H. B. Bmallplece, J.P, representative, THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG, FRIDAY, MARCH 29, 1912. YEAR in Not a liberal elected in British Co- lumbia elections, the polling in con- nection with which occurred on Thurs day. No one who knew of the cir cumstances expected any difikent re sult. Advantage was taken of the power possessed by the government to make most extravagant and reckless deals with 'the railway corporations, all of them, and as a résult the big interesis exercised all the influence they possessed, for their own good surely, not the country's. 'The McBride government is running things with a high hand while they can. It does not pay, politieally, to hold hasty elections and seek snap Dr. McQueen has withdgawn hs eat which aimed to provide hospital ac commodation for the sick poor at the municipality's expense, and he did this at the suggestion of the provin- cinl secretary, whose new act respect- ing hospitals and charities seems to be <0 comprehensive. There are some features of this new measure which, by the way, affect the local institu- tions. The aid is seven cents per day during the calendar year. The grant for each indigent in actual attendance is dependent on the condition that every requirement of the act is com- plied with; and section 14 of part 1, where the receipts are equal to or exceed the expenditure for maintenance, without reckoning the aid referred to in this act, no did shall be granted unless the leutenant- governor so directs. The managers of some public charities who are fond of nest eggs will perhaps: now get wise, The hospitals that receive aid must accept all sick, THE BRITISH COLUMBIA ELECTION. ---- GETTING MORE EXACTING. except those having | verdicts. Sometimes they are secured ~they were in this case--but the after math is always trying. In the Brit- ish Columbia campaign, though rush- ed, even promivent conservatives pub- licly reprobated the deals of the gov- ernment' aud lamented that the party was given to ecorrupion and waste. But: to no avail. The big corporations, and the syn- dicates 'which were favoured by the government, and which, no doubt, bled profusely for them, had full swing, afd later on the cost will become ap- pareal. The prople's heritage, the land and its resources, have suffered severely, communicable diseases, and the municipality must pay for his care, and-if he 'dies his burial expenses, ex- cept, as in Kingston, a fixed annual payment is made in lieu of all liabili- ties. The clerk of the municipality must be notified of all admissions, and this elerk must, within a specified ime, notify the hospital whether or vot he is a resident of the city or town. There is one defect here. The hospital should notify the city when non-residents are released, so that iv may see they are passed on to the municipality to which they belong, and not Become, , like some cases Kingston, a burden on pality. Private hospitals which have invit- ed criticism, are 0 be licensed here- after, when approved by the inspector, and they must keep a record of all the transactions that take place with- in the munici- da rest, and they ought to be in them. In this way a check or end may be put upon. some of the periences that have occasioned much comment in the past. ex- very The Ontario Medical Council is in- directly on its trial when there is suy reference to criminal cases in which men have participated, calling them- selves doctors but submitting no evi- dence, and not being ealled apon to do so, that they have qualified for medical service. ; In recent years the Medical Council has been criticized, from within and without its membership, because of the peculiarity of its action. It has prosecuted, and seemingly persecuted, members of {he medical profession be- Feause they have not observed the eti- quette which comports with their call- ing. There was one case which will be recalled, that of a physician who said he had a cure for la grippe and who advertised it--why shouldn'y be? --to the annoyance of other medical men. There were other cases in which the council seemed to show extraordinary lenience towards alleged offenders; hence the impression spread that the THE ISSUE OF LICENSES. Smits t should be allowed council was mot always quite as ag: | where, gressive and impartial as it ought to son be. And now there are reports in the papers about an alleged college, the operations of which are to be in- vestigated by the courts. The conclusion i follows that gusted. The climax came when the senate refused to coerce Manitoba. Ne wonder Mr. Bourassa wants to go somewhere. He will seek repose, re- creation, rest, in Europe. The legislature had better annul the law against licenses than amend it so that it is witnout cheek or cect.

The government, through some department, should see that every physician who presumed to practice was qualified and licensed. A while ago it was proposed thst the council's examinations be dispensed with as unnecessary, and the govern- ment should be disposed to act upon the suggestion. The government is being held more and more responsible for the com- petency of the men whose labours have to do with health and life, and it should go a step further and assume the right of licensing every doctor who desires to practic within the pro- vince.
