LEGISLATURE of the State of Maine
goes on record. gentlemen. to the
effect that because YOU study in
different school from what we study,
although YOU pursue the same stud

schools. pursue them to the same

effect that no person could make n
mortgage or a deed unless he was an
attorney at law. What did the law
yers do in regard to that? Did they
do as the doctors are trying to do
today? Why. Mr.. President, l re-
member distinctly that l took the
floor and said it was outra geous.
that there were country squires in
the State of Maine that could make
a deed or a mortgage better than
l could and better than any young
man who had graduated from Har-
ward Law School or any other law
school. and l hoped the legal pro-
fession would not be so narrow as
to deprive them of that right. And
it was Overwhelmingly defeated in
this Legislature as it should have
been. Cannot the medical profession
of the State of Maine be as big and
broad? l have respect for every one
of them. They are doing their work
and they are doing their duty. If
the great medical profession cannot
stand the onslaughts of these differ
ent schools of healing that are COM
ing along. if they are not strong
enough within themselves to stand
under it, then they must pay the
penalty. But l believe they are
strong enough, / believe their teach
ings are wise. / believe their admin
istrations are right. I believe they
will survive and contlpile to do good
as in the past. But. gentlemen of
the Senate. give to every citizen of
the State the right to select whom
he pleases to administer to him
when he feels the need of attend
ance.
The PRESIDENTS: The question

by the senator from kenAebec. Mr..
Wadsworth. that the Senate recon-
slider the vote whereby it yesterday

ment No. III.
A viva voce vote was taken, and

cock. H. .. "a. an Act to amend

vised Statutes, relating to building

senator the vote was reconsidered
whereby this bill was passed to be
enacted and passed to be engrossed.
