1Ix-County Supervisor Butler Thros-

yesterday as special committee from
the city OF Sheffield to induce the pres
ent board of supervisors to build two
bridges near Sheffield This district
is under the supervision OF Supervisor
D. B. Henderson. In the interview rel
alive to the matter an alteration was
brought about by Mr.. Henderson's
making charges against Throssel.
saying that .Tlrossel was trying to
run the district. Throssel resented 1t
and trouble was narrowly averted by
Henderson. There has evidently been
bad feeling by Henderson against the
former supervisor and he feels that he
has not been fairly treated by Thros-
sci. Throssel was here as member OF
the city council OF Sheffield and says
he has no hard feelings against Hen
derson who acted entirely without
provocation in the matter. The coun-
Gil at Sheffield will In all probability
take up the matter as they need the
bridges and Henderson told Throssel
he would not promise anything to
them.

PROGRESS Would Seem to Mean

Profession
N. j. RlcE's REMARKABLE PAPER
County Physician Delivers Address On
"some Unpleasant Facts About the
Now and tho Future" Before Meeting
Of Council Bluffs Medical Society
Life of the Average Practitioner.
Special to Tlmes-Republican.


Council Bluffs, Nov. II. - Progress
and improvements in medical science
tend to decrease the income of the
physicians while similar advancement
in any other business or profession re-
suits in profit to those concerned. This
was the central thought Of remark
able paper which County Physician N.
]. Rice read before the meeting of the
Council Bluffs Medical Society last
night. DIR. Rice entitled his address,
"some Unpleasant Facts About the
Now and the Future" He called at
tention to the fact that In the medical
profession as in no other, progress
seems to mean poverty. Tho amount
paid physicians today Is less than ever
before according to population, de-
clared DR.. Rice, and the number oil
physicians is much larger.
".The more progressive the farmer
the greater his net resultsi the busler
the merchant the more demand for his
goods the greater degree Of efficiency
the manufacturer In production, the
greater his reward. But the long hours
of research, the more successful the
hunt for microbes and bacteria, the
more faithful the teaching as to the
cause OF disease and its prevention, the
less need of the physician and his Pills
with corresponding decrease in his IN
come.
ut would seem that anyone familiar
with the life of the average practit-
Toner would hesitate to advise bright
mind to now take up medicine. Were
the legal profession bringing forth
measures so universally beneficial, they
would see to 1t that their brethren were
fully compensated, and that the bene-
flciaries adequately compensated the
Individual benefactors. but the Hypo-
cratic oath which binds all physicians
and makes Of them the most gener-
Gus and gullible Of people. prevents any
such transactions.
"The surgeon, too, by the discover
les of the bacteriologists is making
inroads on the general practitioner.
The cause and cure of peritonitis thru
the removal OF the appendix Is an ex-
ample. An ordinary country physician
who would not advise and insist upon
his patient submitting to an operation
for a permanent cure would be un-
worthy Of the profession, and yet In so
doing he reduces his list OF patients
lust one more. John Jones as suf-
ferer from intestinal trouble would
yearly fee the physician for treatment,
but operate on him for appendicitis
and he ceases to be patient"
