GAMBLING LAW GREATLY MODI-
FLED

The last Legislature passed a bill
greatly modifying the present gambl-
ing law, as will be seen from a perusal
of both acts, published below. While
it still remains a felony for any per
son to conduct the games mentioned
for profit, there seems to be no reason
why they cannot be played for stakes
by o number of persons. While it is
not probable that under this law faro,
roulette and kindred games will be
played openly in the state, there seems
to be no legal reason why poker, whist
and other card games shall not
flourish.
Anti rambling Lay in 1909.
Section. 1. 1t shall be unlawful
for any person to deal, play or carry
on, open or conduct in any capacity
whatever, any game of faro, monte,

seven-and,a-half, twenty-one, hockey
pokey, craps, klondyke, poker, whist,
bridge-whist, five hundred, solo, frog,
or any other card game, or any
banking or percentage game played
with cards, dice, or any device, for
money, property, checks, credit or
any representative of value; or any
gambling game in which any person
keeping, conducting, managing or
permitting the same to be carried on
receives, directly or indirectly any
compensation or reward or any percent
age or share of the money or property
played for keeping, running, carrying
on or PRINTING the said game to be
carried on; or to play, maintain or
keep any slot machine played for
money or for checks or tokens redeem
able in money; or to buy, sell or deal
