Now if the particular law which the State enacts be unpopular in a particular county, and the people be determined to defeat it, no Sheriff or District Attorney can be elected who will enforce it.

That has been shown in the case of the legislation to prohibit or regulate the sale of intoxicating liquors in Suffolk County.

Those laws have been always unpopular and since the change in the mode of appointment of District Attorneys and Sheriffs have not been enforced until they were modified to meet the popular objections.

This difficulty applies also to the enforcing of laws for the employment of children in factories.

The Legislature undertook to meet this difficulty by creating officials, called State Constables, to be appointed by the Governor and to enforce the liquor laws and the laws regulating child labor.
