[ CXASlXOCt 0HX10X.J On the 19th day ot February, A. D. 1881, article* of incorporation of the "Ma Tad* Benevolent Aaeoclation" war* filed in the offloe ol tbs County Clerk of Btorey oounty. The object of the corporation being " to Mtabliab and carry on the buelnee* of providing for and giving pub lic entertainment*, in the Btete of Nevada, of a nautical and aclentiflo character, to cell ticket* of admlealon to *ucb entertain menu, and to parohaM, hold and dla tribute among the holder! of inch ticket* peraonal property, real ettate, oboee* in action and other valuable thing*, upon inch term* and oonditiout and in auch manner and at tucb timet a* may be de termined by a Board of Mauagera to be ■elected for that purpoaa by the Board of Truttee* of thl* company." It ia pro vided that to much of the prooeadt of *ald entertainment* "a* may be deemed proper by the Board of Tratteee, but not le*t than $40,000, from each entertainment, are to be plaoed in the Bute TreJtory of the Btete of Nevada to be uted only for mob charitable and benevolentpurpuaee u may be determined by the Legialature of the Btete of Nevada." - - - - • •• a •> ■ . TO© " AC I IU AIU IUD itvfMi* i/vuwvivu. Association lo aiding la providing moans for the csre and maintenance of th# in sane of Nevada, and for other chariubie porpoaca" (approved March 9, 11*81), de clarea that "It siiall b« lawful for the Ne vada Benevolent Association of the Bute of Nevada to give not eaoeeding five publio entertainments or oonoerts; to sell uckete of admiaaion to the same; to aUtribnte among the holdera of snob tiokets personal pioperty, real esute, things in action, de mauds or other valuables, and to regulate the distribution of all inob property or gif ta by r»We or other schemes of like char acter.'7 (8tat. 1881, ltttl, Bee. 1.) ' The Information tiled by the Attorney Oeneral allegea that respundeuU, as Trus Iks of said association, are, without war rant of law, "advertising, printing, circulating and telling tickets for public •ntertalumants * * and that they " bale their rights to advertiM, priut, cir culate and aell tickets for the said publio exhibitions or enturtainmeuts, and to pur chase, use, hold and distribute amuugst the holders of such tickets personal pro perty, real tstate, chose* iu action and other valuable thing*," npon the Aot o! the Legislature above referred to. The faota aet forth in the information are admitted by reepondeuts to be true. Are the acts of respondents without war rant of law ? Ia the Act of the Legislature, approved March 9, 1881, constitutional? First—Is the scheme or enterprise In wbich the " Nevada Benevolent Associa tion " ia engaged a lottery ? This (juestlon is answered in the affirma tive by tne decision of this Court lu tx parti Blancbard. 9 Nev., 104. Is that de cision Ourrvct ? It ceruinly i*. Itiasus laired by every deefsiou that haa been rendered by the variona courts in the United Ulates upon this question. Notwithstanding this fact, we are now earnestly asked to declare that the musical enteruiument which the Nevada Beuevo lout Association propose* to gtve la not a lottery. Why not? What ia a lottery? £v«ry echeme for the distribution of prizes by chanoe is a lottery. (Uoveruor's uf tne Almshouse of New York vs. Americau Art Uniou, 7 N.

We are of opinion that tbe facta ttated In the article* of incorporation, in the itatutei, and in the Information, tbow that the tcbeme It oue whereby tbe Legidature of thia Bute, in cnniideratlon of the *um of Smouo, to be placed la the State Trwuury, to the credit of the " Intane and Charitable Fond," attempted to authorise the managera of the " Nevada Benevolent Aaaooiation " to enrioh their own pockete, at tbe expeote of the people of thlt and other Statet. by holding oat promltet of tbe great and eudden gain* that might be acquired by the ticket bolder*; that golden price* wonld be " the lure to in cite the crednlout and nn*a*pectlng into thl* tcbeme." In tbe light of all tbe facta that have been preeented it would b* abturd to My that the manager* of tbi* tcbeme are lim ply prompted by deed* of charity and pur* benevolence. •••••••• In the faoe and teeth of the decldom, which w* bav* referred to, we cinnot lay that tbe tcbeme propoeed by the "Ne vada Benevolent Aaaooiation" i* not a lottery. It ha* th* e**entlal clement* and attri bute* of a lottery; the diatribution of prize* by cbanoe. It la a lottery within the defin ition given In the dlctionariee; it la a lot tery acoordlng to the ordinary acceptation of that word; It It a lottery within tbe term* ipeclfitd by tbe Legislator* of tbi* State In the "Act to prohibit lotteriea" [But, 1878,1881; It it a lottery within the meaning of that word aa a ted in th* Con stitution.

Nothing upon wbich toy ru*l or substantial argument cm be bawd. " No lottery (ball bo authorized bv this State, nor (ball the iale of lottery ticket* be allowed." [Const., Art., IV. See. 94.) Tbe Act In queetion attempts to author 1m a lottery, and to allow tbe aale of lot tery ticket* In tbl* State In dlreot viola tion of tbe plain latter and cpirit of tbl* provision of tbe Conitltntion. It would be a perversion of tbe language of tbe Con stltntion to *ay that tbe Aet la valid. Rrepoudenla, however, oontend tbat tbe Conitltntion "doe* not prohibit private lotteriee, and waa by Ita framera intended only to prevent tbe Legislatare from in volving the State in a ayitem of publio lottcrie* a* a mean* of railing money for the tervice of the State," or, in other word*, that tbli coditltntional provulon »m only intended aa a limitation of power to prevent the State, ti a State, from en gaging in publio lotterlM for the pnrpoee of raiting mean* for tbe general revenue of tbe Slate. Henoe they claim that the Bute has the right to authorise private parties to oondnei and oarry on a lottery of the oharaoter specified in the informa tion. in support oi una potiuou iuot mW w the debate* of the Constitutional Conv*n tioo Id California upon the adoption of a proTiilon In the Confutation of that State identical witb our*. It li not claimed that thee* debate* ban the weight of a Judicial decision, bat that It i* proper to examine them in caae of donbt a* to the intention of the framera of the Oonitltu tion. The remark! of the different mem ber! ihed bat little light apon the real qneetion at iaaue. They are aa mnoh in favor of the position taken by the Attorney General aa tnejr are In faror of the respon dents. The debate* ahoir tbat the Confu tation of New York wa* referred to in dUcusting the provision that waa adopted in California. Mr. Halleok, who waa in favor of the adoption of the lottery pro vision, lu the coarse of hi* argument, *ald : •• Io nearly all tbe new ConeUtn tlon* you will And thl* olaaa*. It waa not contained in tbe old ConaUtaUon, but in most cam, where they bare been amrndod, It baa been introdooed. In tbe old ConatltaUon of New York, to whlob reference baa been made in tbe oourie of debate, no prohibition waa Inaerted. Many gentlemeu preaent would remember ttie famoua oaae of Yatee and Mi-Intyre "bleb Involved not ooly individuals of tbe Stale in rula, bat waa the o:oaiion of a* rioui embarraaament to the State Govern ment itself. Tbe roaalt to clearly estab lished the evil* of tbe lottery iy*tem tbat the Convention of New York, in 1818, in* serted a clauie in the very lint article of the new Confutation |*ee Section 101 prohibiting lotterie* and tho aal* of lot tery tickets. It sppeared to blm • • • that this probibl lion waa one of tbe beat that could be Inserted in tbe artlole limit ing tbe powers of tbe Leglalatnre." Tbe language of the loth Section of Ar ticle X of tbe Confutation of 18(6, refer red to by Mr. Halleck la aa followa : "Nor ■hall any lottery hereafter be authorised or any aaleof lottery tickets allowed with in tbla Bute." In tbe Oovernors of tb* Almtbout* va. American Art Union, aapra, it wa* con tended bj Cbarlea U'Connor, counsel for the Art Union, ** it 1* here, tbat tbe Con stitution was only intended to prevent tbe mifcblevoat practice of raising a revenue by publio lotteriea, which bad been for many years in fall vigor both in England aud In tbia country, and tbat tbe problbl tlona of the Conailtatlou wsreonly directed against thia particular evil. He referred to the fact, as do coanael hero, tbat "from 1709 to 18il publio lotteriea were author ized at every tvisloo of Parliament." Ho also referred to tbe debalee of tbe Consti tutional Convention of 1821, for tbe pur pose of showing that " public lotteriea for pecuniary prise* aa a meana of raising revenue were alon* within the contempla tion of tbat body." The Constitution of 1831 la Id theae words: "No lottery ahall hereafter bo authorised In tbia State, and the Leglf. lature ahall paaa lawa to prevent th* aale of all lottery tickets wltlnn this State except in lotteriea already provided for by law." The Court of Appeala in referring to tbla Constitution, which it declared to be sub stantially tbe sam* aa the Constitutioo of 1840, aald: "This prohibition Is general. It must be held to embrace all lotteriea, unleaa there be tome very clever aod aatla factory reasoo for nDderttaodiog it Id a more limited sense. It wa urged upon the argument tbat public lotteriea for pe cuDiary prises as a meana of raising rev enue were alon* within the contemplation of the framera of tbe Cooitltuiion. But lotterie* have never been created within thl* State for tb* purpoto of ganeral rev foae, and there I* therefore no ground for believing tbat tbe problblUon waa In tended to be limited to lotterie* for that object. Tbla would have been restraining a mischief which did not exist, and toler •ting that wbloh did. Lotteriea had b**n authorised by the Legislature for tbe bene fit of oollege*, for the making of roads, for the building of briilgra. for tbe improve ment of ferrlea, for tbe erection of hoe plialt, and for varlout other purposes equally commendable and beneficial. All Jhe** were clearly wltbin tho problblUon. The prohibition was not aimed at tb* ob> Jeots for which lotterie* bad be*o author l*d, hut at tbat particular mode of accom plishing auch objeota. It was founded on tbe moral principle tbat *vil abould not be dooe tbat good might follow, aod upoo tbe more cotfent practical reaeon tbat th* evil consequent on tbla perniciooa kind of gambling greatly overbalanced in tbe fggregato any good likely to reialt from It. The promotion of the fine art* 1* un doubtedly a commendable object, bat the prohibition oontalna no exception In ita favor on tbat ground. • • • • • The Intention of tb* f ram are of tb* Con ■tltuUon undoubtedly w<* to forbid tb* fotare granting of any such lotteries as bad at any time previonely been author ised by law, and by requiring tb* Legls lature to paaa lawa to prevent tbe aale of all lottery tlcketa. to put an end to all such distributlona of money or gooda by lot or chance aa had theretofore been for bidden by atatute under tbe name of private lotterie*." The argument tbat tbe word* " by tbl* State" were Inserted for the pnrpoee of preventing tho Legislature from authorls log publio lotteriea a* a meana of ralalng revenue, and tbat the provision waa not intended to prevent tb* Legislator* from authorising private lotterie*, 1* wholly un tenable. No authority baa been produo«d ■- —j — — — .l-4_l .k.t none cm b« found. Id conitruing this profiiiou of the Con etitution tho lut tvntence it m important u the flrat. If tbo framrra of the Ccnatitution bad Intended by tbo nie of tbe wordi: " No lottery ■hall be authorised by tbla State," to only limit the legitlative power to pub llo lotterlea, condacted and managed aolely by tho Bute for the purpoee of ratting revenue, tbey would not have need tbe language they did lu the oonolndlng ten tcnce, " Nor ihall tbe aalo of lottery tick* eta bo allowed." Tbeee worde clefcrly abow that it waa not Intended that any lottery ibonld be authorized by thia State for any porpoae. Tbe worda " by this State," a* naed in onr Conitltutlon, and the worda " in thia Bute," "or within tbla State."aa need in tbe Conititntlona of New York, have virtually tbe aame meaning. " No lotury aball be autboriaed by thia State, nor aball the aale of lotury tieketa be allowed." Tbia language appllea to all lotterlee, whether pablio or private. To lotterlea conducted by the State; by the obureh; a private individuate ; by benevolent and aritable aaeociatloni, and by corpora Hone. No lottery of any kind can be author lied by tbe Legialatnre nnder tbe preeent Cooitltotion. •••••••• We again repeat what, It eeetni to tu, tnmt be evident to every anblaaed and Im partial mind, that the language of the conatitutional provlalon ia too plain for argument. That nnder It tbe Legislature sannot antborUe any lottery In tbia State, and that tbe Aet approved Karob 9,1M1, la anil and void. We tr* oonaoiou of th« faet ttet it faa tmeeeeeeary tesdd anytkhif to *er*w» ing of thU Court In <c parti Blancbard. which It, of ltaelf. absolutely conclusive upon both of the polou we have discussed. Bat it hu been attempted, by • desirs upon oor pert, to ibow that do authority oooId be fonnd to any of the adjudicated cum in the United Htatei to matain the poeition contended for by rsspondente: and that no argument baa been advanoed by reapondente, npon either of tbeee polnte, that haa not heretofore been de cided adversely to tbem by the ConrW of other Btatee, where tbo oonatitntionai proflaiona are anbttantially tbo tame aa onr own. It la proper to add that we bare arrived at the conclusion stated without consider ing the qnration of the morality, or im morality of thia partioular eohtme. It makee no differenoe whether it was set on foot purely for the purpose of raising rev enue for the benefit of the " Inaano and Charitable Fund" of this Bute, or whether it belonged to that elass of lotteries that are made np of pecuniary prizes and min ister to the love of gain ; whoee schemes address themselves In the grnesest and most revolting form directly to that sordid pasalon, and to no other sentiment; where jbe managsra reoelve a pecuniary profit and enlist " * oorps of active seducers to draw the weak and nnwary into the pur chase of tloksts " by extensive advertise ments containing brilliant pictures of the favorable chanoes to acquire sadden wealth. It may D0 aamutea tor wo purpura u> this decision, m WM srgued by respon dents' counsel, that the people of thla Bute an essentially a gambling people, reedy et all tinea to take the dupe rate obanoea which lotteries afford, ana tbat no in Jnrlons affects apon tbe morals of lbs peo ple would reenlt If tbls gams of chinos wm allowed to prooeed. This qaestion Is one that most be con sldsred as aettlsd by tbe adoption of tbe oonatltntlonal provision [ex parts Darling, recently decided.) In tbe Art Onion oaae, to which ws bare frequently referred, it wm claimed tbat tbe snterpriM wm really of a meritorious obaraoter, and tbat it differed, in this re spect, from the lotteries wbsre tbe mans agers were to reoeiTS tbe linn's share of the profits. Tbe Conrt, in answer to this argument, said: "Ifno lotteriM bad sxlited excepting snob m is contalnsd in ths Art Union sohsms, it Is not probahls tbat tbey wonld have been forbidden by tbo Constitution or by law. Its mischiefs are oertainly not so apparent M if its prises were to be paid in money, or u it would be if framed for tbe porpoMof enticing thenecsMitous and improvident into its batards. But this csss cannot bs decided acoording to ths Tisws ws maysntsrtainof tbe probable good or aril consequent npon tbe execu tion of tbe scheme. Ths Constitution took away ths powsr of determining whstbsr this or any other lottery wm of good or evil tendency, snd oertainly did not intend to oonfer that power on the Judioial tribunals. If it wera to bs ad mitted tbat the scbsms is sntirely barm leM in iu coneequencee, It would form no ground for msking It by Judicial oon strnction an exoeption to the general and abeolute constitutional prohibition." Courts cannot maks any distinction, in this respect, m to tbs nature of tbo trana action or ths character of persons engaged in it. It Is tbsir bounden dnty to declare tbs law. " Tbs law knowa no person ; it is not made for tbo individual man, but for msn. As tbs dsw of bearen falls, eo it beare alike npon tbe just and unjust." (Bute vs. Pieroe, 8 Nev., 304.] It smiles and frowns upon all alike. It makes uu distinctions. ttubmlMion to its authority is iucumbent npon ail. Third—It is unnecessary to disenss any of tbo other points suggested by respon dents' cooooil. We will not presume, in advance, tbat respondents inteud to violate tbo law. rrom tbe views already expressed it is sppareut tbat it wonld make no difference whether respondent* base their right to act in the premises nnder tbe srtioles of incorpurstion or under the provisions oi tbe Act of tbe Legislature. Iu either event their Acts would be without warrant of law. Tbe Judgment of tbia Court ia tbat the respondents have no right, liberty, or franchise, by virtue of any law, to adver tise, print, circulate or eell any Ucketa In tbe schtms or enterprise of tbs " Nevada Benevolent Aaeoclauon" within this State, or to do any of tbe acts specified in tbe statute, "to aid tbs Nevada Benevolent Associstion," spproved March 9, 1881 (Stat.. 1881. 168J; and tbat tbe costs of this proceeding be taxed against them.
