The Marshal's Raid.

Editor Ardmoreite: ! notice an ar
ticle in your columns concerning our
marshal, Ben Colbert, raiding the
ambling houses of Ardmore on the
light OF the 18th. You conclude your
-rticle by saying it is your belief that
he has made a mistake. Now. It is
my belief that such articles as this
might Il do not say it WILL or that you
intended 1t sol discourage our officers
from trying to enforce the laws of the
United States. Your meaning is not
very clear to me, just what you do
condemn Let us see, one of your
arguments seems to be that the fed
eral officers and the city officials had
an understanding about three years
ago that the city officials were to
have complete control of the gambl-
ing houses. Now is this argument was
still intact why did not our city off.
cials make the raid on the gamblers
that the marshal made? | read in an
other column of your paper sixty cap
tured." Now II is evident from this
that there was good reason for Col
bert's going hunting because he
brought in the game, if the officers
knew this (Which you say they did
and they cannot stop II? Then our
marshal ought to help. But as they
will not then let us encourage the
man who will unless we are in favor
of gambling? again you say it does
not kill the spirit of gambling nor
stop the business. Now such logic
as this would turn almost every Grim
inal out of Jail and stop our courts,
because very few criminals reform.
But shall we stop furnishing men for
theft because they will not stop steal.
ing. And does not the gamblers take
something for nothing? And appro-
pirate IL to himself? But you say the
marshal had no right to burn the prop
erty, that they may" (as though
there might be some doubt of IT. have
the right to confscato and sell Il.
But who wants to buy the card tables
and poker chips of a gambling house
except gamblers and he would soon be
doing business at the old stand You
say in bygone days they burnt such
things. Then hadn't we better revive
the old custom? II under the modern
custom, one gambling house in Ard
more loses $500 worth of furniture? ?
The spirit OF gambling is ripe in the
world many men are not willing to
work and plod. But let us help to
stamp out the vice by law ana pen
and punish the law breakers and s,is.
tain the officers OF the law. What hon.
est bred winner cares anything about
the gamblers furniture Let us teach
men that the word OF God says He
that will not work neither may he
eat" Just where did our marshal
make the mistake? He punished the
gamblers'law breakers. He destroyed
part OF their tools by which they were
getting other mems money for nothing.
He has the law behind him. Really did
he make a mistake?
