DOCTORS IN VERBAL WARl
DR. R. C. COFFEY ATTACKED IX
MEDICAL SENTINEL.
Other Physicians Say br. H. W. Coe,,
' Editor, Fears That He Will Lose
Paying Publication.
Epithets fly thick and fast in the current
: Issue of the Medical-Sentinel. There is a
lull broadaide. directed for the most part
at Dr. R. Coffey, former president of
the Ore'son -Medical Association. The at
' tack is made by Dr. H. VTJ Coe. . And
while Dr. Coffey declines to mane any re
ply, further, than to say the assault of
words is beneath hia notice, there is not
a. little comment pro and con in the local
medical world.
It is charged directly that Dr. Coe. is
.ii.mMin. in nhscure the real issue in
he efforts of Dr. Ooffey and other phy
eicians to have the Pacific Coast medical
publications taken over by the medical
societies of Oregon, Washington and
Idaho, thus putting them out as official
papers. It is urged that Dr. Coe has a
mint in the Medical Sentinel and naturally
does not wish to part with" the property.
"Dr. Coe's attack on Dr. Coffey grows
out of this plan to take over the publi
cations." said a well-known physician
last night. "It Is a case of much ado
about nothing. Something has been pub
lished about all Portland physicians
being worked up in the matter. The only
man really aroused is Dr. Coe. His ar
ticles will not be answerea. i mm ui.
. Coffey's friends understand."
The article in question is not a direct
attack. It wends its way over several
columns of Innuendo, sarcasm and veiled
accusations. It refers In sarcastic vein to
Dr Coffey's experimental dissection of
' guinea pigs, of his profuse writing of
technical papers, of the numerous color
prints for these papers prepared by a
upeclal artist. It suggests that much of
Dr. Coffey's scientific worlt Is purely spec
tacular and Intimates that he plagiarised
his Ideas, dressing them up with irrele
vant additions. Commercial ism of a most
unscientific character, surgery as a trade,
are two of the phrases used by Dr. Coe.
Extract from the article follow:
The claim is made that much of the
so-culled scientific work done, by Dr.
Coffey is purely spectacular. As an evl
ctanca of tola view, attention is called by
critics to the fact that of the vast amount
of printed matter emanating from his pub
licity bureau, in 10.000 lots, the vast pro
portion is rehash from other writers, with
additions of immaterial value.
"The claim is also made that the 10.000
reprints from his works are not an evi
dence of high-class scientific attainments,
but of a commercialism of the most un
scientific character. That the publicity
room savors more of a patent medicine
Joint than of a high-class medical man,
such as the president of the State Med
ical Society should be."
It is also set out in the article that Dr.
Coffey wasselected as president of the
state association on a slate prepared at
the annual meeting a year ago at Sea
side, and that only his friends get position
on the programme at annual meetings. It
is charged that the doctor divides fees
with other doctors who send him work,
and refers to a "Ccffey Congress," which
has for its membership Dr. Coffey, Dr.
W. T. Williamson, Dr. Joseph Sternberg,
Dr. Ray Matson, Dr. N. W. Jones and Dr.
Gustav Baar. These doctors are pro
Coffey first, last and all the time, it is
intimated.
Reference Is also made to the last meet
ing of the state organization, and it is
charged that an effort was made to "syn
dicate" the session, the clans working
for various ends. - This, It is pointed out
by other doctors, is the real sore spot, as
the Oregon Association reported favorably
on the proposition of having an official
Journal issued, and the matter has been
passed along to the Washington Associa
tion for its indorsement at the annual
meeting to be held at Walla Walla this
month. Dr. Coffey declined to talk about
the case last night and Dr. Coe was out
of the city. He is known to have saUfc
that there would be more Heated litera
ture in the September issue of his publi
cation and that is being awaited with interest.

OFFICERS ON TEST RIDE
CAXBY AND M'lXDOE START
. FOR AMERICAN IAKE.
FRANK L. SMITH MEAT CO
Xo Failures to Meet Endurance Re
quirement Reported In De
partment of Columbia.
Major James Canby, paymaster Depart
ment of the Columbia, and Major J. F.
Mclndoe, Engineer Corps, U. S. A, have
left their Portland station for American
Lake to make the annual test ride for
Army officers abqve the grade of captain.
These two officers are now in the saddle
reeling off some 30 miles a day.
In accordance with Army requirements
they will have to ride 90 miles in three
days, five and a half hours in the saddle
each day. In order to do this they will
have to maintain the average gait of a
brisk trot. Posting isn't considered good
form in the American Army.velther, and
In making the ride they will have to
settle down in their McClellan or Whit
man saddles and take the Jolting as it
comes.
The annual ride Is part of the physical
examination for Majors. Lieutenant-Colonels.
Colonels, Brigadier-Generals and
Major-Generals. Captains and Lieuten
ants have to take a physical examination,
but not the ride. The senior officers are
examined before the ride. After it is
ended they are examined a second time,
the effect of the experience being noted
on heart, lungs, liver, stomach and the
physical make-up generally. : Any officer
who is overcome by the. experience is
placed on the retired list.
All Majors and Colonels of the Depart
ment of the Columbia at the various sta
tions have already made the ride, with
the exception of Majors Canby and Mc
lndoe, who are now out. Not a single
failure to complete the test in good con
dition is reported.
