PASADENA, Nov. 1.-The Pasadena
Office OF The Herald was moved today
into the premises at So East Colorado
htreet, one door west of the former loca
tion, where a convenient office is being
fitted up, more cornmodious as we'll q:
better lighted than the old quarters.
LIBEL SUIT.
A complaint was sworn out this morn
ing by Augustus Lang, the druggist,
charging Rev. II. Elliott Ward with
criminal libel, and the papers were IS
sued from Justice Young's court at Los
Angeles and served this afternoon by
Marshal buchanan. The complaint is
based upon the following article when
appeared in last Saturdays issue OF the
little paper issued by the CHRISTIAN
church. called the Weekly Reminder, OF
which Rev. Mr.. Ward is the editor:
''If anyone thinks the temperance fight
is over they are greatly mistaken. The
music has just begun. Why is it that the
city recorder, city attorney. city council
and all the rest of the ring are so heartily
opposed to prosecuting Lang when there
is double the amount of evidence against
him that there is against the other out
laws? Can't you guess"
The complaint is founded upon two
counts, one being the accusation in the
article referred to that the complainant
is an outlaw, and the other an intima
ton ths' he has brought corrupt influ-
ence to bear upon the city offiials to pre-
vent them from prosecutingh i'm.
Another arrest which has aroused con-
siderable interest is that of DR.. W. H.
Prittie. proprietor of the Chicago Phar-
macy. who is charged with violating the
state pharmacy law by compromising and
dispensing medicine without being reg
istered pharmacist or assistant phar-
macIst, as provided in the law.
The act. eclares it to beIunlawful for
any pers" tn conduct q pharmacy or
store for dispensing or compromising
medicines unless such person be a regis
tered pharmacist. and it is made unlaw-
full for any pc son to compound or dis
pense any physician prescription unless
such person be a registered pharmacist
or registered assistant pparhamcist. The
fact further prescribes for conducting
examinations of pharmacists and assist
ant pharmacists and Issuing certificates
to them emitting them 10 conduct drug
stores. One clause OF the act contains
the provision that nothing in this act
shall apply to or interfere with the bust.
