those w.:ose systems are delicate and run-down, may use it with the same
good results, and equally without fear of any unpleasant or injurious after
effects. Next in importance to removing the cause of any disease is the

THE COUNTRY LAWYER
SAVANNAH. Ga., May 30.—The an-
. lual convention of the Georgia Bar
\s/belation was called to order at
Hotel Tybee, on Tybee Island, this
.norning, at 10 o’clock, with a large at
tendance of members present. Many
*>f the leading lawyers of Georgia were
n the assemblage. »
The convention was called to order
ay Judge A. L. Miller, of Macon, pres
ident, and Mr. Orville A. Park, of the
/tame place, sat as secretary. Reports
of several committees were received,
and then came the principal feature of
the morning session, the address of
Hon. Champ Clark. Congressman from
Missouri. "The Country Lawyer as a
Factor in Public Affairs,” was the sub
ject of Mr. Clark’s address, and he
treated It with a classic touoh. His
address abounded, too. in humorous
anecdotes. Portions of his speech were
as follows.
"As to the much debated question
whether a lawyer should accept em
ployment in a case in which he be
lieves or knows his would-be client in
the wrong. I shall say only this: Every
lawyer must settle that with his own
conscience, his own self-respect and
hi s own standard of professional
•thlcs; but I have a deep seated con
viction which nothing can ever change
even In the estimation of a hair that
no Influence whatsoever, except a
sense of duty, patriotism and humani-
lerlanlsm should ever control a law
yer’s political opinion or conduct, for
these affect not only individuals tem
porarily, but all who now live or may
hereafter live within the broad confines
of the republic and until the earth
shall perish with fervent heat.
”1 rejoice with exceeding great Joy
that no country lawyer made the sin
ister suggestion—the rtiost sinister ever
mnde by any prominent American—
that If legislation does not furnish the
Federal Government all the powers
wanted, ‘sooner or later constructions
of the constitution will be found to
vest the power miere it will be exer
cised.’
"Mr. Elihu Root, secretary of war
under one President and secretary of
stHt< under another, attained the ‘bad
eminence* of siigge«tlng that the courts
be tampered with In order to strain ‘or
stretch the powers of the Federal Gov
ernment In order to suit the Ideas of
htmsolf and other ultra-Hamiltonians.
Mr. Root Is the head of the New York
bhr. His suggestion means that justice
is to he corrupted at the fountain—a
suggestion that should be repugnant
to lover of the Republic without regard
to pilitlc.il affiliations. His Idea, if
put Into practice, would convert the
courts Into engines of oppression more
hateful than autocratic power exer
cised openly by a Caesar or a Napo
leon. Much of the execration in which
the memory of Aaron Burr, Is held Is
diic to the immorality expressed In his
well-known dictum: ’Whatever is
boldly asserted and plausibly main
tained In law.’ Good men did not be
lieve that, and they did not take kind
ly to the brilliant man, part of whose
ored it was. Good men will not in
dorse Mr. Secretary Root’s Immoral
and unpatriotic proposition to acquire
unconstitutional and illegal powers for
the Federal Government through un
warranted and dishonest constructions
by the courts. It is a pleasure to note
that before he made that astounding
suggestion his name was frequently
coupled with the Presidential nomina
tion. but since he made it he is utter
ly and most properly Ignored in that
highly honorable connection.
"I summon all lawyers—especially
all • country lawyers—everywhere to

NEW YORK, May 30.—The moment
that he finished a full confession of the
murder of Amelia Staffeldt in police
headquarters at Flushing. L. I., today,
Henry Becker declared to the magis
trate.
“The officers have made me make
this statement, but it is not true. 1
will tell you my own statement now
I am innocent of the crime. I never
killed anybody, and I did not kill this
girl.”
Magistrate Connorton, to whom
Becker had made his statements,
pointed out the conflict of them, where
upon Becker said: "I only struck her
with the back of the knife, I did not
intend to kill her.”
The magistrate held Becker for the
grand jury without bail.
An attempted criminal assault on a
five-year-old girl in Corona. L. I., to
day gave rise to the suspicion that
Henry 'Becker might not. after all,
have been the assailant of Amelia
StaffeldL The culprit in today’s out
rage ivas arrested and he answered
fairly well the description given o!
the man seen running away in the cab
bage patch adjoining the lot in which
the Staffeldt girl was murdered about
the time the girl Is bolieved to have
been killed. The scene of the Staf
feldt tragedy is not far idistant from
the place where today’s assault oc
curred.
The victim today was Marie Luck,
the daughter of John Luck, of Corona.
The child was playing near her fath
er’s house, when a rough looking young
man approached ber and seizing her
around the waist, threw her to tho
ground. The child’s cries were heard
by her father who ran to her aid. On
seeing him approach, the man took .to
his heels. Luck mounted a. horse and
joined by a police officer and several
neighbrtrs captured the assailant. The
prisoner gave his name as Leon Gra
ham and said he lived in Brooklyn. He
gave his age as 17 years, but looked
older. He denied having been in the
neighborhood when Amelia Staffeldt
was murdered.
