A MISUNDERSTANDING OF FOLK.

The Brooklyn Eagle has at one time
and another bestowed high praise on
Governor Folk. That paper has, how.
ever, disapproved Of the governors
policy In relation to the closing Of
saloons on Sunday and the enforce
ment Of the law forbidding the max.
ing Of books on horse races. In this
disapproval the Eagle has betrayed a
misunderstanding of the Missouri ex.
~ecutive and a misconception as to the
local sentiment concerning his course.
Governor Folk is not a crank. He
Is not In any sense a narrow-m!nded
man or a pickering official. His atti-
tude toward Sunday closing and horse
racing per Sc is not necessarily de-
fined In his enforcement Of the law
In relation TO these things. But to
him 1t Is sufficient that a law Is
printed In the statute boks" and has
never been repealed. He believes that
as governor he must enforce the laws
he is sworn to administer. whether they
are popular or unpopular, to the end
that better laws, II needed. should
take the place Of those nov In force.
