THE LOTTERY QUESTION.

The Lyon County Times in discuss
ing the lottery question says:
sSome years ago a lottery amend
ment was defeated in this State, and
today many who voted against lot
terry are wondering how they are ever
going to get water storage system IN
this State. Had lottery been es-
tablished at that time there would now
be several hundred thousand dollars in
the State irrigation fund. This money
could be used for building storage res
ervoirs, ETC., which everyone admits
must be done by this State before long
to keep it in existence.
'sIf lottery company would agree
to place s25, 900 to $40, 600 year in
State irrigation fund yearly for the
privilege OF doing business In Nevada,
we would favor lottery as this seems
to be the only way to get any money to
settle the vexed water question.
There may be people in the State
who 'are wondering how they are ever
going to get water storage system in
this State, but they are not consider
ing the ACCESSIBILITY of getting 1t through
the establishment of a lottery. If the
lottery amendment had been adopted
in 1889 aud water storage SYSTEM bad
resulted, which is doubtful, it would
have been obtained at the sacrifice oil
the best interests of the people OF the
State and they would now be complete
ly at the mercy of the lottery crowd.
This would have been paying fearful
cost for the system.
Any scheme devised for the purpose
of putting money into the treasury OF
the State at the expense of the man.
hood OF Its people is vicious and should
not be countenaneed by them. There
are other ways beside a lottery to raise
all the money needed by the State for
legitimate purposes. One of them is
the amendment of the revenue law so
that every species of property will bear
just proportion of the expenses of State
and county government. When this is
done there will be no need of a lottery
to raise money for a water storage sys-
tenn or any other purpose.
Those who advocate the lottery in
the press state with good deal Of force
that the question will be submitted to
the people for their adoption or re-
lection. They do not say however,
that it will in all probability be submit
ted to the people at a special election
as in 1889. II the men back of this
scheme have sufficient strength in the
legislature TO procure the adoption of
the amendment they will use that
strength to force special election upon
the people at a cost of something like
s25, 600 or $50, 600. That was tho course
pursued In 1889 and it will be repeated
in 1901 If the lottery amendment now
pending is passed by the next legisla-
ture.
Unless the people want the luxury of
a special election to crafty the greed
OF the men who are attempting to fasten
a lottery upon the State, they should
defeat every candidate for the legisla-
ture who favors the scheme By so do
ing they will not be burdened with the
expense OF special election. indie
