WAR OF THE DocroRs.

There is a question in the mind of
medical fraternities as to the next
probable candidate for recognition in
the great medical congress. First
We're the Alopathists. who refused
to recognize the Homeopathists when
they appeared on the field. They de-
nOunced them as murderers because
they let the victim die for want of
medicine They retaliated by applying
the same charge to the allopathic be-
levers because they slew the patient
by over-dosing. It was not long be-
fore the Ecleetics appeared, and then
the two former faiths joined forces to
eliminate the new arrivals, but in the
course Of time they became a recog-
nized force and We're Joined with the
other two for the destruction of a new
school known as the Christian Scien-
lists.
For some tine the trio waged war
upon the latter even hauling the be-
levers and practitioners before the tri-
bunals Of justice to answer the charge
of murder. This warfare was brought
to a close by the advent of a fifth hal
lucination in the form of Osteopathy.
which took turn at standing up un-
der the combined blows of the prede-
cessors. which continued to fall until
the Magnetic Healers made their
debut. The same performance on the
part Of the allied forces, now includ-
ing the followers of osteopathy, was
gone through with. Again the same
diversion. The magnetic heaIers be-
came part of the elect. and assisted
in the attempt to quash the Vito
pathists. The latest departure, the
Physio-Medical fraternity, is now
bearing the combined attack Of all the
others. including the vito followers.
What next? They have all acknowl-
edged their inability to find remedies

ample Blood letting. blisterfng. per-

GIVE Us MoRE LIGHT.

If there is power enough to be
spared at the city electric light plant
to run an ice plant. then there ought
to be power enough to do a little more
effectual lighting of the streets.
When the lights are supposed to be
burning the streets are dark enough,
as the lights burn with a very uncer-
tain glow The moonlight schedule
seems to be poor system to those who
wish for light If the moon happens
to be behind cloud. or late coming
up and the night is dark, it seems to
make no difference, and the street
lights do not burn just because the
moon should be. but is not. doing busi-
ness at the old stand Topeka, with
the street lighting plant that it has.
should certainly be better lighted.
