WHERE LAxITY LEADS.


The trial OF Horace Dunbar. propri-
etor Of the Rainier-Grand hotel in Seat
tie. on the charge of operating an cleo
trically controlled roulette wheel in his
hotel serves to call attention to the in
evitable results OF allowing the law b,
be disregarded in some instances and in
others enforcing it.
While the regular gambling houses In
Seattle were paying regular fines into
the city treasury. Dunbar was not. 1t
was an open secret that he was run
ming game in his hotel. which was
the leading one in the city, and that
travelling men and others would be easi-
" inyeigled into playing where they
might fairly infer from the surround
ings that there would be a square deal.
The strong allegation that Dunbar was
fleeing his victims by fixed" faro
boxes and electric roulette wheels is a
mere detail. The fact that he was per-
mitted. with the undoubted knowledge
Of the police. to keep his games going
when the public gambling houses were
closed, and that he did not even go
through the formality Of paying his fine
10 the city. shows the state of morals
that is engendered OF laxity in the en-
forcement Of the laws
Gambling has now been made fell
ony in the state of Washington. and
public opinion at present is such that
those persisting in gambling will re-
ceive felon's deserts. How long such
a condition Of affairs will last depends
upon the people themselves. Too many
citizens. who are too lazy and careless
to bestir themselves in the suppression
OF the abuses they deplore. throw the
blame upon the police for permitting
gambling and other vices to flourish
unchecked. II is the people and not
the police that should be blamed.
Ii is of laxity that corruption is born.

AN EXTRA SESSION.
Fears That New York Legislature In
HOpelessly DeadIO0ked.


HOpelessly DeadlOoked.
ALBANY, N. Y, April 21.-With q
calendar of fifty pages, the largest thus
far this session, and business sufficient
to keep the members busy until mid
night at least the senate adjourned q
few minutes after 8 O'Clock last night
without transacting much business.
The motion to adjourn was made by
Senator Nathaniel A. Elsberg and was
carried by the Democrats, with Sena
tors Bracket, Brown and Elsbere
(Reps.) voting in favor of the measure
and the Republican senators, headed
by Senator Raines, voting against it.
The sudden adjournment after a halt
hour session created considerable dis
cussion regarding the motive of Sena-
tor Elsberg in holding up the business
of the senate during these the closing
hours, when every minute is precious.
Senator Elsberg when asked his rea-
son said:
mo particular reason, but am sick
and if this motion was not carried
would have gone to my hotel and to
bed anyway"
Senator John Raines was less reti-
cent. He said:
Its Elsberg's coroners bill, guess
He wanted to show what power he
had. He can go ON doing this thing
right along if the Democrats will vote
with him. If the appropriation and
supply bills don't go through there will
have to be an extra session. Then
Brown, you know, doesn't want q re
gent appointed in place Of the late
Martin l. Townsend"
The Democrats voted 10 adjourn be-
cause the Niagara Falls charter amend
ment bill was to have come UP on final
passage. The Independents voted to
adjourn, it is understood, principally 10
help Elsberg in his fight for the coro-
ners bill. An extra session of the legis-
lature may be necessary II the block
ade is to continue.
Governor Odell in message to the
legislature urged the appointment of a
commission to consider the various
propositions looking toward education
al unificat ton.
Assemblyman Palmer of Schoharie,
minority leader, Immediately after the
reading of the message introduced a
bill providing for the election by the
people Of the state superintendent of
public instruction for a term of four
years, with salary of $4,000. The
al s,,k 10, =
in the manner of election of other
state officers. The bill was referred to

ST. PAUL, Mimi, April 21.-An ex-
pertinent that may revolutionize the
iron and steel industry of the commu-

Valley Iron works. Titanic iron ore, of
which there are billions of tons in
northern Minnesota, was sheltered in
an ordinary cupola and turned out pig
iron which polished up like steel and
which, according to those interested in
the experiment, is better than the finest
beSsemer steel
