of some half dozen gambling houses in New Orleans,
who have not paid the State tax and gives the follow
inc reason for doing:
The power of the State Tax Collector is limited by
,be law to mere notifications and the duty of closing
them Is delegated to the State Auditor That office
being in hockety, the Times assumes its duties in the
premises and notifies the proprIetors OF the above
pamed Gambling houses, that unless they pay up i'm
mediaely this call will be repeated under their full
names We cannot allow the interests of the public
to suffer while the Governor and Auditor are nursing
their amiable little difficulties.
