  • Edmund Barton and the 1897 Federal Convention
    The Art of Consensus: Edmund Barton and the 1897 Federal Convention The Art of Consensus: Edmund Barton and the 1897 Federal Convention* Geoffrey Bolton dmund Barton first entered my life at the Port Hotel, Derby on the evening of Saturday, E13 September 1952. As a very young postgraduate I was spending three months in the Kimberley district of Western Australia researching the history of the pastoral industry. Being at a loose end that evening I went to the bar to see if I could find some old-timer with an interesting store of yarns. I soon found my old-timer. He was a leathery, weather-beaten station cook, seventy-three years of age; Russel Ward would have been proud of him. I sipped my beer, and he drained his creme-de-menthe from five-ounce glasses, and presently he said: ‘Do you know what was the greatest moment of my life?’ ‘No’, I said, ‘but I’d like to hear’; I expected to hear some epic of droving, or possibly an anecdote of Gallipoli or the Somme. But he answered: ‘When I was eighteen years old I was kitchen-boy at Petty’s Hotel in Sydney when the federal convention was on. And every evening Edmund Barton would bring some of the delegates around to have dinner and talk about things. I seen them all: Deakin, Reid, Forrest, I seen them all. But the prince of them all was Edmund Barton.’ It struck me then as remarkable that such an archetypal bushie, should be so admiring of an essentially urban, middle-class lawyer such as Barton.

  • Imagereal Capture
    No More Cabs on the Rank? Some Reflections About the Future ofLegal Practice" His Excellency The Honourable Gordon Samuels AC Governor ofNew South Wales It is a privilege to have been invited to deliver the Sir Ninian Stephen Lecture for 1998. This occasion honours one of Australia's outstanding jurists, and a man who has given remarkable service to his own, and the international, community. I appreciate that the title I have chosen for this paper falls a little short of total revelation. It is hardly in the "Road to Damascus" category. I had notintended to be deliberately obscure; or to availmyselfofthe academic technique ofchoosinga title of wide and indefinite ambit in order to per­ mit the maximum intellectual manoeuvre during the period of gestation.But I must confess that the use of the word "reflections" does allow some change of focus in respect of the conclusions to which these musings may lead. Now let me be more explicit. The reference to "cabs on the rank" identifies a fundamental rule of conduct at the Bar (and at other independent Bars in Australia) of such sanctity as to have been described as the barrister's equivalent of the doc­ tor's Hippocratic oath. l The cab-rank rule or principle may be described in this way:- "No brief or instructions may be refused, whether to act as an advocate or to advise, unless the barrister is professionally committed already, has notbeen offered a proper fee, is professionally embarrassed by a prior conflict of inter­ est or lacks sufficient experience or competence to handle the matter".2 * This article is a recension ofthe 1998 Sir NinianStephenLecture.
