Race-Track Gambling.

Despite the clamOrS OF special inter-
ests' with their heavy ammunition. the
New York legislature is about to pass GER
tain bills which strike at the race-tgack
gambling evil in that state. The as
sembly has already approved the meas
Ures by an overwhelming vote and the
senate, which was regarded as doubtful
yesterday voted 70 TO 23 against an
amendment which postponed until Sep
rember the effectiveness of the proposed
law. This vote has been accepted as
test of the sentiment of the upper house
and the ultimate passage OF the bills is
regarded as certain, by perhaps larger
majority than that given yesterday
against the delaying amendment.
The situation in New York state is
practically the same as in the District Of
Columbia. Gambling is prohibited in all
forms save at tine race tracks. Betting
on the horse races is prohibited at all
places save within the racing grounds. In
other words, in New York as in the Dis
trict the definition of gambling varies
with the place of performance.
1t is this discrimination in favor of a
certain particularly vicious form of
gambling that it is sought now in the Dis
Ilitt DIS III A>c" Ioi W rhu ~ tiiC
means OF direct legislation. The measure
proposed here is simplicity itself. 1t
merely strikes from the existing law the
words which draw a line of distinction
one mile beyond the so-called Eity limits
ard grant permission to the race track
gamblers to ply their trade beyond that
line. In other words it carries to the eX-
treme boundaries of the District the pro-
l.ibtion against gambling in all forms
which prevails throughout the uroan area.
II is the expectation of the citizens of
Washington that the Senate District COM
mittee. which now has the bill before it,
Will this week adopt favorable report
and put the measure upon its passage in
the Senate, without amendment, thus
laying the way open to the explicit pro-
hibition of race-track gambling anywhere
within the District. AS fir as it has
been ascertaned. the sentiment of the
members OF that committee favors the
passage of the bill. There is a singular
lack of open opposition to the measure.
May it not be assumed that the upper
house, upon receiving the favorable re-
pert which Is expected from the District
committee will grant the bill right Of way
and thus place 1t without delay in the
hands of the President for signature:

A Scotchman has invented a cannon for
which 1t is claimed that a shot may be

School Construction Methods.

In pursuance of the ''driblet" process of
securing funds for the equipment of the
District municipal departments. the Com
mlssioners have been compelled in the
past to present to Congress the estima ties
for new school buildings i'm series. First
they have sent i'm estimates for sites. II
the funds were furnished for this purpose
the next year the estimates for the build
ings to be erected on the sites would be
submitted Sometimes the construction
funds would not be forthcoming by the
next appropriation act and a year would
elapse between the two measures of pro-
vision.
In the case of the Potomac building
which has been declared unsafe for
further use by the school children. GER
tainly on the second floor and possibly on
the first floor as we'll. the process Of pro-
viding a substitute has been marked by
this two-stage method. so wasteful of
time and so demoralzing to the progress
sive development of the District. In pur-
suance of their established policy the
Commissioners. Knowing that Congress
was unwilling to give all that the District
needed in any department. asked in their
current estimates for site for new
Potomac building, but not for funds for
structure. Thus if the estimate passes
into the law it will be possible in July
next for the District government to be-
gin the work of buying the ground neces-
sary for this construction. Inasmuch as
an entire year at the least must elapse
before funds will be available for the con-
struction no haste will be displayed 1t
has happened before and it will doubt
less happen again that the construction
funds. though appropriated one year later
are actually available before the land
is purchased and the plans prepared
The troubles now experienced in the
schools. due to overcrowding. may he
traced chiefly to this lack of co-ordina-
ton
II is preposteTous that three years should
be needed for the execution Of a plan for
a new schoolhouse in this District Yet
1t is by no means uncommon for such
delay to occur. between the first recon-
mendation of the school board and the en-
trance of the pupils into the new building.
A work that should cover at the outside
twelve months is stretched over nearly
forty. 1nasmuch as this has been going
on for some years it is not surprising
that the District schools are at present in
shameful state of congestion, that
fimsy old buildings are in use. that the
pupils are subjected daily to dangerous
conditions. and that the machinery for
relieving these conditions has become so
clogged with red tape that relief is not to
be had in hurry.
1t is to be hoped that the exac. situation
regarding the condemnation Of the Poto-
mac and Mccormick buildings and the
results attending the procrastinating
methods of appropriation and expenditure
will be laid fully before Congress so that
some good may perhaps come out of the
present embarrassment in the shape Of a
change of methods.

The South's Representation.


Southern democrats are living in fool s
paradise II they think there is no serious
purpose among republican leaders to re-
duce southern representation. This is
comparatively new issue. but we have
yet to hear a word Of censure from re-
publican sources against the fourteenth
amendment plank of the Ohio platform.
And why should not republicans favor the
reduction of southern representation?
Such action would be in accord with the
history and traditions of that party. The
Constitution. according to their interpre-
tation. demands such reduction. The re-
duction of southern representation would
SO weaken and cripple the democratic
party that republican control of the gov
eminent would be assured for the next
two decades. Political expedlency alone
would support the program of the Ohio
platform and the Keifer bill

The Venezuela Botheration.
From the New York Times.

From the New York Times.
The President has very wisely deter
mined to lay the history Of our troubles
with Venezuela before Congress and the
nation without specific recommendation
1t is a history Of extreme vexation due
unfortunately. not wholly to the bad be-
havior OF Venezuela, but also TO bad be-
havfor on the part of some of the Amer
lean claimants for whom it has become
the duty OF our government to intervene
Yet apart from this phase of the question
there is ample evidence in the papers
sent to the Senate by the President that
the rights Of these claimants fully deserve
consideration: that they have not received
proper consideration from the Venezuelan
authorities. and that they are proper
matters for arbitration, which is all that
our government has at any time asked.
