bers Of the Board OF Dental Examiners.
Senator McCandless had doubts
about the medical examiners. There
was some difficulty arising from dis
like of one or two doctors by some
other practitioners. He would like TO
know ii those appointments had any
thing to do with preventing certain
doctors, who were fully qualified. from
praCticiDg their profession.
Senator McCandless could give the
previous speaker information on the
matter. The Board OF Health had
nothing 10 do with the Board OF MCdi-
cal examiners. These examiners had
% sc" that doctors who came here had
their proper certificates, and II found
wanting to subject them to a strict eX-
animation. He was sorry TO hear that
an attempt was made to shut out any
qualified doctor. They could not shut
out foreign doctors who had diplomas.
II was desirable, however. to keep out
ignorant doctors who would prey on
the community The members nomi.
mated as examiners were trustworthy.
He knew there were doctors here who
were splteful against others, and II the
names of such were on the board he
would vote against them.
Senator Wilcox replied to a query
raised by Senator J. T. Brown as to
the citizenship of the nominees There
was no doubt about any Of them. One
was Hawaiiau-bOTn.
Senator ..CCandless mentioned the
name of DR.. Noblitt as one who had
been opposed by other doctors. His
standing was unquestloned and he was
well liked by the people among whom
he practiced. The speaker moved that
the nominations OF dental examiners
be confirmed and those of medical ex'
aminers be held over for further in
yestigation.
After several motions had been
made the ayes and noes were called
separately for each board. That Of the
dentists was confirmed unanimously.
