DECISION RESERVED.
Excise Board Hears Statements on APP
nlication for License.

At the request of the District excise
board, William t. Harvey, who has ap-
Tiled for renewal of his bar room Incense
at ODD and streets northwest, appeared
before the board this morning to answer
questions as to the manner in which he
has conducted his liquor establishment in
the past Mr. Harvey was represented by
Frank Madigau, and Attorney a. f. Shoe
maker appeared for the Anti-Saloon
League. =.
The excise board held up the application
of Mr.. Harvey for license, owing to pro-
tests against the renewal made by resi-
dents in the vicinity. At a recent hearing
on the case before the board, it was claim
ed that the bar room is within 800 feet Of
the Grant public school. 1t was also al
legged at the Hearing that the place is not
conducted in an orderly manner.
The applicant showed that he has con-
Quoted a bar room at 22d and G streets for
many years prieH-t to the location of the
school in the neighborhood. He also pro-
duced witnesses who testified that his place
was not disorderly establishment.
The excise boafdcwill reserve its decision
In the case until later.

Mr.. Hafelfnger, and the quotation from
the poison section of the bill now before
Congress. There has lately been put in
my hands copy of the Druggists Circular
and Chemical Gazette of New York for
January, which contains strong article
on the District of Columbia pharmacy bill
now pending In Congress. May 1 quote
few comments from this expert authority?
while there some minor features
of this bill that may Slightly conflict with
the personal interests of a few pharmacists,
no candid man can deny that, as a whole,
1t Is constructed on the best principles.
Aside from local considerations on the
merits of which we are not prepared TO
pass an opinion, it is certainly the best
constructed pharmacy bill that it has ever
been our good fortune to read. AS a model
for the different state legislatures to fol-
low the purely pharmaceutical part of it
Is exceptionally good. Its provisions safe
guard the rights of the public of physi-
clans, of dentists, of general merchants,
and of pharmacists as no existing law at
tempts to do. Even homeopathic and veteri-
narians are duly cared for and every in
volved interest properly protected.
ut is quite evident on it's face that this
bill is the outgrowth Of knowledge and
experience and not the product of a few
hours thought ON the part of the New
Hampshire senator who introduced 1t, even
If he Is a medical man. The language or
its chief and most important parts seemed
strangely familiar to us as we read 1t
thorugh. and on looking the matter up we
found that it was a composite of Prof.
BealS model pharmacy law and of his later
product, the model anti-narcotic law. No
wonder, then, that it Is so excellent and that
1t covers the ground in so thorough man
ner. OF course 1t is changed In places to
suit the conditions of the District of Co
lumbia, but the main features have been
introduced in the exact words of Prof.
Beal. If those pushing this bill succeed in
getting 1t passed they will, indirectly, ac-
complish good piece Of work for the
whole United States. AS everybody knows,
the precendents established by federal leg
islation are generally followed by the legis-
lative bodies of the various states, where
similar subjects have to be dealth with"
After some further comments with regard
to the local notifications, the writer refers
to the poison sections and shows that. II
anything they have been drawn too mildly.
He says:
"Why other derivations of morphine are
not mentioned it would be difficult to mag
inc unless they did not occur to those hav-
ing the bill in charge. We would suggest
rivatives their salts, or preparations con-
tanning them or their salts What is there
to hinder habitues getting peronfne or do

heroin, IL these are not included in the
list?
1--WE note, too, In this connection that
while poisonous drugs are enumerated.
there Is no mention of the more dangerous
solid extracts of these drugs, nor of their
tinctures and fluid extracts. Still another
omission is that OF the spirits or essences of
the poisonous essential oils. We hope that
