Tnis iB q phase OF our political
life that Il would be well for many
OF us TO think upon. One OF the most
discouraging signs of the times Is the
clamor, on all sides, for laws, laws,
laws, when there are laws enough on
the statute books, IL they were half
way enforced to make the country the
best-governed In the world. II seems
TO be a not uncommon idea that wnen
law Is passed and signed by the ex-
ecutive the task is done, and 1t is left
to enforce itself. The result is that
the statute books are a Veritable store

laws which, no doubt, In many cases
were passed more in response to pop
ular clamor> than in an EFFORT to pro-
vide a needed reform.
The evil Is not confined to any sec
tion of the country or to any class
Of people. Indeed, the President Of
the United States himself is one of
the worst offenders In this regard He
had the Sherman anti-trust-law, when
he came into ONCE, already on the
statute books. and in good working
trim. It is regarded even now as the
most stringent curb that has ever
been applied to the trusts. But the
President had to give the people
something to talk about, and, as they
take more interest in agitation than
in the abstruse subject of antitrust
prosecution he had the Elkins law
added, while the Sherman antitrust
law was to some extent given rest.
Again, with ample provision for the
punishment of common. criminals, he

whipping-post for wife-beaters, when
he knew, or should have known, that
such a punishment would be less fire.

All over the country the cry is for
