THE ETHICS OF MEDICINE.

| The general public is well aware of
the TacC JnaG uUwher {, oavo porhara in
the pulpit, has there been such marked
and violent antagcnism between men of
different beliefs, as between the advo.
eats Of the two great modern schools
Of medicine, known as allopathy and
homeopathy. 1t is true the general pub
lie his viewed this war of words and
opinions with comparative indifference,
but 1t has been war nevertheless, and
the din and clangOr of the contest has
penetrated the public ear despite the
general Indifference concerning the dis
pute. But the world moves" "times
change and men change with them,
Nowhere is there more forcibls
illustration of the truth of the
saying than in the recent action
of the Medical Society of the state of
New York. Acting upon a resolution to
expunge from the code of ethics such
portions as have become obsolete under
the altered conditions of modern life, |
we find that this New York society has
decided that allopaths and homepaths |
may consult and unite to promote the |
demands to suffering humanity without |
any principle of medical |
ethics. Prominent physicians, speak
ing of the resolution, vouchsafed the
deliberate opinion that the persecution
of hom9paths, implied in the refusal to
accept them as physicians, has con-
tributed no little to the success of
the homeopathic school in the United
States. Possessed of legal standing and
of excellent schools and
medical hospitals for clinical study,
the attempt to excommunicate them has
excited popular sympathy in their be-
half and helped to insure their prosper
ty. 1t is believed by many that this
measure, recently adopted in New York,
will eventually bring the two schools to-
yether and extinguish homeopathy as
special school of practice, practitioners
of all shades adopting what is valu-
able in the doctrines of Hahnemann,
and forgetting distinctive names in pro.
pfa65diGf"4 p6iGGf," AowttE7attier wttE7attiernity. The essential
profession of the state of New YYIoSTak
has placed itself on record as no longer
willing to exclude competent men
rom the consulting room because
of differences of opinion
IN therapeutics. The question is now
what course the American Medical asso-
'1atlon will take, in view of the example
yet by the New York doctors, which
places them in antagonism with phvsi-
'lans of the regular school in nearly
very other state of the union. A brief
lme will tell, and it may be borne in
and that progress and liberaIitv of
hOught are not easily checked.

A MAN OF THE TIMES.
For his yea it is yea,
And his nay IL Is nay,
And his unian ia avar sarapa

The EXAMINER is ever careful concern
ing criticism of the utterances of con-
emporary-especially one of such high
standing as the Observation-Disclosures, at
Fort Worth but we greatly fear the
D.-A. does not utilize its opportunities
For example, it does not appear to have
yet become acquainted with Governor
Oran NJ. Roberts, better known as the
cold alcalde." Our neighbor has been
reading the Governors late address to
the stockmens' conv ntion, recently in
session at Austin, and it expresses ap-
prehenslon that by his enthusiastic
treatment of the subject of "long-horns"
and short-horns the stock-raising
interest, in short-the alcalde may have
ailenated from himself the loyalty of
the agricultural masses, who have been
supposed, and no doubt justly, to be his
chief bulwarks. It fears that he has
receded from his notable proposition
that ''civilization begins and ends with
the plow." AS the D.-A. seems to be
really concerned On the old alcalde's
account, we beg to tender such assur-
ances as may restore confidence and tran
guilty. The eDemOcrat-Advanceh has heard
of the slogan of Napoleon's "Old Guard"
THE Guard never surrenders ?" No
more does the old alcalde. He has
more lives, politically speaking, than a
cat. He can never be hGisted and
thrown but he alights on his feet. What
would damn other men actually exalts
him. Never breeze that blew but it
waited wind into his ready-spread sails.
To put it plain, the present Governor of
Texas is one of the luckiest men, the
most astute politIcians-as our peculiar
southwestern politics go-that the sun
ever shone on. He is the darling of the
people and they are not ready to desert
him. When the time comes for action,
it Will be discovered he has made fair
weather with farmers and stockmen
alike-"civilization" will be illustrated
Jointly by the plow and the bell-spurs'
And now-to discard badinage-why
should not the Governor be popular and
potent? He has noted the tendencies of !
the times, the current of popular
thought. He has not refused education |
i'll the school of public experience. He
has adopted the progressive ideas of the |
times. He favors free education, immi- |
grafton, low taxes and internal develop |
Opment. He stands on platform that !
rivals, in its intelligence and liberality,
the one presented by the minority at
Dallas. To make long matter short,
the old alcalde is en- rapport with the
spirit of the age. Who shall say him
nay? Who shall prevail against him?
We give it up, and beseech our Fort |
Worth contemporary to eschew yexa-
ton of spirit on the old alcalde's ac-
himself

SPIRIT OF THE TEXAS PRESS.

Houston POST The Austin Statesman,
under theihead of "A Mares Nest" de-
tends Governor Roberts from the asper-
slons cast upon him for endorsing the
bill for S100 paid the Gilbert Book COM
pany for furnishing $50 copies of his
work on Texas to be used in the Hunts
Vile normal school as textbook. Had
we been in the Governors place, we
would have esteemed DIR. Baldwin's
proposition as a sharp piece of irony in
tended to draw down on our head the
ridicule of every scholar in the state.
But the Governor put his personally
aesthetic feelings in his pocket and in
dorsed the bill. Now, we would simply
ask if anybody takes Governor Roberts
for fool, even if he be obtuse as to his
deficiency in grammar and orthogra-
ply? If there be any one who has such
an idea, he had better rub his eyes and
look again.
Brennan Banner: The conservative
press of the state have nothing to ask
at the hands of the politicians; all they
want is to subserve the best interests of
the people at large, irrespective of the
wishes OF the office-seekers. The name
of republican, greenbacker or independ-
ent does not scare them; they know they
are in the right and have the masses of
the people on their side. The utmost
liberty in political opinions is the best
for all concerned.
Austin statesman: The alcalde seems
determined that the "childrens' lands"
shall be protected, and to read his speech
before the stock men, Thursday, one
cannot avoid being impressed with the
idea that he is not so much of an anti
public school man as some OF his enc
mics would fain have it appear.
Pittsburg Magnet: Prohibition and
temperance are receiving more atten-
ton throughout the country than at any
time il its past history. Let the good
work go on, for if there is one curse of
the present day that stands pre-emi-
nently above another, it is this dreadful
curse of drinking.
Fort Worth Democrat: The only OBJ
lection We had to running Sui. Ross.
for Governor was that he already occu-
pied more exalted position, that of
journalist. Now that he has retired from
the EXAMINER the only objection is
removed, and we are unqualitiedly for
"Sul Ross for Governor"
Galveston Journal: With eleven seats
in the national house of representatives
Texas will be able to provide places for
some of her distinguished sons who are
now pinipg in obscurity because there
were not enough seats at the disposal of
Texas to provide one for each of them.
Dallas Herald: Senator Coke, in his
recent great speech on the tariff, has
thus not only won glory for himself but
has reflected credit and honor upon the
state whose representative he is. He
occupies very conspicuous and inhuen-
tial position in the United States.

a Pretty Girl a. n Shoemaker.


Atlanta can boast of a genuine curl
osity-a live female shoemaker-young,
pretty and industrious. Having occa-
sion to send my little nephew with a
pair of boots to be mended, he sur
prised me on his return by remarking
that "she" said so and SO about the
boots l then learned for the first time
that we had in ourneighborhood a young
girl, under 20 years of age, the daughter
of shoemaker, who daily works at the
trade herself, not only mending, but
making in good style both boots and
shoes. For several years past she has
been thus engaged, and has won the
respect and patronage of a large circle
Of appreciative families.

Hancock, the superb, was visitor to
New Orleans yesterday, to enjoy the
Mardi Gras festivities. He finds far
different state of affairs there now than
when he left, in 1865, displaced because
of his devotion to the principles of civil
liberty. 1t is to be regretted the gallant
soldier and tried patriot could not have
extended his visit to Texas, where he is
and will ever be so cordially esteemed
and hOnored.

AN USEFUL CONGRESSMAN

One of the ablest speeches made in
the house of representatives during the
present session was that on the 18th
instant, by Hon. Olin Wellborn, of Dal-
las. 1t was elected by the pending
apportionmept bill, Mr. Wellborn being
opposed to the plan suggested by Mr.
Seaton, of the census bureau. We have
read it entire, in the Congressional
Record, and can cheerfully pronounce
1t the most intelligent handling of the
subject we have seen. Private adyices
from Washington assure us that
1t attracted earnest and general
attention and received the COM
mendation of many of the Oldest
and most distinguished members of
both houses. Georgia never sent more
valuable citizen to Texas than Colonel
Wellborn, and it is safe 10 say that any
political scheme contemplating an
OF his usefulness will meet !
with general disapproval. The EXAMINER
tenders this tribute gratuitously. Col.
Wellborn is not in our district and we
have never made his personal acquain-
5ance. But his public services are on
'Ncord. We read of his intelligent,
practical efforts in behalf of his imme-
hate constituency and the state at large,
ma have learned to appreciate his
Iaiue' not alone to the people of the
ihird district, but Texas as well. When
ne people have fairly enlisted the ,
ervlces OF such men it pays to retain
ne mem as long as they are willing to put
SIDE the allurements of private for the
nerous duties of public life. W VIZ Z
