Medical science seems on the eve of

the human body, has set the profession
by the ears
The disposition now is to stop de-
nouncing the other kind of corpuscle.

The cause of this is in our system

SEVERE LAWS

Erskine Dale, charged with be-
ing an enemy of the Irish Free
State. was executed for pistol tot
ing. A number OF others have
since been shot for the same OF
tense.
Execution looks like a pretty
severe punishment for carrying a
pistol. If it were carried out IN a
country where conditions were nor
nal it would be too severe. But
during an exigency such as exists
in Ireland, citizens are denied privi-
leges and liberties which are grant
ed in more peaceful times, or at
least if not granted, they are pun
ished only as a minor oifcnse.
To guarantee the fullest extent
of liberty, a community must be
under the control OF an adequate
machine for law enforcement. When
law enforcement is difficult, obedi-
ence must be compelled with a
rigid. If not severe, hand.
In the frontier days of this coun.
try when the Great Southwest was
only sparsely settled. and des-
perado was able to elude oilcers

Il used to be capital offense ID
steal horse.
A horse thief was the most rep
rehensible character on the plans
He was hanged on conviction ana
many times without trial, when the
evidence was sufficient.
Today we have strong torce
OF peace officers throughout the
Southwest. With automobiles, air
planes and the telegraph, horse
thief would scarcely be able to &c
out OF the county before he was
apprehended.
The horse thief OF yesterday has
been succeeded by the automobile
thief OF today. and, although mucn
more valuable than horse, the
thief OF an automobile is not a
capital offense.
Lawless characters must be kept
in fear of the law If they are TO
be kept in restraint. And the best
restraint is the certainty OF ITS
enforcement and the adequacy OF
