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 Black wool Nuns veiling 8 cents. Black Embroidered Mull 4 1-2 yards in piece, all for 50 cents.

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.
