Excerpt from Gambling Outrages: Or Improving the Breed, of Horses at the Expense of Public Morals For years the laws against gambling have been openly violated. Professional gamblers from this and other States have been permitted to go from county to county with their unlawful paraphernalia and ply their schemes of robbery, surrounded by an atmosphere filled with rumors of bribery and corruption of officials. Public sentiment has sustained the enforcement of the laws against these dishonest schemes of getting another's property for nothing in New York and Queens Counties. For years Kings County has unlawfully afforded gamblers opportunity to rob the people and has protected them from punishment. A judge from the bench as far back as June, 1884, proclaimed these violations of law in Gravesend as "flagrant, persistent, and open." Still the warning has been unheeded, the laws ever since have continued to be trampled under foot, and an appeal to the public is rendered necessary. The facts published herein are published because they are facts. It is hoped that a full, frank, and faithful history of these outrages may promote a public sentiment strong enough to secure the rigid enforcement of laws as they now exist, and defeat the infamous attempt to repeal them in the interest of professional gamblers. Does the Empire State belong to gamblers? Have the people no self-respect left? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
