| Counsel for Robert n. Harper. the first
man TO be convicted for violating the
pure food and drug laws of the United
States. were heard in the Police Court
yesterday by Judge Kimball. The ar
guments were not completed 1t is ex-
pected both sides viii present their cases
to-day. Then Judge Kimball will either
grant new trial. or. refusing to reverse
his decision. will sentence Mr.. Harper
Benjamin s. Minor, of the firm of Berry
& Minor. in arguing for a new trial, as
sion of testimony He said the testimony
of DR.. Giazebrook should not have been
admitted, baslng this statement on the
recent ruling of the District Court of Ap-
peals that a physician has no right TO
repeat anything said to him in cofidence.
or disclose what has been told him by a
patient.
DIR. GIaEebroOk's Testimony.
DR.. GIazebrook, it was argued, had
stated at the trial that one of his pa
tients, a woman, had informed him that
she took Dr. Harper's Brain Food" or
"Curforhedake."
Mr. Minor, in arguing against the ad-
instability Of Dr Glazebrooks testimony,
said the same point was involved in the
Molineux murder case, and had been de-
cided as he was arguing.
Asserting that the court erred in ad-
mitting Dr. Glazebrook' confidential tes-
timony, Mr.. Minor said il should be ad-
mitted or given reliance because it was
only hearsay He then discussed the eff
fects Of the testimony Of Drs. Glazebrook,
Ruffin. Hunt. and Adams. and said that
considerable Of their testimony should be
declared inadmissible.
Judge Kimball in his reply TO counsel
for Mr.. Harper, said he did not agree
with the defense in their Interpretation OF
inadmissibie evidence. He said the cases
cited by the defense were not analogous
with the Harper affair, because DR.. Glaze
brook was not allowed 20 tell what the
effects of the drug were, but merely what
his patient had told him.
Had not the patient told DR.. Glaze
brook what she had been taking, he would
not have known what TO prescribe" said
Judge KimbalL He said that he did not
believe the exceptions were well taken.
Prayers for the Defense.
Attorney c. c. Tucker offered prayers
for the defense. and argued why certain
Of the prayers for the government should
be stricken out.
To-day the concluding arguments will
be presented by the government and the
defense. District Attorney Baker will
make the final argument At the conclu-
sion Of the arguments Judge Kimball will
announce his decision.

WILLIAM TAFT's ABILITY.

Mr.. Taft is a very great man. A fine scholar, a great lawyer. his
order ot mind is that OF a trained Judge; his executive ability has been
tested in many ways and has been equal to every occasion, say, Judge
GOODWIN, IN Goodwins Weekts He brought order aud peace &c the
philippines; he brought order and effective work at Panama: he pre-
serted the remedy for Cuba and below his splendid abilities he is ono

arperiors. II elected President he will take the office IS a trust; he will
not run it BY impulse or by inspiration. His aim will be to do the best

strong, great thorough American If elected President he viii be nearer
like Abraham Lincoln than any man since his day, although he has
never been subjected to the hard discipline that Lincoln was, but he has
had varied and extensive experience. He knows how to handle men. He
is a Just man in all his instincts, and rich and poor alike get their de-
serts from him, He is as kindly and wise as was Lincoln; he Is as brave
as was Lincoln; he has his whole country at heart IS much as ever Lin

never failed, II any one thinks he will not be President. If elected l..

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
MIR. BRYAN EDITORIAI1zEs.

William Jennings Bryans disappearing editorial on the Republican
s}ahorm IS certainly long, and it may be wide. but there is really grounl
Tor the conclusion that 1t is not very deep. 1t is confined mostly to
bubbles. 1t is the sort of pin1ticking that the person without real
ground for faut-hndIng, yet a feeling that he must find il, is won't to
indulge in, says the Oakland Tribune.
Referring to tho expression that through the President the highest
aspirations Of the American people have found a voice" Mr.. Bryan
points out how tMs reflects on previous Republican Presidents. Accord
ing to his way OF looking at it, the sentence, American manhood has
been lifted to a noble sense of duty and obligation" implies an admis-
sion that up to this time American manhood has not been elevated
through any Of the policies and achievements of the Republican party.
bryan contention:
The President must resent the fact that the platform expresses no
gratitude to the Democratic members and Senators for supporting him
when the Republicans deserted him." Here is another that Is simply
unanswerable: "How does the President like being bracketed with Re
publican Senators and members of Congress in this. indiscrminate
oyaise?"
Mr.. Bryan goes o n to seriously observe that not only does the
lit up American manhood to a noble sense OF duty and obligation. but
il actually condemns the AHbuster which the Democratic minority insti-
,nted," etc. $3.50,
There is no foOtnote or other Sign suggesting that Mr.. Bryan is
attempting a joke O even sarcasm in such charges; apparently his edi-
tcrial is intended al a serious and sweeping expose Of Republican chi
cane. Aa
The currency bill is damned beyond recovery by the statement THAI
through the influence OF a few inanciers" it was rushed through IN
the closing hours. THE trust plank must prove a disappointment b.
cause there is NO demand for a rigid enforcement of the law"
The plank favonng legislation to prevent oyerissue OF stocks AMI
bonds is good, but there is something the matter with it because the
convention sat down" on La Folettes amendment in connection there.
with. which would have made it better.
The resolution denouncing the acknowledgements Of the negro Mr..
Bryan regards a pure buncombe, because the party would like to have
the negro vote. 1t is, of course, inferred that for genuine political sym
pathy the negro must go to the Bryan party.
This diatribe is the mental output OF a man who appeals to the ~
tefigent American people to elect him their President because of his po-
litcal wisdom and dignihed statesmaniiko qualities.

BIG SUM PAID FOR
RAWHIDE MINES

Art keenan, came in from Rawhide
Sunday. He says that Rawhide Is
the greatest camp that he has ever
seen, and reports a big deal for prop
erty on Balloon Hill. The price paid
for the property is in the neighbor-
hood Of 5000, 900, which was paid for
by no less a person than Samuel
Newhouse, the millionaire mining
magnate who a few short weeks ago
paid a visit to the camp. Mr.. keenan,
says that it vas underwood that Mr..
Newhouse had interested English
capital in the enterprise. Tho wate-
works are being speeded to compile
ton, and work on the railway is b.
ing pushed with yigor. While the
failure of the banks caused some IL
tie financial stringency, yet people
seem to believe that everything viii
be shortly Strengthened out. From o
mining standpoint Mr.. keenan, be-
lieves there is no camp that can com
pare with that of Rawhide. He will
return in a few days.
