 THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE LAW Judging from the way things were conducted last week at Dover Circuit Court the people are getting pretty we'll worked up on the point where they are deter mined that violations of the law shall be promptly punished. Four convictions for penitentiary offences and four men who nave dared to override the laws of the land con- demned to serve terms varying from one to twenty-one years in the peneten- tiary; That is the way the people of Pope have determined to measure out justice from now on. And that is as it should be. 1t is the only way to sub due the propensity for lawlessness which seems to abound in the depraved natures of some men. And this plan will subdus it. Whenever rogues and malfaetors find out that they cannot ss- cape the consequences of their evil deeds they will curb their propensity for evil-doing and we will have less crime and less expense of heavy crIm- inaI dockets. Therefore let the people keep their faces firmly set in the direction in which they nor seem to have turned them and let their frown and condemnation meet every law-breaker.
