Why Indeed Why should the newspapers give publicity to the Government land drawings? The Postoffice Department is prompt to punish a publisher for printing adver tisements of any other class of lotteries, and it even goes so far as to make it unlawful for a news paper to publish the names of winners in any game of chance. This is all right and proper, for the lottery is one of the most harmful forms of gambling known, The Government does right to suppress the evil, but it has no moral right to turn around and conduct the biggest lottery of all in disposing of the public land. If it is wrong for a private individual to conduct a lottery, it is a much greater wrong for the Government to engage in the same business.
