IN THE MATTER OF THE ENFORCE
MENT OF LAWS UPON
STATUTE BOOKS.
A CARD FROM REV. sCHwARM
to the Present Contro-
versy the Mayor and
Over h Slot Machines-The Wri-
ter Quotes Freely From q Speech
by the Hon.. Chas. c. Bonney, of
Chicago.

OnlcuSOs
The matter between the Mayor and
Chief of Police and the ministers has
for the present narrowed itself down to
this: Is 1T the duty of the executive Of
ficer to enforce the laws for the sup
preston Of vice and crime, or is it
not? These officers appear to think
that they are allowed to use their dis
erection as to whether a law is to be
enforced and as to how it is to be en-
forced.
The ministers think that it is their
duty to execute the laws, and not to be
judges as to the merits and necessity
of the laws.
These officials think the ministers are
inexperienced and, consequently, in
competent to judge in regard to such
matters; and the ministers think these
officials, like SO many people, do not
really comprehend the meaning and
duties of the executive powers of our
government. Now, the ministers do
not want this affair to degenerate into
personalities and i'll feeling. They
have nothing personally against these
officials, nor yet against the men who
operate the slot machines. 1t is not a
personal matter; it is a question as to
whether it is the duty of these officials
to see that the laws of our city, against
gaming, prostitution, etc., are enforced
as they stand upon the statute books.
The ministers believe it is. and they
would believe it though u own broth
er was Chief of Police or an operator
Of a slot machine. 1t is in their minds
a principle, which is vital to the city
government.
If 1 am permitted space in your val
liable paper / will, on the suggestion
of others. give for the creation OF a
wise and healthy sentiment" which
the Mayor and Chief in their ANSWER"
say is the province of the ministers to
create rather than theirs, some extracts
from a lecture on "The Executive Pow
er and the Enforcement of the Laws"
delivered in Pittsburg in 1890, at a con-
vention of the International Law and
Order League, by it's President, Hon.
Charles c.. Bonney, Esq, Of Chicago.
Mr.. Bonney was also President of the
Worlds Auxiliary Congress and made
the opening address at the parliament
of the Worlds Religions at the Worlds
Fair. He made a special study of this
subject in his connection with the Law
and Order League Of Chicago. He says:
'The first cause of the widely-preva-
lent neglect of executive duty may be
found in the fact that in this govern
ment Of the people, by the people, for
the people, there has not, hitherto,
been any general study of the execu-
tive power, nor any general demand for
its efficient exercise. The first remedy
to be sought is, therefore, in enlarged
knowledge of the executive office and
functions, widely disseminated among
the people. Verifying the old adage
that knowledge is power such potent
information would be sure to produce
a potent demand for the projections

Mr.. Howard Page, vice president OF
tie Union Tank line. testified before
the industrial commission in Washing
ton, relative to alleged discrimina-
lions of railroad companies in favor Of
the Standard Oil Company. He stated
that his company owns the tank cars
used by the Standard. He contradicted
many statements made by Mr.. George
Rice, of Marietta, o. He said the
Standard paid the same rate as others,
but on oils carried partly by pipe line
and partly by railroad the pipe line
was allowed a share OF the through
rate. He denied that the Standard
bought tank cars from railroads to
prevent their use by other shippers.
He said the idea of railroads owning
tank cars was impracticable, as the
expense would be enormous if they un-
dertook to provide cars for all the
oil shipped over their lines. He de-
MED that there was discrimination IN
favor of the Standard, by reason of
Standard stockholders being officials Of
railroads, maintaining that the Stand
ard pays the same rates as other ship
pers. He said it was true that the
Standard with its many refineries, had
an advantage In supplying the trade
over a concern with n refinery. He
denied that the B. & o. paid the Stand
ard any rebates. Mr.. Rice said that
outside the Standard there are 40
individuals and companies owning
tank cars, with an aggregate holding
of 1000 in excess of the cars owned
by the Union tank line.

u ntness Of self-government there q
none higher than the ability TO diner
on = mere question Of political policy.
and to unite on q question Of good gov-
eminent and public morals"
"The mighty hand Of executive power
was created to protect and defend the
people and their institutions against
the assaults of foes within, as well as
attacks from enemies from without.
Let it no longer neglect its duty. On
the same table where waits the pen OF
the Chief Magistrate rests the sword of
the Commander-inlChief II evil-doers
do not heed the executive order. the
constitution intends they shall feel the
sharper argument of arms. The con-
stftution knows nothing of crime and
disorder unsubdued. There are no
conditions; there is no alternative.
The law must be obeyed."
1.-The claim that because a consider
able number of persons In a particular
locality. are opposed to a particular
law, it cannot, or should not be en-
forced, is TOO imbecile for serious dis
cussion. II the laws are. defective,
amend them; If oppressive, repeal
them; but while they stand, enforce
them. 1t is, therefore, a high and i'm
pressive duty to exalt the regal prin-
ciple of human government in the af-
fections of the people; to lead them to
revere and study it's majestic nature
and lofty duties, and to encourage them
to support with all their power those
executive officers upon whose courage
and fidelity they must ever depend for
protection and defense. However per-
feet may be the laws, and the judicial
decisions that expound them, the peo-
pie cannot enjoy the blessings of a
reign of law and order without a faith
full and efficient exercise of the execu-
tive power. Respectfully,
