revised statutes of the state cover in
small type, and stripped of all super
huities, nearly 1000 pages. Few peo-
pie have even skinned over them.
A large number of them are constant
ly violated; and many of them that
are not violated are unnecessary and
merely cumber the statute books. The
Springfield Register says:
This inclination to multiply laws
which will not be observed or that
are unnecessary, seems to be a mania
with legislators, and grows by what
it feeds on, not only in Illinois, but in
every state in the Union; and not
only in the states, but in towns and
cities of the country, in which the
aldermen vie with state legislators in
multiplying laws. One reason for
this is. that the easiest way out when
legislators or aldermen are pressed to
pass a law or an ordinance is to let
it go through and depend upon its
non-enforcement to prevent any harm
coming from it. That satisfies those
who demand the enactment of the law,
who usually rest without any persis-
emit attempt to carry it into effect.
The result of such policy is bad. 1t
creates q certain disrespect or con-
tempt for law, and tends to substitute
Legislation for education Many of
the evils of society can be cured only
by the education of the individual;
and there is a constant danger lest the
legislative body assume paternal
functions. When Legislators frankly
recognize these facts our state and
city statute books will be greatly di-
minished in size, discredited statutes
will be eliminated and they will cease
to enact laws that are unnecessary or
that are sure not to be enforced.
When this time comes, if it ever does.
executive officers will become simply
administrators of law, and the admin
istration of government will become
more efficient. With the removal of
dead-letter statutes popular respect
for law will increase. These two ends
of greater efficiency in government
and higher regard for law are worth
working for"

THE PAPER TRUST.

A more typical tariff trust than
the International Paper company, so
ably exposed by John Norris. the bus
mess manager of the New York
Times, in the Free Trade leagues
pamphlets. it would be hard to find.
The base and starting point of this
gigantic monopoly was the protec-
ton afforded it by increasing duties
on paper and paper pulp to the pro-
hibitory point. Mr. Norris shows
how quickly after securing this tariff
aid they organized the trust with
watered capitalization, and how COM
pletely they hold the newspapers of
the country by the throat, and exact
from them every year 81 500 600
extra in the cost OF paper Protection
alone has made this possible. Take
away this tariff subsidy and the COM
petition of Canadian forests would
destroy its monopoly.
Mr.. Norris shows how the Interna-
tional Paper company has broken
every promise and disappointed
every expectation held out to con-
gress and the public when it was Sc
curing it's prohibitory duties. The
valued economies Of combination turn
out to be merely some reduction in
labor cost, which is more than offset
by the increased salaries Of high
officials. The enormous capitalization
of $45. 900, 900 is one-half water, a
burden of itself many times greater
than any possible economies can
bear. 1t has arbitrarily advanced
prices. rendered poorer service
and failed to increase its foreign
trade. Its chief aim and effort has
been by getting possession of the
spruce forests of North America to
render it's monopoly permanent and
impregnable; and if permitted to
WELD the power granted it by the
present tariff on paper and pulp few
years longer, it will probably succeed.
The abolition of its so-called protec-
ton. but real government monopoly,
is the first medicine that ought to be
administered to this swollen octopus.
1t would probably cure this case with
the aid OF the competition afforded by
the unlimited Canadian supply and
the dead weight of its watered stock.

EFFORTS have been made recently
in two western states, Minnesota and
Wisconsin, to enact laws restricting
the marriage of persons afflicted with
physical or mental disorders. Ii is
proposed that persons contemplating
marriage shall first pass a medical
examination, and that marriage IL
censes shall be refused TO those who
do not receive medical certificates as
to their fitness to enter the marital
relation. A bill of this kind passed
the Wisconsin, Assem- bly,, and failed
by only two votes in the upper house.
these measures have had the earnest
support of the medical fraternity in
both states. It has been the general
experience, however, that laws i'm
posing restraints upon marriage are
exceedingly difficult of enforcement.
