The District Attorney is the icrvant or the
law ; it Is not moro his duty to convict guilt
by legal evidence, than it ia to guard tho
innocent and falsely accused. Ho is an agent
ejected bv tha nponlo to do justice between
the Cotnmonwnftlth and these who break bcr
laws. He should not therefore, ho subjected
to the necessity of eonrtinf? popularity in the
ranks or uny ono destinctive party but feci
that, in the minds of tho people, as well as in
bis own conscience, be is acquitted of all
political pnrtiatilies and obligations which
might misdirect, or, be supposed nnduly to
controf liis action. He is required lo possess
due knoaiige of, and experience in tho
'ecienco mid practice of tho law, because
poblit interests, with the safety of cociety;
tho lites, character mid freedom or individuals
are, in a large degree, committed to his pro.
