National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1884-02-11

Mr. Rockwell, the new member from Massa-
ohusetts, was recently added to the commit
tee on the District of Columbia, and very
speedily discovered that the district needed a
safe, convenient, and commodious public hail.
He has also discovered that when evening
meetings Of house committees are set mem
bers do not like to go to the capitol, and the
public business suffers because they do not
attend. The logical conclusion is that some
committee rooms somewhere in that portion
of tho city where great majority of the
members live would be good thing. MT.
Rockwell proposes to provide for both neces-
stiles at the same time by the erection of a
public building at some convenient point in
the northwest quarter, tho building to con-
tain both public hall and committee rooms.
He will probably introduce q bill for that
purpose in short time. Said ho: "This city
is tho natural place for holding certain kinds
of conventions and II there was proper hall
they would DO held here, Money spent in

A good many southern men have been
brought to ruin by gambling in cotton
futures" A case which has excited
much attention has just been decided in
Georgia. in which the court held that a
note given to cover margins was void in
the hands of all parties, whether inno-
cent holders or otherwise. In deliver
irg this opinion the judge spoke of faro,
brag and poker as tame, gentle, sub
missive animals compared to this mon
ster, future speculation. which he char
aeterized as aferocious beast allowed to
stalk shout in open midday with gilded
signs and flaming advertisements to al
lure unhappy victims to its embrace of
death and destruction. This forcible
characterization Is none too strong.
The operations of a similar character in
grain and pork in Chicago also have
been as foreibly denounced In the courts
Of that city. They have an air of re-
spectability given to them because they
are carried on BY the board of trade, and
because of this many men are induced
70 engage in them who would not sit
-sa@r1 at faro table.
