The Saturday Evening Post is preach

a given locality, in their enforcement OF
law. Hardly week passes" declares
the Post, editorially, that the press OF
some state or city does not flame up IN
burst of righteous Indignation agains
local authorities for failing to enforce
the laws. And yet it is an axiom ac-
cepted among lawyers that for the most
part our statutes are enforced just as
ing sentiment Of the community die
tates" If this is IAN axiom accepted
among lawyers which we do not be-
lieve, it is an absolutely false one. Whe::
an officer takes his oath, he does not
swear that he will enforce the law as
long as, or if, public sentiment is such
that he thinks it will be the popular
thing for him to do. He declares in sub
stance that he will enforce the law as
he finds it on the statute books, with no
reference to the "prevaili0g sentiment"
of his community. A nblic official

tain former German cables.
Produce Striking Eject.
These demands have produced a
striking effect on Franco-British re-
1ations. During a year Of negotia-
tions the British diplomatic and eco
nomic pressure on France has been
exercised more and more strongly.
with the result that France, always
obliged to give in to her more power
ful associate, has been growing more
and more bitter against the Bfttieh,
And has begun to base hAr hopes more
completely on an eventual rivalry be-
tween Britain and the United States,
which would serve to fe1teve France
to some extent Of this almost unheaf-
able pressure. ,z..,-S :, y
In previous cable dispatches this
correspondent has told how, by the
purchase OF American coal tho French
lately succeeded in freeing themselves
from dependence upon Britain In this
respect. Moreover, no sooner were
the British assured by the San Reno
convention of a practical monopoly
over the French market as regards
oil. than, with the acQuiescence Of
certain French leaders, a great oil
company was formed in Paris Of which
more than half the capital is French,
but which, in reality, is merely a
branch Of the Standard Oil Company.
