TRIAL IS SET FOR MONDAY

George L. GoOdacre must stand
trial on the indictment charging
him with setting up a gaming
table, by having a fixed place at
which bets on the result of the
races might be made, according
to the decision of Justice Bar
nard rendered today on a motion
to quash the indictment. The
court overruled the motion. hold
ing that while the indictment
might have been more specific the
words used are sufficient to show
what the defendant is charged
with and to indicate an offense
under the statute. The court an
nounced that it ought not in such
case to allow any technicality
to interfere with the indictment.
United States Attorney BAKER has
advised Attorneys Davis, earring

Justice Barnard SAID:
I'm the case of the United States

motion to quash the Indictment was ar
gued last Monday, the court has reached
conclusion, which it will now announce.
The argument was very full in this case,
aud very satisfactory, and 1 have given
1t as careful considera ton as l could in
the time had. but l am unable to agree
with counsel Tor the defendant that this
indictment is bad. and is subject to be
quashed on motion. for several reasons
The Indictment is in three counts. The
frst charges the defendant with betting
with a certain person on the result of
races being run in the United States and
before the running of the races The
criticism upon that count is mainly that
II does not set out what the race was
that was bet upon, what particular race;
nor does IL set out what particular thing

article of value, and for that reason the

A Crime Against Society.

Voluntary self murder is not only a
violation Of the divine law, but is also
q crime against society. We are So
cial beings. We owe duty to the COM
monwealth as we'll as to ourselves. We
mutually depend on one another, like
the members Of our physical body.
"For none of us liveth to himself: and
no man dieth to himself" Human So
ciety may be compared to a grand ar
my, every member of which has a
special place and mission assigned to
him by his sovereign commander. To
abandon the post of duty intrusted to a
sentinel is regarded by the military
code as a most cowardly act, which is
punished with extreme rigor. What
less does the suicide do than basely
abandon the situation assigned to him
In the warfare ofllife? And there is no
vice more contagious than cowardly
desertiop. It is often followed by a
general mutiny. The same is true of
suicide. When few deeds of self MUIR
der are widely circulated by the press
they are not infrequently followed by
numerous voluntary slaughters. A sui.
cidal wave rolls over the land Cardi.

truth is that American liberty is the mere creature of rhetoric
 Americas view of patriotism is dis tinguished by the same ingenious ex- aggeration as her view of liberty. She has as little doubt of her grandeur as of her freedom. She is, in brief, Gods own country, and in her esteem Columbus was no mere earthly eX- plorer; he was the authentic discoyerer of the promised land.
 Neither argument nor experience will ever shake the American's con- fidence in his noble destiny. On all other questions uncertainty Is possible It is not possible to discuss Americas s supremacy. In arms, as in arts, the United States Is unrivalled. It alone enjoys the blessings of civization. It alone has been permitted to comb inc material with moral progress. It alone has solved the intricate problems of life and politics.
 "It has the biggest houses, the best government and the purest law that the world has ever known. Perfect freedom Is It's exclusive privilege, as ky-scrapers and elevated railways are it's exclusive possessions.

 You cannot pick up a newspaper without being reminded that liberty is the exclusive possession of the United States. The word, if not the quality, is the commonplace of American history. It looks out upon you-the word again. not the quality-from every hoarding. It is uttered in every discourse, but the
