The two ‘donated by rds of that institution, ius Eckloff and Nicholas Dr. Burnett’s Appeal for Government Regulation of Medical Practice. In a recent public address Dr. Swan M. Burnett, the president of the Medical Society of the District, touched upon the subject of a higher test for ad jion to the medical pro- fession, “It is mainly,” he said, “because we are hampered by too much freedom—if we may use a paradox—that we have not ap- proached more nearly to our own ideal in this country. The responsibility of medical practice is made, by law, too easy of acquirement, and thus pretention, arrogance, ignorance and as- sumption have equal chances in the race with ability, modesty and scientific acquirement. So long as the laws made by your represen- tatives render it @ possibility for an M.D. to be mianafactured after two short courses of lectures, and often very poor ones at that, and so long as it is not illegal for any pre- sumptuous ignoramus toassame. unchallenged, the title of doctor, and can ply his arts and artifices in opposition to the properly qualified physician and surgeon, so long must the com- munity be responsible for an opprobrium which rests upon the medical profession, as a mass, in this country, as it does in no other civilized nation on earth THE NATION Ri 3PONSIBLE. “The American nation, as a people, are re- sponsible for the conditions which make it possible for German medical institutions to refuse to recognize the diplomas from any medical college in the United States. Not that some of these are not as good and efficient as are to be found anywhere, but because the la of the land recognize and authorize the in- numerable diploma mills all over the country which turn out wholesale and with totdl dis- regard of qualification any and all sorts of the genus doctor. It is your duty to change all that. It is your duty, through your represen- tatives in legislatures and Congress, to protect yourselves and aliberal and cultured profes- sion against charlatanry, ignorance and im- posture, This protection is certainly a legiti- mate province of government if it have one. A REMEDY. “Before a man is allowed to assume the func- tion of a physician or surgeon let him be com- pelled to furnish the evidence of his qualifica- tion by a successful examination before a board of competent men, selected by the gov- erning powers, and who have no interest, per- sonal or pecuniary, in the result of that exam- ination, No reputable medical college in the country is opposed to this, and we, of George- town College, are not afraid to meet such a test of our teaching. With a bill embodying these features now Lefore Congress, it is your evident duty as good citizens, for your own protection and ours, to see that it is passed—and yassed promptly and enforced, “See to it that the study of anatomy—the foundation of surgery and the handmaid of medical practice—is made possible in this Dis- trict without the possibility of the stigma of crime being attached to it,’ Give usan anat- omy act—such as is in force, I believe, in every state in the Union, and certainly in every one where medical teaching iscarried on to any ex- tent—which shall give asense of security to the community as to the undisturbed repose of their lost loved ones, and make the pursuit of necessary knowledge not liable to punishment by fine and imprisonment. The absence of such a law on the statute books of this District you should see rectified at once and for your own sakes, for, depend upon it, the doctor has no interests which are uot shared by the com- munity in which he lives and labors.” FIGHT HOURS A DAY. The Federation of Labor Protest in Be- half of District Workmen, The Federation of Labor has adopted reso- lutions in reference to the statements made by the District Commissioners in answer to a Senate resolution that many laborers em- ployed by the District work more than sight hours per day, and that no law regulates the hours of labor and rate of wages, because the ordinances of Washington relating thereto “expired” when the charter of that city was revoked. ‘The federation protests “against the right of the Commissioners to determine according to their wishes which of the ordinances of Wash- ington and Georgetown have ‘éxpired’ and which have not. inasmuch as all of them were expressly continued im force by the act cre- ating the present form of government,” and demands the enforcement of the ordinances of Washington fixing eight hours as « day’s labor and $2 as a day’s pay for laborers employed in the city of Washington. . The resolutions re- quest the Commissioners, in the exercise of their discretionary power in the absence of any law, to direct that eight hours shall be a day's work for public laborers in all parts of the Dis- trict and that the wages shall be the same as in the city of Washington. It is resolved also “that in view of the secur- ing of nine aud eight hours of labor per day by nearly all mechanics throughout the country, the national, state and municipal eight-hour laws so generally enacted, and the need for and advantages of a shorter work day now so universally acknowledged, our public officials should in every practicable way, to the full limits of their powers, aid and ¢ncourage the establishment of an eight-hour work day.” In reference to the ‘Commissioners’ state- ment ‘that laborers employed by the District are paid lower — in the county than in the city, and that the low rate of $1.25 per da} ‘was fixed to meet the wishes of farmers an: truck gardeners,’ who feared they could not hire labor cheaply if the District paid city wages,” the federation, by resolution, denounce the action as an outrage that could never have been perpetrated macommunity where the laborers avoice in the management of public affairs, and ask the Commissioners to correct the wrong done by their by paying the same rate of wages in the county as in the city, ee ase Vatuaste Rest Estarz at Auctiox.—At- tention is called to the sale b; y Wheeler and C! trustees, desirable unimproved real estate at the northwest corner of Rand 2ist streets northwest,to take to morrow, June 27, at 5 o'clock = Ts fashionable on of the west and is an excellent for a first- class investment.

Hot Work forthe Firemen. A little after 10 o'clock this morning an alarm of fire was turned in for a blaze in « small two-story brick house, No. 506 13th street. The fire department responded at once, and engines No. 2, 1, 6 and 7 and truck B were promptly on hand and succeeded in putting out the fire before it had done very much damage, The house had a shingle roof and that was completely destroyed, but as the house was unoccupied the water ‘did little or no damage. The origin of the fire is unknown, but it was probably caused by sparks from an adjoining chimney falling pon the hot dry shingles. s Just as the firemen had succeeded in extin- guishing the first blaze a second alarm was rung fora fire on 25th street near M. The firemen did some very pretty work in getting ready to leave the one fire and going to the other, and no time at all was lost.

The senior four-oared gig race, in which the Columbias, the Vespers of Philadelphia and the Ariels of Baitimore had crews entered, was won easily by the Vespers in 9.22, In the senior fours the Ariels and Potomacs had crews, The Potomac’s shell was manned by L.

The three other crews then started, the Vespers securing the lead, which they held until within 300 yards of the finish, when the Columbias spurted magnificently and went to the front, winning by a length in 8.20.
