AFTER OSTEOPATHS
MEDICAL EXAMINERS WILL PROS
ECUTE THEM.
AN INTERESTING FIGHT
States Charge Will be Based on the
Claim That Osteopaths are not
Giving Medical Treatment-Larg-
est College of It's Kind Located
in Milwaukee.

The state board of medical examin'
ers has decided to prosecute every
doctor of osteopathy in the state on
two counts. First on the charge OF
unlawfully using the title of doctor,
and second on the charge OF holding
out as physician without having rec
ognized license. The state board of
medical examiners has been accumu-
lating evidence for some time, and the
prosecution will be begun in the
police court soon.
There is little doubt that the action
of the board will be bitterly fought by
the osteopaths. The state is prepared
to carry the case to the supreme
court in order that the matter once
begun, may be settled for all time. It
will be far-reaching in it's effects, in
asmuch as the largest college of os-
teopathy in the world is located in
Milwaukee. Much of the evidence to
be presented by the board has been
taken from pamphlets and periodicals
published by the Milwaukee College
of Osteopathy The official organ Of
this college states that the college
"confers the degree upon graduation
of doctor of osteopathy, instead of
diplomatic of osteopathy." Another
clause states that sit is absolutely di-
vorced from drugs and the knife, and
makes use of none of the appliances
of other schools in treating diseases"
Osteopathy is legally recognized in
Vermont, Missouri, North Dakota,
Michigan, Iowa and South Dakota.
The state board will base it's case
mainly on the allegation that the
osteopaths in Wisconsin are giving
medical treatment for the alienation
of disease and in some instances
prescribing medicine and drugs with
the osteopathic treatment. Their
method of treatment in the language
of their pamphlets is simply defined
as a scientific method of treating
disease by as killful manipulation of
the body, adjusting any abnormity of
the parts and preserving the integrity
of the entire mechanism
The science, so-called, was dis
covered by DR.. A.: T. Still of Baldwin,
Kan, in 1874, and has been extensive
ly practiced since that time. It is de-
rived from the Greek osteon, bone,
and pathos, suffering, and is legally
defined where it was first practiced as
"a system, method, or science of heal
ing"
The test case is expected to at
tention than did even the now ia
nous Christian Science prosecution,
and bids fair to develop into some
thing Of greater magnitude because of
the existence in Milwaukee of the
college which is at present largely at
tended by students of the science who
will all be affected by the decision of
the higher court in the event that the
allegations of the state board Of med
ical examiners are upheld.
