During the years 1910 20 1920 the

NEW GAMBLING LAW SUGGESTED

The laws of Texas should be changed to
read about this way: Anyone found guilty of
gambling shall one week in the county jail for
first offense. weeks for the second offense
month Of the third and year for the fourth. and
he shall pay his own board bill while in jail and his
name shall be posted in four Of the conspicu-
place in the city, and also in the local paper
three issues and the gambler shall pay for same at
the regular advertising rates. And there shall be no
suspended sentences. and no continued trials This
would stop the practice instantly and for good
measure those who play cards in homes for the so

ENFORCE LAW AND ORDER


There is not a citizen Of the
state of Texas who gives the mat
ter a moments thought who will
not agree that the recent orgy Of
lynching and the so-called race riots
which have flared up here and
there have done the reputation Of
this great state an injury which il
ought not 10 be called upon TO suf-
fer. Worse than that, they have
done the state itself an injury. for
they have promoted a breakdown
in respect for law and in public
order that can have but one result
II carried 90 It's logical conclusion.
Il Is time for thinking men 20 act
and al men 20 think.
The unfortunate reaction TO most
denunciations Of such breaches Of
law and order il that unthinking
persons consider them attempts 20
Condone the crimes for which men
are lynched. and 10 exalt those not
worldly Of exaltation. That Is far
from the spirit and intent Of this
writing. The Record believes that
punishment, swift and sure, should
follow all crimes and public inter-
ests and welfare demands that Il be
particularly swift and sure and an
example 10 others IN the case Of
such revolving crimes as that for
which lynching Is usually melted
out.
But, as the years go by and con-
ditiOns do not seem 10 improve, the
thought is borne home with IN
creasing force that we have not
found the cure FOR atrocious crime
nor for illegal punishment because
we have not reached the cause. And
that cause lies in the faulty admin
istration Of justice. II justice was
swift and sure the excuse for lynch
ing would pass out Of existence and
public sentiment would undoubtedly
back the legal and just method Of
UNFOLDING the law and furnishing its
assailants.
Texas Is confronted with a sit
uatiOn that demands careful thought
and appropriate and effective ac-
ton. Every individual who believes
that the maintenance Of law and
order is essential to the welfare Of
the state, as well as TO the safety
Of the individuals who make up
the state should make himself
heard for the prompt, just and eff
fective administration Of law and
the suppression Of lawlessness. The
organizations which have law and
order as their aim should focus
public opinion so that we may have
an effective government of the
people.

that much more to the responsibility Of the fire de-
pariment of this city Both OF these are inadequate

utilities is a handicap to the town We are of the
opinion that Lubbock should at once take steps

Marbles yes, marbles. those little round things

have played tall our thumb nail was to the quick

the boys all the country just at this time and
is a good game We admire boy that is good
marble payer-we enjoy seeing him take shot at
his opponent and hit him kerplunk and send him
winding far away from the cherished goal There
is a science in it. and nice socable game is
worth while and the parents Of boys should encour
age marble playing but there is feature OF it
that must be closely watched and that is the gamb
ling part Of it, Keeps for instance This is
just as bad as a poker game. and the young Ameri-
cans are liable to fall into this habit if they are
not told OF the evils of it. We understand that
something like dozen boys have been arrested al
ready charged with playing keeps and Will have
to appear before the grand jury some other
august body and give account for this vio-
lation of the law as il is a violation of the gamb-
ling laws and there is probability of Others get
ting into the trap. If they are not told about
it, and given to understand that is is wrong.
These little fellows we are confident, innocent
offenders and merely need the instructions OF
their parents or guardians which they entitled
to- Many people never talk to their children of
the evil of things and they have to learn OF their
wrong dongs by actual experience which is some
times not only disgraceful but disastrous and the
same might have been averted had the youngsters
been given so parental advice and counsel

we will admit that we had not been over any of
his roads if they good. We hear much com
plant about the roads. and the condition Of the
highways in this county is attracting much atten-
ton OF the tourists. A Lubbock man who was
making his way back to Lubbock from the South
ern part of the State said to the Avalanche man:
Il boosted Lubbock all | could to the tourists
wherever ! saw them Some were coming and
going. and found that Lubbock road
conditions were advertised clear to the coast as
being too bad to make a very favorable impress
sion on anyone and some Of them said they would
never go by the way Of Lubbock again until the
highways through the county fixed. Lubbock
as a town will lose much by the condition of the
roads. and the county whole will suffer from

HARRIS PLEASED
WITH ELECTION
Result Means Reputation Of
Stand-Pat Republicans
He Says

ATLANTA, Ca, Nov 9.-Express-
ing deep qualification at the appar-
ent victory Of the Democratic party
in the elections of Tuesday and de
claring that this result means a re
pudiation Of the Harding administra,
ton and shows 'that the country IS
not going TO be fooled by empty
promises made only to obtain votes,
United States Senator William J.
Harris issued a statement, which in
part, follows:
81 am delighted with the cleo
ton news from all parts Of the Unit
ed States. The result can mean moth
ing but a reputation of the stand
pat Republican party, led by Hard
ing and others, that had thought only
of serving big interests which con
tribute campaign expenses at election
time, and has sought through the pas
sage of the tariff bill and other legis-
Iative favors, to get big dividends IN
votes.
''The results show that the people
are net going to be fooled by the
empty promise3 Of the Republican
party, made only to get votes and
Immediately forgotten.
There has never been an cdminis-
tration that mas mad such unlimited
possibilities for accomplishment as
did the Harding administration, aud
there has never been an administra-
ton that did so little to meet press
ing conditions. There was never Il
congress that failed so completely to
do anything.
Republicans have taken advant-
age of postwar confusion, dissatiS,
faction and unrest in this country and
throughout the world, have had no
constructive program, and have blam-
ed their inaction on eX-President VIII
son, citing their tremendous majority
of 100000 in the elections two
years ago as ample reason for doing
nothing"
