The reclamation of tue arid wastes
of southwestern desert lands proceeds
marvelously apace. Another reclama.
tion company was incorporated at San
Bernardino, Cal, few days ago, with
a capital stock of 81, 500, 900. A dam
is to be erected at Victor Narrows, on
the Mojave River in San Bernardino
County, fifteen feet in height, which
will make lake nine miles long and
about three wide, whose waters will be
used to irrigate about 200, 900 acres of
land on the Mojave Desert, which will
then be especially adapted for growing

LOCALIZED GAMBLING HELL.
Wyoming Licenses Games of Chance
Always son the Square,"
Cheyenne Letter in Chioago Tribune.

Cheyenne Letter in Chicago Tribune.
Wyoming has for many years allowed
women the suffrage, and the suffragists
claim to have made the state more law
abiding and civilized. Yet gambling is
legalized there, and is carried on in a way
that in New York would result in a great
public scandal. To visitors to Wyoming,
particularly to eastern visitors, 1.-The
strangest law in existence here is the law
in relation to gambling, for under its
ample provisions. in most of the towns
and cities of the state, the person who
wishes to gamble need not go through
dark alleys and climb narrow staircases
to crafty this passion, nor is it necessary
for the proprietors of faro layouts to
stand in with the powers that be. It is
not criminal act TO gamble or to permit
gambling.
Under a lawswhich has been in force
for years any person may procure a
license for carrying on any game of faro,
monte, roulette, lansquenette, rondo,
vingt-et-un, keno or props Blank licenses
are prepared by the register of deeds of
each county in the state, and they are
signed, issued and accounted for as is by
law REQ uired with respect to other county
licenses. Each license delivered by the
sheriff contains the name of the licensee,
a description of the room in which tn e
licensee desires to carry on the game
mentioned, and by its terms authorizes
the licensee to carry on the game men
toned. For such license there is paid
the sum of 5000 year. Appropriate pen
alties are provided for carrying on these
games without licenses.
by another section of the law any per
son or persons VINO shall keep or deal or
permit TO be kept or dealt in any building
or place under his or their control any
other banking or other game of chance for
money or other representation of value,
played with cards or other devices, shall
be deemed guilty of misdemeanor, and
on conviction thereof shall be punished
by fine of not less than $500 nor more
than 81 900, or by Imprisonment not less
than three months nor more than one
year, or by both such fine and imprison-
ment.
The seductive three-card monte man
is shut out by the following provision:
provided, That the word monte in
this chapter shall not be construed to
mean 'three-card monte.
Attempts to repeal these laws have
been maze from time to time, and the
last legislature considered a bill making
gambling criminal, but it failed to pass.
The theory of those in favor OF legalized
gambling is that gam bling is an evil i'm
possible of suppression, especially in
sporting communities. such as most west
ern towns are. To suppress gam bling by
law. it is further claimed, would result in
the opening of hidden dives, where play ers
would be robbed. In Wyoming cheating

Atlanta, Ca, July 19.-The consolida-

by the county committee to-day shows
Congressman Liyingston's majority over
Col. Milton Gambler TO be 9SS. Col. Liv-
'ingston left for Washington at noon, feel
ing very Jolly over his victory in Fulton,
while about the same time Col. Gambler
handed a card in TO the Journal office
making a formal withdrawal from the
congressional race. This was anticipated.
Col. Gambler had no chance of success
without the support of Fulton county,
and the only thing left for him to do was
10 gracefully accept the result, which he
does in style highly gratifying to his
loyal friends.
Yesterdays primary was an attempt to
consolidate all the county Offices in one
election. Heretofore three different
primaries have been held for county
officers. There was some confusion in
the experiment yesterday, and in some of
the wards the count was not completed
until q o'clock this morning, but alto
gether, the plan is generally approved,
and will be continued hereafter, with
probably the addition of something on the
order of the Australian ballot system.

THE MAHDIsTs ROUTED.
An italian Force Whips 5000 and
Occupies KassaIa.


Rome, July 19.-The government has
received information from Africa that a
battle was fought Tuesday between a
force of Mahdists, 5000 strong, and a de-
tachment of Italian troops. near Kassala
The Mahdists were defeated and the Ital-
ians took possession of Kassala, which
they occupied. The Italian loss was
slight.
The Italian advance began from Agor-
dat on July II, and was a sequence to
various raids by the Mahdists on Italian
territory, in which they killed natives
and took slaves. Col, Baratieri, gov
ernor of the district, collected 2,400
troops, mostly natives, with fifty-four
Italian officers, and pursued them several
days. The troops reached Kassala at
dawn Tuesday, and found the enemy pre-
pared to give battle. A fierce fight en-
sued.
Many Mahdists were killed and
wounded. The remainder of the Nah
dists fed and many of the fugitives were
drowned while attempting TO cross the
river Agbara, which is greatly swollen by
floods
