THE NEWSPAPERS CAN STOP TT.

SpClatlOn dl OCudild, idSt WCCNi uh7 seated an accredited delegate from St. Louis, who is a prominent phy- sician in the metropolis of that state, and voted to strike the St. Louis society from the roll of mem bership if it should fail hereafter to discipline members who adver- tise in the newspapers, which was the fragrant oHense of the medico who was unseated as delegate.
 Is it not about time that the newspapers put a stop to the con tinual boycotting of their business practiced by the medical profession under the pretense of enforcing what they are pleased to term "medical ethics" As profession they continually decry the journal istic profession, will not patronize it, and when an enterprising medico steps over the bounds set by the rest and does advertise, they com bine to boycott him and drive him outside the pale of professional responsibility. Yet the most of these eminently respectable protes- sional gentlemen are highly grati- fled at receiving big free adver- tisement in some newspaper Tn a half or three-quarter column ac- count of some remarkable operation performed or miraculous cure effect ed. In all the medical acquaint- ance of the editor of THE OASIS, extending over many years oi news paper experience, he can recall but two medical gentlemen who con sistently and persistently refused that sort of advertising.
 Now there is no reason in the world why the doctors should set themselves up as superior to the same influences for securing pub licity and extending their business (professional regulations that are so successfully employed by other people who for success depend npon public favor. Newspaper men are in that business Cor profession) for the same reasons that the doctors entered the medical profession-tc make their living and acquire com. petences. For the doctors to unite and say they will not employ the services ot newspaper men, and : resorting to measures so drastic a' they do when a medico does em
 ploy them, is dog in the mangei policy which is purely and simpl,
 unadulterated cussedness.
 Yet this whole matter is in th' hands of the newspapers, and
 they would unite against th' doctors as the latter have united
 against them, they could brini the entire medical profession t
 terms and make them all the mos
 liberal advertisers. Suppose th : newspapers would all agree t
