as far as the reformation of the sin
full is concerned.
A wise magistrate has to exercise
discretion in the enforcement of
laws Of this sort, and he is justi-
fed in doing it. If his only duty
was to enforce the laws as he found
them, we might as well have a ma
chine in the mayors chair as man
of intelligence, and the community
would be in an endless turmoil OF
course, there is danger about this
view, and it requires judgment to-
know where to discriminate and
where to draw the line. But this
only proves that we should put men
with good sense and honesty of pur-
pose in Office.
90, To summarize, as long as there
is so much folly displayed in the
enactment Of laws, there will have
to be some discretion employed in
their enforcement. We have got to
have discretion somewhere.

I am of the opinion:
That local and general misgovern-
ment is due largely to the failure
of the executive to enforce the laws.
That the executive officers should
not be elected with the under
standing that they will discrim-
mate as to the enforcement or nom
enforcement Of particular laws.
That the sole duty of the executive
is to see that the laws are executed,
with no discretion. except what is
expressly specified in the laws.
That, therefore, he should not use
his discretion in enforcing the laws.
In the case of apparently conflicting
laws his actions should be governed
by his legal adviser.
That he should not be guided by
public sentiment in allowing laws to
become dead letters.
That he has no right to modify
certain laws land enforce them
partly or in a new sense"
That it is not true that an exec
utive frequently administers bet
ter government by prudent dfserim-
nation than by impartially enforc-
ing the laws, whether good or bad.
That the supposed existence Of the
privilege Of discrimination in exc
cutting laws in the sense above in
dicated is productive of more harm
than good.
That this prevailing latitude of
discretion in executing laws opens
the way to bribery and corrupt gov
eminent.
That this practice of discrimination
is liable to special abuse in con-
nection with laws relating to gam
bling, the liquor traffic, and the
social evil.
In short, 1 believe that the duty

which is so generally deplored. The
idea of enforcing a law simply be-
cause it is law, and without any
regard to it's utility or justice, is
all well enough as theory to instill
into the minds of school children,
but men of mature reason and full
sense of their rights find 1t imposs1-
BILE to take such view, and the
consequence is a wholesale disregard
of many of the laws on our statute
books If Legislators would refrain
from the attempt to regulate private
business interests by legislative en-
actment, and provide only such wise
and conservative measures as would
conserve the public peace, allowing
all men the widest possible latitude
in selecting their vocations and in
satisfying the promptings of their
individual consciences, there would
be more respect for and a better
observance of the laws.
