City Physicians Estimate Close to-
That of Last Year.

City Physician H B. Hogeboom has
returned to Mayor Davis an estimate
for the ensuing year of the expense OF
running his department. The estimate
as handed in is for the year ending
December 81, 1905, but this according
to DR.. Hogeboom is a mistake and is
intended to mean for the fiscal year
ending March 81, 1906. The estimate
calls for $780, The estimate as
turned in last year by. the health de-
partment of the former administration
was S9,385.61. The actual operating
expenses exceeded this. however, some
thing over a thousand dollars
Mayor Davis as he glanced over the
figures which were contained in the
estimate presented this morning raised
his eyebrows in surprise. why, this
is almost as high as that Of last year, ="

ing abolition of the annual distribution

Lodge said that the custom had be-
come a huge joke among the people

him up.
Senator Lodge is right. The free
seed distribution has been made joke

pie are prone to joke on all kinds OIL
subjects, without deep reflection.
Sending out free seeds should not be
discontinued simply because the people
Joke over the custom The precedent
thus established might logically result

The fact remains, however, that the
results attained by the free distribu-

liable and true seeds might be purchas-
ed OF any reliable scotsman at cents

more than it comes to. People buy
their seeds nowadays. Time Was when
seed houses were scarce and new var
tiles hard to obtain. Then the Gus

do on the witness stand what the law
yer is hired to do before the court
make or defend a case. Men without
deep special knowledge set up the pro-
fession Of expert and are ready TO
iuggle with human liberty or life for
price. Plainly the business of the eX-
pert witness has degenerated into a
graft.
Massachusetts legislature has be-
fore it a bill for the regulation of eX-
pert testimony which is worth the
study and attention of other common
wealths.
This bill provides, in brief, that I'M
less the court award a larger sum In
a. given case no expert witness shall
receive a larger sum for his services
than the ordinary witness fees; that
only three experts shall be allowed to
testify on either side upon the same
issue. except in cases of homicide, and
in the latter the court shall also APP
point one or more experts to investi-
gate and testify concerning issues re-
quiring expert knowledge and shall fix
their compensation, which is to be paid
nv the county where the Indictment
was found; and that these regulations
shall apply only to witnesses testify
ing to matters of opinion, as distinct
from generally accepted facts or de-
auctions Of science.
The testimony of true scientists and
nractical experts in any line of en-
deavor is always an aid and often
necessity to the administration Of JUS

most as much as elsewhere. What we
must not have is the suborned expert,

criminal lawyer, the master me-
chanic who makes his acknowledged
pre- eminence in his trade shield to
a corporation whose criminal greed

of human life. We must not have
