itafy's Lottery Discarded,

Albany Argus: For many years
conscientious members of the italian
parliament have tried to get passed
legislation that would abolish the
government lottery, and at last the
government has consented to do away
with this great gambling game. 1t
was a monstrous imposition on the
people Of Italy and kept thousands of
the more ignorant class in poverty.
The same conditions prevail in Cuba
today, where men who toll for meager
wages on the plantations will pawn
their shirts in order to get money
with which to buy lottery tickets. 1t
Is gratifying to learn that the con-
sciences of the Italian officials have
at last been awakened, and it Is to be
hoped that the same reform will soon
be carried out in every country where
lotteries exist.
There are stare in the heavens. but
ment is the more cOmmendable be-
cause it involves a considerable sac
ritiCC. The revenue from the govern
ment lottery which had branches all
over the kingdom, even in the small
est rural communities, was enormous.
No secret was made of the fact that
only about half the amount Of the
money taken in for the tickets was
distributed as prizes. In a single year
the sale OF tickets brought in $16,-
$4,000, and only IS, 900, 900 was dis
tributed in prizes. The cost of oper-
ating the lottery is said to have been
about 100000 a year. A few Of the
prizes were large, but generally they
We're won by welI-tO-do persons who
bought many tickets and thus ~increas-
ed their chances. Yet the poor dupes
who put their pitiful earnings into
this game never ceased to hope that
fortune would smile on them and that
for a Ira they would win a prize that
would enable them to live in luxury
without working.
For a government that calls itself
enlightened to operate a game that in
creases this passion for gambling is
the height Of inconsistency.
