Our Village Council have done a good act in framing by-laws regarding the morals of the place as well as regulating the running at large of animals, and of pubUc nuisances, but in order to make those by-laws eSectiye it will be neces- sary to appoint some ofcer whose duty it will be to see that those laws are en- forced. If left for citizens to complain against their neighbors or agamst the pubUc for infringement of the li^w those well framed by-laws will become a dead- letter. We think the village constable or some other person should be delegat- ed to the enforcement of those laws and paid tor it either by a percentage of the fines imposed or otherwise as the council may see in their wisdom most praotic* able. credit on the leader and superintendent, Mr. S.
