Eugene, Oregon DOCTORS AND ADVERTISIBG The Lane county phycicians have passed resolutions dis countenancing all kinds of advertising in the newspapers, even' to the mention of a physician’s or surgeon’s name in connection with an operation or case of illness. Nobody outside of the pro fession can reasonably object to this action on the part of the association, since it is assumed that the extremely modest and retiring members thereof know what they want, or, in this case, what they don’t warft, and it really concerns the public very little. Duly apologizing for “butting in” The Guard recalls an article on the subject printed in an exchange some time ago in which it was asserted that the strictly “ethical’’ physician is the only business man who deems it disgraceful to advertise what he has for sale. He has skill and professional knowledge in stock, but he refuses to inform the public of the fact. How long would any other business last if it were conducted on that principle? To relinquish the advantages of advertising to the so-called “quacks” is merely to give the specialists the tremendous ben efits derived from judicious publicity. In nearly all other lines of business than medicine there is the keenest rivalry in the matter of advertising. In that profession men reprehend what nearly all other business men deem vital in the conduct of their business. It is encouraging to note that there are signs of an awaken ing even among the “ethical” physicians in other cities. In his address before the Illinois Medical Society at Rockford, Dr. Percy, of Galesburg, the president, recognized the situation. “We must change our attitude toward the public on the sub ject of advertising,” he said. “The irregn’ars use the press ex tensively, and they educate the public to the injury of all real scientific advance. We must use the same means to forward the true aims and objects of science.” Dr. Percy, in short, does not believe that it is wise to leave the devil in control of the good music. , When his confreres make up their minds to accept and ex emplify his views there will be less talk of “advertising quacks.” When advertising ceases to be stigmatized as quackery—which it is not—physicians will employ the same mediums of publicity that are used by other men and will profit by them. FAME IS TRANSITORY It is not pleasant to contemplate the evanescence of fame. It makes one shudder to think of the sacrilege of grinding the mummey of some ancient Egyptian king into powder to be used as a pigment or Caesar's body, “turned to clay,” used to close a bunghole. It gives a shock to one's bump of reverence to see a gown that once adorned some world-famous queen dragged over the rough boards of a stage by some cheap actress. The sale of a great man s personal effects is sadder and more de pressing than his funeral. Sentimentalism is not a prominent American characteristic. A peat man may die, his death may mean a great loss to the country or to the world in general, but beyond the passing of memorial resolutions and more or less pomp displayed at his funeral, the American public pays no further tribute to his mem ory. In some cases a monument is erected “in honor'' of the great departed, provided he had been a general, a governor or a distinguished politician. Little else counts and even in such cases the erection of a monument is considered compensation in full for everything of merit the deceased may have done for his country. The other day the personal effects of Edwin Booth, includ ing a large quantity of stage costumes which he had worn during his long and honorable career, were sold at auction in one of the fashionable auction rooms on Fifth avenue. New oYrk City. The things were sold by order of Mrs. Edwina Booth-Grossman, the daughter of Edwin Booth, who probably needed ready cash more than a lot of old costumes and still older bric-a-brac, the princi pal value of which consisted in the intimate association with her great and lamented father. Mrs. Grossman may not be to blame for this apparent lack of filial veneration for her father s mem ory, yet the idea of the auction sale is shocking and repulsive to finer sensibilities. “Sic transit gloria mundi." PLAY THE GAME AT HOME The University faculty is right in demanding that the annual U. of O.-O. A. C. game be played on the campus of the respec tive colleges. While either team might with propriety and to its financial advantage meet the Idaho and Washington teams on the Portland field, pride in the two big state institutions and the cities they are located in should demand the playing of the one really great game on the college campus. To take it to Port land merely for the purpose of swelling the gate receipts is sure in time to be detrimental to the student body spirit, and further more the gambling instinct is given full sway, as was the case in the late game at Portland, where the students and their friends, backing the losing team, lost heavily, much of it ot the “profes sional" gamblers of the city. On the college campus this evil may be curbed and reduced to the minimum, as it most certain ly should be. However, the Corvallis sentiment seems to be in favor of Portland, as the following very unkind and ungentle- manly comment of the Times of that city would indicate: BAKIN£eoWo‘ EXTRACTS' ■ J U ST righi I __ PORTLAND; ORE.

President Roosevelt is quoted as saying the association in Wall street hates him and that “When I go to Africa, Wall street expects ev ery lion to do his duty.” The Presi dent is also quoted as saying he does not plead for centralized government but for the recognition of the power already vested in the national gov ernment, adding: “If congress will give me. and ! wTe nl say me, I mean the president, | and the national administration, the power to secure thorough supervls- I ion of the financial affairs of the' railroads, to regulate the issuance1 of stock, to prevent stock watering an 1 to insure publicity of all their I affairs with due regard to legitimate trade secrets, it would settle the whole corporation question.” The several cups and trophies for) the Poultry Show which takes place in Eugene next week, have arrived and will be displayed in F.

Okla.. Dec. 10. —Gover It is strange how mortally afraid some people seem to be of “tainted” money. In olden times people were a great deal more philosophical about this matter. “Non olet,” said the Roman statesmen, and they took money wherever they could extort it. Congresman-elect Wiley, of New Jersey, seems to be particular ly afraid of contamination by coming in contact with “tainted" greenbacks or yellowbacks. He proposes to introduce a bill in congress providing that all used bills returned to the United States treasury for redemption be destroyed and new bills be issued in their place. Standard Oil money should be disinfected before it is turned over to the treasury. It might become a source of great danger to official circles in Washington. Somebody will be suspecting Major Squier, of tne signal corps, of being more bloodthirsty than Hobson, if he continues to express regret that this was the only power at The Hague conference that signed the egreement prohibiting the dropping of explosives from balloons in time of war.
