profession is growing less remunera-
tive each year. fact recognized by
leading economists, and suggests an
organization to labor to improve con

The writer states that patients not
only grow fewer but there is a grow
ing tendency on their part to look
upon the doctors work as altruistic
and to think he does not strive for
or need sustenance
This is an undesirable condition.

INVOLUNTARY GUESTS

Put yourself in his place" is a
good motto. Let us suppose that the
papers this morning contain a story
of an American ship wrecked off the
coast of japan. The survivors, after
fearful hardships, get ashore and are
at once arrested and thrown into
prison. How all the country would
resound with denunciations of the
brutality OF the orientals. The vel.
low journals would call on the pres.
ident of the United States to let lose
the dogs of war without waiting for
explanations.
Such q story was printed recently
only the unfortunates happened to
be little brown men. This is the
tale. Blown off the coast of Japan
by a typhoon current and trade wind
and swept more than 1000 miles
across the Pacific, the junk Sumyo.

Japanese through winters cold, sum.
mer heat and storm, until its water
logged hull began sinking, and its
sails flew in shreds on the southern
California coast near Ensnitas, 80
miles north of San Diego.
These poor japanese are now feder-
al prisoners in San Diego Jail. Their
ship is gone; they cannot be driven
back to it to face the perils Of the
deep. In saving their lives they vio-
lated our immigration laws, but it
is absurd that they should be thrown
into prison under the circumstances.
When sucn thing is possible the
law is indeed an ass. OF course, they
will be finally sent home in comfort
but when you put yourself in his
place." the story does not read well.

September 7, 1900, the speech which
Theodore Roosevelt, then candidate
for vice-president on the Republican
ticket, as running mate with Presi-
dent William Mckinley, made in
Saginaw on thai date. The advice
then given to Republicans to let well
enough alone and to retain in Office
the man under whose administration
the country had achieved great pros
perity, is good enough for Republi-
cans now. 1t was expressed in the
following words:
The issue of the campaign is con
tanned in that second placard there

Hold up that banner Let Well

is Old Man Goodenough and 1t is
