the maintaining OF lotteries and the sale of lottery
tickets and the new statute passed in ls6s against

that grave crime did not exist in an
agricultural county like that, but yet If there were
any violations OF the provisions OF the act IN that re.
spect which were known to any OF them, 1t was of
such moment that the Legislature had directed him
