After our famous Fourth of July wrestling fiasco here The Bee spoke its mind on the subject of “spoiling thd sport game” without mincing words, and we take it what ave then said wquld be peculiarly exprés- sive of feelings engendered by the sorcalled “wrestling bout” at the State fair, Perhaps the fleudence is due to numerous c'aul_es. but chief among these cauises is unquestionably the profes- sional promotion that makes the contest wholly a matter of gate receipts. If ‘the admission money all went to charity, except enough to buy a medal for the winner, it would be different. S———— Recall of Pershing's Army. | The Mexican 'commissioners, now conferring at New London with American repre¢sentatives as to the border relations between the two countires, will “respectfully ask that the United' States at once withdraw its forces from Mexican serritory... This quite/reasonable suggestion will doubtless be !omph’ed with, and thus will end another of the little wars in which we have engaged with Mexico, while' “watchfully waiting” for one or another of the bands of banditti to assume definite control, Like the Vera Cruz expedition, the Pershing invasion started with a great flourish of! em—— ' Seven cities drew distinction from a Homer dead.

Omaha, Sept. 8~—To the Editor of The Bee: Before doing arfything in the direction of medical inspection in the public schools it would ba well for those who are agitating this ques- tion to considem carefully what 1t means before goimg blindly forward because someone has said it is a good thing. ? Let it be known that {he American Medical \affoejation, an . organization composed almost entfrely of allopath- ic doctors, is the principal influence advancing plans for various health (?) legislatidn, - Anyone .who cares to investigate through the periodicals, and other methods used to make " known the desines of this organiza- °| tion will observé the®following pro- gram: 1. The desire to establish a federal bureau of health which shall be-dom- inated by the aboveyasseciation and have plenary powers to enforce its views. See bills now filed in. con-. gress, | g ¢ 2. The desire to.control all boards of health, state and municipal. . To have medical colleges oper- ated by the state where the methods pf the allopathic system alone shall be taught, to 'the, entire exclusion of any other system of healing. Medical inspection of the pub- lic schools, which, by virtue of state recognition, would .eventually pass under the control of the above ergani- zation, for the: purpose of educating children to the vibws of the allo- pathic physician, regardless of the desires of the parenty. AT It is easy to understand how those who advocate the above program have visions of eventual compulsory treatment according to the standard recognized by the statd, negatdless of the achievements of other systems of - healing, or the intended constitutional rights of the citizenry.’, Those who through fear, or without investiga- tion, to the ‘extent of indorsing this scheme, are” only seeking to deprive themselves of the individual right to exercise their,own judgment in the choice of healing methbds. = Recently the price of a certgin ce- real showed a utarked advance in one day, . and presently the market showed a decline fully as rapid, Thus we recognize wherein the “insiders,” “through sthe familiar process of ex- citing reports operating on the fears of the gyninformed, ‘have again “sheared the lambs.” I.{et uc so guard the inherent rights of every citizen that we shall not be charged in the language used,by the great showman, Mr. P.
