if an editor had written such a coni-
inunicution and we had criticised him
for it as we' have Mr. Seymour. we
would not' retract one word. It would
have been discrulititble tonn editor. or
niiy man of tiny other profession or call~
tug except a lawyer: and had we been as
familiar with the ethics of the profesv
sion of law as Mr. Sgymour evidently is
we would not be apologizing now to
him for criticising his professional acts.
Haring often heard lawyers denounce
in unmeasured terms witnesses and
counsel. and charge the vilest motives
upon honeet men. we supposed that
they possessed too much fairness to use
other than the same weapons ostbeir
foo in soy encounter. But we didn‘t
judge correctly. it seems. and ignorance
being no excuse in law. we are virtually
without one.
But so long as we live we ore noxious
and willing to learn. and we now see
whereinwe were wrong. And cheerfully
“wit it. Until we had given the sub-
ject the careful consideration suggested
by Mr. Seymour‘ii courteous note. we
thought it was unprofessional for it law-
yer to try his cases through a newspaper
or before the bar of public opinion. and
that for a fee to ask such questions and
to make the charges in the communion-
tion he published in the flour was a use
of legal talent rarely if ever before re-
corded or mmsidered justifiable. We
now see that we may hove lieen mis-
tnken in supposing that Mr. Seymour
received any fee. Hod not the commu-
nication been signed “Of Counsel for
the Butter-5’ Association.“- we should not
hove been led to. such a supposition.
Notwithotnndinx our experience has

The Iliufiicsu Outlook.
0n the prospects of busmcxv the opin-
ions of experienced business men are of
value. and therefore the following. from
:i trade circular issued recently. by This.
J. l‘ope N Run. of New York. deiilers in
pig. iron and metnls. will be found inter-
esting as u statement of the situation
from tho the view of practiciil eastern
men. They say: “Trude continues in a
atate of stiigiiutiun: decided movement is
unloolied Efor till the end of l“l‘lll‘tlttl‘_\'.
iiltliougli it is very noticeable that several
large works. idle during the lam summer
and autumn monthsdiiivc resumed work.
while few ‘or none have stopped during
the pint iiiotitli. although tit the close of
December it is usuul with many to Stop
work for a time to clean tip. The great
reduction in food and other living experi-
ses is necessarily making low wages go
much further than former high wages zit
much higher costs of living. Labor con-
tinues to suffer from lack of employ ment.
and from lowering wages: and trade.
while workmen of all kinds have little or
nothing to spend. must he dull and dan-
gerous. The feeling of dissatisfaction
among the working classes is increasing:
the numbers. completucsv. and cliwcness
of their organizations. the often turbu—
lent. spirit of their general leadera. pre-
sent very serious questions for the con-
sidcrittion of the employing and leading
classes .of the country. All efforts are
demanded by thesitutition for the letting
loose of the currents that shall move
commerce forward and start the spring
of action in manufacturing and other
enterprises. It is important to note the
favor that “protection“ is gaining among
the nations of Europe. In London the
Chamber of Commerce has started it par~
liumentary inquiry on the subject. nod
shown at recent meetings a decided anti
free trade bias. and the agricultural
community decided duties to be levied
on cereals. Already in France, Germany
and Italy. ctc.. public attention is fast
concentrating on questions of the promo
tivc policy imitated by the United
Suites.” ‘ _
In the some circular is quoted the
o inion of Mr. Leiter of the great firm
0 Field. Leitcr & 00.. of Chicago.wliicb
it is well to quote nannotber phase of
opinion from the standpoint of the
.thoroughly practical business mun of the
West. Mr. better says: “I regard the
country as in most excellent financial
condition. fOur grain product in nu-
usually large. and we will find it fair
market for all of it. India which has
been our princiml com titor in the
market of the old world. nda itself sub-
jrct to such actions nnd fees that it can
scarcely sell its cereals in Liverpool at a
profit. while the Americnn noer is
