Governor Flower has discharged an obvious
duty in signing the Anti-Poolroom bill. The
fate of this measure was in doubt for some time
after the Senate acted upon it 10y an almost
unanimous vote, but in the end it went through
the Assembly with flying colors, only handful
of votes being recorded in the negative If
enforced, this law will break up the city pool
rooms entirely, as it makes pOol>ellins felony,
and it was so carefully drawn as to render the
evasion OF it virtually impossible. monsirous
evil and prolific source of decentralization is thus
done away with. The enactment of the law
is conspicuous triumph fer morality, and
proves that one most excellent thing has pro-
ceeded from Legislature phenomenally bad.
