war ON

WASHINGTON, Jan. M.-An earnest de-
sire Is manifested by a few members of
congress, among whom Gen. Browne, OF
Indiana, Is most prominent, to have this
congress pass a law to cripple the opera
tions of lottery companies, IL not to sup.
press them. The easiest way to reach
them is believed to be through an amend
ment to the postal laws, f%orbidding the
circulation of any newspaper or pub
location through this mails that contains
any lottery advertisement or other article
for the promotion of gambling by lottery.
The mosi powerful lottery company is le-
galized by a certain state in the south,
and, intrenched behind that barrier, be-
sides being possessedof great wealth gath
cred from its dupesi in all parts of the coun-
Try, 1t is able to employ able counsel to
light against n anenaaehsaA.. ...rrss;ss the Ii
privileges it now enjoys. The Judiciary
committee of the house gave a hearing to
Gen. Browne In favor of his anti-lottery
bill, and to two well-known LAWYERS on
behalf OF the company referred to above.
The main reliance of the company's
counsel appears to be upon the theory
that congress has no constitutional right
to deny the use Of the mails to news-
pagers containing advertisements of a
legitimate business. TIE judiciary com
mittee has reached no conclusion ON the
subject. The house poGtoffice committee
also has similar a~nti-1ottery bills and
the chairman thinks will report n of
them favorably.

change would be scarcely noticeable. II
the tariff on lumber was removed gradu-

manufacturers would not suffer any hard
ships, while if lumber were put on the

Der would be to boom Canada timber
lands. Michigan capitalists would buy
