Entirely too little respect is shown
for law in America. In every state
we find laws a nullity for policy's
sake. Such a thing Is unknown in
any other land. Disregard of one law
breeds disrespect for all law. In al
lowing some laws to go uninforced,
we reap ii harvest in having all laws
broken. The law may not be ones
liking, but the answer, 'it is the law"
should be sufficient for the law abid-
ing. Good men will observe even the
bad laws. 1t should be that all men
good and bad be compelled to keep
all law good or bad, because it is the
law. How careless people usually are
as to whether laws are enforced or
not. This lethargy gives rise TO civic
evils. Indeed nearly all public
wrongs grow out Of the Indifference of
the people.--Joseph w. Folk.
