It can not be Executed.

1t is the common argument Of those OPP
posed to the enactment Of stringent laws
against the liquor traffic that "they can not
be executsd'--" they can't he enforced" say
they. This was the peculiar strong argu-
ment especially in the City of New York,
whore, it was said, such n conglomerated
mass or persons form the community, that
they would resist their execution TO blood
shed. But the Mayor If that City has de-
monstrated that thi is not true, even of the
rowdies and villains Of that great Sodom.--
1t is contrary to the law of that State to sell
intoxicating drinks on the Sabbath day but
Notwithstanding, more than two thousand
kept their shops open regularly, in New York
City on the Sabbath. The violation had been
winked at by previous Mayors, and no decided
steps taken to put a stop to it. But Mayor
Wood sue eeded, in one month, in closing
every one, even anon such n mixed multi
tude Of characters as are known to be en-
gagged in the traffic in New York. And will
any one pretend to say that we have such a
set of desperadoes in North Carolina, or the
Southern States anywhere, that just and
righteous laws can not be enforced over
them-or in other words, that because bad
men, it is feared, will resist the law, therefore
the law must not be adopted thus allowing
our worst class Of citizens to dictate what
kinds oflaws we shall have! Garry out this
position, aud are not all our laws mere ropes
Of sand, and utterly valueless for the protec.
ton Of society?
But it is q little remarkable, that the fear
Of non.execution should COM only from those
opposed 10 the enactment Of stringent laws,
If they really believe such avs can not be
enforced, why their mortal dread of them
Ifthey are sincere, they should desire theil
passage because they could then go on un
m~olested in thor work Of desolation ant
death. 1t won't do! Give US the law, an
the authorities will SEQ to it that no man o
set Of men shall set themselves abore the lay
and defy its execution. IL wH be enforced
