judges tire
not assigned permanently to any one
circuit, but are required to rotate and
hold the court* of the different cir
cuits, and one after another upon a
roster, semi-annually, prepared by the
governor.
"It sometimes happens 'that by strong
local nfluence candidates are elected to
the bench in some one ciircult, but If
the legislature and the public at large
knew that when electing any one per
son to be Judge of any one circuit nom
inally the person thus chosen Was
really Ho be a Judge for the whole state
and would In turn hold the courts of
every oounty In the state, this must
necessarily exercise a very strong In
fluence In Inducing the appointing
power to be careful in making selec
tions. Under this system one Judge
would he chosen a resident of each
circuit, but rradtlcally bis duties, ex
cept possibly for convenience of access
In motions and chambers mailers, no
more a Judge of that circuit chan any
other In the state.
‘Judges ought either to be elected by
the people, or appointed by the gov-
#raar-wltk the advise sod consent of
the senate. Appointment by the gov
ernor is probably the best. But of ell

method* that ever trlM that of election
of Judges by tthe legislature is the most
objectionable*
“All provisions of law which restrain
the Judge presiding in trials In any
court from expressing opinions ibout
tho evidence, or as to what has or has
not been proven .ought to be repealed
nnd directly the contrary policy adopt
ed, by making it the duty of the Judge,
in nil oases—civil and criminal—to sum
up the evidence, but requiring him, of
course, to leave the Jury tree ultimately,
and in the last resort to determine mat
ters of fact under the evidence for them
selves. It is illogical and unwise to de
prive the profession and the public of
the knbwledge and skill existing in the
mind of a tr lined Judge for theml minis
tration of Justice and leave inexpe
rienced men in the Jury box to grope
about and run the hazard of error and
harm in their finding. If a man falls
in the street and there are bones brok
en or arteries cut society does not leave
it to a haphazard ccmmfttoo collected
from the bystanders to stanch ihe
blood or tio up the wounds, but these
duties are left to the practiced hand,
steady nerve and trained eye and brain
of the surgeon, who knows where tnd
how to cut It l* Just su bad to stay
the voice nnd hand of the Judge in a
criminal trial, where public Justice, hu
man rights and EbmitJmes numan Ufa
is at slake.
“Judges should have the power, as
they do in the United Staten courts, to
grant (at leapt one) new trhil on mo
tion and decided ore tenus; but in rase
of reftnuil to grant a mbtlon when made
in the manner heretofore practiced and
allowed by law tor the purpose of hav
ing the \erdict more solemnly reviewed
In the same court or upon writ of error.
“The entire law on the subject of the
prisoner's statement In criminal trials
ought to be repeated, and in lieu thereof
the prisoner ought to be allowed—not
compelled, hut' allowed—at his own op
tion. to become a witnesu In hls own
fuvtor; and upon hta electing to go ipon
the stand as a witness, the prisoner
ought to be aubject to cross-examination
like any other witness, or like any other
pirty fortifying in hls own case on a
civil cause.
