THE BOARDS REPLY.

Every reader of course read the re-
ply of the members of the board Of
aldermen published in yesterday s
paper. There is but little in it. II
quotes law as to what they may do
and what they can do as they are III
the majority, but not in single in
stance does the article say what they
are doing is very much disapproved
by the majority of the people of the
CITY who have the bills to foot and
whose business is being injured. 1t
is we'll enough to repeat what the law
saws. but the law does not say and
does not intend to convey the idea
that a majority of the board shah do
acts that are directly against the best
interests of the city. The law deos
not intend that the office of police
Justice shall be created and the ex-
penses at the same time increased I'M
less there is q good cause for it. The
law does not say that one police force
shall be discharged and another put
in its place unless there is reason
beneficial to the city for the act.
The law does not say nor does it init
mate that things shall be done by the
majority of the board of aldermen
that are not approved by the majority
of the people and that the people
must endure them in silence whether
they benefit or injure their business
and their city. The intentions Of
the law are to build up-not to pull
down.
The members of the present board
are all high-toned gentlemen and al
they say they are conscientious il
what they are doing, but they appear
to have taken on large dose of par.
tisanship and do not listen to reason
Before they came into power every
thing was working smoothly and Will
as much harmnoy as is generally
found in municipal legislature
The city had saved considerable
money which was put into the general

PATENT MEDICINES.

y man goes 70 medlcal coiie1s
and studies night and day until he
becomes almost blind. He returns
home, makes "a little money and goes
back. Finally he secures his sheep
skin, " as it is called Then he ap-
plies with trembling and fear before
the medical board Of examiners. Per
haps he stands the examination and
receives a license to practice. This
he sticks away down in the pocket OF
his jeans and hangs out his Single
Then he sits down to read over the
papers and wait for a call The first
thing that meets his eye is flaming
medicine advertisement. 1t begins,
"No cure, no pay" ad nproceeds TO
tell all the diseases the medicine will
cure, which includes every one known
to medical science. Then the new
son of the medical fraternity will
begin to reason 10 himself III this
wise:
AT the start 1 viii have to depend
upon the poorer class Of people for
my patronage. Many Of them are
ignorant and believing what the ad-
vertisements say they will buy these
patent medicines and if they die l
lose them as customers; if they re-
cover | lose them anyway The
patent medicine man never lost
nights sleep in his life studying
medicine. He does not have to stand
a rigid examination or secure IL
cense from the state. He does not
have to pay board three months before
he has patient. He pays nothing,
not even the printer, for this adver-
tisement [ see here is not at the top
Of the column and next to pure read
ing matter. If it was it would
amount to the same, for he would lie
about not receiving the paper so he
could check up 1 am becoming a
little discouraged and wish l had
studied for Hard Shell minister.
Thus he argued to himself and
wondered why the Legislature could
not do something with these patent
drugs that never cure, but often kills.
If all the papers of the state
would adopt the business policy
adopted by the Progress these ven
doris in patent medicines would have
hard time introducing their drugs
in the state When one comes along
and says he wants space in the adj
vertising columns of the Progress he
is asked if it is wanted to advertise
patent medicine. If he answers in
the affirmative he is told very plainly
that this paper does rot want nor
will it handle such business. We
have lost more on this class Of adver-
tising business than any other kind
and the Progress will never take any
more of it while under the present
management
But in our sweeping assertion
about these medicines we Go not mean
that there are not some that are good
and will cure some diseases. But as
a general thing they are frauds with
dishonest men backing them.
