 Our Contributors. The author of the manuscript suggested by the death of Mr. Justice Kekewich, which we publish in this number, is a lawyer who has practiced extensively in London for many years, and whose views upon English judicial appointments are entitled to great weight. Yhile he feels it his duty to call to the attention of the profession the possibility of abuse attending upon their system, for obvious reasons he prefers not to disclose his identity. • GEORGE P. COSTIGAN, JR., is Dean of the Law School of the University of. Nebraska and has previously contributed articles upon a variety of topics of interest to the profession. His early experi ence in active practice gives added force to his views upon the proposed code of legal ethics. JrixjE BLOUNT has contributed to this issue the fourth of his series of articles on " Circuit Riding in the Philippines." We believe that in this number he shows exceptional ability as a writer of short stories. The brief narrative on Lincoln, which we include in this number, is based upon an interview by Mr. Wright with Mr. Somers, who felt himself unable to prepare the anecdotes for publication. PERCY N. BOOTH is a graduate of Harvard College and the Har vard Law School, -who, since his graduation, has been in practice in Louisville. He has shown his public spirit by taking an active interest in all local movements for civic betterment and was one of the counsel employed by the Citizens' Association to contest the elections which he so graphically describes.
