Gii.-ximiss :—fYour communication in ref
'crone() to a, prohibitory law has - been receiv .. -
..-„,_
id, and . in. reply, I-say that, l the constitution
.l - ality of .a prohibitory lavr, , siMilar'in its es
tn- sential features t(I, the one referred to in your
Ito, interrogatories, having received atindicial de
wn termination by the highest Courts - of 'several
''ill of Zur sister States, and the; principle having
been recognized; by the Supreme Court of
t'fie , the,Unite&State's, I am relieved from the re
fer aponsibility of a first dmiskm. These Courts
tm- having affirmed the constitutionality.of a pro- 1
hibitory law, anti' being of the highest author- 1
ity, I believe, Upon principle and authority,;
such a law to bu constitutional.; and its eqn
stitUtionality, iti my opinon, would not - be
affected by a stabthission f its repeal to.a
,
vote of the peoOle. 1, ,__ '' '' -
Every measure of moral or pdlitical re
form, sanctioned by. the representatives ofthe
people, within tbe.limits of the Ciin.stitution, '
should receive my official sanction. 'The'ex
pedieney and propriety of ! such lairs are - for
1 the people, through their representatives 4— •
! and their will,constitutionallyleelared,shou
ight be - respected
,by the. Exe'cutive. If 'the poo
plc demand ; and their r6Presentatiljes enact
Mich a law, their will should tkot be' resisted
by the exercise of the 'vetci power—a power
of purely conservative, and only. to be exercised
tak- in cases clearly constitutional, or exhibiting',
indubitable eiridence, of hasty, injurious. and 1
.I
imperfect legislation. Such being my . views

of official duty! in the premises, should the
