Why Legalize Gambling.
Farm and Hauch.
The National Department of
Corporations of which Mr. (lar-
field is the conspicuous head. i«
not the only white-washing ma-
chine operating in this country.
Texas courts can cause some of
these investigating white-wash-
ing departments to turn green
with envy. The same is true
in many of our neighboring
states if press dispatches tell
the truth. The gamblers are
turned loose in bunches and
nominal costs are paid by the
keepers of unlawful gambling
houses. Sworn officers of the
law wink at violations of the
game laws, at the whiskey laws
in wet and dry counties, and
obscene shows at our fairs.
City, county and district
courts are weak because public
sentiment is weak and grossly
indifferent to the best and high-
est interests of the community.
Officers wink at these and many
offenses because the people, the
riitgs, tbe cliques behind such
officers hope to secure profit or
pleasure through the neglect of
such laws.
It is no excuse to plead that
certain laws on the statute books
are unj1 >.t and discriminate.
Laws must discriminate against
the evil doer—the pcr-on who
hurts the community financially
or morally. It is nothing but
right that those practices which
injure the business interests ol
city or state should be outlawed.
It 1- outlawed. It is right. Is
it right that gambling houses
be permitted to suck the blood
of our young manhood and build
moral pitfalls for the unwary?
This business is a "hold-up," a
"lleecing," an ulcer upon the
body politic. If every citizen
were a direct sufferer the thing
would be quickly stopped. Yet
every citizen is injured by this
unlawful traffic in the money
and morals of our young men
becausc it invades every com-
munity and hurts every county,
financially as well as morally.
The same is true of every un-
lawful business.
The people are constantly fed
upon excuses, such as "gambling
hurts only the lower classes."
IIow thoughtless is he who ac-
cepts thi statement at its face
value. The oflicers and the
courts accept compromises and
virtually say, "fio and do the
same thing next week and we
will again collect our toll." How
farcical! Yet, the people pay
the bills twice- support the un-
lawful, unprofitable business
and pay the expenses of courts
and officers.
There are now strong efforts
being made to have the Texas
law against pool roqms amended
and legalize gambling at connty
and state fair on the grounds
that the ¡airs "must be sup-
ported by ea r,bling machines,
known as 'book makers,' if the
fairs are to live." This is but
an excuse. Just the contrary is
in reality true fairs succeed
best where gambling is out-
la aed and most effectually kept
out of the grounds. We are
familiar with tile old argument
concerning "building up a horse
industry by per milling gambling
at fairs," but dead lair associa-
tions and deserted lair grounds
at which horse rac.-s were for
years the leading features testify
throughout this country that
horse races can not insure the
success of any fair. During a
term of ten years horse racing
costs the fair more money than
the fair can get out of it. We
have had some official connec-
tion with fairs that are now liv-
ing and have seen the inside of
this cooked up argument.
If gambling is right and good,
legalize it everywhere. Kneour-
age it everywhere. Make of it a
favored institution and teach
the members of your family to
support it. Stand for it or
against it. If you have the
progress and besi interests of
your state at heart make your
position fell with legislators,
jurors and officers of the law to
condemn the proposed change
in the virtuous laws now on
Texas' statute books.

Little Issues.
Current Issues.
A smile is the dawn of a
laugh.
Just any kind of sense is
common; but common sense is
rare.
A woman will spend the en-
tire day listening to a settlement
worker lecture on cruelty; but
never think of her carriage
horse tied in the sun with a
neck strap holding its head in
the air.
A man enjoys his cornbread
because he has worked for it;
but merely eats fruit cake be-
cause it happens to be a present
to the household.
When your neighbor greets
you pleasantly things are run-
ning smooth at home; but when
he sidesteps you with a growl,
either his wife has asked for a
gingham dress or the bill col-
lectors ha^e him on the run.
You can tell a bachelor by his
looks; but a married man has no
individuality.
If the wife were no better
than the husband, civil and re-
ligious society would be at an end.
The man who enters the pres-
ence of a lady without a coat
and his shirt open at the neck
is uncivil and a brute; but the
lady who associates with gentle-
men and wears a short sleeve
peek-a-boo waist is fashionable.
Married life doesn't really be-
gin to degenerate until the hus-
band begins to wipe his razor on
the lace curtains.
Four walls mark the limits
of the domain of convicts and
many wives; but the freedom of
the plains is the reward of the
bachelor girl.
The whispered prayer of a
mother is heard on High above
the din of an operatic solo
screamed in a fashionable
church.

Need the law* («forced.
Hallas News
It is useless to make new
laws each year at a great ex-
pense to the state. \Vh.it we
need is an enforcement of those
we now have on hand. 1: we
vould and would elect oili er*
v\ ho would do their whole duly
and enforce the laws we now
have in stuck it would be much
better than ordering another
supply ol laws to lie unenforced.
('/see /W'ti mi up.
There is much truth in what
the Woundup says, líut it must
be remembered that we have a
large state and a new stale, and
thai a* each year rolls around
we realize the necessity for
more laws to meet conditions
lhat did not exist last year.
Hut it is the truth that our laws
are not properly enforced. It
is also the truth that the law*
of the country generally are not
properly enforced. We can not
shut our eve* to the ¡act that it
is well nigh impossible to con-
vict a man of murder in this
state if he has the money to yet
good lawyers. State I'ress
knows of one lawyer in this
state 111 the past who defended
one Hundred and fourteen men
charged with murder and not
one of them was convicted.
Surely some of them were
guilty. That was in the lonu
ago, but not one man in fifty
charged with murder in this
state, i I he has money and in-
lluence, is convicted. Down at
San Antonio a short time ago a
white burglar crept into the
room of a sleeping woman for
the purpose of robbery. She-
awakened and he cut her throat
from ear to ear as he would
have done a hog. The jury
found him guilty, but only sent
him to the penitentiary for life.
Nothing is as bad as lynch law.
Every good citizen will admit
this when he is cool. Hut when
men by means of money and in-
fluence are permitted to murder
and then go Iree. or when jurie*
foolish with sentiment fail to do
their dutv, it is no wonder that
the blood of the people becomes
heated. Take the pistol-cariv-
ing crime, for instance. There
was a law on the statute books
ag.iin*t it. Men continued to
carry pistols because the pun-
ishment in ease of detection
was only a r-S fine. The legis-
lature has now lixed the tine at
$100. If the authorities would
not punish the guilty for thi*
offense when the line was iSS,
that being the amount usually
assesed. does any one believe
that they will do any better for
the public when the line is clou.
The truth i-, a* the Roundup
says, we do not lack laws. We
merely lack officials and men on
the jury who will do their duty
toward the public as well as
their duty toward the person
charged with irime.

There are lots of men in
Texas who are actually spoiling
for office. They are so anxious

frain from making announce-

This disposition should not be
construed as an evidence of
