SIT DOWN ON THE QUACKs.

A bill is now pending in the Legisla
ture which has for its object the resula
ton of the sale and practice of medicine
Some such measure has been sadly
needed in Utah for score of years past
This bill makes it a misdemeanor for any
person to practice the profession of ply
sician without first obtaining a license
from the county court and, when re-
quired, exhibiting his diploma and testi-
tying under oath that he is the partv
named therein. So far so good. But the
bill also contains a provision that per-
son desirous of taking out license to prac-
tlce medicine, and having no diploma
from an accredited medical college, shall
be examined by board of medical ad-
visers appointed by the court for the pur-
pose, and shall be granted OF refused a
license according as the report of the ex-
amining board shall be favorable or un-
favorable. This provision should be
stricken out, the reasons therefor being
manifest to all.
One Of the phenomenal manifestations
OF human nature which is the most diff
ficult to reconcile with human intelli-
gence, is the readiness with which men
and women of good judgment in matters
OF general interest, will place their lives
IN the hands of men of whose ability or
qualifications as physicians they have
not the slightest assurance except the ar
rogant assumptions OF the individuals
themselves. No man of average sense
would think of trusting his property in so
reckless manner. Before reposing trust
IN an individual he would ascertain with
the greatest care all about his integrity
and financial standing; and even then
he would require ample security against
possible loss. But when life and health |
are at stake, interests of infinitely greater
value than any monetary consideration,
men who are in all other matters shrewd |
and cautious, show the most reckless in |
difference to all precautionary considera-
tions.
The prevalence of this lack of caution
on the part of the people of Utah is. and
has been, a great source of revenue to
quacks and charlatans. These SELF
styled doctors are as ignorant of the
mysteries of the human system as they
are of the subtleties of the deferential
calculus, and as INSCRIPTIONS as they
are Ignorant. They have no reputation
to lose, and care only to enrich their
pockets.
Again we say, the man who cannot ex-
hibit diploma from an accredited medi-
cal college has no business to practice
the profe ION os physician, in Utah or
elsewher ,.na under severe penalty the ,
aw should prevent him from so doing
Salt Lake has, for years past, been a sort
of city of refuge for unscrupulous ouacks. .

Gives the Newspapers a Bad Name.

Utah's Surveyor-General is in peck
OF trouble at Washington, because ques-
ton of veracity has risen between him
and the newspaper correspondents. They
declare that he told them that the land
stealers in Utah were hand in glove with
the Federal officials, and he swears that
he never said any such thing. 1t is men
like Dement, who give the newspapers a
bad reputation and cause the President
to frown upon them.-Chicago Herald,

LAWRENCE BARRETT, the actor, has
been talking to reporter, and gives to
the world the fact that he is now yege-
tartan. 1t appears that he met a physi-
clan who told him that Americans ate
altogether too much underdone beef. and
ruined their lives. thereby. Barrett at
once determined to leave off beef-eating.
and although the struggle was hard, he
has finally conquered. and says he be-
lieves the vegetable diet has improved
his voice.

Where the Humorlst Came Out Strong

Sunset Cox is generally regarded as a
mercurial and fiippant sort of person, and
yet when he was offered liberal num-
Der of shares of Pan-Electric Telephone
stock he returned them with the wise
observation that they could not be very
desirable cor they would not be sent
around so fiuently," whereas Mr.. Gar
land, who is especially celebrated for his
profundity, caught at the bait very
readily, and now bangles in the atmo-
sphere for davis to peck it. This seems
to prove that it is better sometimes to be
humorist than to wear the sober mien
of deep and uncompromising wisdom

General Crook, he said, had no power to
administer punishment to these Indians:
they were prisoners of war in his hands.

determined by the President. They had
murdered about 40 people, and de-
stroyed large amount of property since
they broke out of the San Carlos Reser-
yatlon and went upon the war-path.
Geronimo claimed to have grievances.

servation had not been wisely admins

remained that these Indians hath ruth

tablishment on Church Hill, was driving
down the short hill from the Richmond
and Allegheny freight depot to Cary
street, his bridle.bit broke or came
loose in some way and his horse became
unmansgesble and commenced TO run
Upon getting to Cary street the animal,
instead Of keeping straight up Ninth to
Main, turned abruptly up Cary. The
consequence was the wagon was
turned over, the horse was thrown
and both Mr.. Hslloran and the
colored boy whom he had or
the wagon with him were thrown tc
the street with considerable violence
The former had his forehead quite
badly bruised and some slight cuts, and
the latter got one Of his fingers badly
cut. The horse--a fine iron-gray-wss
soon gotten up, and found to be very
much scratched but not seriously hurt.
The top part Of the wagon Was smashed
up generally, and one Of the shafts bro
ken. About three crates OF beer-bot-
ties, most OF them empty, were broken.
Mr.. Halloran was taken into Fagan's
junk-store, where no washed his face
lie soon came out, and hired another
wagon, with which be carried bis dam
sged property home. Under the cir
cumstsnces, he was fortunate that his
loss was not more serious.
