TOO G oovx1ui6.

There Is q growing feslins among
the people throughout the Unlou that
they are too much governed. Lsgis-
latures large in point Of number, yet
little In brains, meet at the various
State Capitals annually or bienhially,
a. tho case may be. and tinker the
laws until the most astute disciple Of
Blackstone Is unable to make head or
tail Of them. 'rhs result Is expenslve
lawsuits, and almost endless contro-
versy over the meaning Of words in
statutes ambiguous and unintelligible.
Tho people not emily have to pay leg
lslators for framing and passlng laws
unnecessary and Intellectual, but are
constantly called upon to pay large
sums to attorneys and % court fees for
tho settlement Of disputes which, II the
laws under which they arose were
properly drawn, would never have
arissn. Every newly fedged member
Of Assembly or Senate In our Legisla-
lures from SQUAD Hollow or Pork Al
ley thinks It Imperative upon him to
introduce at least one new Act and
lobby its passage during his first term
or at least to offer an amendment to
the criminal or civil practice Act. Too
often these neophytlc lawmakers at
tack the laws relating to the State rev
snue and place the finances OF State
In at least . disordersd, II not a dam
gsrous position. Our late Legislature
was peculiarly free from this mania
for revision Of the revenue laws, and
should receive due credit for Its abb
stinenoe In this particular.
This rage for legislation has encnm-
bered the statute books OF every State
with an immense quantity OF trash,
not only useless but harmful, and rem
dsred compilations and codes an ab'o-
lutte necessity net only to attorneys
and Judges but to almost every man
who Is engaged In business to q moder-
ate extent. Tho road laws school
laws and revenue laws are changed
50 frequently that tits almost! an im-
possibility for any public codlceri to
keep himself so sufficiently we'll posted

as to properly and legally discharge
his official duties. II Legislators, es-
peclally novisiates, could. learn to let
the law, alone until they were inoper-
alive, or their provisions became I'M
just or Intellectual, and then properly
a~ppreciating tho remedies necessary
to be enacted. consult attorneys or
~jurists a. to the best form Of language
to be employed In framing such reme-
dies, there would be fewer laws and
better ones. It Is q sad, fact that our
most intelligent men do not aspire to
legislative honors, and tho ordinary
legislator Of to-day can do almost any
thing far better than draft q law. The
truth long since snunciated that "the
world IS governed too much" finds
emphatic assent in the minds Of our
much l~egislated people. g II Legtsla-
lures were moro careful In the partlcu-
lars we have mentioned, there would

made will result In serleus conssquen-
