Threatened by a citizens' comfnit
t^e'ttith expnlsiivii from office for [aSl-'
tn-e to enforce tlfC prohibition law }md
to close gambling houses, Mayor Gil
bert of Kansas City# Kas^ndid his dfitv.
The mayor deserves lit tie credit for
his action and: it is probable that with
in a brief period a wide open policy
will again prevail—as soon as the citi
zens relax their vigilanc^., The proper
way to have good government is to en
force the laws. If a law is obnoxious
fo the majority of the public its strict
enforcement will result in its repeal.
The disregard of law on the part oi
public officials is just as anarchistic as
on the part of others. Because a num
ber of individuals object to the enforce
ment of a certain law is no valid reason
for making that statute a dead letter.
If public officials pander to the lawless
clement what is to be expected of the
criminal class? The president of the
United States and the former presi
dent have recently Sfiid a good deal
about good citizenship. This suljject
is a favorite one with President Roose
velt. In a republic liberty and law are
equally important. The former can only
be assured by strict adherence td-. the
latter. To Mr. Cleveland has been at
tributed the expression ol the aphorism
"A public office is,'a. public trust."'
President Roosevelt- has emphasized
that tact in. word and in deed. His re
marks on honesty, duty, respect of law
—good citizenship—are .as applicable
to public officials as to private citizens.
Malfeasance in ofliee has become so
frequent as to be a subject of com
mon remark iii every state. It has
been held that,officials can be expected
to do no more than public sentiment
demands. But the expression of the
loudest tnouthed individuals is not al
ways to be interpreted ps the senti
ment of the publi#. It is the duty of
officials to enforce the laws a« they find
them, not to ignore them.
