WHY NOT A BETTING TAX. “The needs cf the country call for every, effort to he made to reduce the betting now taking place, and nothing should be done which would serve to establish the evil more firmly. But what substance in fact is there in t e pathetic belief that the practice of betting would be encouraged or approved bv State regulation? Its prevalence could hardly be more ostentatious than it is to-day—not only in the raucous clamour of the ring and the pleasant agents,’ bub on the pavement and m the litter of torn slips at the. factory gate.”—“The Times.”
