GOOD

The record that is being made in the criminal courts of
Shelby county, presided over by Judge Richards and Judge
Harsh, is such that will merit and gain the approval of the
people who believe in the enforcement of law without fear or
favor.
Naturally this condition could not exist without the vigorous
and intelligent support OF Gen. Bates and his assistants, Mr..
McLain and Mr., Exby. The law violators are beginning to have
a horror OF the criminal courts, and il the record is maintained
during the remainder OF the term of these gentlemen we shall
lind ourselves i'll the midst of a much more wholesome atmos-
phere in this respect.
Gen. Bates has secured some notable convictions within the
past few months, and he deserves the approval of the community
for his exceptionally good work. Another element that enters
into this record is the disposition of the iuries to enforce the
law. After all, the jures convict or acquit, and the fact that
convictions are more frequent than formerly, and especially in
encouraging omen. AT times the enforcement of the law appears
to be an uphill business, but the goal will be reached by giving
encouragement to the officers of the law who make a genuine
and a consistent effort in that direction,
