LAW AND CONDUCT.
Good reeolBtloas, ratrUcnlarly f the New Year
variety, ought to be kept religiously. Good rso
lmkMM. if kept and made a ptiaeiple of conduct,
are a tremendous uplift to character; but If broken
tbe reaalt i worm than if aoae.liad been record
ed. The old habits aad thins foresworn but gain
a Brmer footaoU amoag the wreckage of promise.
It follows that good revolutions ought not t be
entered into lightly.
It i a depressing reflection that the eon
duct which depend for regulation, and the char
acter which depend for development, upon express
resolutions are in a bad way. While of Itself the
fact that resolutions are made is an encouraging
sign of aspiration, it is nearly always a sign. too.
of weakness aad dire need In character. There
is absolutely nothing to lie said against the reso
lutions which are the l-asls of genuine and ul
stantlal reforms, but It is more often the case that
character Is built by a steady and gradual process,
and conduct is developed slowly and scientifically.
Spasmodic efforts rarely go far.
There is some analogy between tbe impulsive and
annual reformer and the State or tuition whicj !

which have experiueatrd toward the control of

that conduct has ilercioiicd rather by ciaihaizins

that the life f the nop!e and the H'V of the
tJovcrntnent will le better for the dis.-u-ion of
right and wrong now licing waged in many de
partments f activity, in some asos ... tiereely.
We are letter for considering reform, and we shaij
l letter for etich good resolves and promises as
wo may register in legislation but we shall be
worse for a failure of enforcement of the new re
form legislation.
Practically the great achievement of the reform
ware is in accentuating old principles of right and
wrong. There will Ih fewer brilier.s and bri!
takefs; more old fashioned honesty anions legisla
tors and p-tliticiaus; loss -frenzied finance" among

discretion in the eliolee. from which the Fathers an
ticiiKitcil such benefieiit results. Everywhere the
IcgiMators approach the task under the domination
of party, aud In etery State where one well-dis-clplincd
party is in Nwer the nsUr of the election
i. a certainly even Iwfore the legislature con
venes. Xot only lias party spirit claimed thit elec

Is often made Itcfore the raemliers of the Legisla
ture are elected and is obtruded upon that body
by the State Convention. Everywhere the
mo emeu I for the direct primary Is gaining ground.
Ami he concludes by remarking that unless the
Stiate can speedily give some evidence of responsi
bility to public opinion, the new century will still
lie young when the people, tired of treachery on tbe
pan of their representatives, will east aside the es
tablished mode of election. t
It may r added that the present Senate. If It
jierslsts in defying the Insistence of the public up
