COMMUNICATED
To Whom 1t May Concern:

A paper read ct the recent meeting
Of the North Dakota State Medical
association YVES reproduced in the pa
pers. The intention OF this article
seemed to he an attack on any method
of treating diseases of the human body
by other than those used and sanction
ed by the school of medicine which was
represented at this convention. The
terms irregular" and "illegal" were
used so loosely, and carelessly as to
cause one to doubt whether the user
was familiar with their definition.
1t would probably be unfair to &C.
cusc Dr.. Quain of such narrow mind
edness as to brand all schools Of medi-
cine other than his own as "irregular
and "illegal." Still the majority OF
people who read his article "What
Shall We Do With the Irregular Prac-
titioner9' might be mislead by his
/ al ClCSo OoS VI CuC NO4uos
The question then is what does he
mean by "irregular And why does
he use that word in the same breath
with "illcgal?' There is a vast diff
ference between the meaning Of these
two words. Wehster's Academic Die
tionary says that "irregular" means
"not conforming to general laws
methods, or USAGE History shows u
that the irregular methods and usages
with very few exceptions have proven
to our more advanced civilization t.
be nearer the truth than those adopte,
cut and dried.
The same dictionary gives the fol
lowing definition of "illegal: "no
according to law; unlawful; illicit; i'm
moral" Has it become unlawful an
immoral to improve or better method
used to benefit the human racef Tha
is the impression one would get from
reading the learned Doctor article a
it appeared in print.
So misleading has his statement bee
that few have though that the wor
irregular" could even be applied t
the Osteopathist school. That ma
not bother DR.. Quain to any great g,
tent, but there is grave danger tina
some might apply that same term t
l the Homeopathic, or to the Allopathi
school since many could not say
which of these the Doctor belongs.
he an Allopaths The American Med
cal Dictionary defines Alopathist q
: can incorrect designation for the rel
: ular practitioner And that in til
I face Of the fact that at present th
. Aropathic school is the one most
use.
Webster again tells us that Alop'
thy means Opposed to Homeopathy.
Then it naturally follows that Hon
eopathy is opposed to A1lopathy. !
| all fairness to the public the doctt
should explain which is what and whs
is which. And also tell US which sic
of the fence he is on, and whether /
is sure that the other side is the 81
regular and illegal' side. Let US hol
he will clear himself soon.

No Clue Found in
WOOnSOcket Murder.

Woonsocket, r. J.. June 26.-The Black
stone river was dragged, today. for the
head of the woman whose nude and de-
capitated body with the hands tied be
hind the back, was found in the river
near DANES Grove. yesterday. The po-
lice were still without any clue to the
mystery. The finding of automobile
tracks in the vicinity by Eugene Javobs.
who discovered the body. is accepted by
the police as strengthening their belief
that the woman did not belong here,
that the murder was committed else
where and the body taken here and
thrown into the river. with 50-pound
stone attached to weight 1t down. Queries
were sent to the police of the surround
ing cities and towns asking for informa-
tion regarding missing women. No wom-
an is known to be missing from this
city.
The police endeavored to establish
some connection between the headless
body and complete outfit of woman 5
clothing found five or six weeks ago
in a clump of bushes at the old ceme-
terry a mile from the place where the
body was found. Most of the clothing
had been sold to peddlers. but the au-
thorties secured several articles, in
Guiding a bloodstained handkerchief. A
report that a woman has been missing
for eight weeks was also Investigated.
