The vigorous enforcement of the prohibit
tory law by Sheriff Cram and his deputies
does not apparently please some of our es-
teemed Democratic contemporaries so well as
there was reason to expect it would. Though
opposed to the law on principle these es-
teemed contemporaries have always con.
tended that 1t should be enforced because It
was law, and have professed eagerness to
contribute to its enforcement But now we
find these esteemed contemporaries very
much exercised in their minds lest the en-
forcement may not be discreet. The pun
melting OF a deputy sheriff by notorious
law breaker Is palliated even because the
aforesaid deputy has not, in the opinion of
one of these esteemed contemporaries, al
ways been controlled by judgment, but has
too often relied upon brute force. The idea
of this contemporary seem to be that the
officers should issue polite invitation to
the rumsellers to attend session of the
Municipal court and explain their conduct
and that not until the Invitation had been
declined should anything like force be used.
An esteemed contemporary is also greatly
worried lest the sheriff's subordinates have
been violating some of the United States
shipping laws. For some reason or other
that great zeal for enforcement of the law
because 1t is law, which formerly animated
them has departed, and now they are dis.
posed to throw obstacles In the way of that
vigorous enforcement which they have
some years been shouting for.
