Lirhter Horses Better.

- Ea--tG4
Farmers who have watched the cas-
with which the large draft horses han
die heavy loads on good roads or city
paVements have been led to think that
al heavy horse must be the better ami
NAL in all cases, and we see many
farm teams that are far inferior in the
amount of work they can do in blowing
or in drawing a load upon soft ground
than a much lighter team would do cas-
lily. Then the heavy horses are driven
over our hilly roads often at q rate of
speed that causes them to pound the
earth so that the legs give out, and
they are quickly lame. It2eertainly re-
quires more food t. sustain 1900
pound horse than one weighing from
1000 to 1,2o0 pounds, and when not
constantly employed drawing heavy
loads the amount ofswork done by the
heavy horses does not compensate for
the extra cost Of maintaining them. AS
farmers will have next spring to buy
horses or many will we advise them to
turn their attention to the smaller
horses from Canada IL they a be
found rather than to the Percherons
and Shire horses that have been SO pop
ular lately. They will cost less prices,
cost less to keep, do about as much
work and endure much longer.-Amert-

Gambling in Bismarck has been for
years a legislative adjunct. There is
very little OF ite3cept when the legis-
1ature lis in session. i Not that the de-
sires and habits OF the North Dakota
legislator are any different than those
who make the laws I'M other states;
gambling in one form O another is
freely indulged in in the capital cities
of all states during the legislative per-
iod. Poker and other games always
thrive in the vicinity OF laW-making
bodies--poker always, other games
sometimes. Gambling will have to
take on the secluded form-poker-
in Bismarck this winter, else the move
baken Monday is meaningless. 1t matt
tiers not what motives actuate the pres
emit moYe. The step has been taken.
An innocent looking table, dusty and
idle-Waiting for the arrival Of the gay.
and festive legislator, has been taken
into custody. The law on gambling
and gambling devices in North Dakota
is quite severe. AS to the merits of
gambling they do not exist. Perhaps
of all forms the roulette wheel is the
most seductive and the most destruc-
tive of public morals. 1T invites the.
youth to dissipation and frequently
takes from the family the means that
should make home comfortable and its
members happy. Gambling returns
nothing to the community at large for
its privileges except sorrow, corrup-.
tion and crime. It docs not support
either the pulpit or the press, the IL
brary o. the public schools. 1t does:
not reduce taxation, but o n the on
trary adds to the burden Of many who.
can iIl-afford to leave their small earn
ings in games of chance. The pro-
fessional gambler has no regard for
the weakness of human nat1re-he:
lives on it. The wealthy, the poor
wage Garner, the minor and the weak
are all the same to him. Laws are
made in many instances to protect the
weak and the gambling laws are in this
line. Gambling is not a necessity
its a curse. Its influence is pernicious
and degrading-infinftely more 50 than
the liquor traffic because it's disap-
pointments frequently couple financial
ruin with over-indulgence at the cup.
Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1900-12-26

The liquor traffic can be regulated in
all communities-while the evils OF
gambling can only be ayoided by Its
total adjustment. It may seem a
little harsh to deprive the Legislators
of one of the principal attractions OF
a legislative session but Bismarck can
get along all right without gambling.
All the gambling houses in New
York city are to be closed-hy order
Of Tammany-and Bismarck follows
suit.
