In most states lotteries like other
games of chance are forbidden by law
la Maine, the penalty for engaging III
lotteries is very severe, involving i'm
prisonment to all engaged in them, but
the violations of this law in a small way
are numerous. Respectable men take
part in lotteries, evidently thinking
little of the criminality of the course
they pursue. Even churches and other
societies to their diseredt, engage in
schemes where the Illegal, chance ele-
ment, is thrown in to entice patrons to
invest their money for possible gain far
above the cash invested. The public
very largely seem to be sadly askew
upon this question. There are several
standpoints from which to view this evil,
as evil it is from any standpoint. TO

As an illustration of the diserimna-
tion of the statutes of Maine in favor Of
the man who gets his living directly by
manual labor, we cite an insolvency ease
now pending In Somerset Probate court.
\ dividend of II per cent has been de-
clared in favor of prefer red claims which
are almost wholly labor bills, while the
merchant, the farmer, the printer, etc.
who are supposed to have other re-
sources than the labor of their own
hands to depend upon, are obliged to
content themselves with what is left
after the laborer has received his pay in
full, which in the case in point is likely
to absorb the entire assets of the insol
vent estate. This law is good one,
however, and meets the approval of the
people of our State generally, including
business men who frequently lose by it.
