If a certain individual is &C
cused of neglecting his official
duty men begin to point him and
he is finally turned down. But
we often see the wholesale charge
made that county officers will not
do their duty relative to break
ing up illicit distilleries for fear
they will injure their chances Of
reelection, and no attention is
paid TO It. There is little doubt
that the average sheriff will not
go out of his way to arrest a man
for violating this particular law,
but let a fellow steal a chicken
orsomething equally as insign.
ificant, and he and all his de.
puties will 60 out in full force
until the thief is landed on the
road gang. Of course it may be
worse to steal from some mar
that has chickens than from q
rich and powerful government,
but 50 far as we know the Law
does not make much difference in
the penalty.
