J]®[ FITE IS AFTER HEN CARO PLAYERS ■Steines 18c Eras 8 Jury to Jlioroughiy Investigate , Cant Parties AND RETURN IIJE BILLS Say £ Those Who Play for Dish Are as Guilty of Gambling as the Negro Who is F\ed for Shooting Crap. \ Cprtersvilld, Ga., Jan. 15.—Judge A. W. Fite threw a bombshell into the ranks of the players of euchre, whist and other games in which prizes ara offered yesterday, when he charged the grand jury on the crime of gamb ling, and the practice of playing so cial game- for prizes. The charge to the grand jury came shortly after the opening of Bartow superior court. When Judge Fite had rear bed that part of his charge that related to gambling, a grand juror arose and a ktd for instructions or information in regard to the question of social card playing for prizes and the court replied: ‘'AH society gambling is gam!;.ling, and to my uiiud a man that gambles in a parlor is ju t as guilty as the negro that shoots craps, t said that once in Dalton in a ca e that is now pending before the su preme court and the newspapers had me saying 'a man that played euchre in a parlor was no better than a ne gro.’ Now I did not eay that but 1 did say that anyone who [days a same of chance for a ziuiyp, be it mon ey or a chafing dish, is technically as. guilty as Lha negro teat plays aiaps. The case in Dalton that 1 mentioned lust now is still in the su preme court, but it ought to be set tled .for the women would hardly con tinue to play card; for prizes if tho supreme court should decide that it was unlawful and if the court should decide that it was not umawful and then it would do nobody barm and the case ought to be settled. I de sire you gentlemen to look into the question of social gambling closely. VTou have in your power to require anyone lu 'the town or county tio come before you and test.,y against anyone else, and you can pot all the evidence you need. I hav_• brought this matter before several grand juries, but they have either not had tho backbone, or the witnesses lack ed the veracity to get it before the coust."
