Such a Decision Is Handed Down by Attorney General Prout. Attorney tleiieral Front lias ham down u decision that the gambling law of tliis stale making gambling a felony is invalid and of no elTec'. The reasons given by the attorney general lor Ins decision are tlie same us mentioned in this column several days ago when the matter first came Up. lie holds that the liile of the bill is not proper, in that the body of the bill contained wider matter than was shown by the title, and I hat all of the bill which was change I lifter it passed the senate, where it originated, was not read three tituvs in each house, as provided for in the einiHlitutioii. This decision leaves the old gambling law. which provided a penalty of a line of $loo or three months in jail, still in force. The county attorney of York county wrote lo the attorney general for the opin ion. A number of prominent Lincoln at torneys do not agree witn the attorney general on his stand. Former County Attorney Manger, who fought out the whole thing in the local courts six or seven years ago, said that the attor ney general certainly did not go en tirely through the matter or he would not have arrived at such a conclusion.
