FRIDAY, JULY 24, 1914'. Public Lawyers. From Canadian Courier. . Surely thereisa. great lesson. to be learned from Lord Mersey’s method’ of conducting an investigation. As Can- adians, we must admit we are lacking in directness and thoroughness. Our law. courts are still wound round and 'round with red tape.. At times. it seems asif the courts existed: to: pre- justice. Our judges and our lawyers all display the same characteristics. It .isafi class. fault, not an individual fault. Sbme day Canada; will adopt a sys- tem of public. lawyers, hired by the- ;state.. These will be men who will. 'like Lord Mersey, brush aside techni- calities instead of creating them. They will reduce the cost of legal pro- cedure fifty per cent. Instead of tak- ing one or two years to get a final de- cision in a big law suit, it will" be de livered in a month or two. A. few. days ago, the Jews of Tor-_ ‘ onto decided to establish a tribunal of their own, to settle all disputes be- tween themselves cheaply and quickly. They find Canadian civil courts wholly unsatisfactory. This must be the case, so long as a lawyer is paid ;according to the number of letters he writes, the length of the brief he pre- pares, and the number of hours be ap- pears in court. They have come to public doctors in England, Canada, .must soon adopt a system of public doctors and public ilawyers,.. so as to save both the nerves and the money of thosewho». find it . I necessary to employ the services of these professions. " The Party Press ' How much reliance can be placed upon the statements of partizan news- paper organs is illustrated by the 'ap- pended clippings from the two VViuni- peg morning. papers of the same-date : “The splendid ovation to the- Premier ashe rose to speak, the marked interest with which his every word was listened to, was not only a worthy and deserved tribute to a great man, but a well-earned endorsement of the progressive policies that have marked. the {cartoon-years of‘his administration.”â€"-The Telegram. “Sir Rodmond, in starting to speak, had a difficult time in get- ting:.a~ favorable - hearing, When he mentioned" the nameof T.,C.'

' ______â€"_â€"=â€"â€"-â€"-â€"_- Army Worm Appears in Victoria The Gazette is informed by Mr. Knight, District Representative at Lindsayj of: the Department of Agriâ€" culture, that a small outbreak of the army worm has been discmered on the farm of Mr. John Robertson, of the Scotch. Line, South Verulam. So far the pest has been found on atwo acre piece of corn. A, part of this has been pretty well stripped and the worms are gradually working across the field. Steps are being taken to poison them and to prevent their spreading, by ploughing a furrow round the field, throwing the earth to- wards the com. This method leaves the perpendicular. side of the furrow on the outside and. prevents the worms from climbing over. ‘H'oles- should then be dug at intervals of a few rods along the furrow. The cater- pillars fall into these and may then be easily destroyed. A word of can- tion should be, put in. here-regarding poisoning. Any corn, hay or grain which has been sprayed will be unfit for stock food. This does not apply so much to roots. [is there is- no- saying where this pest may break out within the next is warned to be on the watch. Any- thing of a suspicious nature should be reported at once to the Department of Agriculture, Lindsay. Experience ianrant county has shown that when once a foothold is secured'it is almost impossible to check the progress of the pest. When full grown the worm is about one and one-half inches long, of a dark gray color and striped with black, yellow and green shades- Specimens may be seen at the office of the De- partment of Agriculture, Lindsay. 9* County Warden's Outing _..._ The steamer Lintonia. went through the locksgoing north on Tuesday with a large crowd on the annual excursion of the warden of Victoria County.

Mr. Broman was out at his chicken farm several miles from Baker's Yards last Friday, and when last seen was preparing his noon meal. Nearby neighbors declare that two men in an auto drove up and that it was thought that Broman. was induced to enter. the- machine. A ear answering the descript- tion was later seen near Koppel and a man who knows Bromun declares that he saw him in company with a number of others board a northâ€"bound train and that tickets had been purchased. for Fenelon Falls, Ontario. Canada. County Detective George D. Cope- land'is'in the vicinity of the Falls and has been notified of the disappearance of“ the local man and instructed to keep- watch for him there. It is echcted< that the missing man will be located within the next few days and it not be- lieved that he will have suffered any harm. The missing man has since been lip cated and he has not sufiered any harm and is not likely-to.
