MEDICAL DEPARTMENT OP
U. OF O. "FAKE AND JOKE."
Portlmul Profession Dcclurcs tlie Sole
Object of Institution is to
Enrich Dr. Joseph!
PORTLAND, Or., -Deo. 17. -While
freely admitting that within the last
few years several thousand dollars
have been expended in improving the
Medical Department of the University
of Oregon, and that its standard of
excellence has risen appreciably,
leading memberB of the profession In
Portland declarethat for a lengthy
period Ahe institution' has been a
"fake" and a "joke." and that it has
always been and now is being con
ducted almost entirely in the finan
cial Interest of Dr. Simeon E. Joseph!,
manager and dean of the faculty, and
a few others.
Their contention Is that without a
state appropriation which will at
least permit the Institution to be
brought up to the standard of second-class
eastern medical colleges.
It Is useless, and that unless the
ygislature can be prevailed upon to
grant an appropriation of sufficient
size it should be abolished. To con
tinue the college longer under pres
ent conditions, It is maintained,
would be nothing more than an Impo
sition on the public, which is repre
sented as already suffering severely
because of the "palpable fraud"
which they allege Is perpetuated by
sending forth as practitioners a horde
of persons without the rudiments of
the medical and surgical knowledge
necessary for life-saving and health,
preserving work.
In this connection, it is pointed out
that the Medical Department of the
University of Oregon Is now under
the ban of the American Medical As
sociation, and that Ms name has been
expunged from the lists of this institution.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 17.
Snoopers in this city next week will
have the unique opportunity of buy
ing real live elephants, lions and
other denizens of the Jungle for
Christmas presents. This chance Is
afforded on account of the Involun
tary bankruptcy of the Norris &
Rowe Circus, which failed last week.
Tho liabilities of he firm are $57,
874. and the entire circus Is valued
) at 60,72B. For those who care to
make expensive gifts It Is announced
that the four elephants of the con
cern can be bought for $1500 each,
while those of more modest means
will have to be content with a laugh
lng hyena at $100 or a trick mule at
$50.
