THE QUARANTINE.

Much comment has been INDUCED
In recently as to the manner in which
the quarantine regulations Of both city
.and state have been enforced In Cairo.
and officers who have had charge of
this enforcement have been harshly
censured and, If reports are true, have
even been threatened with personal
violence for obeying positive orders.
THIS il manifestly unfair and not at
all creditable TO the gentlemen who
are credited with such ebnlutions of
temper
One may not have a good opinion
of all laws enacted; may, possibly,
have an utter contempt for some spec
ial law. but that does not excuse him
for a violation of it.
An individual may think that he Il
80 well known that he is justified in
ignoring some special requirement;
but, If nc is a law abiding citizen, he
will remember the fact that the law
Is no respector OF persons and that in
the eyes OF the Law he is no better
than anybody else
W.T. Gentlemen who have served in the
army. especially If they have served
as comm ssioned officers, know full
well that when soldier has been
placed on guard duty he Is given the
most positive instructions to know
nobody without the countersign OF
official pass. They know thai the
guard has absolutely no discretion in
the matter If he yields TO the bluff
or bland shments Of the one who |;
nv SO well known as to fancy that HI
is exempt from special or general OF
tiers, he Is not only blamed hutin al
probability will be sent to the guar,
house.
No self-respecting officer in the al
n my would think Of suhjecting a guar
to such an alternative or humiliation
Rer There may be occasions in civil lif
when IT becomes necessary 70 enforc
law, or regulation, that Is displeai
ing to some official. It may, poss .bll
be 10 his personal az official incoi
vcnience, bnt ayen II II is, that doc
not Justify him in Its violat on Whe
an officer is sworn to enforce a lay
or ali laws, he should have respc
enough for ~ Or them, to obey II /
them himself.
No officer should arrogate TO hiI
self the idea that he Is superior
the law. No law abiding citiz
should assume to do what the law pc
itIvely says he should not do
II the laws are wrong, correct ther
but until they are corrected, oh
them.
