THE NON ENFORCEMENT OF
LAW,

The vigorous assaults now Witnessed
not only in Texas, but throughout the
country generally, against certain
crimes or Objectionable social and pc
litical features, have their origin in the
non-enforcement OF the plain statutory
laws of the various State9. Legisla-
ton, at least in civilized communities,
is progressive. The necessities OF the
day are generally met by enactments
sufficient to cover the case and prevent
the trouble. The legislator is an exN
tensivelv criticized man, but if the vs.
rious State codes are consulted 1t VIII
generally be found that statutes Keep
pace with crimes, and are comprehen-
siye enough to control abuses. But II
Objectionable features exist in COM
munity, and no attempt. seemingly,
by the custodians OF the peace to pre-
vant or correct them, naturally the
general public becomes indignant, and
constantly growing sentimentresnlSs
in the demand for elaborate reforms.
The character of the remedy in these
cases is too often mistaken. 1t is not
the absence of law, or the inadequa-
cy of the statute that is subject to critl-
cism, but the negligence or favoritism
Of executive officers. Such statutes rs
we have are not enforced, aud TO the
mass the impression is that laws to
meet the abuse complained of are not
in existence. A law that is not enforced
Is dead letter. The community IL
as unprotected a. if the legislative
body had not acted in the premises. IL
is natural, therefore, under such cir
that public opinion
should loudly express itself and de-
mand reforms.
Illustrations are m any, of the
truth aud correctness of these refi ec-
tons. For instance take the matter OF
rape. Three out of every five rayjsh.
