The points urged by the convention are
as follows: That a state board Of equaiza-

revenue law. appointing two freeholders
each, be repealed; that the assessor be re-
lieved of the duty Of collecting sgrioult-

first attached the assessors certificate that
the description of the land involved
has been taken; that all notes

1t is believed that the suggestion OF the

a Lively Tilt Between Two Ply sicians
of ghomasville.
AMERICUs, GA, April 2O.-The morn
ings session of medical association was
taken up almost entirely by a discussion of
professional ethics and the necessity for q
medical examining board IN Georgia
The first subject developed a sensation
that came near resulting in a surgical
clinic not down on the programme. Bad
feeling that evidently existed at home be-
tween Drs. Hopkins and Mcintosh OF
ThomasvIlle got the better of these gentle
men to-day. The lie was passed, and
weapons drawn. The Intervention of cooler
heads alone prevented more serious
results. Apologies followed, but some
think the trouble is not ended
The trouble was started by Dr.
Hopkins getting the association
TO condemn the practice of physicians plac-
ing their ma es on advertising cards in
hotel rooms and charging DIR. Mcintosh Of
being guilty of this unprofessional practice.
During the debate it was argued that a
physician Is allowed to place card in ne VS.
papers so all may read, then why not let
him place his name on advertising cards in
hotel rooms. Is there not danger Of press
Ing this question of professional ethics too
far2
The debate on the necessity of the state
medical examining board developed much
feeling for such legislation, several claiming
that it would result in elevating the profess
sion Intellectually and in general pro-
fciency.
Nothing OF any special interest occurred
during the afternoon session.
1t Is pretty definitely foreshadowed that
DR.. Elliott Of Savannah will be elected
president tomorrow If he will consent to

character and has made several desperate
attempts to break jail. He has attacked
the jailer on several occasions and has been
