In other words, McCarthy secks to present the Eastern syndicatée of gamblers with a monopoly of the gambling on racing and give it the exclusive right in this city and county to | filch the dollars from the public. While both ordinances are evidently in- tended to limit the period of racing the language is fatally defective therein, for there is nothing to prevent other race- tracks or grounds from being constructed, and as the restriction is placed only on any one inclosure the consequence would be that racetracks would spring up like | mushrooms and the city would be deluged | with an army of gambling vultures, all seeking to rob the unwary McCarthy's ordinance reads as follow: To Protect Track Gamblers. Section 1.

Shipping by sea is the gre rate gulator of advantage If we did not have t it is hard to tell what the railroads would not do to us." He argued that St. Louis’ fight was aimed just as much at the Atlantic sea- hoard as the Pacific Co and asserted that the Middle West city was trying to “make a little world all by i Mr. Rulofson turned his attention to an exhibit furnished during the Los Angeles session by Mr. Walte of St. Louis, pur- porting to show frei wies” paid, per cent of profit, differenti c.. which are he witness pulled Mr. Waite's compilatio to pieces and sald that at best they w only “the guess of an amateur.” porate limits of the city and county deals, ys or carries on, opens or causes to be or who condu ther as owner or . any game played with cards, dice or any device for money, checks or credits as the result of any such game, is punishable by a less than $10 nor more than $100, prisoned for not less than ten nor more than up or causes ated, any ma- anical contrivance of any kind which may be put in motion or action by drop- ping or depositing in any place therein or any portion thereof of any coin, metal or other check or other device which' sald machine or mechanical contrivance has attached thereto, or in connection therewith or in the vicinity thereof any card or placard or anyshing writ- ten or printed setting forth the promise of the payment or of the giving v of any sum of money or any articles « mber of arti- cles of merchandise or orders for the same, cr checks, or any other representative of value to be paid or redeemed at place or by any per- son dependent on any contingency connected ith or upon the operation of the machine or mechanical contrivance as aforesaid, is pun- ishable by a fine of not less than $10 nor more than $1, £ and in defas shall be imprisoned not less than ten days nor more than 1M days. A second ordinance, which, together with the first, was referred to the License and Order Committee, repeals the order now in effect imposing a license of $3 per quarter on all sucn machines. Anti-Lottery Order. Upon the request of Chief of Police Sul livan Supervisor Tobin introduced an or- der which was passed to print, intended to. prohibit lottery and lottery ‘drawings. It reads as follows: Section 1. It shall be unlawful for any per- son (o pass. give or deliver to another, or cir- culate any papers, writings prints, bills, hand- bills, cards, instruments or devices which ex- clusively purport to be or represent to be coples, statements or memoranda of a lottery drawing or which exclusively purport to be or repre- sented to be statements, declarations, coples or memoranda or lists of the lucky or winning characters, numbers or figures in or of a lot- tery or in or of a lottery drawing. Sec. 2. Any person violating any of the pro- visions of this ordinance shall bhe deemed gullty of a misdemeanor and punished by a fine of not more than $0, or by imprisonment for six months, or both. Another ordinance in this connection, which was also passed to print, prohibits the possession of lottery tickefs, papers, stamps, tools, Instruments or devices. et COURT NOTES.
