The Five Mile Beach Journal, pub
lished at wildwood, n. j., was refused
admission to the Post Office at that
place by the local postmaster Ryan,
and the publisher had to print another
edition. The ground for refusing to
mail il was an item in the local column
about a rattle that took place Christmas
day and Mr.. Ryan held that it was a
violation of the post office ruling giving
postmasters the right to refuse TO mail
any newspaper with any advertisement
or account of a lottery OF drawing etc.
The Elmer Times believes a strict inter
probation of the an~ti-lottery law would
prevent the carrying Of the Bible
through the U. S. mails and most as
suredly would shut out a newspaper
which printed those portions Of the
Scripture which gives an account OF
the drawing fol the vesture of the Mes
siah at the c%rucifxion.
**
The law under which the Postmaster
rejected the newspapers from the mail
was made to kill the Louisiana lottery
and we fail to see where the principle
of gambling at a local rails or chance
picking of a certain number for the dis.
posal of a pig, turkey, barrel OF flour or
any other thing of value is different in
principle. Both are gambling only one
may be done for a profit to the party
who runs the lottery and the other in
the name of ''sweet charity or "for a
good cause.n The only difference is in
the size, While charity may cover a
multitude of sins yet will it cover the
temptations and learning to gamble?
1t was a common occurrence TO build
churches so or 100 years ago with mon
ey raised from lotteries and the nrst
wharf at New Castle was built with
money raised by a lottery. The whole
history of the building of churches and
for other charitable and public purpos-
es by lotteries was fully given before the
legislature three years ago by Samuel
Kalish and the plea for the race track
laws was based upon the permission OF
those old lotteries for Christian and
charitable purposes. The SAINT plea is
made for "charity" or a good cause''
to day-''the churches do it," IL is
pleasing to note the advancement OF
morality in this line, as it is very rare
ly that Protestant Churches now allow
rafles or a CHANGING of articles to get
money. 1t is also TO be regretted that
Church members set a bad example by
conducting and participating in such
gambling when carried on by other
than Christian organizations.
