A BLOW AT LOTTERIES.
HE SUPREME COURT of the United States hae just settled the
question: “Has Congress the power to prohibit the sending of lottery
tickets from one State to another by any other means than the
mail?” Ia two cases before the court the copstitationality of the Act of Oongress of 1895, prohibiting the sending of lottery tickets out of one State
into another by express, was challenged. The contention of counsel for the
defense was that the inhibition is not « Federal function and is not one of the
powers delegated in the Constitution by the States; that the eending of the
lottery tickets or policy slips is not an act of interstate commerce; that the
suppression of lotteries belongs exclusively to the police power of the several
States.
The Supreme Court held, Justice Harlan delivering the opinion, that
_ transmitting lottery tickets from one State to another as matter of traffic is an
act of interstate commerce, and that the Act of Congress prohibiting the car well known bymn
rying of such articles is withia the regulative powers of the Federal Government; therefore, Congress may take cognizance of the traffic as an interstate
commerce act, and it is not compelled to tolerate itin order to regulate it.
The Supreme Court holds that Congress, for the protection of the people
“ef all the States, under the power of the Interstate Commerce Act, may dev
means not probibited by the Conetinties, to drive the traiie out from among
the States.
‘The decision is . a majority one, ‘four of the Justices dissenting on ‘the
ground that the holding of the majority is inconsistent ‘with the views of
the framers of the Constitution. This decision interposes the most powerful
obeck that has yet been applied to the traffic in lottery tickets. They have
long been exclpded from the mails, and the transmission of them in any
other way from one State to another is now held to be a violation of the law
subjecting the trafficker to punishment ander the Federal law.
It is thus developed that the United States is far in advance of the States
in this matter of crushing the lotteries, It hag gone now tothe full extent of
its power and thus ‘indfeated to the States that they, too, may suppress the
lottery evil, if they choose to exert their local police power, supplementary to
the action of Congress, or initiate and originate means for its ‘suppression.
But so far as Oaliforuia is concerned, it is quite improbable that anything
will be done to stamp out the business which the Constitution aud the statates
~ denotes as Criminal, and both of which demand its suppression. In thie
State it is as directly against the statutes to advertise lotteries as it is to do
upjastifiable killing of human beings. No sort of pettifogging can moeke it
appear that the methods employed here are not those of plain, highly paid for,
unconcealed advertising. The leading daily papers of San Francisco, which
pose as moralists and prate daily and loudly npon the street corners about
enforcement of the lawe and the accomplishing of reforms, are defiant violaters of the lew of the Constitation and of the statue book. Bat the hand
of the law is absolutely paralyzed in the matter of compelling obedience to
it from these newepapers.

the jury also disagreed, and forthat
reason he did not think it possible to
secure a coviction.
Before granting the dismissal Judge
Nilon took oocasion to make a few remarks in which he said that he did
victed, and that it would be a very
heavy experse to the county to try
the case again. He thereupon granted ‘the motion for dismissal,
