AN ESSAY ON ELEMENTARY LAW
IN SCHOOL.
Bead by Robert M. Furlong before tbe
Teachers' Association.
[Concluded.]
Perhaps these questions could be
answered by some of the ex-legislators
who have represented this very dis
trict in past years. But I have only
shown the need of more legal learning
to insure better legislation. And is
there not also an equal need on the
part of those entrusted with execution
of the laws? Many of our officials can
not put a proper construction on one
third of the laws they are vested with
power to enforce. Can aught else
than poor government be expected
when such a state of affairs exist? Vol
umes might be written without ex
hausting this branch of the subject.
Let us look at another individual
duty. All citizens, no matter how
humble their sphere in life, are liable
to be called upon "to establish the
rights, to estimate the injuries, to
weigh the accusations, and sometimes
to dispose of the lives of their fellow
beings, by serving on juries." On this
point I quote the language of the com
mentator: "In this situation they
have frequently a right to decide, and
that upon their oaths, questions of
nice importance, in the solution of
which some legal skill is requisite;
especially where the law and the fact,
as it often happens, are intimately
blended together. And the general
incapacity, even of our best juries to do
this with any tolerable propriety, has
greatly debased their authority."
Should not this incapacity be re
moved? should not this deficiency in
the education of the people be inquired
into by educators? And should not
steps at once be taken to have law a
study in the public schools where the
people are educated? Bnt lam argu
ing this question too much from a sin
gle stand point. Having shown a
necessity for a better knowledge of law
among the people; having shown it to
be the duty of every citizen to possess
some degree of legal learning; who
then will question its utility as a
study?
But let us see some of the advantages
to be derived from It; Indeed there are
many. In this country, the very first
principle of our laws, the end and
scope of tbe constitution is civil liber
ty. It has been termed the corner
stone of the Republic,—the basis of
our laws. Paley, Christian, Blackstone
and other wnrnent writers on juris
prudence, have defined political or
civil liberty to be "the natural liberty
of mankind so far restrained by human
laws (and no farther) than is necessa
ry for the good of society."
Such being its meaidng, bow then
is the citizen who is ignorant of the
law, to know how far his natural lib
erty has been abridged by it, how far
his civil liberty extends? Can he en
joy civil liberty in its highest degree
when he does not know its limits?
Must riot his liberties be prescribed
within a narrow compass, who does
not know what the law allows or de
nies him, nor where it has drawn the
line of demarkation between right and
wrong? ixi i
Truly, our happiness as citizens or a
free country depends much, very much,
upon our knowledge of its laws. The
advantage derived from a practical
knowlede of law are almost inumer
able. To know how to draw up legal
documents, or writings, such as are
used in the transaction of ordinary
business 1» » branch of education that
is eminently useful, and should by no
means be neglected,
Los Angeles Daily Herald.
Indeed, it ia strange that so few
scholars outside the members of one
practical profession understand the
writing of contracts, mortgages, wills,
etc. Yet, not so strange either when
We know the schools afford them no
chance to learn it.
To the discredit of our own profes
sion I have known school masters who
could not correctly draw up a con
tract between themselves and trus
tees; and I have seen men claiming
to be scholars, who could not make a
promissory vote. Yet, is it to be won
dered at? Such papers can be hired
written It is true; so can most other
things be hired done. Well, such fees
give the poor pettifogger a chance to
live. Rut, as no sensible person will
longer question the utility of having
the elements of law learned by all
classes, and in every sphere of life, I
will not dwell longer on the advan
tages such learning affords, but will
take up the main point upon which
the question now hinges—its practica
bility as a study in the school room.
I fail to see any reason why law as a
study ia not just as practicable as is
any the sciences studied in the public
schools. Is is too difficult a study for
scholars? Scarcely so, we see young
men of average ability, not possessing
any of legal knowledge,enter a lawyer's
office, and in one year, or two at the
farthest, come out as a full-fledged
attorney.
They could scarcely have acquired a
practical knowledge of arithmetic or
grammar in the same length of time,
on the same conditions. Hence we
may infer, that as a study it is not so
diflicult but that a rudimentary knowl
edge of it may be acquired by any
scholar of average intellect.
Can it be possible that it is so ab
struce a science that it can be learned
only by those who are to become prac
tical professors of it? Or is it so sa
cred that all knowledge of it must
necessarily be confined within the
precincts of attorney's offices and the
walls of law universities?
Is it a dry, uninteresting study? It
can be made not only interesting but
pleasing also. The writings of some
of the commentators afford excellent
reading, and as a class room exercise
would certainly be very interesting.
The pages of Blackstone and Kent
are not only erudite but contain much
of aesthetics in literature. Surely
such a study would not be distasteful.
Let some of our book-makers compile
a series of text books from the works
of standard authors on elementary
law, having them so arranged as to be
expressly adapted for the use of com
mon schools.
They might be regarded something
after the manner of the "Progessive
Series of Arithmetics," or any other
series of school text books in use hav
ing primary, intermediate, practical
and higher grades of books.
As soon as pupils are sufficiently ad
vanced to commence the studies of
grammar or history, let them begin
their first lessons in the rudiments of
low. Let them learn the meaning of
the word government, and for what
purpose governments are instituted
among men; the different forms of
government; how they are conducted;
a republic, a monarchy, a despotism,
and their subordinate or inferior
branches, giving a separate chapter to
each, with appropriate questions.
Teach them that laws are necessary
for government, and as they farther
advance, let them learn the nature of
laws in general; make clear to their
minds those great principles of right
and wrong which laws are calculated
to uphold or suppress. Next give them
a lucid analysis of the Constitution of
the United States, keeping before their
minds that all our laws must be in
conformity with it. Next the consti
tution of their own State. Then any
modification of those divisions used
in the standard works, such as the
duties of citizens to their country;' the
relative duties of master and servant;
of husband and wife; of parent and
child; of guardian and ward. As they
advance to higher grades, give them
some practical knowledge as how con
veyances in real estate are made;
what is meant by personal property,
and how to write a bill conveying the
same; the writing of mortgages, deeds,
contracts, wills, etc. There scarcely
can be a more useful branch of learn
ing than this.
For a higher course give them (in a
condensed form), those laws that are
in some degree general throughout the
United States, and such portions of
the codes or statutory laws, as, a
knowledge of which would be most
useful. But as to the course of studies,
this 1b merely a rough outline, our
book makers can arrange that. I did
not intend at the outset to propose a
course, and have offered this crude un
digested theory only to show the prac
ticability of some such method.
Now then the highest course which
I have proposed would not be more
difficult than is compound partner
ship, equation of payments, or the
double rule of three, to the scholar
who studies arithmetic. The terms
used in the series, could (in a great
measure), be freed from the technical
ities of the legal profession, or at
worst could not be more difficult to
pronounce or memorize than are those
of the study of botany.
The pupil studies algebra, and has
to trace his way through a laba
rynth of symbolisms in search after
tne values of unknown quantities,
but in this study, all the things con
sidered are known, being simple prin
ciples and rules. So might it be com-
Sared with any other study, as regards
ifficulty of learning. But, says one,
"What! would you have all our child
ren become lawyers?" No, not profes
sional lawyers, unless they chosed
that honorable vocation; but I would
have them learn tbe laws by which
they are governed, and such practical
knowledge of legal business as they
will find use for in after life. But be
cause they learn the rudiments of that
science does it follow that they must
become practicing attorneys? Be
cause your children study industrial
drawing, geometry and measuration
of surfaces, are we to infer that they
are all to become architects, civil en
gineers or surveyors? Because they
study anatomy, physiology and hy
giene, must they necessarily become
practicing physicians? Because they
learn ihe ten commandments, the
Lord's prayer and the doxology, are
they all to become divines? It does
not necessarily follow that they shall.
But of what use will it be to our girls
to learn law? I cannot dwell on this
without being too prolix. In common
with some of tbe ablest educators in
the land, I hold that, what is neceo
LOS ANGELES, SATURDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 22, 1873.
wary for boys to study is well also for
girls to study.
Let the elements of law be taught in
all the schools and ■ institutions of
learning for both sexes, it will create
a taste for this useful branch of learn
ing, and a desire for a further knowl
edge of it. It will early implant ft
patriotic spirit by inspiring the youth
ful minds with n deep reverence for
their country and its institutions. It
will create a higher respect, and more
wholesome fear of the law, and thus
become a means of preventing crime.
It will have a tendency to obviate
much of the litigation in our courts,
and thus have a salutary influence on
society. It will become a credit to
our educational system, and prove con
ducive to the best interest of the
country.

Oakland. July 11.1872. J
Herewith I certify that Miss Josephine Dud
ley iias been a student in my department of
the University for five consecutive terms, viz:
from September, 1870, to April 3d, 1872. During
this time she studied the French, the Spanish
and the German languages, obtaining always
the highest marks for proficiency and attend
ance, her average credit mark for five terms
being 97 per cent.
On entering the University, Miss Lindley
Possessed already such knowledge of the
rench and Spanish Idioms as to be able to
speak them with ease, fluency, correctness,
and a pure pronunciation.
She may now be considered thoroughly fa
miliar with thetheoryand philosophy, as well
ns with the application of these two tongues;
nnd she may safely be recommended as a can
didate of great promise, for teaching the
French and Spanish languages.

TO THE FARMERS OF LOS

10 the new IMPROVED GANG PLOW, pa
tented by D. A. Manuel, of Napa, and adopted
by the Granges of this state. The points of
superiority are: Lightness of draft, It being a
centre draft; a castor wheel In the rear, which
makes it turn In a space sufficient to accom
modate its length: It has a falling pole and
can, by sliding, be adjusted to the driver's
weight, and removes all pressure from the
horses' necks. We only ask farmers to call
aud examine for themselves.
