York, are really. op- posed. to gan Tt is very doubtful whether two men in ever three do now and then gambje. Gambling is “to risk money or other possession on an event, chance gency.” The contingenc: is of the same nature, whether it is the drop of the roulette ball, the ticker quotations of U. P. or Nipissing or the results of a horse race. The difference between gambling and legitimate risk is Feadily under stood, though difficult of definite definition. The farmer in planting ‘his risk is a necessary incident to the object of his endeavors. The mille “who buys wheat for flour, or the cloth manuf. to spin, Often sells a future contract for the same amount. This dimi ishes his risk. The man who buys this contract may be gambling; the miller is not. Even from what is generally called gambling the dictionary defi- nition excludes alike the man who operates a roulette wheel by hidden springs and E. H. Harriman in his recent U. P. stock deal, To constitute gambling there must be ‘the risk of losing. The crooked faro dealer takes no-risk, neither does the railroad magnate. They are not real “gamblers, but sure-thing men. Common as gambling has always been, there have always been Jaws against it. The old Roman code prohibited gambling. The English law goes so far as to maké the presence.of buzzers, steel doors and secret Signals presumptive proof \that the premises are used as a gambling- house. Under the old common law a gambling-house is a public nuisance. TUENTD BD Evidently not gambling itself, but the manner of conducting it, is what the community disapproves. If it should appear that the police and city officials extorted blackmail from the stock brokers who have -- roped off part of Broad street for their gambling, the public would be .quick to clamor against such a partnership of public officials with crime. I\ cunt Ts That is the real objection to poolrooms. They cannot exist without Police connivan. The police do not connive without being paid for it. The rumors that certain city of markers, to collect when they win and to forget it wher most provocative of public indignation. The issue is not of gambling.
