PUBLISHING THE LAWS.

| A number Of papers are advocating the
proposition OF publishing the laws enact
ed Dy the Legislature, Ia one paper IL
every county in the State. Inc en- ire
laws have been cOditied by . Commission
authorized by the last Legislature, and
| they will report q code at the coming
session. If they are adopted, as they
probably will be in some shape or other,
there will be an entirely new code Of
laws for the State; for is is said the
changes suggested are radical. How are
these laws to be placed before the people
Not one in q thousand owns . volume OF
State laws. or has access to them. Pub.
LEGATION IN the newspapers is the only
practicable way to make them generally
known. Yet, when the proposition comes
up, it will be vehemently opposed, prin.
cipally on the ground of expense, and by
no class harder than the lawyers. When

[0 and favorite quotation with them
that "every man is supposed to know
the law" He is supposed to know it,
when the means of knowing it are not
within his reach. The cost Of publishing
general laws in the newspapers will not
be 80 great as some imagine but however
great, the benefit to the people will be
greater than the cost. Even law of 50
general interest as the game law is not
understood by large majority of the
people, and we have numerous requests
to publish it, The same may be said of
every law of general interest.
We have understood that the Codify.
ing Commission have abolished the pub
location of tax lists, saying that people
know they owe taxes, and it is not nee
essary t. notify them; but that delin-
quent lands shall be sold without notice
Instances in every county have run up
to the thousands, in which, by some over
sight, mistake, or even dishonesty ofofi
GERS, lands have been advertised for sale
as delinquent, when the owners have re.
ceipts for taxes IN full. The only way
in which they discovered that they stood
on the books as delinquent, was by the
publication of their lands in the delin.
quent tax lists. But by this snap judg-
ment process, mans lands may go to
sale, ami the title pass out of his hands.
without his knowledge, and when he has
receipts for the taxes. At all events, it
will lead to tedious and expensive litiga-
ton. We understand, also, that the
Commission have abolished certain no.
tees by publication to non>residents,
when suit is brought against them. 1t
will be happy time, when the lawyers
have the rights of the people in their own
hands, and can bring suits, take judy
ments, and sell property, all in the dark.

ing about it. except when some friend
happens to find it out, and informs him !
This is question that it behooves the
people to look to. It not only interests
the printers, hut the people still more.
We do not think that the people have
vet arrived at that confiding stage where
they are content to go to sleep. and let
the LAWYERS manage their affairs.-Kan-

The credit system has brought more
trouble on the people of this country
than almost any other evil. The con.
traction of useless debts and the pay
ment Of high rates Of interest is the legit.
innate fruits Of that system. The cos,
Of articles purchased is enhanced by
this evil. 1t is the bane of poor mans
life. The man who pays cash gets a
better bargain than the one who buys
on credit.

The Republican party promised that

their grade, or for some reason were not exam
ined in them. The standing of Laura Arnett is
not recorded above as she has not taken all the
