TEXAS ANTl-GAMBLlNG LAW IS UPHELD.

Fl Pasoans generally will be glad to know that the new injunction law for the suppression of gambling in Texas has been upheld in the district court at Waco. says the Fl Paso Herald.
 The law is based on the broad legal premise that it is lawful to prevent an unlawful act. At the instance of the Citizens League of Fl Paso the last legislature passed a law providing that any person having reason to believe that certain premises were used for gaming might apply for a writ of in- junction, restraining the proprietors of the suspected place from operating games in violation of law.
 A new law was invoked at Waco several weeks ago. A citizen, Moore, applied for a writ restraining another citizen, Allison, from operating games in Waco. Judge Lockett granted a temporary injunction. A motion was made to dissolve, but after a hearing Judge Surratt made the injunction permanent.
 It is a powerful weapon, and almost unerring. With such power to bring to bear in emergency, there is no req son why Fl Paso should not be kep free from public gambling as long a! one loyal citizen and one honest judg' are left in the community.
