On the first page of this issue OF the
News appears an article written by
Mrs. Alice Flynn, now a resident OF ,
Billings, but formerly business wo-
man of Livingston. Billings has been
undergoing about the same form OF
crusade with regard to gambling as
Forsyth and this article was written
in defense of the issue and appeared
in the columns of the Billings Times
of last Friday. We have been reques-
ted to publish this article and 90 so IL.
a spirit of fairness to all conserved.
Even the self confessed murderer is
not condemned without hearing and
we see no reason why both sides OF
this case should not be heard. At the
last session of our state law making
body one of the Legislators attempted
the passage of law to license gam
bling and in his speech before that
august assemblege gave his reasons for
fathering the BILL calling attention
to the fact that we had state law
against gambling and that the law
was not in any degree observed; that
the officers, state, county and city
were inclined to wink at the fragrant
violation. We do not pretend to be
an authority upon the subject, but
from observation we are inclined to
argee with this legislator. Saloons
are licensed, why not gambling?
They appear to us to be about on
par. No man gets into any form OF
gambling device but that he knows
what he is entering; the man who
goes into saloon knows very we'll
what he is after. Nine out of ten of
the men who get into gambling games
do so with the hope of winning; do
they not know that they are placing
themselves on par with the profess
sional gambler? If they win few
dollars everything is lovely, but If
they lose the song is sung with a hot
time refrain; they allege unfair
play, possibly there was unfairness we
are not in position to state, but we
do know that they went into the game
with their eyes open, and are in very
poor business when they get out on a
TRADE, all fair minded people will at
once conclude that their action is
more from spirit vindictiveness and
to "get even" than it is for the good
of the cause. We have lived in states
where gambling was made punishable
by term in the penitentiary from
one to five years, yet any one who
was bent upon playing could find a
bcak room, or an attic or basement
available where he could indulge his
appetite. We have state law against
gambling and the law shuold be OBJ
served, but when it is impossible tC
elect officials who will enforce the
law, and when an attempt is made a,
such enforcement it creates wrangle
that is echod from one end Of the
state to the other, we believe it il
time to enact a law that will permit
the people to live together in peace
and harmony.

argument in the case of Mary A. Bur-
roughs agt. the knights of Columbus, a
suit to recover the sum of $1,000, alleged
to be due the plaintiff as the beneficiary
Of an insurance policy taken out by the
late VIM ]. Burroughs, her son.
The defendant corporation, through its
attorneys, Messrs. Brent and Riley, claimed
that at the time of his death VIM j. Bur-
roughs was not member of the knights
of Columbus in goood standing owing to
the fact that several of his monthly as
sessments had not been paid by him with
in the prescribed time. Messrs. John NJ
Johnson and Leo p. Harlow, attorneys for
the plaintiff. placed Mr.. B. L. Carne, jr.,
the financial secretary of the local council,
upon the stand. who testified that the
council had at the end of each month re-
mitted the assessment of each delinquent
member to the supreme body of the order
and that before his death the local council
had been fully repaid by Mr.. Burroughs
for the amount SO advanced on his &C
count.
The case was then given to the jury who
returned verdict for $1,000, the full
amount of the policy, with interest from
January %, 1905, to date. The attorneys
for the defendant were given ninety days
within which to file BILL
Fine of $25.

charged from a pistol in the hands of

BAILIFF DIES OF CANCER
Captain Rector Succumbs to Illness
That Had Kept Him in Pain
Several Years

Capt. William Rector, one of the best
known and best liked men in Southern
California, died yesterday morning at
his home, 2720 South Grand avenue,
after a lingering illness of several years.
Billy Rector, as he is better known
to thousands of his friends, was one
of the most prominent members of the
G. A. r. in~the west. Up to the time
of the Civil War he worked as farmer
and then Joined the forces of the Union
at the earliest opportunity and fought
throughout the war. During the battle
of Gettysburg he received wounds in
his stomach from which cancer later
developed and which eventually caused
his death.
Recently Capt. Rector, still clear
minded and active at the age of "A
years, was appointed as bailiff of de-
partment Of the superior court.
He held that position until about six
months ago, when his old illness at
tackled him and he was compelled to
go to the California hospital for treat
ment.
Later he was removed to his home,
and although bearing the terrible pain
as he had borne it during the dark
hours of the great war the captain
failed rapidly and his death came as a
relief from his sufferings.
Officers of Bartlett Logan post, e. A
r., are making arrangements for the
funeral.
