The publication ofthe laws in newspapers
has been proved necessity in more ways
than one. The publicity attempted by a
broadcast distribution of sheets has been an
arrant failure; and because of that failure
laws have been put on the statute book and
left there, of which nobody had or has any
knowledge, save their draughtsmen and
the duty which the State owes to the
public of giving full and free opportunity
to learn under what laws they are to act
has been denied and neglected.
