But we still have Jeft 120, about 100 ia excess of the actual requbements of the country, and nearly three fourths of which are schools merely in name as they require only two years of study, cr sather, to be strictiy ec- curate, attendance during two terms of a few months each.”

It is these 80 or 90 chartered medical shams that flood the country with half educated doctors ot medicine, nearly 5000 annually, the medical population increasing at the rate of 54 per cent., while the annual increase of the general population is less than two per cent. As tothe learning and intelligence of the average graduate f om these schovls, the most conciusive evidence is afforded by the results of examinations before the Sta‘e Boards already established.”

“The lust published report of the answers of some of the rejected candidates contain the following gems, which | know you will apre- ciate, even if the non-medical portion of my audience cannot gresp their siupendous absurdity: One embiyo neurelogist defined the curpus callosum 9s ‘that part of the dura mater which separates the cerebrum from the cerebellum.’ Another (who evidently did not know of Dr. Lerdy’s existence) said ‘The aortic makes its exit between the first and second ribs.’ ‘The Pesitoneum is a serious membrane extending into the chest and coverlog the heart and lungs.’ A third was of the opinion that ‘the boiling point of lah- renheit is about 300 deg., and that when phosphorous burns it makes nitrogen gas.’ (imagine the effect of those answers on Prof, Waormley !) Others said that the normal tem- perature of the human body is from 112 deg. to 140 deg., and the normal respiration 70 per minute’; that ‘there are 16 ounces to the pound in apothecarys weight,’ that ‘coxalgia is an inflammation of the cocey, ‘Ranula a disease of the eye,’ ‘Scarlatiua an eruption of the head,’ that ‘acupressure was made with the finger or any other instrument,’ that ‘the technical name of rhubard was Columbo,’ and that ‘“‘Dengue or break bone fever was a fever that comes on soon after the bones are broken.’ The list might be extended indeti- nitely, but 1 have given you enough examples. What I desire to impress upon you is the tact that each of these grossly and densely ignor- ant appiicants held a Diploma from a legally- constituted medical college, and that although they wete, of course, ali rejected in the State in which they made their application, they can come and do come, here, and by comply- ing with a slipshod, inefficient and easily- evaded registration law, can take charge of the health and the lives of the people of the great State of Pennsylvania,

‘Is any fuller evidence needed {as to the ad- vantage to the community which would result from the establishment of a State Board of Examiners ?

“The right of the State to take such a step is practically unquestioned. An unbroken line of authorities have held that the legis- lative bodies of any country may exercise such police powers as are co-exteusive with the natural right of self-protection. It is more than a right, it is the duty of the State to take such action.

’ “The argument is a brief and simple one. It is the duty of the State to demand, in the case of the death of each of its citizens, suffi- cient evidence that the death really occurred, aud that it was due to natural causes. This evidence is required not only to guard the lives of citizens, but to protect the rights of property in its transmission by inheritance, and to prevent fraud or crime.

In the great majority of cases, such evi- dence must be a physician’s, certificate, and the State should, therefore, ia its turn, possess satisfactory prof that the siguer of such a certificate is competent to judge in the matters conceruing which his evidence is to be taken We have seen, incontrovertibly, that the possession of a degree of M. D. is not such proof,

**Therefure, the State should, in its own in- terests, require each man who proposes to en- ter a profession so closely connected with the lives, health and happiness of its citizens, to be examined by a State Board. Such exam- ination should include the fnndamental ele- ments of nedicine which are not only accepted by the regular profession, but cannot be denied by any schools or sects—as chemistry, anatomy, physiology, pathology, hygiene, diagnosis, practical midwifery and operative surgery.

“If there is any flaw in the chain of reason- ing which, based on the existing evidence of dangerous ignorance ia a large portion of the graduates of our colleges, leads us to the ad- vocacy of such examining boards, I am unable to detect it. The University of rennsylvania is on record, through the action of the pro- vost and many of the faculty, as earnestly demanding not only such a bill, but, in ads dition, the compulsory establishment of a fourth year in every medical college in the State,” etc., etc.

It is to be hoped that the people of Prince Edward Island will read the foregoing ex- tracts carefully, and see the necessity of hav- ing a good law in this Province. Quacks of the wost barefaced quality come here and fleece the people and guli the Province of thousands of dollars. The people and the Legislature must support the hands of the Prince Kdward Island Medical Council in their efforts to regulate the education and the conduct of the members of what should be an honorable profession. +9
