 Our Contributors. Mr. E. J. MOORE received the degrees of Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Law at London, and is a barrister in practice at Harold's Cross, Dublin. In the belief that the subject of his sketch would prove of special interest to American lawyers of Irish descent, he decided to publish it in America. We are particularly fortunate in this issue in being able to print the address recently delivered before the Virginia Bar Association by Honorable WILLIAM H. TAKT. The candidacy for our highest executive office of one who has been eminent in our profession, and who has shown his appreciation of the pressing importance of reforms in our practice and procedure, makes his address of peculiar impor tance to the Bar. DONALD RICHBERG is a graduate of the Harvard Law School and is a member of the firm of Richberg & Richberg of Chicago, who has previously favored us with contributions both serious and entertain ing. We publish in this number an after-dinner speech recently delivered by him in Chicago. WILLIAM G. HASTINGS is Professor of Law in the Law School of the University of Nebraska. His article is a refreshing rejoinder to the somewhat sensational utterances with which we have been recently favored on the right of our courts to declare acts of legislature unconstitutional. Mr. BLYTHE of the Harvard Law School found time this summer to rummage among its dusty tomes and prove that his sense of humor can find expression in prose as well as in verse.
