Gambling Is More Dangerous Than
Drunkenness TO business Integrity.
"Gampungis the skulking, poisonous
foe to business integrity" said an ex-
perieuced business man. ''G ou can see
the signs OF drunkenness" ls said, ''and
guard against being damaged by drink
ing partner or employe, but more often
than not you know nothing of the gam
bler's downward progress until your
losses tell the tale. l have seldom seen a
case in which the habit of gambling did
not have the companion habit of lying.
The lying gets worse as the gambling be-
comes confirmed. Your gambling asso-
ciate comes along with such a cheerful
mask of falsehOOd that you are indignant
when somebody iutlmates that heIs tread
ing the dangerous path of dalliance with
cards or horses.
''someyears ago l had a little expert
ence which pye no doubt many merch-
ants can duplicate. L was managing
partner in branch Of one of the most eX-
lensIye houses in st. Louis. We had q
salesman whom we valued highly. II
came to our knowledge that he was fall
ing III love with poker. L said that be
must be warned. The other partner
thought he was al right, but consented
10 the warning. IN a few months the
man collected bill and lost the money at
poker. / then Insisted on reporting a
discharge to the main firm, but my part
mer stuck TO his faith IN the mans
promises. Finally we compromised by
retaining the delinquent on condition
that my partner notify the firm that he
would be personally responsible 1or
losses caused by a repetition OF the occur
renee. We also sent TO every customer a
notice that all bills should be paid di-
rectly to our headquarters.
Before six months had passed the
salesman managed to collect a bill OF
81, 500, and lost every dollar.
My partner took the money out OF his
pocket and reimbursed tae firm. 1t is
not necessary TO tell any body VINO knows
gam blers thai he never received cent
from the man he had befriended.

devouring fend, shall be set up and have
effect without such substantiating evil
dence as will justify the conclusion that
his good character has been a mask and
a cheat, put on for the very purpose of
the more easily accomplishing fendish
ends.
Let the public be prepared for host of
pet theories and mass of unsupported
statements now accepted as establishing
guilt as legal certainty being thrown
out when it comes to trying this man for
his life. The trial of Durrant will pro-
ceed upon precisely the same lines and
subject to the same wise rules and pre-
scribed procedure as are applied to any
other case in which the law seeks to ar
rive at the truth through the examina-
tion of witnesses or the weighing of cir
cumstances and their relation to each
othor.
1t is noted already that there are skilled
detective officers who express the belief
that Durrant is not guilty; that his is q
case Of mistaken identity, and there is
danger of his being made the victim Of
circumstances that should apply to an
other. Of course such opinions are offset
by equally as positive expressions by
other detectives that Durrant is proved
guilty already by circumstances that cam
not be shaken, and that are far stronger
than oral testimony possibly could be.
But all this goes to emphasize the warn
ing we have given that the public must
not accept all the statements made by the
San Francisco press as matters that will
| have standing in court when Durrant's 5
trial comes on. Present developments
indicate to our intelligence that Durrant
is guilty, after casting out the statements
that will not be admitted at the trial. We
think that the motive for the two
deeds is not difficult to discover, and
that no other person than Durrant
had such motives for the disposal of the
two girls in the manner, at the time and
not propose TO allow this belief to be un-
qualified or to interrupt the presumption
of the law that the prisoner is innocent
until he is proven guilty and 80 pro-
nounced by jury of his country. There
is more injury to the public and to the
cause of justice in trial by popular ex-
element, and the irregular statements OF
alleged witnesses not under the solemnity
of an oath nor subjected to the test of
cross-examination, than in the miscar-
riage Of justice now and then in the case
OF one clearly guilty.
One thing concerning which the public
may well be solicitous is that the trial of
Durrant shall be speedy, without, how
ever, sacrifice of his rights guaranteed by
! the law which is the product of the peo-
! pie. Crime fourishes most when GER
| tainty of punishment is weakened. The
many continuances, the petty skirmish-
| ing to keep a case alive until the wit
nesses are dead or gone to parts un-
| known, and the public has become for
getful of the horror of the otfense; the
lingering for months and years of cases
that ought to be disposed of within a few
weeks, while all the facts are fresh in
memory and all the witnesses are alive
and the public patience has not been
worn out by tiresome procrastinatiou-
these constitute the reproach of our sys-
! tenn of law.
