Excerpt from Statutes and Statutory Construction: Including a Discussion of Legislative Powers, Constitutional Regulations Relative to the Forms of Legislation and to Legislative Procedure, Together With an Exposition at Length of the Principles of Interpretation and Cognate Topics
The law for the construction of written contracts and other private documents is as certain and well defined as upon any other branch of legal science. This is not equally true of the law for the construction of Written Laws. They deal with subjects of greater complexity; they are the product of so many minds, not having common views, that incongruities cannot be wholly excluded, and threads of diverse ideas are often interwoven; and, moreover, opposing considerations of broader range press for recognition in their construction. In many ways converse rules overlap, and the lines of distinction are faint and shifting.
The natural tendency and growth of the law is towards system and towards certainty, towards modes of operation at once practical and just, by the process of its intelligent judicial administration; but this process is impaired by over work and legislative interference.
