ENFORCING THE LAW. ‘A just proportion of taxation and a strict enforcement of the law is always a fine thing for the other fellow.” says the LaGrange Graphic. Which is one way of saying that too many of us are obsessed with the idea that we are immune from the provis ion of the law. What is needed is that all of us should realize we are under the law and not delude our selves to believe that we are above It. The instant this happens we become bad citizens; for those who wilfully evade the law' are not far from violating it outright. And Editor Richardson of the La- Grange Graphic will not undertake to say that his assertion applies only to the tax laws, for however much It is to be regretted, this is the attitude of a number of us toward many laws. It is a violation of the law for one to carry a pistol concealed, and yet there are many persons who do not regard l his law as applying to themselves, and they violate it without the slight est, pricking of conscience. We have game laws, making it unlawful to kill certain kinds of game at a cer tain period of the year, but men vio late this law, and they do not believe that they have not done any great, wrong. Those who violate these two laws, if asked whether or not they believe them to lie good, will unhesi tatingly say they do. But. as tne Graphic says of the tax law, they re gard it as having been enacted for the other fellow. It is (he same witli the prohibition law. Thousands and tens of thousands cry aloud for the law and its enforce ment, and yet they do not hesitate to buy liquor when they want it and can get it. They think it is a fine tiling for the other fellow, but do not regard the law as having been enact ed for their benefit, when without doubt, they are among those who in sist. upon its enactment. We must get away from the illogi cal reasoning that the law is a re specter of persons. All of us must have proper respect for it. Other wise we shall go from had to worse until a state of anarchy will exist throughout the country, and those who are regarded as being among the best citizens —the leaders of the land —those who should teach others the way both by precept and example — will have contributed more largely to it than any other class, because they, to whom all are looking for leadership, are breaking down the law and trampling it under foot. o Shall we call teh McMichael “bloc” the “bellyachers’ bloc?’’ o Our Albany friends won the first half of the pennant race in the South Georgia Circuit. Well, we had just as soon lick this Albany crowd as any of 'em. PUBLIC SALE. GEORGIA —Early County: Whereas Paul R.
