A3 TO 8HY8TERING Some Prstty Strong Talk From Mr. J. C. Otts. Discussing the disbarment proceedings that have originated in Spartanburg. former So'icitor J. C. Otts on last Friday delivered himself to the Herald as follows: "As you know, I have declined to discuss this case, or to furnish copies for the press, until the matter came up in the supreme court, next Tuesday. But inasmuch as it is now a court record, I will say, I expect to be before the supreme court next Tuesday and propose what I deem a proper order. "This matter has been under ad vlsement for nearly a year. A code of legal ethics was adopted by the local bar association, upon my motion, simply because there was a crying need for them. I do not say that Mr. Sims Is the only unethical lawyer at this bar, but he is undoubtedly the most notorious. If there are others, they will be brought before the court in due time. The only wonder is that the Spartanburg bar has endured, and what is worse, permitted the public to be afflicted by shystering so long. It is such conduct that has caused a wholesale criticism of the lawyers generally. I had hoDed that some of the older lawyers, and who had been members of this bar longer than I. would have taken the initiative in this matter. The younger members of the bar usually have not hesitated to align themselves for a higher standard. "This is but the beginning. Every lawyer is a debtor to his profession; there Is no middle ground. Such proceedings are not pleasant, and the man who steps out and Institutes them may '( have to bear the 111 will, and be a target for the malice of the guilty. It was a realisation of this which kept some lawyers, and others, from Joining In this petition. The confidential Information which we are not at liberty to use, and the reasons assigned by some people for shirking a plain duty is enough, sometimes, to make a man lose faith in humanity. "The fear of being misunderstood, of losing a client, a patient, a customer. or a vote. Is the curse of this community. Shyster lawyers multiply the bar are ultra-conservative, but they usually show more disinterested patriotism than any other class or i profession. Yet as lawyers, we have let this class of lawyers run roughshod over the community entirely too long. All condemn such practices but leave it to some other man to do the hou8ecleanlng. This applies to every less and profession. It Is true in ' heen timidity and po lit leal cowardice that has brought conditions in South Carolina to where they are. The men who know better are too much afraid of losing a vote, of being blackmailed or boycotted; the fear of loss of custom, patients, clients; yes, even in the pulpit, I fear, has fastened many of the evils upon us which afflict our community. "I have no patience with the longfaced hypocrite who prays for 'Thy kingdom come,! and for law, order, decency, etc., and then, for a few paltry dollars, rents a house for near-beer stands or something worse: who criticises the officials for lawlessness, and has not the manhood to keep his name off a petition for the pardon of a guilty criminal. The good man. so-called, who shirks a public duty, is a traitor to his county; as much so as the man who gives food and shelter to the enemy." ? The Columbia correspondent of the News and Courier reports that there is much political Interest in a speech that Governor Blease is to deliver from the court house steps in Anderson next Saturday, because some of the politicians are claiming that the pardoning of John Emerson ana John Ellison have hurt the governor's popularity in that county. ? Jesse Wolf, a mill operative, and Robert Ward, a Postal telegraph lineman, recently presented by the Spartanburg grand jury for alleged connection with the attack on the jail last summer, have given them- < selves up to the solicitor and been released on 11.000 bail. ? Ninety-nine paroles and one pardon from the penitentiary of the state were announced from the governor's office last Sunday as the governor's Thanksgiving offering to the prisoners of the state. The paroles are dated November 25. AT THE CHURCHES. BAPTIST. Prayer meeting Wednesday evening at 7.30 o'clock. $ptrfal Soticfs. U. 0. C.'t Will meet with Mrs. D. E.
