The vast amount of Plantation B tiers
now being sold and shipped from New
York is almost incredible. Go when and
where you will--along tho wharves and
piers, and the depots-you will see great
piles of these Bitters awaiting shipment
and conveyance to every nook and corner
of the country, and the hundreds Of for
eign ports. They are very popular among
all classes Of people, and are conceded to
be just the thing for this climate. No
Bitters have yet been introduced which
have become 40 deservedly popular aid
worthy of patronage, to al! who require a
tonic and stimulant. They are prepared
with pure St. Croix Rum, Calisaya and
Cascarilla Bark, and all the world kno
full well what beneficial results accrue
from these combinations.

MoNoNA, June 18th, go.

MoNoSA, June 18th, 90.
Eds. North Lo,cd Times:
see in the proceedings Of the North
Iowa Medical Association, reported in the
McGregor Meas, and briefly alluded to in
your last issue, that was expelled from
that Association for gross" violation of
the code of Medical Ethics. Now, my
purpose in writing this article is not to
grumble or complain over any act of that
Association, but inasmuch as the gen.
tlemen who had the kindness to make the
report for the press, did not have the
firness to state what particular oflense
was charged with, l thought it but JUS
tice to myself, and courtesy to my patrons,
that l should let the public know the
nature of the gross charge. The charge
preferred against me was, adv rtising, and
| was unaware that advertising
was forbidden by the National Associa-
ton at the time that | advertised. Still
had known it, under all the circumstan-
ces, it became necessity forced upon ne
by some of the members of that Associa
ton. These are the facts-the greater
part of the past winter | spent at the
Medical University of Toronto, and was
absent from the vicinity Of my practice
about four months in the mean time,
some of the members Of the Association
from which have been expelled, took
particular pains to misinform the public
that was never coming back, and in
various ways'tried to injure my practice
such conduct is also "a violation of the
code'-as | think there IS also a rule
which requires the members to support
each other rather than injure the practice
| OF any one it was for this reason that
did not attend the last meeting on the
Sd OF June. am conscious that mem
bership in the Association is benefit so
long as members live up to the spirit
which prompted its organization. But
when members take an opposite course,
and allow their passions, prejudices, or
pecuniary interests, SO far to govern them
as not to allow them to treat any one
member with that courtesy which is due
him as MEMBER, then there is no longer
any inducements to retain membership.
| am perfectly Indifferent as to what ever
course their wisdom may lead them to
pursue-and if they had told the public
the nature Of the charge preferred against
me, l should.not have taken the pains of
writing this article. In asking the public
for patronage, intend to rely on my suc>
cess in the practice of medicine, rather
than membership in any Association.
Truly yours,
Dr. j. Hicks.

Governorship being rendered to A. P.
II. of the North Iowa TIMES, with
Gen. FUTILE at the head. Other
writer's have said the same to us. Gen.
futile is one of natures noblemen
and we have the reputation of being
good boy. Iowa will be well repre-
sented if the Gen. and the wrirer are
elected, but, good lord what does
McGregor want with so many distin-
guished men? Why cant the ticket
be reversed? We prefer to be COVER
NOR! futile was only a soldier. So
was Capt. Benton late of the McGre-
gor Post Office. Grant, Allison & Co.
removed him and give his place to OF e
who never fought for the freedom OF
the black race; this being the practice
OF the administration why should Gen.
futile, the soldier and the patriot, be
placed ahead of as on the ticket. Are
not the stay-at- homes entitled to the
first position?
