JUSTICE IN THE POLICE COURT. On the 15th of current month we recetved notice to appear at the above honorable body to answer charge of selling oleomargarine, representing it to be genuine gonis. The counsel for the defence raised the point of jurisdiction and his honor, Judge Snell, almost “at that time sustained the potnt raised by defence, but added that the sale of olevomargarine was a serious matter, affecting the entire communtty, and therefore he would proceed to hear evidence for the government and that he Would decide the matter of jurisdiction after- wards, thus giving the defence no opportunity to disprove the stateient made by the wil for the prosecution. While his honor, Judge Snell, holds as his personal opinion that Oleomargarine is superior to the genuine dairy product, we deny ever having sold the article, but we have sold but. terine, always having it properly marked, so that everybody knew just what they purchased. If we had “had an opportunity to have examined our Witnesses before the Police Court, doubtless the Witnesses for the government would not have had their liberty much longer if there is any law left to h perjury. The eatire affair, as acknowl- ed by a Witness for tie government,was a bust hess prejudice, and as such we rest our case, never having ‘found {t expedient with business principles to inisrepresent any article.
