DIR. FLOWER WINs.
Judge witt Decided the Act Unconstitu-
ffonal-aiore Evidence.

ffonal-aiore Evidence.
In the hustings court yesterday Judge Witt
decided that the act upon which the proceed
incs were based in the Flower case is uncon-
sttutional SO far as it applies to the defend
ant.
Judge Witt occupied about five minutes IN
rendering his decision. and stated that he
had been unable 10 prepare written opinion
in the case but would submit one later should
the counsel desire il.
Ills Honor called attention 10 the section
of the Code in question which provides that
before q person shall practice medicine and
surgery in this State he shall receive "a GER
tifcate from the Board of Medical Examiners
and have it recorded in the county or city
where he resides. Had Dr. Flower gotten
a certificate. he would nave had no place 10
record IT, as he resides IN another state. Dr.
Flower while passing through Virginia had
treated patients and was afforded no facility
10 avail himself OF the provisions OF the law
hence II was unconstitutional as tar IS 1t ap-
piled 10 him.
Mr.. frank Christian. speaking IN behalf OF
his client, said that Dr. Flower came hero
ignorant of the laws. and attended o lew
patients without paying license tax. Just as
LAWYERS from other States visit Virginia and
prosecute their profession without paying the
revenue tax. Continuing Mr. Christian said
that the question OF license tax was a mat
ter OF Indifference t. Dr. Flower. He was
ready and willing 10 pay II whenever he was
advised the laws required 1t.
The counsel on both sides agreed 70 post
ponement until to-day when new information
will be filed.
The majority Of the audience yesterday
consisted of lawyers and doctors and great
interest was manifested throughout the pro-
ceedlngs.

royal welcome by his new congregation at the
church last night. The affair was a grand
success, and introduction and Misunderstanding

supper was spread IN the Sunday-school room
and followed u pleasant programme Of music
and short speeches. A number Of the pas
tors Of the other Baptist churches were
present. and the membership was
out IN large force. 1 met Mr.. Cade. and
found him man of genial manner and pleas
ant appearance. His long. full beard gives
him a rather patriarchia appearance. though
he is n the full vigor of life. Mr. Cade has a
large family and will bring them to Rich
mond early in the summer. He will preach
his Introductory sermon Sunday morning.

The only argument which is ever advanced
against ex-Presidcnt Cleveland by his oppo-
nen.s-indeod the only one they can advance
against hm--is that rs President he ala not
remove oil Republican officehoicers. Sueh
an objection is 70 absurd that 1t may well be
characterized as puerile. Setting aside t'e
fact that when no entered the White House
he found on the United States statute DOCKS
civil service law which his cath of Office CON-
PEELED him 10 respect. he could not, in the
short space of four years. have removed al
the Republicans he found in Office without
doing the public service irreparab-e injury
He was the first Democratic President the
country had been blessed with for quarter
of a century. During that long period OF
Radical rule. over one hundred thousand
Offices had been created. every one Of when
was filled with Republican, and II Mr.. CleTe-
land had gone 10 work to remove tins vast
army OF officials in one short term OF his Office
the wheels of Government would have been
completely clogged and public business would
have been paralyzed. Had he been reelected
there IS no doubt that by the end OF his
second term Republican ofiicehoider would
have been as hard TO find rs was a Democratic
official when his first term began. In acting
as he did Mr. Cleveland WAS governed by that
sterling sense of conscientious regard for the
public welfare which is one Of his most emil
nent characteristics. His enemies will have
to seek other causes against him. if they hope
TO destroy his popularity with the masses Of

II is refreshing to recur occasionally 10 first
principles, and Judge Witt yesterday gave
this community favorable opportunity for
indulging in this reflection by multiplying and
setting aside An act of the Virginia Legislature
which is in plain opposition 10 the Constitu-
ton of the United States. The act in CUES
ton provides that all physicians practicing
medicine in Virginia must have q license
T. do SO awarded them by the States
Board OF Examination; but it provides that
no one shall have this license unless lie
resides in the State OF Virginia or within ten
miles of the border of the State. OF course
this makes it impossible for a citizen of
Massachusetts or a citizen Of South Carolina
to obtain license to practice medicine in
Virginia. and the citizens of Virginia and the
citizens of those States immediately on her
borders have privilege in Virginia that citi-
zens of more distant States do not have.
Section 2 of article Of the Constitution of
the United States provides that the citizens
OF each State shall DO entitled to all privileges
ana immunities of citizens in the seyera,
States" which is the same thing as to say
TINT a citizen of Massachusetts shall have the
same privileges when in Virginia that a cit-
zen of Virginia has. This doctors law. how
ever undertook TO deny Dr.. Flower. citizen

lated upon the firmness with which he faced
tho issue and set the act aside.
Any vireinia quack who may by chance
pass tho Examining Board may under this
law practice medicine in Virginia. while tns
learned Doctor Agnew would be excluded
from that privilege. This Is MOTTO be thought
