made Tammany orators and leaders anu apo,o-
gsts always profuse in their praises OF inc
Police Department. which they declared to be the
best Disciplined the purest the finest and most ell
cient In the world. The evidence given before the
Lexow Committee proves conclusvey that the 70

THE HOSTILITY TO BETTING-RINGS
: The signs multiply every hand that the wave
Nof public sentiment against betting is a tldai wave
,and that will sweep everything before It, Please
Tread the following extract from The Newborn
Sun of yesterday morning:
The New Jersey authorities having succeeded in
ienectuaily stamping the racetrack swlnders oy
iand turf betting the courts are now turning their
lattention to the smaller fry OF swnqefs wT 81
rustic visitors Judge Leon Albeit in his charge 10
The Grand Jurors the other day laid down the law
with the utmost exactness. He did not confne his
attention to the swinders alone out auvseu tng
these men TO Div their trade ana the police officers
who stood idly by without making any arrests were
talso liable to indictment
Now what can The sun" possibly have meant by
that intense and incisve expression "racetracK
.swindlersp? Can it be that there are ever any
''swindlers'' on any racetrack? The sun Is not
wont to be ntolerably censorous in regard to sports
of any kind The sun" knows English if any
paper in the world knows it. The sun does T T mo
use 50 strong word as swindet nsnuS, - IN

regulations concerning pooselling and turf betting.
Those words in The sun may be bitter reading
for the men whose mistakes provoked the most
stringent regulations concerning pooseilns ana
turf betting" but The Sun undoubtedly Is wen
Informed and knows what it is talking about no"
interesting it would be If The sun would name
1.-THE racetrack swlndlcrs' to whom its pungent ar
ticle refers.
But the fact that Judge Albeit delivered so ORA
CONAN charge to Grand Jury in regard TO
gambling shows that the earth does move ana
Eew-Jersey moves with it, When Leon Albeit now
q supreme Court Juure in New-Jersey. was
the Governor of New-Jersey. some people sus
pected that Governor Albeit had soft PlSce N
his heart FOR racetrack of good sound Demo
cratic principles. who could be trusted TO sulPor'
ship 1t was thought possible in some quarters that
the Governor might pei1apS 70 if he could
climb into a Senatorship on the backs Of those race
shen and Judge Abbetts heart is adamant
against racetrack men.
