perts, and that in consequence these
expert were more or less looked up.
on and acted as partisans. AS a
remedy for this, the doctor suggested
that medical experts should be ap-
pointed by the court to assist the
court in cases in which medico-legal
questions )weae involved, and that
such experts should be officers of the
court instead of being hired by the
parties to the suit.
The doctor further stated that law
| yers were frequently blamed for lead
! ing their clients into expensive law
| proceedings, and that doctors were
equally blamed for useless and ex-
pensive operations for the sake of
pecuniary gain. AS a matter of fact,
he said that law suits were oftener
the result of the clients desire for
the notriety attached to such proceed
ings, and that surgical operations
sisted upon them.
The doctor also talked of the me-
cessity of higher education and also
higher standards in both professions.
He said that in every community
there were near lawyers and near
doctors. If the former banded to.
gether and demanded legislation, re-
cognizing them as regular attorneys,
no Legislature would be likely to pass
such a bill, or if the legislature did,
no governor of state with proper re.
ty and lives Of the people would ap-
prove of such law. Near doctors,
however, have been more successful in
this state as the last legislature pass
ed law giving men who had no medi-
cal training the same right to prac-
tice medicine as medical practitioners
who had taken a full course in a med
ical college, graduated and passed the
necessary examination for a license
to practice in the state On the final
passage of the law twelve attorneys,
members of the legislature, voted, and
six of them voted in favor of the bill.
On motion of Judge Knauff of
jamestown, the doctors paper was or

The balance of the afternoon was
devoted to extemporaneous remarks
from a number of the members. The

afternoon.

pointed out the work that the associa-
ton might accomplish through it's ef-
forts. He was warmly applauded at
the conclusion of his remarks.
DR.. F. R. Smyth of Bismarck then
submitted paper on "Analogies and
Anomalies of Law and Medicine" His
address was splendid one and the
doctor received many warm congrat-
ulations on his paper.
DR.. Smyth spoke of the disrepute
that had been brot on the medical pro-
fession by expert medical testimony.
He said that this was due in a great
measure to the practice of each liti-
giant hiring their own medical ex-

Will Be Plenty
Of Farmers,

Judge Wltten is not worrying
about the settlement of the res
erVatlon country. He says if
the people who have drawn num-
bers do not take the farms there
are thousands of others who will.
Within a year from now,"
said the judge, you will see
that every good farm in that
country which was opened up a
a year ago. will be occupied by a
homesteader who is in earnest
about making his home on the
land and developing the country.
There is no need to worry
because only about one third of
the first $4,000 numbers drawn
filed. If there are any claims
left after the 10, 900 names are
called beginning September /,
there are still more people who
want some of this land.
For the last two or three
months | have been receiving on
an average of fifty letters daily
asking how homes can be obtain
ed in the Missouri country, and
so you see the interest among
real settlers is not waning. The
quicker we weed out the people
who registered and drew only to
try their luck the better. What
yCu want and what the state and
government wants is a class of
men and women who will settle
up the country"
Judge Witten says that the re-
naming portions Of the reserva-
ton which are to be opened next
year will be distributed after the
same plan which was followed
in this city registration and
drawing. He believes that this
is the most practical system, ex-
cept that he would add a forfeit
of $1O0 against any person who
registered and refused to settle
upon a claim holding a number
below the stipulated limit which
would be the total of good farms
in the tract
He is very much against the
proposed idea which was urged
in congress when the land bills
were discussed. This was to
permit registration by anyone at
any point upon payment of
twenty-five cents. Such a sys-
tenn he believes would bring a
flood of at least 5000, 900 names
of which not more than one in
500 would accept a claim. Such
a system would rouse the gambl-
| ing instinct of every thoughtless
person in the country and at the
cost Of a quarter he would take
a chance" in the hope that he
might get No. 1.-Aberdeen
American.

More Land News

In view of the many conflict
reports that have been circulated
as to the status of public land
claimants in this district under
the coal land withdrawal order
OF July 7th, 1910, and to correct
the erroneous impression that
the local land officers are author
lied to issue final certificates to
final proof claimants in every in
stance where the coal rights are
waived by signing the Right of
Election to take surface patent,
attention is called to the follow
ing:
The local office is authorized
to issue final certifi C a t e S
on final proofs s u b m t t e d
after the withdrawal order
where said proofs are still
in the local office, right OF elec.
ton being filed herewith, and
the proof otherwise showing a
compliance with the law. 1t
will be clearly seen from the
following telegram that on
proofs submitted subsequent to
the withdrawal order and trans
mitted to the Department at
Washington for action, that the
local officers are without means
of knowing what the proof con-
tains, and cannot issue certifi-

From now on, however, prompt
action can be taken on current
proofs and entrymen submitting
valid proofs, and executing the

certificates.
Much credit is due w. B. New

ings to the local Office, and by

pedited the relief order. Mr..
Newman stated that the Regis
ter and Receiver were handling
applications and proofs strictly
in accordance with the With
drawal order, and that the local
officers were in no way charge
able for the delay in the issuance
of certificates, but that on the
contrary he found that the Reg
lister and Receiver had at no
time since the receipt of said

to accept filings, entries or APP
plications to set proofs, although
same had to be suspended un-
til right of elections were filed.
