assumption without a particle of proof for a basis upon which to stand.
 This being true, those who as- sume that the law can not be en- forced for the reason that 1t is not approved by public senti- ment assume the attitude of an- archists, or at least that they are the sole judges whether given law should be recognized and en- forced as the law. If not actual violators of the laws themselves. they give aid and encouragement to those who believe in ignoring or openly violating all laws that do not meet with their approval. If individual men presume to say this or that law need not be en- forced, and if by such presump- tion they are to be relieved from all duty to obey a law, then we will have little use for laws or for courts.
 Of course it follows that when law has been regularly enacted by the recognized and constitu- tional authority of the State, wholesome public sentiment will stand for it's enforcement. If 1t should turn out that a majority of those affected by the law are opposed to it, it may be repeal ed, or it may be assailed in the courts if it is in conflict with the Constitution. But let it be said with emphasis, and repeated, no good citizen will encourage law breakers by assuming that law that has been lawfully passed msy be ignored and violated by men who assume that it is an un- wise and unjust law. That is a function that is not and can not be left to individuals; it can only be settled by the courts, or by the law-making tribunal of the State.

LAW AND PUBLIC SENTIMENT.

Knoxville (Tenn.) Journal and Tribune: It is often said that no law can be enforced that is not backed by public sentiment. Of course there is truth in the state ment. Recently a question came up in Criminal Court of Davidson County, growing out of what was said to be the de- termination of certain men on the Grand Jury, that the vio- lators of the prohibition law should not be indicted because they, the jurors, believe the law to be wrong. If such a thing as that happens, can it or will 1t be said they are controlled by public sentiment!
 What is puplic sentiment? Of course men do not agree upon every thing. There are those who favor a law and there are those who are opposed to 1t. It must be conceded that in a government by the people, a de- mocracy, is government py the majority. How is it to be known which side has a majority, when there is difference of opinion up- on a measure? There is but one way we know of by means ot which the will of a majority IS to be ascertained- that is by resort ing to the ballot.
 Senators and Representatives in the Legislature are there as the representatives of the peo- ole. If the majority of the representatives of the people vote for and enact a law, the presumption is that such a law expresses the will of majority of the people of the whole State. That being true, then 1t reflects public sentiment, unless it be claimed that a minority and not a majority must rule. If ma iority of the representatives of the people are together on given proposition, then it is fair to presume that a majority ot the people are that way. To presume anything else is a bare

The appalling death,ra,e from kid ney disease is due in most cases to thu fact that the little kidney troubles are usually neglected until they become serious. The slight symptoms give place 10 chronic disorders and the suf. ferer goes gradually into the grasp of diabetes, dropsy, Bright's disease, gravel or some other serious form of kidney disease.
 If you suffer from backache, head aches, dizzy spells; if the kidney secre- tions are irregular of passage and un- natural in appearance, do not delay. Help the kidneys at once.
 Doan's Kidney Pills are especially for kidney disorders they cure where others fail. Over one hundred thousand people have recommended them. Here's a case at home:
 Mrs. Frances Hesterly, Prescott, Ark, says: ''1 can recommend Doan's Kidney Pills as an excellent remedy for backache and other forms of kid ney trouble. A few menths ago l pro- cured this preparation at Hesterly's drug store and began its use in accord ance with the directions. l had been troubled for long time by pains in the small of my back but Doan's Kidney Pills quickly relieved me and strength ened and toned up my whole system.
