Dr. Schultx I Answrd.
GLADSTONE, ORKOON, Nov. 20.
(Kill tor of the Enterprise.) I must
beg pardon of my friend, tho good Dr.
Hchultze, for my delayed answer. The
Enterprise containing his article fail
ed to appear In the Gladstone office.
tin Haturday on my way to the south
ern end of the county I called at the
Enterprise office for a copy of this
paper und here Is to you my old
iricnri.
Un October 5, 1913, you hnd an ar
ticle in tne Enterprise making a num
ber of chnrges against me In relation
lo tho health officer's removal and the
nppolntment of the new man. That
article of October 5th was answered
In the Enterprise In less than a week,
now after waiting more than a month
you come sneaking In and begin your
article with the assumption that bo
cause these things were published In
the Courier you did not rend them
and was not aware of their existence
until a "friend" called your attention
to them. Now Doctor this is certainly
refreshing. Within one week of your
article of October Cth my answer ap
peared In tho same paper the Enter
prise. Please get a copy of that pa
pT and read It. Now In this your lat
est production you say: "The matter
Is of no personal Interest to myself
whatever." Will you tell mo please
why you made so many false state
ments In your former article coupled
with the positive assertion that "you
wanted to place the fact quarely be
fore the people?" And that you "de
fended your brother physicians"?
Your statement are the rhlldren of
your bralu. Will you now stiaim-rutly
desert them? It wa only a few
week ago when you told u t ml
for the sterlllMtlon act, hctituse, as
you stated "It would not be right to let
certain people bring children Into the
world to become a burden to the rrsl
of hiimsiilly." And now you who ap
peared on the scene announcing your
self a Ihe defender of your tiruthcr
physician, you who 'tVi-Uri'd you
wanted lo "place lhrV squarely
before thn people," y'ryjho nmde as
sertion which you tist wer "tli
fncts", are you going ro turn tall and
quit? Are you going to desert the
rhlldren of your own brain? Did you
bring THESE children (your sists-
menlai Into the world anil thru let
them become a burden to Dr Norrii?
I he willing to adopt your produc
tions? I placed a romplulnl ixalntt

those prectedlng.
Dr. Norrls was present at hi In
