GOSSIP OF A DAY.
Passing of the QuaCk and
Charlatan.
Doctors Are Registering Under
the New Statute.
First Cargo of COal--The Knife Might
Have Saved His Life.

At last Rhode Island is in a fair way
OF ridding itself of the medical mounte-
banks and charlatans who for years have
reaped a rich harvest of cold cash from
the credulous and unwary. Ii required
persistent work and constant hammer
ing, however, TO bring about the change,
for, strange as IL may appear, the ir.egu-
lar practitioners found many champions
of their cause among members of the
General Assembly from the country
towns. Bill after bill was framed for the
purpose of regulating medical practice,
only TO be shattered on the solid front
of an opposition that at one time seemed
destined 10 continue victorius indeh-
nitely. Such measures reused antago-
nism because some people regarded
them as unwarrantaDly interfering with
their personal liberty They insisted that
il was no business OF the State TO inter
fere with them in the matter OF choice
of a physician. IL trey saw fit TO employ
n graduate oi a medical college that was
their affair. IL, on the other hand, they
pinned their faith to a man who didn't
possess a piece of parchment with big
seal on il, that was equally their affair,
with which the State had nothing to do.
OF course this is a very foolish argument
but it took long time to overcome 1t, and
even now there are really intelligent men
who insist that il is a piece OF usurption
on the part OF the State to interfere in a
matter which, to their mind, belongs
solely to the individual TO settle in his
own way.
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1895-12-09

However, the change has been made
and this State cannot hereafter be made
the stamping ground of charlatans who
have been driven from other common
wealths by the stringent laws against
quackery. The new statute requires all
medical practitioners to register in the
Office of the clerk OF the city or town
in which they are located. Here
in Providence this requirement has
been generally complied with by
those who ought to be allowed
TO practice; that is, by properly qualified
physicians. Registration began on the
29th of July last, and from that time up
TO the present, 1872 medical men have
complied with the law. OF these 26 had
no diplomas from medical college, but
were given certificates under the provis-
ion of the statute which permits those IN
praet ice prior to 1892 TO cent
If this 1S2 represents the total ~of the
medical practitioners in Providence at
the present time, as II probably does, 1t
is very plain the new law has already
done some good for which the people
should be properly thankful

Fred Wiley Applies for a Pension.

Fred Wiley of Portland, a survivor of
the old battleship Cumberland, was in
Saco yesterday to appear before the ex-
amini ng board to secure pension.
He was shot twice in the leg, and one
of the bullets was extracted, but the
other still remains in his flesh. The
poison from the lead has caused his left
side to be nearly paralyzed.
He appeared about two weeks ago, be-
fore the Portland board, but they referred
him to the Saco examining committee.
He is one of eight brothers who went to
the front at the time of the war. and out
of the eight, five were killed and he was
severely wounded. He is native of Saco
In 1874 he entered the employ of W. G..
& G. r. Milliken, where he has been
