DRUG BOOK
On TRIAL.

The four lawyers for the defense In
the several cases now before Judge
Whitney for breaches of the Pure Food
law through the sale of presumably
adulterated whisky sat back and
grinned yesterday while Deputy At
ing Attorney Andrade tried to show
that the copy of the U. S. Pharmaco-
poeia used by Chemist Duncan was
what it purported to be. This is one
of the things that everybody knows
but none appear TO be able to prove.
The defense wanted legal proof that
the book had not been printed in Ho-
nolulu and brought into court as a
put up job. They wanted the man who
printed it to certify that there were
no typographical errors and the man
who compiled it to prove that when he
did so he had some authority behind
him.
IF a book was produced with the
words The Holy Bible printed on it
would we know that it was the
BibIe?" asked Attorney Breckons.
NO. to satisfy the defense we would
have to bring Moses into court and
make him swear that he had written
it" retorted Mr.. Prosser.
And on about that line the argument
went on. Judge Whitney was not try
ing the whisky case; it was the Phar-
which was on trial and the
poor book had hardly a shred Of char
1cter left after the lawyers had finish
I'd insinuating as to its parentage and
ack Of character.
Judge Whitney will hear further evil
ience and argument on Friday, after
which he will decide as to the legiti-
macy of the volume with the long
