Penitentiary Was "For Rent"

Early risers who passed the front
entrance Of the p~enitentiary the other
morning were surprised to see hanging
on the front door Of the prison a large
tin sign which bore the following in
scription:
For rent. Apply Within
1t was difficult to believe that Mary
land had become so good within the
last few days hat the states main
house of reformation had become sud-
denly preempted. It was difficult also
to understand the meaning of the
sign. The "pen" is a place of great
dimensions, and it would take a for
tune Of equal size to buy it.
1t was a puzzle until one of the
deputy wardens came out and took
that sign away. Then the people un-
derstood. Some of the young men in

In a letter to Nature, A. A. Camp

found an iron bedstead with wire mat
tress on the fourth floor of his house
in London to be quite effective as an

nails. By connecting the receiving ap-
pa~ratus, which includes a Brown re-

admiralty signals loudly, and others
quite audibly, including the time sig

Several weeks ago we called atten-
tion to a letter from a physician in
which, although these are not the
exact words in which he expressed
his thought, he boasted somewhat of
the fact that certain other physi-
clan had been elected to the legis-
lature of his state solely because he
was physician and would use his
position as legislator to further the
interests of his colleagues in their ef-
forts to prevent the people from en-
ploying any method of healing other
than that which they dealt in. He
also told how his physician was paid
by his professional brethren for his
work in their behalf while serving in
the legislature.
At this point it is perhaps par
donable and pertinent question
whether or not such practices come
dangerously near that which many of
the states have tried to prohibit
through the corrupt practices laws
which they have adopted, and whether
or not these practices justify the edi-
torial statement of the Albuquerque
On. NJ Journal that doctors should
not be sent to the legislature, be-
ccuse in practically all instances they
cease to be Representatives of their
constituents and become representa-
tives of the medical fraternity"
In another editorial the Journal
calls attention to bill, now pending
in the New Mexico legislature, which
the physicians which are urging its
passage say will not interfere with
the practice by Christian Scientists;
that it will merely subject them to
regulation" This regulation, accord
ing to the Journal, would consist of
a four-years' course at an orthdox
medical school, diploma from the
same and an examination by board
of hostile physicians" It should be
borne in mind. however, that the pub
lie is not asking for such drastic leg
islation, and that the reason given by
the doctors in their trade journals
for its advocacy is that their oWn
financial, interests demand laws
which, speaking plainly. will give
them trade monopoly. This is pre-
cisely the same course which in the
past has been pursued by large cor
porate Interests lin THE commercial
field, and has led to the politica
