Senator Mason Says He W; c id Not Go Into cus With Such a Man. “TI will not go into a caucus with any al- leged republican elected senator from Ohio by democratic votes,” said Senator Mason of Illinois, talking to a Star reporter about the situation in the buckeye state. “To accept such a man in a republican caucus would be to put a price on treachery.” Then the Illinois senator denounced in un- measured terms the opposition to Senator Hanna, Senator Mason is understood to be one of a number of republican senators who have deciared that they would not accept a re- publican from Ohio into a republican cau- cus except one elected by republican votes. Not only is this true, but the man who Succeeds Senator Hanna by democratic votes will have a thorny road to travel in the Senate. He will, it is declared, be per- sonally received in the coldest manner by the republicans of that body and will be ignored as much as possibie. “In other words,” said a senator, “he will be polit- ically dead before he reaches this body, and in the most quiet manner we will assist at the burial. I do not believe any man can accept an election under circumstances im- minent in Ohio and haye a politieal future worth a penn; Senator Mason once declined an election to the United States Senate under ci stances similar to those in Ohio. Every politician will recall the famous struggle in the Illinois legislature between Geni Logan and Colonel Morrison. It s the most historic contests for the Unit States Senate in the history of the politics of the United States. The republicans had a majority of one on joint ballot, but Chicago republican refused to vote for ( eral Logan, the republican nominee for s ator.

It is not possible for the citizen to determine for himself the ability of those ‘sons who hold themselves forth as phy- sicians, except by submitting to their care his own life and well-being of those he holds dear; and the poor and ignorant among whom quackery and fraud find their : t victims are easily duped by the word of the charlatan, even while suffering from the loss of means and possi-+ bly loved ones at his hands. “Aside, however, from such personal con- siderations, the community is very much interested in the skill of physicians p ticing in its midst, by reason of the crease in the d spread of con- tagious diseases when under the care of in- competent medical attendants. There is every reason why the government should require a certain degree of education and skill on the part of those who hold them- selves out to the public as physicians. Sim- ilar reasons have led to the passage of laws requiring evidence of competence on the part of steam engineers, plumbers, ele- vator operators, druggists and lawyers. re- there are in eve: sulating the pi There is, in my judgment, absolutely noth- ing to be said in favor of the bill.” Se ees ACCEPTED THE BILL.
