Wade has handed down an opinion
UNFOLDING the constitutionality Of the
Harrison drug act.
Judge Wade overruled a motion TO
set aside the verdict in the arrest of
Judgment and quash the indictment
against DR.. Samuel Miller, prominent
East Des Moines physician. who was
convicted In federal court on a
charge Of selling morphine to dope
fiend"
DR.. Miller is liable to five year
sentence In the penitentiary He was
indicted November "a, 1915. He
claimed he sold the dope" In q pro-
fessional capacity to effect cure.
The doctors attorneys, in present
ing their motion, maintained that the
federal government had no authority
to restrict or regulate a physician in
Iowa in the practice of his profession,
this being the province of the state
legislature. 1t is the first time this
question has been raised as applicable
to the Harrison drug act.
Dr. Mtller's counsel further main
tanned that the act violates the tenth
amendment to the federal constitution
in that congress has no right to pre-
scribe the manner in which the citi-
zens Of state may do business with
in that state. They commended that
that power rested in the legislature
and the state police.
Judge Wade holds that such regu-
lation is clearly within the power of
congress and does not interfere with
legitimate practice, or the legitimate
use Of drugs, only requiring the main
tenance Of proper records. The Judge
states that the sole question before
the court is whether that part Of the
Harrison drug act under which DR..
Miller was indicted fs constitutional
and whether there was evidence show
ing violation of the act.

OaiIu Stock Letter.
Daily Stock Letter.
TCopyright 1916 by the New York
Evening Post

Evening POST
NEW YORK, March THE finan-
cial markets, from force of habit If
for no other reason, watched Verdun
and Washington today. No very con-
elusive evidence of the situation came
from either quarter, but the large
majority in the house, which is the
first test vote on the armed ship
resolution supported the administra-
TONS wishes had its due effect. When
the news of this note was received in
the middle of the afternoon sharp
advance ensued in which the well
known investment shares led the
movement, for the first time in a num-
Der of days.
During the earlier hours, movement
of prices was irregular. Opening with
no great overnight change, such &C
tivity as developed was mostly re-
stricted to the industrial shares.
These stocks rose and fell alternately
in some cases with a good deal Of
violence. The net result varied con-
siderably with different shares,
though on the whole the tendency
seemed to be downward. AS might
have been imagined, it was chiefly
professional activities which govern
ed the market.
