sack.
The resolution offered by NJ f. Middle
ton, of Camden, at the last meeting was
referred to the Legislative Committee ap-
pointed for 1SS9-90.
The resolution was in reference to the
pursuance of concerted action on the part
of hompopaths of the United States to
secure proper medical legislation. The
number of unqualified physicians who
have gained admission to the fraternity
renders it absolutely necessary that steps
be taken to elevate the standard of med
ical education. The resolution recon-
mended the formation of a National
Board, to be composed of legislative
committees of the various State societies,
for the purpose of securing such legisla-
tion as they might deem necessary for the
purpose above mentioned.
The society pledged itself to sumbit to
the most rigorous examination, but in
sisted upon a separate examining board
composed exclusively of the homeopathic
school.
Among the papers read were the follow
ing:-"Oriticial Surgery; Case" +. p.
McKinsler, of Washington; Surgery and
Surgical DRESSING G. +, Applegate, of
New Brunswick; Therapeutics Of Zymo-
tic Diseases" j. Younglove;" "Obstet-
rics," E. NJ. Howard, of Camden; "Ob-
Passaic: "Suspensory Bandages for Cure

Gated physicians should have equal rights
