The Legal Standing
Of Osteopathy
Since November 1896, when the first
legsl recognition of Otteopathy as a
distinct school of therapeutics wis
effected in Vermont, nearly two thirds
of the States and Territories of the
Union have regulated its practice either
b legislative enactment or court de-
cisiona. No other school of medicine
can present such a record of growth and
popularity, rule fact should be a
sufficient guarantee of merit to lead all
suffering from disease to investigate at
least tbe principles of this new contest
ant in the field ol therapeutics. The
success achieved, however, has not been
won without sharp battles and good
generalship.
In the matter of examinations, seven
States are on an independent basis,
Arkansas, California, Connecticut,
Michigan, Mit souri, Montana and Okla
homa having State Osteopathic Boaids
of Examination and Registration ; while
in Iowa, Kansas, Ohio, Wisconsin and
Kentucky the four schools allopathic,
homeopathic, electle and Osteopathic
are represented on the Slate Board of
Medical Examiners. The law In Ten
neste, North Dakota, South Dakota,
Ncbiaska, and New Mexico requires the
registration of the diploma only of the
regularly graduated Osteopathic phy
sieian.
The usual medical laws relative to ex
amination aud certification obtain -in
Alabama, Arizona, Illinois, Indiana,
Iowa, Kansas, Ohio, Nortb Caiohna,
Virginia and Wisconsin, the principles
and practice of Osteopathy being aub
siiuued, in most cases, for materia
niedlca and surgery.
The cuurta of Pennsylvania, New
Jersey, Mississippi, Utah, Colorado,
West Virginia, North Carolina, and
Kentucky have ruled that the medical
laws In force do not apply to the
practice of Oitropaihy, inasmuch as
Osteopathio physicians administer no
drugs, or medicines, of any kind, neither
perform operations in surgery.
In Texas the medical law especially
exempts Osteopathic practice from iu
provisions; While In Vermont this etat
us is secured by special enactment.
In every case, the candidate niUBt be
a graduate of a reputable Osteopathic
college, of wliloli there are now ten
wherein "the course of Btudy and re.
quiremeute are in advance of that which
prevailed In medk al colleges when the
majority of tbe M. D.'e now practicing
received their education."
And the standard for graduation
steadily advancing. Beginning with
September, It 04, all Osteopathic collegi
must tench a cirrhuluiu of, at least,
three years of nine months each, to en
title their graduates to membership in
the American Osteopathic Association,
which standard will be quite equal to
the minimum time requirements of the
American Medical Association.
