TFTR SWnTT SPTJCTE'Tr rn zenr autcta cia 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 gird up tihelr loins for a fight against Rootism all along the line. Lawyers ma’de the constitution. It is both their privilege and their duty to defend it, attacked from ambush or in the open.
