the judgment there pronounced. The
road to Justice is long and rough.
When legislators enter new fields they
sometimes err through ignorance or
rancor. Facts are not always under
stood. men profoundly Interested are
not always candid and differences arise
which lead to confusion and mischief.
Even laws carefully drawn appear to
have conflicting provisions, and the
impatient or the arrogant attempt on
occasion to force conclusions for them
selves. In such emergencies the
courts, sitting apart from their rival
ries and contentious, nave the power
to stay proceedings and to determine
rights. In most cases every harm is
done by delay. In almost every in
stance where there is obedience all
parties are benefited by the orderly
adjudication.
