rxeCution of the Liquor Law.


A yery common complaint has existed that
the Maine Law has not been properly enforc-
ed by our city authorities what justice
1t may not be necessary now to inquire
There have doubtless been difficulties in the
way not easily perceived or understood by the
community at large.
An objection has been urged that the public
sentiment has not favored rigid enforce
ment; and also that if an issue were made ID
the city, whether there should be license or
prohibition, the result would at least be doubt
full. This latter objection, however, is wholly
without force, since the law is plain, and the
oath of Office requires the execution OF the
law.
But whatever the ground of complaint hitdl
erto it is pretty manifest from the records OF
the police court that Mayor Stevens has an
eve to these violations of the law, by making
regular seizures and causing prosecutions,
while Judge Kingsbury is not so particularly
Q sharp-as indeed he never has been-to dis
cover technical objections to forms of warrant
and the like, as not only to eyade the force Of
the law, but practically to modify its provis-
ions.
This is progress in the right direction; and
the course of those officials in enforcing the
statute will be sustained by the people what
ever their estimate of the law, because it is 6
law, and constitutional law, even if in the
Judgment of many its enactment was not ex-
pedient. itit 20 @ -
la A great moral objecti is not often secured by
spasmodic effort. Violators of whatever law
especially of the liquor law, do not SO much
fear momentary excitement, which accom-
plishes great deal perhaps in little time
and then settles down in utter indifference, a
they do the quiet, steady enforcement of law
and the moral certainty of its execution. 1
they discover fixed determination, calm, set
tied purpose on the part of the authorities
they are more apt to yield-to abandon a traf
fic which requires constant and unremitting
watchfuiness lest it be suddenly overthrow
and themselves involved in heavy penalties
then they are under pitiful, impulsive, ant
yet more stringent policy.
We commend the authorities, therefore, fol
the course they are pursuing, and trust tina
the liquor dealers of all grades will find tn
traffic SO annoying and expensive, to say moth
ing of higher considerations, that they will a
once and forever abandon it. 9i

y EXECUTIVE PATRONAGE. = Yesterdays

larged. We have already mentioned the names

while, it should be understood that the pre-
rogative of the President admits of a defence
by arguments which are at least respectable
though the Advertiser seems to be incapable

The Methodists on the State of the Country

3 The Methodists on the State of the Country.
The series of resolutions in reference to ma
tional affairs, adopted by the Methodist Con-
ference which has just closed its session at
Lewiston, may, we think, be regarded as OF
more than ordinary interest and significance.
As an expression of the deliberate convictions
in regard to great public questions of any con-
siderable religious body, they would be enti-
tied to weight, but they represent something
more than this. The position of the Metho-
dist denomination is in some respects pecu-
liar one. Not only is it by far the most extern
sive of all the Protestant sects in the country
but from the peculiarities of its organization,
from the nature of its ministrations, and in
some respects also from the spirit of its teach
ings it is brought into more intimate relations
Z with theogreat body of the common people
than perhaps any other. As necessary con-
sequence, therefore, it is in an especial man
per the representation of the sentiment of the
masses. Its voice is emphaticaly the voice Of
the people; and that consideration cannot fail
to invest with special significance such ut
terances as the following: ~

is not at all pleased with the con

latures. On the contrary he is high
ly displeSsed with them. As Presi-
dent of the United States he went to
the utmost verge of generosity, in
order to encourage the rebel leaders
to repent and act as National men.
He was determined to try the influ1

radicalism had hitherto failed to

them to elect loyal men to Congress.
