THE NEW MEDICAL LAW.

Reno Gazette, May 8: DR.. W. A.
Phillips informs the Gazette that At
torney- General Jones has rendered his
decision to DR.. Lee, secretary OF the
newly appointed Medical Board, in rela-
ton to the s25 TO be paid the Board under
the law.
The Attorney General holds that physi-
clans prsoticing in this State prior to
March Is, 1899, who have complied with
the law Of 1875, should not be compelled
TO pay the S25 or any other sum. That
they would have to send to the new Board
their diplomas with evidence Of having
complied with the old law, and the Board
would issue them q new license to con-
tinue practice.
All doctors who have come 10 the State
since March Is, 1899. and who may come,
will be compelled to pay SIS.
The Board will meet again on the Goth.
Those wishing to recognize the new law
should send their credentials to DR.. W.
A. Phillips, president. or DR.. s. L. Lee.
secretary, before that time.
In Q later account the Gazette says o
reporter Of that paper saw Attorney
General Jones, and he said in correction
OF the above statement that 1t lie his opin-
ion that the new law in no manner affects
physicians who were entitled to practice in
this State on March Is, 1899, and that the
Board OF Medical Examiners has no juris-
diotion over such physicians. In other
words, physicians who had q right to
practice under the laws of this State
at the date Of the approval OF the new
law, are in no way affected by IL. The
State Board Of Medical Examiners cannot
require such physicians TO pay any fee.
In another opinion given to the State
Board Of Medical Examiners, the Attorney
General advised that the State Board had
no jurisdiction to site those suspicioned OF
being illegal practitioners before it for an
examination. II there be persons in the
State who are practicing medicine unlaw-
fully il Is the province Of the courts, on .
proper charge and conviction, to punish
such illegal practitioners under the penal
laws OF the State.
