An ordlnnnce has been Introduced In the
city council 10 Icnso gambling by Imposing
periodic fines upon keepers I ot gambling
houses and hint who make a living out ot
gambling. This Is nothing more nor ' less
than an' attempt 10 nullify the criminal code
relating to gambling ami ( make the mayor
and the polce judge and police force alders
and abettors In the defiant violation oC the
law which they are sworn and In duly boiled
to enCorce.
The plea In favor of the proposed ordinance
Is that gamblng , like prostlnlon , Is I na-
turl vice which no law can cttrpate . one
therefore the most prncllcal way of dealing
with gambling woull be to legalize , regulate
ant supervlo it. Tim assumption that gam-
blinj Is an Inherenl vice on I piano with the
blnl
social evil Is nol well founded. The propensity -
slty of men and women to amuse themselves
with social games In which chance : plays apart
part should not be conroundod with the
vicious dl.pslton of I very sisal ! percentage
of people who are drawn into gamblng dens
by the tempting oPIortunlty lo win large
sums at the gaming table.
But the solat evil has never been licensed
In Omaha. I Is merely tolerated and the
fines Imposed do nol I galzo I or In any
way nullify the statute or compromise the
ofcers of the law. There never has been an
ordinance even Inlr01uce 10 license dlJrderly
hOlsl . and no law-abiding citizen would
countenance such an ordinance so long as the
laws of this state make the keeping of such
resorts n criminal choose.
The effect of the proposed ordinance would !
certainly bi mischievous and demorailzlmig.
I would advertise Omaha abroad ns n law-
defying community . In which gambling dens
wore licensed In defiance of stall laws. The
mere fact that no gambler has been sent to
the penitentiary since gambling was made a
felony affords no excuse for letting down the
bars and running riot ' with open gambling
houses into which hundr'et3 of wage workers
would flock to drop the scanty savings and
earning that should bo given to their fam-
,
ites. !
ites.The
The gambling law Is doubtes : eea severe In
its penalties and Its weakest spot Is the pro-
vision that makes the plucked victim equally
punishable wIth the keeper and capper that
fleeced 1dm. These defects of the law can
and should be amendeF by the next legislature -
ture but EO long as there Is a law against
gambling the council bas no right to nullify
or crcumvent it. Suppose the ordinance Ii-
censing gambling by providing for periodic
fines should be enacted , what poslton would
the gambler be placed In \h9 voluntarily
pleads guilty ? Would the payment of the
fine relieve him from the Ilenaly Impo1e. I
upon gamblers and keepers of gambling
houses by law ? Would not the payment .
ment of the fine b. prima facie proof of guilt
and would nol the county attorney be In duty
bound to prosecute all such persons In the
criminal courts ?

"how It " -I Worl : "
Mayor ' Demls has approved the ordinance
adopted by the city council to lcense gam-
blng In the city of Omaha by means of a
system of prloJlc fines upon keepers , of gam-
blng houses and their Inmates The mayor
says that he approves the measure for the
purpose of seeing how Il will worlc. He w1
find that I will work about as The Bee predicted -
dlcled In Its protest against tile ordinance
last Sunday. I attempts to override the
criminal code relatng , to gambling and
places the legislatve and executive authori-
ties of the city In the attitude , of abettora
and accessories to a business defined by law
as a felonious crime.
I
The mayor has made I mlsl11le. lie has
place himself and the city In nn attitude of
law defiance and has struck a blow at all

making the whole western horizon seem as If
the most opulent dye pots In the , studio of the

Unlce the glories of the setting sun , which
