with the necessity of a reform in any
part of the law, we are naturally in
clined to make direct efforts to accom-
plish the object, and legislation seems
to be the only method by which such
efforts can be made. This instrument
taIity is, therefore, freely Employed;
but, somehow, in most cases, the ex
pectation is disappointed. The statute
sometimes stands unnotlced, some
times nullified by construction. The
old evil continues to manifest itself in
the same or in other shapes, and the
baffied and despairing refOrmer re-
Iapses into indolence; and, by and by,
some new adventurers, animated by
like hopes, repeat similar experiments
and meet with similar results.
This Is not so in other fields of hui
man effort. The builder of the ocean
steamship, finding that his expecta-
| tions of speed and economy have been
| disappointed, makes a profound and
patient study Of the operation and
| laws of forces and resistances. He
| discovers his errors; re adapts his ship
and its engines to the conditions he is
| compelled to encounter, and his we'll
| directed effort is rewarded in his new
| creation, which is hailed as the pride
| Of the seas.
In the field Of legal reform, no sim
! liar study seems to be made. We use
! the instrumentality Of legislation APP
| parently with no suspicion that we do
! not fully understand the nature OF
! that agency; and we deal with the un-

THE Ultimate AIM OF ALL LAW.

All Great Reformers Have Been Ideal

Justice, itself, the true foundation,
the ultimate aim of all law, is, in its eS-
sence, an ideal conception. 1t is the
animatipg principle of every rule, OBJ
servance or statute. 1t is that which
is unconseiously sought for in his
studies by the humblest lawyer, and
towards which the great jurist con-
sciously aspires with a spirit en-
kindled by an almost poetic flame.
The great lawgivers, the great states
men of the world, and the great law
yers as we'll, have been idealists. All
great reformers have been idealists.
No man has ever yet removed an
abuse, corrected a mischief, or lifted
his fellow men up to higher level of
life, except by virtue of his capacity
to form a conception of better world
and to make others comprehend and
adopt it. Solon of Greece, uniting the
fire and fancy of the poet with the
practical instincts of the statesman
and jurist-a marvellous, many-sided
man seized upon period in Greek
society when the antique feudallsm
was breaking up before an advancing
| industrial and commercial era, formed
| a conception of a state in which the
| old and the new should be reconciled
and harmonized, reduced 1t to sys-
tenn in his Laws, and created the
Athenian commonwealth.
