UPON TH|SDR. MCCOYINS|STS
AS Right Which Is His and Duty Which Every Right
Minded Person Owes to Humanty-The Searching In
vestgatioa Of These Cures the Only Answer to Care
less and Dangerous Criticism.

The greatest wrong that is inflicted on the splen
did work Doctor Mccoy is doing for humanity
comes from those so-called Intelligent critics who
say something like this: "oh, yes Doctor Mccoy
Is scientist. an able physician all right. He
does as much good as any doctor, probably; more
good than most doctors: but he don't There
Is no one who 10y the science of medicine does
cure. They may relieve symptoms and benefit to
some degree, perhaps. but they don't Medi-
cine is not exact science"
Those who talk like this the most dangerous
enemies TO this splendid work. The science OF
medicine that Doctor Mccoy represents does cure
1t is exact science. There half truths
in 1t. There is only answer % such dangerous
criticism, and that answer is, INVESTIGATION.
Upon that answer Doctor Mccoy insists as his
right in this community. duty that al we'll
thinking people owe to :he noble science of medi-
cine, a duty that all the people owe TO the
brotherhood of Man Investigate these cases.
Go and them. Write to them. See and talk
with their friends and neiShbors. Prove the truth
they are cured. Doctor Mccoy tells you they are
cured.
Now, when a sO-cnIIed Intelligent
ticisIn, be prepared to answer him
with this: 81 have been to see these
people. L have written them. 1 have
investigated their cases cfrcum-
stantfully. 1 know all about them.

cases by Doctor Mccoy
These cases in these columns are printed for nc
Other purpose than TO answer this kind OF criti
csm. They are selected from different sec tions OF
the city, from people who are accessible 10 you,
whom you and see. Searching Investigation
by intelligent right minded people is the answer io
this dangerous though superficial skepticisIn, which
Doctor Mccoy has the right to demand.

speech. He said in part: "My friends,
one of the first things we hear from the
other side of the question is that a flood
of silver would follow the enactment of
a free coinage bill. This is a most alb
surd proposition. All the silver in for
eign countries is coined, and that, too,
at a higher valuation than Is placed upon
it here. America is the only country in
the world that has stock of silver bull
lion, and that stock is small. A flood
of silver is something we shall never
see.
Again, they assert we have q fairly
large circulating medium, and this in
face of the fact that any man who il
familiar with rules of arithmetic can
take copy of the reprots of the di-
rector of the mint, paper and pencil
and prove that our per capita is less
than So"
The speaker then gave a resume of
Major McKinley's record in regard to
free coinage, giving numerous extracts
from the meandering majors former
speeches. He then called attention to
the remarkable circumstance that men
who had for years been employing men,
and during all that time had been using
every effort to lower the rate of wages,
are now shedding buckets of briny tears
because they fear the workingman's
wages will be reduced.
Mr.. Sheehan's remarks were very IA
vorably received. He is a painter by
trade, but he is unmistakably an orator.
President Young then addressed the
club in brief but very earnest, words.
He spoke of Mr.. Hanna and his hold
on the major, SO meek and mild, in
courteous but not uncertain terms
The next meeting will take place
next Monday evening, at which time Mr..
c. c. Wright will speak.

FARMERS INSTITUTES

The Farmers Institutes held in South
ern California have been useful and are
justly popular. Their strongest point
is the opportunity for the attending
farmers, gardeners, fruit growers, etc,
for the exchange of experiences and to
learn from each other Before there
were any Farmers Institutes Southern
California had strong local societies of
horticulture and pomology that had fire.
quent and largely attended meetings.
great good grew from these farmers
meetings. Our horticultural society was
strong enough to erect a large pavilion
on Temple street, which was lost to it,
we believe, by internal dissensions.
These old societies were entirely volun-
teer affairs and cost the taxpayers
nothing. The meetings were always
welcomed in the farming communities.
The new type of Farmers Institutes
are carried on or organized by paid men.
Probably this is now necessary. Once
establish a paid organization and the
unpaid enthusiast will be replaced just
as has happened with us. Our local vol
unteer societies have nearly lost their
initiative.
Inc leS1tlmate ana necessary cost
of a series Of Farmers Institutes, such
as we have just had, is small. 1t in
cludes the pay of several competent es-
sayists, an organizer and travelling ex-
penses. Farmers Institutes do good
and from henceforth must probably be
carried on by paid men, instead of by
the old volunteers.
For Southern California these farmers
meetings should be under local control.
The fiourishing scientific society of
Southern California suggests itself as
the proper body to receive the state aid
required and to organize the meetings
and dispense the funds. This society has
large amount of talent and enthusi-
asm and has shown its faith by its
works. The original work done in scien-
tific lines under the auspices of this So
ciety has attracted wide attention and
favorable comment, even in foreign coun-
tries. The strong business organization
of this society is fully competent to do
this work and to further inaugurate a
body of scientific men to take up our
farming problems and to put the ques-
tions to nature, giving the answers out
in popular form.

IN SOCIETY

A delightful beginning for the social
gathering of the week was the afternoon
given yesterday by Miss Florence Will
liams and Miss Louise Bourke at the
home of the former on Figueroa street.
An animal game was played by
alloting numbers to each, this signify
ing the animal they were to draw, which
were afterward guessed. The game was
much enjoyed and was highly amusing.
Miss Emma Graves contributed with
vocal music. The large side veranda was
canvased in and made a charming nook
where the tempting viands were served.
There were no decorations, save the
pretty faces of the girls, who, arrayed
in daintiest of toilets, were sufficient to
prizes awarded, the first fancy head
framed in gold, the second Delft plate.
The pleasures of the afternoon were
rounded out by a recitation by Miss
Mead Among those present were:
