The Gambling Question.

The question of suppresslng
gambling is one of vital Importance
to the law abiding people Of Louisi-
ana. There is stringent statute
against all kinds Of banking games
and gaming houses in this state, but
it is not enforced. In this city, as
in almost every town and village in
the state, this demoralizing and de-
basing evil is carried on without
the slightest attempt at conceal
ment.
Take this city for example. Here
the keepers Of banking games and
gaming houses have enjoyed such
immunity that their acts 60 to es-
tablish the fact that they feel they
have free license to carry on their
nefarious operations. For years no
effort has been made by the proper
officers, whose sworn duty it is to
enforce the law, to break up these
adiuncts of wretchedness, pauper-
ism and crime. The people have
borne with this state of things until
forbearance has ceased to be viz
tue. Realizing the fact that these
potent agencies Of degradation and
ruin are connived at by the officers
Of the law, they are becoming out
spoken in their convictions, and
matters are assuming a shape that
indicates business.
II the statutes against gambling
were enforced the infamy of gamb-
ling houses and their debasing in
fuence, SO VIGOROUSLY apparent,
would soon be crushed out of exist
ence, or their owners would be re-
stricted to such narrow limits they
would not find it profitable to pur-
sue their unholy vocations, and con
sequently would not exercise that
influence in politics, which they are
now credited with exercising.
The harm that has been done to
the morals Of society here and else
where by these pests to all moral
and social obligations cannot be I'M
done, but vigorous and salutary
steps can and will be taken to pre-
vent REPETITION of them.
AS we said a few days since it is
not the fault Of the gamblers that
gambling is openly practiced. It
would be phenomenal if they were
to close their establishments before
they had been asked to do so.
There is much competition and riy-
airy between the different houses
where gambling is carried on, hence
every device is resorted to to allure
the guileless and gullible into their
parlors. No set Of men appreciate
the fact more than do the keepers
Of gaming houses and game keepers
that they are violating the law every
day. But gambling is their voca-
ton and they will carry it on, re-
CARELESS of public sentiment, or the
evil that follows their acts until the
officers of the law interfere and stop
them.
The law Of Louisiana against
gambling is good enough, but to
enforce it requires good men; men
in sympathy with it; men who will
not wink at its violation. The law
against gambling is openly infringed
in Shreveport every day in the year,
and the responsibility for it rests
with the officers and the courts. If
we have officials who have not the
moral courage to do their duty be
cause it would give ofense to this
or that friend they should at once
tender their designations and let
other men take their places
