THE CAR CONDUCTOR.
lrodern Methods Have Not Operated To
Make His job Easier.

1t used to DO a comparatively easy job
TO BIO tho conductor of horse car in New
York city, for the reason that all he had
to do was to collect fares, take passengers
on and let them off. OF course man
earned his money before the day was out,
but he very seldom had an especially hard
time doing 1t. Now the new and involved
system of transfer tickets makes life a
burden to the men who stand all day on
the tail ends of cars.

Have You Investigated?

tor Or Doctors You
Employ.
Be Careful of Medical Institutes
Dares Not Publish His Own
Name

On Saturday October 2, the Copper
Country Evening News published a re-
print OF the st. Louis Republic beaded,
"Trade in bogus diplomas; boguscolleges
grant fraudulent medical certificates;
hundreds posing as physicians who are
not entitled to practice, nearly all hold
ing these diplomas are ignorant Of the
rudiments OF medicine
The article further goes on to state
that there are two OF these bogus col
leges now domiciled in Illinois. Up to a
few months ago there was another hold
ing a charter from the State OF Wiscon-
sin, but in consequence OF the removal OF
it's headquarters to illinois the charter
has been forfeited at the instigation OF
the State officials.
Long before the above article appeared
in the local papers have we warned the
people OF the copper country OF the un.
scrupulous men who are rractlcing med
icine; there are thousands of them scat
tered throughout this country, who make
a living by praying upon the sick and
afflicted; we have long warned the people
to be careful whom they employ as their
physician, as he may be one who has
either bought or stolen a piece OF paper,
and after filing in his name, calls tia
diploma.
In every walk OF life, in every trade
and in every profession we find some
who are an honor to their fellow work
ers while Others are Disgrace. But in
DO other instance can one so hoodwink
J the public as in the medical profession.

SPANS REPLY PACIFIC.
Full Text of the Document Read at tho
Cabinet Meeting.

Cabinet Meeting.
Washington. Nov. 1O.-The full text
of Spain's reply to the Woodford note
was read at the cabinet meeting. Its
tone was pacific and instead of being
at all warlike was regarded by the
cabinet as very satisfactory and as
calculated to allay any fear of hostile
outbreak.
The cabinet also gave considerable at
tention to the ice-bound Boring sea
whale fleet. Two plans have been de-
cided upon, one to send the Bear, from
Seattle, which cannot be got ready for
two weeks and another, to send the
Thrasher, a whaling vessel now at San
Francisco. This latter determination
was reached after the receipt Of tele-
gram by Secretary Long from the COM
mandant of the Mare Island navy yard.
The Thrasher can be provisioned at once
and sent Immediately on her mission.
1t is stated that there is a very good
supply of provisions at Point Barrow
and another supply at Herschel island.
also that at least three vessels well
supplied with provisions will winter In
the arctic. The location of the reindeer
In Alaska which are wanted for trans
portation is not known. but II Is be-
lieved a supply can be obtained.
Amnesty for ompetitor Crew.
Washington, Nov. 10.-Spain will re-
move one OF the most serious dangers
OF friction with the United states by
granting amnesty to the Competitors
prisoners. The announcement will be
made in an amnesty proclamation short
~ to be issued by the Spanish govern
ment. An intimation OF SPANS action
mas been given to the administration.
This action would indicate that the Sa-
gasta ministry intends to start it's work
OF attempting the pacification of Cuba
by completely reversing the policy OF
General Weyler. 1t Is supposed here
that the Spanish government proposes
TO direct the discharge Of these prison
ers upon condition that they viii leave
the island of Cuba at once. never to
return.
Acknowledges United States Rights.
London, Nov. 10-It is published here
with show of authority that Spain has
defiantly acknowledged the right of the
United States to interfere in Cuba This
Is regarded as a remarkable concession
and substantial gain for the Monroe
doctrine. The st. James Gazette,
conservative organ, regards II as 9
great diplomatic victory for Minister
Woodford and President Mckinley.
