History in revealing the past becomes the guide board of the future. Read herein of the first meetings of the Los Angeles County Medical Asso- ciation forty ja'ars ago, of the organization of the College of iledicine of the University of Southern California (now the Los Angeles Department of the College of Medicine of the University of California) more than a quarter of a century ago, the Salutatory in the first number of the Southern California Practitioner, published nearly twenty-five years ago, and you will gain an in- sight into the motives and ambitions that actuated the niedii-al pioneers of Los Angeles and of Southern California. These records make a must c-reditable showing. For thirty-five years the writer of tliese lines has been a i)articipaut in the current medical history of Southern California and he is pi'oud to see it col- lected and recorded in this permanent form. There were some striking characters in the profession in Los Angeles thirtj'-five years ago. There was that impressive looking Irishman, Di-. Rich- ard S. Den, who always rode a magnificent black horse groomed to glossy per- fection. Dr. Den himself was invariably well-groomed, being at all times dressed as though he were going to a wedding. But he never attended his own, and died at an advanced age a liaeheloi-. Dr. Den never made a visit for less than twenty dollars. Then there was Dr. John S. (JriflKu, a Southern gentlenuin, graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, who carried a brusque and somewhat forl)idding masl< to cover a tender, generous heart. Another figure of those days was Dr. W. F. P^dgar, a retired army surgeon of distinction. He was a delightful man. and commanded the respect of all who knew him. He bought a lot on Broadway, another on ]\L'iin Street, an- other corner of FigiU'roa and Washington Streets and other realty, so that his widow — still living in Los Angeles — has a valuable estate. Now and then in tliose early days there were in the profession those who evinced a spirit of the wild and breezy west. For instance, two phj'sieians — still witii us — who drew their "guns" on each other on Main Street near Tem- ple Block. \o blood was shed and their goreless duel did much to relieve the monotony of lite. Then tiiere was in those days Dr. Joseph P. AVidney. the ideal student, Iiliil(isii[)lier and kind i>ractitiouer. Every young: physician found in him a i)ractical friend and wise council- lor. Dr. \Vidney i.s a prophet and a seer. His great worl{, "Race Life of tlie Aryan Peoples," is an authority wherever the English language is I'cnd/ Dr. Widney lias a charming home in the suburbs on a street that bears tlic cuiiho- neous name of Marmion Way. The doctor is a profound lover of nature Ills library windows command a beautiful view of the Sierra Madre i\h)\intaiiis. While he was away from home a church was built that cut off this \ lew. 'i'liis gave him great distress. He immediately, at his own expense, iiad the church torn diiwn and idiuilt in another location. Today, as evening approaches, the doctor can sit in his library and feast his eyes and his soul on the fascinating shades and colors of the caiions, crags and peaks of our delectable mountains. Dr. Joseph Kurtz was another stalwart figure in Los Angeles thirty-five years ago. He drove a good horse, rode in an excellent "buggy," and was always followed by his favorite bulldoir. The doctor was then as ever consiil- erate of the young physician, lie Avas one dT the founders of the Los Angeles Medical College (now U. C.j, and has been a most efficient feachcr there evei- since. April Sth, lino, on tlie instiniclor's I'egister at the cnncui' llicrc was this entry : "Joseph Kurtz Good-bye to all." For on that day this forceful teacher, beloved by all, retired from the work-. The younger physician who comes to Los Angeles from the East and Irmn the North and the South should read these ])ages and by so doin^- hr will iiain a well merited respect for those who did the pioneer work. A history of medicine in Sontlirrn ( 'alirnrnia woulil lie ini-r, and friiils of the temperate and sub-tropical lands reach a high development. The history of California is naturally divided into three eras — the Span- ish, the Mexican and the American. The settlement of Upper California was begun under the Franciscan friars and tiie Spanish Government in 1769. 'IMie missions of California were establislu'd by the Franciscans, who were given exclusive control of Lower California in 17(57, when the Jesuits were expelled. Later the Dominicans supplanted the Franciscans in the peninsula, when the latter withdrew to Upper California, where they built missions and prospered until Mexico became independent of Sjiain in 1822. This change in governmental control was fatal to the Franciscans and theii- religious in- stitutions, and they lost ground from year to year, until 18-10, when they were 2 TIIK MEDICAL l'i;()l' I'.SSIOS oblipretl to (lisliaiid and the missions were broken up. These establishments are still refranled with tj'"<'iit interest as monuments of the devotion and zeal of their founders in the spread of their religion. Some of the mission build- intrs have fallen into ruin, some have passed out of the possession of the padres and several are still used as places of worship. The names of some of these missions, with dates of establishment, are as follows: Name. Founded. I Name. Founded. San Diego July 16, 1769. Santa Barbara Dec. 4, 1786. San Carlos dc Monterey hme, 1770. ' PurisiiiiM ('(ineppcion Dec. 8, 17S7. (Removed to Carinel Valley 1771.) S.mta Cruz Sept. 2"), 1791. San Antonio July 14, 1771. S..lr.lii.l Oct. 9. 1791.

The Spanish era was that of mission government, the eeelesiastieal dvci- shadowing the civil government, but in later years gradually lo.sing its hold. Mexico achieved its independence in 1822 and governed California as a :\Ie.\- ican Territor.v; the civil arm was strengthened; the missions were stripped of their authority and their lands given to settlers. The American period begins with the hoisting of the American Hag at Jlonterey on the ])reaking out of the war with Mexico in 1846, followed by the discovery of gold in 1848, the rush of immigration, the admission of the State in 1850 and a rapid dc- velo])nu'nt of material resources. The Si)anish and Mexican eras were pas- toral in their character, the wealth of the inhaliitants consisting largely in their herds of horses and cattle. Hides and tallow were the principal exports. In the American era mining was at first the great pursuit, and the proiluct of gold rose rai)idly to about ^()fi,()00,000 a year. The placers were then largely exhaustetl, and the gold product soon declined to a secondary intei-est. Tlic great productiveness of the soil had meanwhile attracted the attention of tlic men who had come only to make a fortune and return to their liomrs. an harsh sweep of the north winds. In Southern California, however, the trend of both mountains and valleys is from east to west, and the high Sierra, like a wall, shelters the land from the.se eohl northerly currents. The result is a climate nuich milder and more equable tlian in the upper portion of the State. It might be supposed that the country lying in the same latitude as the Carolinas would have some oppressive and deliilitating summer heat. From this it is saved, however, by the tempered westerly trade wind, wliicli daily blows inward to the land, bringing with it the coolness of the sea. There is a iieculiar stimulus in this air coming in from 6 Till-: Mi:i)i(Ai. ri:(>ri:ssi<>.\ the tluiusiiiKls of miles of salt \v:itci-. Our has to livi' liy the sea to uiidcrstaiiil it. Till' Ivcy of tile cliinalc lies in this, that it lias a warm sun ami eool air; hence the cool nifrhts. One picks rii)cniiij? figs aud bananas f?ro\vn in his own dooryard, and then goes to sleep under a ])lanket. The warm, yet not debili- tating day. furnishes one of the i-equisites in a climate for invalids. The cool, restful night, with its possibility of refreshing sleep, furnishes the other. The question is asked daily in letters from the East what disease and M'hat class of invalids may hope for benefit in coming to Southern California. In reply it might be stated : "1st. Persons of delicate constitutiiiii, I'ithcr iiihci-ited or ac(Hiii'iMl, and who resist poorly the extremes either of heat or cold — persons who need a warm, equable, yet rathei- bracing clinuite. "2nil. Persons iulu-riting consumption, but in whom the disease has not yet developed, or only to a slight degree, ilany such persons seem to throw oil' the tendency and remain strong and well. Even if parents, coming with the disease, do not in the end recover, their children, growing up in this climate, have a strong chance in their favor of eliminating the inherited tendency en- tirely from their blood and casting oft' the family taint. "'Mrd. Persons well advanced in consumption are often temporarily heiie- Hted. Such i)ersons should think well, however, before leaving the comforts of their own home and undertaking the fatigue of even a week of travel by railroad. It should not be done unless Tuider the advice of the family i)hysi- cian, and if they do. come it should be accompanied by friends. The despond- ency of loneliness and homesickness diminishes greatly the chance of benefit. "4th. Persons suffering with l)ronchial troubles are often nuirli benelited. Such cases, however, and indeed nuiny others, too often make the mistake of remaining for weeks or months without seeking the advice of a i»hysician as to the particular locality suited to their complaint. The varieties of climate in Southern California are many. Some portions of the county have nightly a heavy fog: other jiortions only a few miles away have no fog. Some sections are exposed to strong winds; others are sheltered. Some are low and damj); others high, warm and dry. Often persons go awa.y disappointed, possibly worse, who, had they sought proper advice as to the especial locality .suited to their complaint, might have received much benefit from their sojourn in the country. There are certain precautions, also, rendered necessary for invalids by the coming on of the cool night air after the warm day, and by the cool breeze from the sea, which can only be learned by experience, which to an invalid is a costl.y teacher, or from tlie advice of a physician familiar with the climate and the peculiarities of the different localities. "5th. Those coming from nuilai'ious sections of the country, with systems depressed by the dregs of fever, are especially benefited. It is a common cus- tom with the people here to go down to various pleasant points upon the sea coast and camp out for weeks upon the beach, enjoying the surf bathing. There are also well furnished and well kept hotels at different localities by the sea. This seaside life is especially beneficial to the persons suft'cring from the various complications of malarial poisoning. "6tli. The open-air life which is here i)ossible, and the great variety of fresh vegetal)le foods to be had at all seasons, help to l)reak up the dyspeptic troubles which make life a burden to so many overworked men. "7th. ^lany persons suft'cring from asthma have derived much benefit from the clinuite. The capricious character of the malady — no two persons suited to the same surroundings — make it difficult to give advice in most coun- tries to the sufferer, because of the limited range of elevation and climatic dif- ferences from which to choose. Here, however, within a circle of a hundred IN SOUrilKh'X CALIFOUMA. 7 :iii(] fifty miles one may find spots below the sea level, at the sea level, or with ■du elevation of 10,000 feet above it; spots with nightly a heavy fog, and spots that never know the presence of a fog; places swept by an almost constant breeze, and others sheltered from all wind; the odors and gases of asphaltum and jietroleum springs, or the air of the mountain pineries; the scent of the (iraiige blossom, or the l)alsamic odor of the i)lants of the desert. Differences (if rli'vation, which elsewhere one travels a thousand miles to find, here he finds \vitiiin a radius of fifty miles. ■■8th. Some cases of ehrouie rheumatism are benefited by the climate. Certain hot mineral springs and iron sulphur springs have gained quite a repu- tation in such affections. The climate of the coast line, however, has rather too nuieli fog. Such cases do better in the portion of the country back from the sea and among the mountains. There are points along the line of the Southern Pacific Railroad, as it crosses the Colorado Desert, where the hot, dry air, both night and day, and the warm springs for bathing, offer the very best climatic requisite for the relief of such affections. ■'9th. Chronic kidney and bladder troubles find in the mild climate, with its |)ossibility of constant outdoor life and the equable winter and summer tem- l)erature, the surroundings best suited to at least stay the course of the disease. ■'10th. Cases of nervous prostration, and all the innumerable train of tormenting ills that come to an overtaxed or deranged nervous system, may liope for relief by a residence in some one of the many pleasant spots that dot the land. The warm, clear day tempts to the outdoor life, and the cool night gives the refreshing sleep so needed in this class of maladies. Strangers speak almost invariably of the restful slumber of the night. '■In conclusion, there are a number of facts which have an important bear- ing upon the subject of Southern California as a health resort, and yet are not in themselves directly questions of disease. Among these may be mentioned exemption from the epidemics of yellow fever, which visit the Gulf States; ease of access, the country being tapped in all directions by branches of the South- ern Pacific Railroad. It is an agrictdtural and business center, with business openings for a largely increased population. It is the ediicational center of a large scope of territory, with its institutions of learning solidly established. It is well supplied with churches, and off'ers all the advantages of the best society. Food is abundant, varied and cheap, so that the expense of living is not great. And finally, it is not across the ocean or upon some foreign shore, where the invalid is an alien or a stranger, but Avitliin our own land, under our own rtag, and among our own people."

Osbourn, one of the signers, who was a native of \ew York, came to California in 1847 in Col. Stevenson's regiment. He established the first drug store in Los Angeles in 1850, which was succeeded in '51 by that of .McFarland and Downey. Daguerreotypes were first taken in Los Angeles by Dr. Osbourn and ;\Ioses Searles, on Aug. 9, 1851. In fact. Dr. Osbourn "s versatility was something remarkable. It is not easy to recount all the ol'(ic-ial positions he filled, or the numerous important public functions he pterformed. In those early days immediately after the change of government, by means of his rare intellectual ability, together with his knowledge of the Spanish lan- guage, he made hiiiisclf a very useful citizen in various capacities. When, as IX sorruEux califouxia. 9 often happened in that period, an aequaintanee with Spanisli was a necessity, he often acted as Deputy Sheriff. In 1853 he was appointed Postmaster of this city by President Buchanan. In 1855 he projected the first artesian well in Southern California, at the foot of the hills not very far from the present junc- tion of First street and Broadway. It reached a depth of about 800 feet in June, 1856, being still in blue clay, when it was abandoned for want of funds. "In 1852 fruit grafts of improved varieties had been introduced by ilayor J. G. Nichols. In 1855 Dr. Osbourn imjiorted from Rochester, a grand collec- tion of roses and other choice shrubbery as well as many varieties of the best American fruit trees, which \\\> to that time were almost unknown here. He was the first, too, in October, 1854, to ship East, fresh Los Angeles grapes, which were exhibited and commanded admiration at a meeting of the business committee of the New York Agricultural Society at Albany. And it is worthy of mention in this connection, that as late as November, 1856, when JIatthew Keller sent a like specimen, it was almost doubted at the U. S. Patent Office, 'if such products were common in California.' ""Henry Osbourn, a son of the doctor by his first wife, was for years and until recently, an interjireter in our local courts. He lost his life through an at'<-itlent not very long ago. "Dr. Osbourn 's second wife, who was a native Californian, is. 1 l)elieve, still living in this city. ■'Dr. Osbourn with all his versatility, was not always overscrujjulous as to the means he sometimes employed in carrying out his schemes. He once re- counted to me, without even a semblance of self-reproach, but on the contrai-y with a palpable chuckle because of his success, how he took an active part on a cei'tain occasion in a political contest. Sometime in the early '50 's, when an election was on for a State Senator, and San Bernardino was a jiart of Los Angeles county, he was exceedingly anxious to carry the precinct of Agua Mansa, which was mostly settled by Mexicans, who knew very little or no Eng- lish. So he went to the Padre Avho had more influence in his parish than any other person, and used his most suave methods of electioneering with the Dom- inie in behalf of his candidate; and then to clinch the matter, he asked the Padre to pray for the repose of the soul of his mother — who was then alive anil well in New York State. And on the next feast day the wily doctor was on hand at the church and on his knees, joining the Padre and his flock, in pray- ing for the repose of his mother's soul. He adilcd with just a shade of exulta- tion, that his candidate was elected. "'Drs. Blackburn and Dodge, two other signers of the accompanying docu- ment, I M-as not acquainted with. "'Dr. Charles R. Cullen 1 knew intimately, as he was my room-mate for a considerable portion of the time, from my arrival in Los Angeles in 1854, till lie left for his home in Virginia in the latter part of '56. "Dr. Cullen was a native of Virginia and a graduate of Brown I'niversity. He and his brother John came to California soon after the iliscovery of the mines. The doctor was a cultivated and genial gentlenum whom all who made his actpiaintance, could not help liking. The Spanish-speaking portion of our comnuuiity of that period were especially attached to him, botli as a sympa- thetic friend and as a physician; and for years after he went away, 1 remendjer that if his name was mentioned in the presence of those native Californians who had made his acquaintance, they would invariably manifest pleasure at the recall of his memory and would exclaim: "Ay Don Carlos! donde esta el.'' or. "(Jue buen honibre era!' or similar expressions of kindly feelings towarils him. "When the San Francisco HitUctin was established, Mr. C. 0.

I was the hiisiiu'ss iiianat;i'r. ami .lames Kiiiy- nf William was the brave and accomplished editor. Mr. Gerberding and Di'. Ciillen had been old friends in Richmond, before they came to California; and as llie man- agement of the paper desired to have a permanent resident corresitondent at Los Angeles, they entered into an agreement with Dr. Cullen 1o (ill Ihat posi- tion, paying him at the rate of ten dollars a column. Late in Xovember. "5(). Dr. Cnllen concluded to return East, and stopping on liis way at San Fran- cisco, it appears he reconnnended me. without m.v knowledge, as his snccesscn- as correspondent of the /.'»//(//;(.■ and accordingly he wrote me at llicir i-ci|iicst, asking me to keep up llie rorrcspiiiidence, on the same terms, etc. wliidi I did for several years thereafter, writing generally by each semi-mouthly steamer, giving a general resume of current events in Southern California. The doc- tor's letters, as were mine, were headed in the columns of the Bulletin — in small capitals: ''Letter from Lou Angeles'' — "From Our Own Correspondent ." and were signed ''Obscrvador." This signatui'e, however, T soon dropped. iMy first letter Wiis dated Dec. 6, 1856. T would like to add that in all my dealings with Mr. Gerberding, the business manager, I found him to be a thorough gentleman and a good friend. "Before I had any connection with the paix'i-. the assassination of .lames King of William had given the paper much ])rominence, and it had ali-eady become and it long remained the leading .iournal of the Pacific Coast, fl was very ably edited ostensibly by a brother of .James King of William, but in reality by Mr. .James Xisbet. a Scotchman, one of the most industrious and the finest literary journalists whom 1 evi'r had any ac(|uaintaiice with.

John !Mak.sii. Dr. R. S. Den was born in Ireland in 1S21. After receiving ;i thoi-ough education as a i)hysieian. sui-gcon and obstetrician, he was appointed surgeon of a passenger shi]i bound for Australia in 1842. Froni thence he came via \'alparaiso to Jlazatlan, where he received with delight news from his brother, Nicolas, from whom he had not heard for some years, and who was then living at Santa Barbara. Resigning his position as surgeon, he came to California, ari-iving at San Pedro August 21, and at Santa Barl)ara September 1, 1S4;S, at the age of 22 years. In the winter of 184.'i-4, Dr. Den was called to Los Angeles to jierform some difficult sui'gical operations, when he received a petition, signed by leading citi- zens, both native and foreign, asking him to remain and practice his profession. And so, in July, 1844, he returned to Los Angeles. From that time on, till his death in 1895, he made his home here, with the exception of a brief period in the mines, and about twelve j'ears, from 1854 to 18C6, in which he had to look after the interests of his stock rancho of San ^Marcos, in Santa Barbara county. A much fullei' account of Dr. Den and his long and honorable career in Southern Califoi-nia during the pioneei- times, may be found in the "'Illustrated History of Los Angeles County," published in 1889, ]ip. 197-200, which also contains a steel engraving and good likeness of Dr. Den. In the iledieal Directory of 1878 the following paragraph appears: "It is of record that Dr. R. S. Den, in obedience to the laws of Mexico relating to foreigners, did i)resent his diplomas as physician and surgeon to the govern- ment of the country, ]\Iarch 14, 1844, and that he received special license to l)ractice from said government." The document here referred to, Dr. Den, in the latter years of his life, showed to me. It was signed by Gov. ilicheltorena; and, as it was an interesting historical document, I asked that he present it to the Historical Society, which he promised to do. At his death, I took consid- erable pains to have the paper hunted up, but without success. His heirs (the children of his brother Nicolas) apparently had but little idea of the historical value of such a document, and therefore it probably has been lost. /.v sorriiEns califousia. v.\ Dr. Jolin S. Griffin, wlio for nearly lialf a crntiiry was fin pmincnt eitizrn, and an eminent i)liysieian and snrjreou of Los Anfreles. was a native of Virginia, liorn in LSKi, and a fj:raduate of tlie niedieal department of tiie University of I'ennsylvania. After pi'aetiein'; his [irofession sonn' tlii'ee years in Louisville, lie entered the I'nited States army as assistant surgeon, serving under (ien. ^V()rth in Florida and on the southwest frontier. As I presented the Historical Soeiet.v a condensed sketch of Dr. Griffin's life on the occasion of his death, three years ago (published in the society's Annual of 1898, pp. 183-"),) T would here refer nicnii)ers to that sketch ; and for further details, to the account that 1 wrote, taken down mainly from his own lips, for the Illustrated History of this county of 1889, i)p. 206-7. which latter is accompanied by an excellent stipple steel jjortrait of Dr. Griffin. There are many citizens of Los Angeles and. in fact, of California, still living who knew Dr. Griffin well and esteemed him highly. His death occurred in this city, August 23, 1898. Of other physicians and surgeon.s who practiced their profession in Los Angeles in early times, there were Doctors A. P. Hodges, the first ]\Ia.vor of the city (July 3, 1850, to :May 15, 1851 ;) and X. W. Hope, who was the "first State Senator (1850-51,) of the First Senatorial District (San Diego and Los An- geles;) and Doctors McFarlane, Downey (afterwards Governor of the State;) Thos. Foster, T. J. "White. R. T. Hayes, Winston, Cullen, etc.; and during the liftii-s and sixties and later, many others too numerous to mention, within the limits and scope of this brief paper. .Mr. liarrow's friend, ilr. ]Moulton, who came to Los Angeles in 1845, in- formed him that he knew two other doctors, who practiced here for a short time between '-15 and '49; one of them a Frenchman, who went to San Diego with Dr. Griffin to assist him in treating the wounded soldiers, and who. Dr. Griffin said, was a first-class surgeon; and an Aiuericau named Keefe. The Frenchman's name has been forgotten. From "California Pamiihlef s," on page 42 of the Centennial History, we excer|it the following item, which is of interest in connection with the above: For physicians, 1850 has Wm. B. Osborne, A. P. Hodges, "W. W. Jones, A. AV. Hope and Overstreet; in 1851, John BrinekerhoiT, Thomas Foster and James P. ^McFarland; in 1852, .Janu's P. Winston, and others. Dr. John S. Griffin returned to reside here in August, 1854. Dr. Richard S. Den was a |)hysician esteemed highly, prior to 1843. Dr. O.sborne was a native of New Yoi'k, came to California in 1847, in Col. Stevenson's regiment. He put uji the first drug store in 1850. which was followed by that of McFarland and Downey in 1851. Our fii-st daguerreotypes were taken by him and Moses Searles, August 9th, 1851. He often acted as Deputy Sheritt'— impossible to recount his vai'ious functions; a most useful man anywhere — friendly among his neighbors, of intelligence and public spirit. He was the projector of the famed artesian well near the hills on the west side of the city. Jt reached the depth of 780 feet June 7th, 185(), but was abandoned by the company for want of funds. In 1852, fruit grafts had been introduced from New York by J. G. Nichols. In 1855 Dr. O. imi)orted fi'om J{ochester a grand collection of roses and other choice shrubbery, as well as fruit trees. He was the first, too, in October, 1854, to shij) fresh Los Angeles grapes, which were exhibited with admiration at a meeting of the l)usiness conunittee of the New York Agricul- tural Soeii'ty at Albany. As late as November 17th. 185(5, when Mattln'W Keller sent a like specimen, it was almost doubted at the U. S. Patent Office — "if such i)roducts are common in California."

His wife, long divorced from him, nuirried a Frenchman. She was also living at Los Angeles in '80. It was hei' daughter who killed Chico Forster. " Hancroft fails to enumerate all of Jloney's titles. He, was variously called Pi'ofcssor iloney. Dr. Money and Bishop Money. He was a self-constituted doctor, and a self-anointed bishop. He aspired to found a great religious sect. He made his own creed and ordained himself Bishop, Deacon and Defender of the I\(>formcd New Testament Church of the Faith of Jesus Christ. Dr. Money liad the inherent love of a Scotchman for theological discussion. He was always )-eady to attack a religious dogma or assail a creed. When not discussing theo- logical tiuestions or practicing medicines, he dabbled in science and made dis- coveries. In Book II of Miscel. Records of L. A. Countj', recorded Se])t. 18, 1872, is a map or picture of a globe labeled "Wm. Money's Discovery of the Ocean. Around the North Pole are a number of convolving lines which purport to rep- resent a "whirling ocean." Passing down from the north pole to the south, like the vei'tebrae of a great fish, is a subterranean ocean. Beyond this on each side are the exhaustless fiery regions, and outside of this a rocky mountain chain that evidently keeps the earth from bursting. At the South Pole gush out two currents a mile wide marked Kuro Siwo. There is no explanation of the discovery and no statement of which ocean, the whirling or the subterran- ean, that Dr. ]\Ioncy claimed to have discovered. The record was nuide, no doubt, on the principle of protecting his discovery by a sort of patent right on the ocean he found swirling around in the interior of the earth. The theory of his discovery can only be infei-rcd from the drawing. Evidently a hole at the North Pole sucks in the waters of the whirling ocean, which jiass down through the subteri-anean ocean and are heated by the exhaustless fiery regions which border that ocean; then tiiese heated waters are s[»urted out into sjtace at the South Pole. What becomes of them afterwards the records do not show. From some cause Dr. Money disliked the people of San Francisco. In his scientific researches he made the discovery that that part of the earth's crust on which that city stands was almost burnt through, and he prophesied that the crust would soon break and the City of the Bay would droi) down into the exhaust- less fiery regions and be wi])ed out like Sodom and Gomorrah of old! The review of Dr. Moui'v's book, which I have mentioned, was written by the genial Col. John O. Wheeler. Ihen editor of the SotillKni Califoniiaii. a pa]>er that died and was buried in the journalistic gi-aveyard of unfelt wants, forty-eight years ago. Col. Wheeler was a walking library of local history. He could tell a stoi-y well aiul bad a fund of humoi'ous ones, but 1 could never pei'suade him to write out his reminiscences for publication. He died, and his stories of the olden times died with him, .iust as so uumy of the old jiioneers will do, di(> and leave no recoi-d behind them. Dr. ^loney's book was written ami iniblisiied in 1S.")4. Colonel Wheeler's review is (juite lenglhy, tilling iieai'ly two eulumtis dl' the Califoniiaii. 1 omit a considerable portion of it.

City of \a)s Angeles, we jironounce it a woi'k woi-thy of all dignified adniiratioii, a reform wJiich ecclesiastics and civil autlioi-ities have not been able to conijily with yet." The work opens with an original letter from the aforesaid Council General, which met August the 7th, 18r)4, near the main zan.ja in this city; .said letter was indited, signed, sealed "by supplication of tiu' small Hock of Jesus Christ" represented by Wamon Tirado, president, and Francis Contreras, secretary, and directed with many tears to the gi'eat defender of the new faith, who, amid tiic quiet retreats with which tlie rural districts abouiul. had pensively dwelt on the noble objects of his mission, and. in fastings ;uul prayer, concocted, tiiis great work of his life. "The venerable prelate, in an elaborate prefix to his work, informs tlie jiublic that he was born, to the best of his recollection, about the year 1807, from which tinu' up to the anniversai-y of his seventh year, his mother brought him up by hand. Tie says, by a singular circumstance (the particular circum- stance is not mentioned) 1 was born with four teeth, and witii the likeness of a rainbow in my right eye." It would seem that his early youtii was marked liy more than ordinary ca- l^aeity, as we find him at seven entering upon tlu; study of natural history; how far he proceeded, or if he ijroceeded at all. is left for his readers to deter- mine. At the age of twelve, jxjverty com])elled him to "bind himself to a paper factory." Next year, being tiu^n thirteen years of age, having made a raise, he commenced the studies of i)iiiloso]ihy. civil law, medicine, relation of cause and effect, philosoiihy of sound in a conch shell, peculiar habits of the muskrat, and the component parts of Swain's vermifuge. Thirsting for still furtiier knowledge, four years afterwards M'e find him entering upon the study of the- ology; and he says, "In this year (1829) I commenced my travels in foreign countries," and tlie succeeding year found him upon the shores of the United States, indefatigalile in body and mind; the closing of the same year found him in ilexico, still following the sciences above mentioned, but theology in par- ticular. About this time he commenced those powerful discussions with the Komisii clergy in which our author launched forth against the Old Church those terrible denunciations as effective as the.y were unanswerable, and which for thirt.v years he has been hurling against her. Periiajis the most memorable of all his efforts was the occasion of the last arguments had with the Roman clergy concerning abuses which came off in the Council of Pitaquitos, a small town in Sonora, commencing on the 20th of Oc- tober, 18:15, and which continued to ilay 1st, 1840, a period of five years. This convocation had consumed much time in its i)reparation, and the clergy, aware of the powerful foe with whom they had to deal, and proliable great length of time wliicii would elapse, selected their most mighty champions; men who in addition to a glib tongue and subtle imagination, were celebrateil for tlieir wonderful powers of endurance. There were seven skilled disputants arrayed against Money, but he vanquished them single-handed. "The discussion opened on the following i)ropositions : The Bisiio]) of Culiacan and he of Durango disputed that Wm. Money believed that the Virgin IMary was the mother of Jesus, lint not the mother of Christ. William iloney makes liis application to God, but not to the Virgin Jlary. " These and other learned propositions were discussed and re-diseussed con- stantly for five years, during which writing paper arose to such an enormous JX SOrTHEI.'X CAUFOUMA. 17 price that special enactincuts were made, withdrawing the duties thereon. Timi! would not admit of detailing the shadow of what transpired during the session. Suffice it to .say that through tlie indomitable faith and energy of Mr. JMoney, his seven opponents were entirely overcome ; one sickened early in the second year and was constrained to take a voyage by sea; two others died of hemorrhage of the lungs; one went crazy; two Ix'came converted and left the eouui-il in the year 18S8 and were found b.v ^\v. ]Money on the breaking up of the iDinnil to have entered into connubial bonds, and were in the en.joyment (if i)crfrrt happiness. The other two strenuously held out to the year 1840, wlien, exhausted, sick and dismayed, the council, in the language of the author, was broken up by offering me money to give up my sword, the "Word of God, but I protested, saying, "God keep me from such treacherous men, and from Ix'coining a traitor to my God." Thus ended this famous disputation of which history furnishes no parallel. From the foregoing our readers can form an idea of this great work. It fonas a volume of twenty-two pages, printed in English and Spanish, with notes, etc. ; ]irice not yet determined. We would advise all to procure a copy, as there lieing no .stereotype edition, the present few numbers will end the supply. This strenuous review brought forth a vigorous protest from Dr. ]\Ioney, and in the Star, over his many titles — Bishop. Deacon and Defender of the Faith — he challenged the editor to a discussion, but, warned by the fate of the friars at Pitac|uitos, the genial colonel declined the combat. Dr. Jlouey seems to have considered his call to preach par;nui)uiit to his call to practice. In a card to the public, published in the ^tar of Xovember 3, 1855. he says: "I am sorry to inform the public that since the Reformed New Testament Church has unanimously conferred on me the office of Bishop, Deacon and Defender of the Faith of said apo.stolic church, it is at present incon- venient for me any longer to practice my physical system. Jly Calif or nia Fam- ily Medical Instructor is now ready for the press, containing my three physical systems, in about 200 pages and 50 plates of the human bod.v. It will likewise contain a list of about five tlumsand patients that I have had under my jihysical treatment in the course of fifteen years' practice, from the port of San Diego to that of San Francisco. Out of this large number only four, to my knowledge, have died while under my treatment. I do not publish this for the purpose of getting into practice, but only to get out of it." His Family I\ledical Instructor was probably the second book written in Los Angeles, but whether it was ever published I cannot say. Some twenty -five years ago, when the Public Library wa.s in the old Downey Block, he had on file in it a set of plates of the lunnan body. They long since have disai)[)eared. lie removed to San Gabriel, where he lived in a curiously constructed adobe house. He died in 1800, at San Gabi-iel. His liooks and papers were lost. 18 '/'///•; MF.DicM. i'i:()ri:ssi()\ CHAPTER III. HEALTH DEPARTMENT OF LOS ANGELES. Of iiitorost as sliowiiifi- I he wondcrl'ul lulviiiicfiiiciil in iiii'lliods, due to the almost iiiarvclons increase in i)o]inlatii)n and material development of the last several decades in Southern Califoi-nia, should be a resume of the growth of the Health Department of the city of Los Angeles. From an admirable his- torical sketch in the annual report of Dr. L. M. Powers for 1904, we have gathered the following fads: The fir.st record we find rel'eri-ing to llie sanitation of the City of TjOs Angeles is as follows: To the Honorable Toirn Ciiiiiicil<. It being one of the princil)^d duties of any iiuinicipal body when it sees that an epidemic begins to attack the comnuinity. to enforce cleanline.ss, fumi- gation and similar measures, I respectfully suggest that you instruct the Syndic to spend three or four dollars in causing all the heads and remains of cattle as well as the dead animals that can be found, to be gathered into a heap in tlie borders of the town and set on fire at the hour of six in the (>vcning. to be tlioroughly consumed and the air pui'ified. Also that you admonish the peojjle to keep their premises clean and sweep in front of their houses and on no condition to throw any garbage, filth or olt'al of the cattle they slaughter in the streets. Also that the work on the zanja be pushed to an early completion, because our citizens who live further below are suffering greatly for lack of water, which is also one of the causes why the epidemic lasts so long. In making these recommendations, I beg of you to give them your immediate consideration. Los Angeles. ^larcli 27. 1847. Signed: .JiLl.\x ClI.WEZ. Los Angeles, ilarch 29, 1847. The foregoing proposition having been submitted to the Honorable Town Council, at its meeting held today, it was resolved that the Syndic be authorized and instructed to make the expenditure as suggested for the purpose of cleaning liie city. Jose Solaz.\r, Ygnacia Coronel, Secretary. Again wr Knd in city records for .lul.v 27. IS.jO. a resolution of the Com- mon Council declaring it the duty of the police to attend to everything touch- ing the comfort, health and adornment of the City. On August 8, 1850. under police regulations we find the following : Article 6. On Saturdays every householder shall clean the front of his premises up to the middle of the street, or for the space of at least eight varas. Article 7. No filth shall be thrown into zan.jas. carrying water for com- mon use, nor into the streets of the City. On April 2, 1853, the City Council passed an ordinance concerning the making of bread, rec[uiring the use of good and wholesome fiour, and uniform size of the loaves, etc. On February 28, 1855, the Common Comieil passed an ordinance regulat- ing the conduction of a city slaughter house or corral and requiring a monthly fee or rental for the u.se of the same and the disposal of the oflfal in such a manner as not to be offensive. Also created the office of stock and meat in- spector, who was to give a bond of $500.00 and to receive fees for inspecting I\ SOITIIEHS CALIFOHMA. 19 stook as follows: For neat cattle, 50 cents per liearl. and for slu'<'|). goats and hoffs. eacli 75 cents. In 1868. when the county hospital was only in name and the Sisters of ('liarity were paid per capita for the care of the indigent sick, and the police force ciinsisled of the Town ^larslial and one policeman, and the hoard of hcaltli. thr .Mayor iind two coiuii'ilnK'ii. ajjixjiiited liy the president of the Coun- cil, an epidemic of smallpox occurred and Dr. 11. S. Orme was appointed health officer at a salary of jfilO.OO per day. to care for smallpox patients and look after the sanitary conditions of the City. In July. 1868, the main building now existing in Chavez Ravine and known as the pest hou.se. was built jointly by the City and County, for a small- p(i.\ hospital. Smalli)ox was ([uite prevalent, many cases occurred among the Indians who were cmi>loyed to pick grapes in the city and vicinity. These Indians when first iittacked with the fever would often plunge into the zan.ia oi- river, and then lie around the banks until they were picked up in a critical condition or perhaps dead. The mortality during this epidemic was great. The Sisters of Charity with self-sacrifice and regardless of their health, ren- dered most faithful and efficient service during this epidemic. Vaccination was enforced as thoroughly as possible and the disease was ere long eradicated. In 1869 Dr. Orme resigned. Here is the following resolution; flavor's Office. Citv of Los Angeles, June 30, 1869. /)/■. //. N. Ormr': Sir: — I am instructed by the Board of Health of the City of Los Angeles to return to you from the Board of Health, their warmest thanks for the efficient manner in which you discharged your duties as Health Officer and attending Physician at the City Smallpox Hospital. Respectfully. W. 6. Dryden, Secretary. It seems from 1869 that Drs. Pigne. Dupuytren. T. C. Gale, and J. H. ;\lcKee. served as health officei-s at different times. Dr. J. H. JIcKee was elected Plealth Officer on June 25, October 15. and again December 31. 1874. On April 11. 1873, the City Council passed an ordinance creating the Board of llealth to consist of the ^layor. President of the Council and two members of the Council to be appointed by the President of the Coiuicil. The salary of the Health Officer was $50.00 per month, and he was to be appointed by tile Board of Plealth. subject to the approval of the City Council. On August 9. 1874. the City Council passed an extensive sanitary ordin- ance providing for free vacciimtion. reports of births, deaths and contagious diseases, etc.. and another resolution regulating the prevention of nuisances and providing for the public health, etc.. including a section prohibiting the sale of adulterated milk. On June 22. 1876, the Council passed a resohitiou fixing the Health Of- ficer's salary at $75.00 per month. March 1, 1877, the Council passed an ordi- nance repealing ordinances of July 11. 1873. and August 1. 1874. pertaining to the creation of tlu' Board of Health and iirescribing the dutii's of the Health C^fficer. etc. In 1877. a report was made to tiic Coiuicil that one Jlrs. Domiuguez had broken ([uarantine because of the want of food. The Council authorized the Health Officer to supply food to families in {|uarantine for smallpox. Again in 1878, the Common Council passed a resolution relating to the health of the City of Los Angeles, to prevent the spread of contagious dis- ea.ses by providing quarantine regulations for the incoming trains, etc. On January 2, 1879, Dr. AValter Lindley was elected Health Officer: at that time there was no Board of Health and the City Council elected the Health oniccr. Dr. Lindley inaugurated the system of free vaccination of children attending the public schools and succeeded in securing the passage of an ordi- 20 77//; \ii:i>icM. ri:(>Fi:ssi()\ ii;iiirc pi'iiliiliil iiiy llir li,-iiiilliiiii- 111' swill Mild f^arba<;'e tlircmy'li the streets hctuci-n tile hours (if !) a.m. and '> p.m. 1I<' established the system of registering t)irtlis and deatlis. and secured a sewer system for the main streets; he also made an animal report of the transactions of tlie office. Dr. Lindley's report made No- vemher 13. 1879. for the ten monllis previous to November 1. 1879, shows esti- mated popuhition to be 16,0(1(1. numbiT of births 223, and number of deaths 175, including still liirths. Dr. J. H. Winston served as llr.-illli Oflicci' in 1880-81-82. and made aiinu:il l'(>|i()rts of traiisai-t ions of the uflirc willi taliidalccl re])orts of deallis and hirllis, etc. In 1883 and 1884. Dr. T. C. (!alc was ilcallli Ofliccr and made annual ri'ports of the work performed in the ot'lice and tabulated reports of deaths and births, etc. In 188.") and 1886, Dr. J. S. Daker served as Health Officer making several ri'porls of smallpox and diplitheria outbreaks, also an annual report for the year ending November, 1886, in which he I'ecommends the building of a filth crematory. The number of deaths during this year was i'A. and the number of births. 438. Of the 454 deaths, 120 were caused by consumption. 12 died from typhoid fever, 15 of scarl(>t fever, 7 of diphtheria and 14 of pneumonia. The rei)ort shows the amount of sanitary work performed during the year, and accom[)anying the report is a tabulated report of deaths. ill 1887 the City Board of lleallh consisted of the .Mayor, AV. II. Work- man; President of the Council. L. N. I>reed, and J. Lovell, J. Frankenfield and IVl. T. Collins, members of the ('onneil. Dr. i\Iartin Hagan was elected Health Officer; Dr. George L. Cole was Assistant Health Officer and Acting Tolice Surgeon. When the city was on a boom, rajiidly increasing in population anil extending in territory, an ei)idcmic of smallpox set it. The Health Offii-er reports that vaccination was vigorously enforced, and ;is many as 30. ()()() people were vaccinated within a period of four weeks. In 1888, the Board of ll.alUi consisted of the Mayor, W. H. Workman; President (if the Council. .1. F. Humphrey, and James Hanley, M. T. Collins and E. A. (iilibs. members of the Council. Dr. -I. \Y. Reese was elected Health Officer, Dr. .1. .1. Choate, Dr. Fenner and Dr. Thompson were the assistants. During this year the ei)idemic of smallpox was stamped out. The Health Officer made an annual report of work performed and recommended the apiiointment of at least three additional sanitary iiisiiectors. a mark(>t inspector and a plnmb- iug and drain inspector. In 18S9 the new I'liarter went into effect. Drs. :\Iartiii Ilagan. -1. II. Davi.sson and -Ins. Kurtz, and Mr. II. l<]. Wright were elected members of the Board of Health, and Dr. Granville jMacGowan was elected Health Officer. During this term they obtained an office in the City Hall, with the necessary furniture, etc. They established the system of monthly reports, adopted sani- tary rules, and obtained the i)assage of a number of sanitary ordinances; established the system of placarding houses for diphtheria, scarlet fever and smallpox, and also took measures toward the betterment of our water supply by forcing the water com|)anies to use covered mains between the sources of .supply and the city. In 1889, this Board took much interest in securing park facilities. Dr. MacGowan succeeded in seeiu'ing the passage of a plumbing ordinance, which was to be enforced by the Building Superintendent. In 1890 the Health Officer in addition to attending to the duties of Health Office, actetl as Police Surgeon; at this time all cases of accident were taken to the Police Station and were cared for in the large open room in which the prisoners had their bunks. Dr. MacGowan succeeded in getting an appropria- tion of $600. 00, with which \w changed the old battery room into an operating IX SOf'TII/'Jh'X CALII'OHSIA. 21 rodiii, liy having a cement Hoor put in, a largos skylight made and the walls tinted. lie also had an operating tahle and other neeessary apparatus put in. This room, though small, made a very comfortable room for this -purpose. Dr. E, A. Bryant assisted Dr. MacGowan in his duties as Police Surgeon. After a great deal of trouble, and against great opposition, the Hoard of Health succeeded in estaiilishing a regular .system of collection of garbage, under the contract, and a crematory for the burning of the garbage was built. In 1891, Dr. MacGowan succeeded in having two new cottages built and the old pest house building repaired, so that it was storm proof and fairly com- fortable. The Health Officer was instrnmcntal in causing the construction of an outfall sewer, etc., to be built. In September, 1892, Dr. MacGowan prepared an ordinance including the provisions of all ordinances which was twice recommended bv the Board of Health. Tn .lanuai-y. lsf):j. l)i'. Granville ilacGowan and Dr. W. W. Hitchcock. Dr. Jos. Kurtz iuid Dr. C F. Gillingham were elected nu'mbers of the Board of Health. Dr. L. M. Powers was elected Health Officer for the ensuing two years. The inspection of public buildings, including schools, was systematically conducted and reports made of the same. The office of meat inspector was created and the system of meat. inspection installed. During this term, a new plumliiiig ordinance creating a Board of Examiners was passed and a plumbing inspectoi- to act as assistant building inspector was appointed. This ordinance was revoked in November, 1893. The inspection of the water and ice supply to the City which had been ei inducted by Dr. Granville MacGowan was continued. The Board of Health adopted for the fir.st time, written rules governing the Importing of contagious and infectious diseases, regulating the quarantine of the same, etc. Also secured the passage of an ordinance requiring the regis- tration of physicians, dentists and pharmacists, midwives and medicine vendors. A new plmnbing ordinance was passed by the City Council. The old oi-dinances regulating the sanitary conditions of the city being imperfect and iiuidequate, a new ordinance, No. 2888, was passed by the City Council, includ- ing a new milk ordinance. During the fall a room in the attic of the City Hall, a part of the room used by the library girls for their lunch apartment, was secured for the purpose of a laboratory for the examination of milk. Dairy inspections and milk analy.ses were made by the Health Officer. In January, 1895, the first cas(! which received the antitoxin treatment for dii)htheria was Thomas Hanlon, of 147 Hays Street, a patient of Dr. 'Si. 'SI. Cannon. The antitoxin, which was secured from the Pasteur Institute in New \i>vk City, was administered by Dr. L. M. Powers. In Jaiuiai'y. 1895, Drs. S. S. Salisl)ury, E. R, Smith and Carl Kurtz, and M. L. .Moore, were elected menil)ers of the Board of llealtii and Dr. F. W. Steddoni was elected Health Officer. Dining this year the meat inspector was made also milk inspector. In the aiiiiiial report the Health Officer says: "There were 152 cases of diphtheria reported to the office, twenly-eight of which proved fatal, showing the percent- age of deaths to be 18.42; undt'r the limited u.se of antitoxin, the death rate lias lieen reduced fnmi 25.03 per cent, last year, to 18.42 per cent, this year. Kriough antilo.xin has been used to prove conclusively that it has saved the lives of many cil' our children." .\ccording to the reiiorts obtained, antitoxin was used in ahoiit .111 per cent, of the cases reported. In the report of dairy inspection, we see that there were five cows con- demned and killed because of tuberculosis. The Health Department secured the passage of an anti-expectorating ordinance. illiui-M. I)r . .M. 1.. M.v ..IV iumI 1)1- linl of llr; ;lllll; Dr. 1> . .M. I'owcn 22 THE MEDICAL I'h'OF ESSlOX In 1897.

The first eight months mueh of the time was consumed in settling the question as to who had the right to the appointment of the sanitary inspeetors. the Board of Health. oT- tlie City Council. For three months pending the decision of the Court, we had two sets of inspeetors calling at the office every morning, and there was also much trouble in securing the proper control of the street sweep- ing. During the fall a new inspector was a])pointeck on June 8, 1888, some eighty physicians being present during the da.v. The meeting was called to order by Dr. AV. G. Cochran, who stated the object of the meeting to be three- fold, iKiiiiely. the nchaneement of medical knowledge, the elevation of the pro- Tessioiial eharaelei-. and the encouragement of social intercourse and harmony among 1lie memliers of the profession. 26 THE MIJDICAL rL'OF KSSlOX Dr. .M.

Some of th(^ pai)ers of the Los Angeles ('iiuiity .Medical A.ssociation have disappeared in this fashion. A hrief sketch written hy the Secretary of the Society in ISOl. Dr. 11. Hert.

A i)rcliminai\v meeting had been held at the oflice of Dr. 11. S. Orme on January 25. at which six physicians were present, and at which time Doctors Ornic and Hayes were appointed a committee to draft a constitution and by-laws. On January 31, at the office of Drs. (jriffin & Widney, this committee re- ported. Seven physicians were present and organized them.selves, ado])ted a constitution and liy-laws and adjourned to meet at the same place on February 7. The seven charter members who signed the cou.stitution on the evening (tf February 7, 1871, were John S. Griflin, llenrv S. Oimuc, Joseph 1'. Widuev, William F. Edgar, R. T. Hayes, L. L. Door and T. II. Rose. On January 4, 1876, the Society discussed and endorsed the bill Lor the Regulation of the Practice of Medicine. It was this bill which became a law Ajiril 3, 1876. and which w-as amended April 1, 1878. February 1, 1876, the Society appointed a committee to draw up a coui- nuuiication to the City Council "showing the sanitary^ condition of the city and urging the importance of the establishment of a Board of Health and a])point- ment of Health Officer," and on June 6 of the same year the City Coun<-il requested the Society to select a .suitable and competent physician for the posi- tion of Health OiMcer, whereupon the Society elcted Dr. J. IT. McKee. In ]\Iarch, 1878, Dr. Joseph Kurtz reported a case which is certainly worthy of being placed upon record. He had shoi-tly before delivei'cd a woman of a child weighing a little over eighteen pounds. Along in the spring of 1878, there evidently was a lack of interest in the Society, and the following resolution was entered upon the minutes: "Re solved, that any member of this Society absenting himself for three successive meetings be dropped from the list of uicmbers. nidess i-ea.sonable excu.se be offered and accepted, by the AssociatiDU. " The resolution was, however, in- definitely postponed. On July 3, 1878, the Society was ineorixirated according to the laws of this State, under the name of "Los Angeles County Medical Association," and on July 5 the Society adopted the motto "Scientia ct honos" for its .seal. In the minutes of the same date appears the following: "By the unani- mous vote of the Association, was placed on the blacklist. Thus prohibiting any member from consulting with him on pain of expulsion." The following throws some light on the origin of the Southern California ]\IedieaI Society. In August, 1884. the following connuunication was read to the Association: "We, the undersigned, move that a connnittee of three be ap- IS s()rTiii:i;s caufohma. w.i |)(iiiit(il hy this Association to arrange for the organization of a medical society to he known as tlic Southern California Jledical Society, etc., etc. "F. A. Seymour, "H. H. ]Maynard." At the Deceml)er, 1885, meeting The Soulhern California Practitionrr was cndDrsed and papers and discussions were voted to be given to it. In January, 1888. tiie Hoard of Supervisors requested the County .Medical A.ssociatioii to reconmiend a successor to Dr. TI. II. Maynard as Connty Phy- sician, he having resigned. The Society unaninionsiy rc(|nestc(l l)r'. .Maynard to reconsider his resignation. In April, 1888, a eonnuittee of l)rs. Cochi':iu. i'>rainci-d, Davis. Laslicr and HaI)coi'l< was appointed to ascertain the sentiment in regartl to formation of district society. As a result of the etforts of this committee the Southern Cali- fornia Medical Society held its organization meeting at the Ilollenbeck Hotel June 8, 1888.

The reading was followed by discussion and a vote of thanks tendered Dr. Kurtz." (Prom which one would infer that Dr. Kurtz had answered his own question.) On March 4, 1881, the minutes state that "The Committee on Irregular Practitioners reported that a complaint had been filed with the District Attorney against the so-called 'Dr." ('. S. Hastings and that his case would come before the next grand jury. "Dr. Kurtz gave notice that he would file a complaint against B. F.

A committee of Drs. Turpin, Davisson and Wise were appointed to report, coiduting the com- ment. ' ' And attached to the minutes of the next nu'eting is a uews|)aper clipping as follows : A CLEAN BH.L OF HEALTH. KEFfTATION OF CHARGES ADVANCED DURING THE LATE C.\.M1'AK;N. "The committee of the Los Angeles County Jledical Association, ai)pointed recently to investigate the criticism of our sanitary condition published in the Journal of the American Medical Association of September '28th, has re|)orted as follows. The committee consists of Jlessrs. L. J. Turpin, 'SI. L. .Muoic and J. n. Davisson: ■' 'During the recent sewer-bond contest, which, from the very nature of the case, resolved itself into two systems for the ultimate disposal of the sew- age, viz: "outfall to the sea" and "sewer irrigation," the heated news|ia])er contest led certain local papers, in their zeal, to carry their sj'stem, then Itcforc the people, to exaggerate our sanitary conditions, and thus placed the city of Los Angeles at a disadvantage before the country at large. Our eastern rivals have seen fit to reproduce these misleading articles to our detriment. By ref- erence to the official records of the Health Departuunit, we find a death rate for 1888 of 8.5 per 1000, and for the current year of 8.89 per 1000. hi these figures are included all the deaths of invalids from other States and foreign countries, many of whom were in a dying condition upon their ari-ival. The Los Angeles Medical Society, independent of the merits of either sewer system. Iieing familiar with the facts, deprecates su<-h pre.indicial procedures. The business and most populous residence portions of the city are already well supplied with sewers of ample capacity and in good sanitary condition. On the contrary, Los Angeles has less general sickness, and, consequently, a lower mortality, than any other city of equal size in the United States.' " « * * The need of a medical library was early recognized, and at the meeting of December 19, 1890, "The Library Committee reported lliat they had secured two dozen chairs, in addition to those previously reported on. also a chair for the President, and a new desk, and a seal for the Society's use. Tiie committee also reported that thev had written a circular letter to publishers of all of the known journals of ly SOmif-JL'.X CALIFOUSIA. 47 mediciue publislied in the TJmted States, niiinl)erinK sQiiicthiug over two hun- dred, recjiiesting them to send their rospective journals, gratuitously, to the library of the Los Angeles County Medieal Association." At the same meeting it is stated that "The Secretary also called tiie attention of the meiiii)ers to the faulty con- dition of the Constitution and lij'-laws, and moved that a committee of three be appointed by the chair to revise the same and report. After some discussion the motion was put and carried and the chair appointed." Tn tile minutes of the miMtiiig of June 5, 1891, it is stated that "It being understood that the Women's Friday ilorning Club desired rooms, Dr. Arils was instructed to offer the Society quarters for a considera- tion." * * * A page of the annual of the members of the Los admission into the Society '71 II.

"The subject was discussed at some length by Drs. Davisson, Hitchcock. Orme, H. Bert. Ellis, Miller and FitzGerald. aftJr which Dr. 11. Kcrt. Ellis made the following motion : '■ 'Moved: That it is the sense of this Society that it is une.xpedient and unwise to send the mortuary and meteorological reports to eastern journals, because they are incomplete and inaccurate and hence liable to harm rather than benefit Los Angeles.' " * « ■:* At the meeting of September 6, 1892, it is stated "Dr. M. L.

"Dr. Wills said the matter was presented tonight in order to find out whether or not we want the State Society to meet in Los Angeles in 1895, and certainly we do not want an invitation sent without the hearty co-operation of all the members. "Dr. Lasher stated that the State Society does not meet imtil April, and more time should be taken to consider the nuitter, and with permission of the mover of the motion, he moved the r|uestion to be withheld until a later meet- ing. "" * * * At th.' me,ting of October 18, 1895, it is stated that "Dr. T. -1. ^McCoy read a very interesting paper on "Forty-nine hirvae or Texas screw-woiMiis removed from the naso-pharynx and soft jialate (showing .specimens.)

Knopf, now of New York, read a paper entitled, "'Should We Trent Consump- tion as a C'Ontagious or as a Communicable Disease?" was followed by the filing of charges against a member for unprofessional conduct. The action of the Society was interesting as the following excerpts show: The Board of Censors wishing to nuike a report. Dr. Hitchcock moved, seconded by Dr. Dodge, that executive session be declared. Carried. The Board of Censors then reported having received the following com- munication : "We hereby formally charge Dr. , a member of the Los Angeles County Society, with having violated Article IV of the Constitu- tion of this Society, in that he operated on two patients for the German-English Specialists, said operations having been exploited in the advertisement of said German-English Specialists in the Sunday Times of April 26." And recom- mended that the Society hear the explanation of the accused. After Dr. 's explanation ans. When .secondary lesions are pi-esiMit you will ha\-e a pecidiar sallow anemic appearance, differing decidedly I'rom other anemias. 1 would warn against nuiking diagnoses on the use of m(>rcury or iodide of potassium. These remedies are good for almost all depressing diseases. Have seen cases where the tuber(de bacilli was present get well under these remedies. The lesions here also consist of cells closely packed togethei". but not so nuicli so as in syphilis. If you apply stick nitrate of silver to syi)hilis. it will not siidv in, but in tuberculosis it will. The need of steps to tight t nlii-l'culosis, the disease responsiljle lor sucdi a large proportion of California mortality, owing to the constant inllux of in- fected persons from the East, no doubt led Dr. John ^FcCoy to present the fol- lowing resolution at the meeting of November 'A.' 1890 : Resolved, that we request the Governoi- of California to call the atten- tion of the next Legislature to the importance ol' legislation on the sulijeet of tuberculosis, and of a State Sanitarium for tuliei-cuhius people. Dr. Powers suggested that the niattei' lie rcFii-i'ed to State iJoard of Health, but Pr. ilcCoy said they would not meet until after the Legislature, when it would be too late, so motion was jiiit and carried. The controversy which waged not only in < 'alifoi'nia. but throuuhout. as to whether liubouic plague did or did nut exist in and about San l''i-ancisco in IDUU, led to the passage of the apiiemleil resolutions at the -Inly meeting of that year : Whereas, The quarantine officer of San Francisco, Dr. .1. .1. Kiiiyoun. be- ing considered by his colleagues a most competent officer in the .Marine Ser\ice and regarded throughout the country as an authority on bacteriology, and Whereas, The said Dr. Kiuyoun, having faithfully and courageously dis- charged his duties to the best of his abilities, has been most unkindly and unreasonably dealt with by the Governor, Federal authorities and news])ai)ers who are not competent .judges of quarantine regulations, nor capable of pass- ing on bubonic plague nor other diseases which may come to the port of San Francisco ; therefore, be it Resolved, That we, membo's of Los Angeles County ]\Iedical Association, wlio know Dr. Kinyoun's reputation and ability, express our entire confidence in his judgment and ability, and are glad that we have so efficient, com])etent and courageous an official to guard the largest port of entry in California. Be it further Resolved, That the Secretary of the Los Angeles County ^Medical ,\ssocia- tion forward a copy of these resolutions to Dr. J. J. Kinyoun. that he may be advised of the esteem and confidence in which his work is held by his col- leagues in this tiart of the State. L\ SOrrilEliS CALII'OHMA. 53 Tlie interest of the Society in the; work of the Health Office of Los Angeles, as Will as in the weeding out of illegul practitioners of medicine, is evidenced l)y the followiii'i' eX(Ti-pts taken from the iiiiniiti-s of tlir iiiri'tinLr held January 8, 1!)()1: Dr. Wills then jireseuted the following )-esolutiou: " Whereas, The Mayor has not yet nominated and the Council not yet eon- liriiied the appointment of the Health Officer, therefore, lie it "Resolved, That we, the Los Angeles County Medical Association, in regu- lar session assembled, respectfully and lU'gently recpiest that the present effi- cient and thoroughly satisfactory Health OtHcer, Dr. L.

The Seci'etary was instructed to write the ]\Iayor. inclosing a copy of the resolu- tions, and also to send a copy to the Council and to the morning pajiers. It was moved and seconded and carried that the Society go into executive session, after which the committee for prosecution of illegal practitioners then made its report ver})ally and presented a letter from its attorney, showing the arrests, convictions and tines to date, and it is here appended: Los Angeles, Cal., Dec. 21. l!l()0. Ti) M(.s.srs. Wills, Juluisuii oikI J)ocI(Jc: De.\h Siks: — I herewith present a rejjort of investigations and prosecutions against illegal practitioners up to date. The following cases have been pressed to a final detc^rmination and with the following results: In the case of People vs. Igleses [)rosecuted in the Police Court of Los An- geles City upon two charges, was found guilty and fined -i^lOO in each case. The same individual was arrested for practicing illegall.y in Long Beach and upon examination was held to appear before Su|)erior Court, plead g\ii!fy and was fined $oU. Benj. Perez was prosecuted in the Police Court, found guilty and fined ^|;10(). Minnie Wells was fined sf^lOO. There is now ]iending in the Police Court in some stage or other six cases, ainl 1 have complaints ready in five other cases to file within the next day or two. In addition to these we have located sonu' fifteen or twenty illegal prac- titioners which we believe it is almost impossible to reach under the pi'eseut statutes of our medical law, but with some amendments to the same there would be no difficulty in stojiping their practice.

At the second meeting, on the date and at the appointed place, a constitu- tion and by-laws were adopted, and Dr. Davis elected President; Dr. Rade- baugh, Vice-President; Dr. Rowland, Secretary, and Dr. Hall, Treasurer. At this meeting Drs. Arnott, Fraser, Kelsey and JlcWilliams joined the Society. It is interesting to note that, of these sevi'nteen original memliers, there are still in practice in Pasadena Drs. Deacon, (Trinnell, Radebaugh, Van Slyck, Swearengen, Slierk and Rowland. During the first year of the Soeii'ty the attendance of members varied from six to twelve in numl)er. At the next annual meeting, October :i(ith, 1889, Dr. John Adams was elected President, and the other officers re-elected. It appears from the record that Dr. Adams served as President until Feb- ruary 20, 1892. when.

From a sanitary point of view we must deeply deplore the defeat of the bonds for an incinerator. The disposal of the city's garbage as at present eondueted is a disgrace to the city, and a menace to the public health. 1 trust we can ett'ectively exert our iiilluciice to bring about a better state of things in this regard in the near future. The School Inspector, the lleaitli Officer, and tlu' uieinhers of llie I'.oard of Health are all members of this Society. The former luis already, in less than one year, fully demonstrated the value and importance of his office, and that he is the "right man in the right place." The Health Officer has won golden opinions for his industry and thoroughness, and his department is a model of efficiency and so considered everywhere in Southern California. When the addition and improvements to our hospital, now in progress, are completed, we can justly claim that we have an institution of which a city of three times our population might be proud. Its inception began with this Society and in its developments it has relied upon and received our unquali- fied support. In looking over the records of the Society, I was struck by the admirable synopsis of the papers generally, as given by the secretaries, and also of their interest and practical value. It was also exceedingly interesting to note liow thoroughly they kept in touch, as time went on, with the advancement of med- ical science and practice, and the high order and scientific value of many of the jiapers, especially of those of the last few years. "With this brief sketch of the Society's history for twenty years, i leave to the members, old and new, to add such reminiscences as may occur to them, and to correct anv errors I mav have inadvertently fallen into. SAN DIEGO COUNTY MEDICAL SOCIETY. A San Uiego County .Medical Sneiety was founded July 2(ith. 1S70, and continued for one year. The names of the founders were as follows: Dr. 11. H. IlotTman, Presi- dent; Dr. Jacob Allen, Vice-President; Secretai-y and Treasurer, Dr. T. C. Stockton. Dr. Robt. J. Gregg. In July, 188t), a San Diego County Medical Society was organized with Dr. K. J. Gregg as President. No meetings were held after the organization. On December the 1st, 1886, the present County Society was organized with Dr. MeSwegan as President; Dr. C. C.

To the courtesy of Dr. John Dryer of Santa Ana we ai'e iu(li'l)ted for the facts in the following interesting account of tin- Orange County Medii-al So- ciety : In prefacing this short account of the first twenty years of this Associa- tion, I will, I trust, be pardoned for using the first person in leading up to the actual beginning or formation of an organization which has meant so much to the medical profession in Orange county. On the 4th day of June, 1889, the election for the formation of a new county resulted favorably for county division, and a legal separation of what is now Orange county from the mother county of Los Angeles. This led at once to a segregation of interests of all kinds and every soi-t of business began to adjust itself to the new regime. There were at the period mentioned nearly as many jihysicians practicing in the new county as there are now, a careful estimate showing a very small net gain, and this has been mostly in outside places. Santa Ana, excepting Osteo- paths, has but two more doctors than were here in 1889. Fullerton, Anaheim and Orange have each gained from one to four, while in some smaller outside places there has been a loss. Westminster then had none. Huntington Beach was not on the map. Fairview, Tustin. Capistrano. Bolsa neighborhood and MePherson each had one, now none. The i)rofession was wholly unorganized with but few mciubcrsliips even ni the Los Angeles ^ledical Society, and only two in the State organization. On the evening of June 12th, just eight days after county division hail become an assured fact, the late Dr. J. A. Crane and myself were in conversa- tion over medical matters, and the question of organizing a county society was mentioned. Dr. Crane expressed an ardent desire for innuediate action, and for him to think was to act. Accordingly at noon of the next day be appeared at my door with a re(|Uest that I at once see certain nuMubers of the profession, that lie had already notified some and that it was the purixtse to meet at 2 i).m. in Judge Iluiiiplirey's ofiice on Main street, situated where the building occu- pied by llie Sunset Clul) now stands. The reason for such hasty action was that certain undesirable parties were that day proposing a county organization which would necessarily include some very objectionable elements. It was to forestall such action and secure recognition from the ]Medical Society of the State of Calironiia that tlie meeting of June i:!tli was cnll-Hl. i)i' the ( doctors is as fol- Dr. W. 1'..

Crane, Dr. J. .M. Laey, Dr. S. B. Davis, Dr. .1. 1,. Dr. J. P. Boyd — seven in all. Dr. Crane called to oriler and stated the object of the meeting. Dr. W. B. Wall was elected temporaiy president and Dr. J. P. Boyd tem|)orary sec- retary. The following agreement was di'awH up niid signed liy ;\\\ present : "We, the imdersigned physicians of Orange county, agree to form ourselves into an organization to be known as the Orange County Medical Association, and to he governed by such rules as may hereafter he determined upon." On motion of Dr. Crane the secretary was authorized to receive I he signa- tures of Dr. J. K. IMedlock and Dr. L. II. Fvdler, who had signified their wil- lingness to become mend)ers, but wei'c unable to be jiresent. The following resolution was offered and unanimously carried : "Resolved, That any regular physician of Orange county against whom no objection is raised at a subsequent meeting may be admitted and allowed to participate in the organization of this society." Under this resolution Dr. J. II. l^uUard of Anaheim and Dr. W. 1>. Wood of Orange were received and became participants. The names of the charter mend)ers, so to speak, together with their colleges of graduation to show the wide range of places from whicli they came to Southern California, are as fol- lows, there being eleven in all : AV. B. Wall, M.D., Tustin, .leirerson .Med. College, Penu.sylvania ; J. A. Crane, M.D., Santa Ana, ^Med. Dept. W- es. Res., Ohio ; J. M. Lacy, M. D., Santa Ana, Med. Dept. IT. of Nashville, Tenn.; C. D. Ball, M.D., Santa Ana, Univ. Bishops' Col., Quebec, Canada; J. P. Boyd, JI.D., Santa Ana, Med. Dcjit. l'. City of New York, N. Y. ; J. L. Dryer, M.D., Santa Ana, Cin. Col. of .M. i: S.. Ohio; S. B.

Bnllard. M.D.. Ana- heim, Harvard Med. Col., Massachusetts: W. 1!. Wood, :\r.D.. Orange. .Mo. .Med. Col., Missouri. The next meeting was held .lune 25th, at which time a Constitution and By- Laws were adopted, and uniler the i)crmanent organization the following offi- cers were elected and installed to serve until the first annual meeting in 189U: President, Dr. W. B. Wall ; Vice-President. Dr. J. il. Laey ; Treasurer, Dr. \V. B. Wood; Secretary, Dr. J. P. Bovd. I'.oard of Censors, Dr. C. D. Ball, Dr. J. R. :\IedIock. Dr. J. H. Bullard. The first members elected under the Constitution were Di-. I. 1). ^lills, Santa Ana, Indiana Med. Col., Ind., and Dr. D. W. Hunt, Anahi'im. .Med. l)e|)t. U. of ]\Iich., whose applications were received in August and favorably acted upon in Septend)er. On Nov. 5th Dr. J. A. Blake of Fullerton was elected to membership, but there is no record of his ever having at any time honored the Association with his presence. The year 1889 closed with foui-teen members upon the roll, and no addi- tions to this list occiirred until 18!)4, while there was during this period a net loss of three on account of changes of location. These Avere the Dr. Blake above mentioned. Dr. S. B. Davis and Dr. L. II. Fuller, the two last named, charter members. The minutes of these years show excellent wctrk in the way of papers and discussions and study. The first |)ai)er was read by Dr. C. D. Ball at the meet- ing of July 2nd. 1889, who reported some interesting cases of pulmonary dis- ease ani(AL ri:()Fi-:ssi(>.\ body has every reason to \>r proud, .-iinl as lonj;- ms tlic Oi'ange County Medical Association exists it will cherish and honor his memory. Another, Dr. J. G. ^IcCloutl of Garden (jli'ove, died whih' in active mem- bership. ])r. ilcCloud joined the Association in 1903, but failing health pre- vented his attendance except on one or two occasions. He died at Xewhall, where he had formerly practiceil his profession. Of those who have left the county or retired from active mend)ership, Dr. L. \V. Allingham, who served as i)resident in 1898, died a few years later in Ramsl)erg, Cal. Dr. Allinjiham was always an earnest and conscientious worker in the society, and added mu(di to the interest as long; as he remained a meudx'r, or until failing health ca\ised him to remove from our midst. The next of the honored and revered ex-presi- dents to go was the late Dr. Wm. Burgess Wall, a man whose great interest not only in his profession but in all things relating to his fellow-men, brought him in contact with almost every social, business anil professional interest in Orange county. Although a retired physician he was chosen the first president of the Association and served in the same capacity three successive terms several years later. His sj'rapathies and his aspirations w'ere always with the doctors of his time, and he strictly continued his relations to the Medical Society of California as M-ell as the local organization. So far as known there have been no other deaths either among members or ex-mend)ers, although during the twenty years of the existence of this Association an even fifty nanu's have been borne upon its roll of membership. Sonu' have come into the county, affiliated with the Association for a longer or shorter period, and then moved on to other fields. Since under the rules of this Association memliership is vacated by removal from the county and residence elsewhere, it is impossible to give the exact duration of any membership so terminated. Beginning with the new influx of iiKMubers in 1894, the first after the three accessions mentioned in the lattei' pari of 1889, the list of members to the present time is as follows : 1894— .1. G. Berneike, :\1.D., Santa Ana; L. X. Wheeler, Jl.D., Tustin; C. W. Rairdon, JI.D., Santa Ana; F. E. Wilson, .M.D., Westminster. 1895— A. F. Bradshaw, :\LD., Orange: G. J.

Robertson, J\I.D., Santa Ana. The present membership is twenty-four, embracing nearly all of the reg- idar physicians in Orange count.v. IN SOTJTnERy CALIFORMA. 63 or the oi'lfriiiiil iiic-iiihcrship hut five of the eleven remain upon the list, viz., Dr. J. .M. Lacy, Dr. .J. R. ^Icdlock, Dr. ('. D. Ball. Dr. J. P. Hoyd and Dr. J. L. Dryer. There have l)ecn seventeen presidents, Dr. W. H. Wall having served four vears, first in 1889, again in 1894, 1895. 1896, Each of the others served single "vears as follows: 1890. Dr. Laey ; 1891, Dr. :Medloek: 1892, Dr. Dryer; 1893, Dr. I?all; 1897. Dr. Crane; 1898, Dr. Alliiigham; 1899, Dr. Herneike. 1900, Dr. WiMul; 1901, Dr. (lordon ; 1902. Dr. Boyd: 1903, Dr. Wm.

Dr. Ball two and a half years. Dr. Fuller one-half year. Dr. Dryer six and oue-half years, Dr. Berneike one and one-half years. Dr. J. B. Cook one-half year. Dr. Gordon four years, Dr. Clark one-half year. Dr. Burlew one and one-half years. In 1895 Dr. C. W. Rairdon was elected secretary, but never acted in that rapacity. The first constitution anil by-laws were formed to meet the requirements of the Association and to conform to the code of ethics of the American iMedieal Association. These were afterwards remodeled under the constitution of the Medical Society of the State of California, each member of a county organiza- tion in affiliation with the parent society being also a member of the latter. The endeavor has always been to promote harmony and good fellow.ship among physicians. Many knotty points in medical ethics have been thrashed out. sometimes to the satisfaction of all, at others to the disappointment of a part of the membership. The records which are to be i)reserved in the library of the Association contain ail details of these disputes and controversies, and have no place in such a review as the present one. They are matters of his- tory recorded in black and white, and if in the future any curious reader of this historical sketch, which is also to be a matter of record, should desire to read them, it will be an ea.sy matter to find them. It will be better, however, to forget them and to ever bear in mind the good which this society has accom- plished. May the next twenty years be as prosperous. SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION. The San Luis Obispo County iledical Association was founded September 29th. 1892. It was first known, in 1892, as the "S. L.

SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY MEDICAL SOCIETY. The San JSernardino County Medical Society was organized June 7. PJUJ, at a meeting of the regular physicians of San Bernardino County which met in San Bernardino and organized by electing Dr. J. P. Booth of Needles, Pres- ident; Dr.' IToell Tyler, Vice-Presiclent ; Dr. J. M. Hurley. Second Vice-Pres- ident; Dr. C. O. ]\Iackchnie, Secretary and Treasurer. The society was organized with a membership of Mi and meetings were held in San Bernardino niontlily. Oflieers for the year PKCi were Dr. C. C. Browning, Highlands. President; Dr. •!. M. Hurley, Vice-President; Dr. Harris, Secretary; and Dr. Wesley Tlioinpsoii. Treasurer. At this meeting the rules and regulations adopted by the American .Medical Association regarding County organizations were adopted. Oflieers for 1!)()4 were elected in December of "that year: Dr. C. C. Brown- ing, President; G. K. Scott. Vice-President; J. M. Hurley. Secretary; and Wcslev Thompson, Treasurer, Officers for 190.5 were: Dr. Thomas M. BIythe. President; Vice-President, J. A.

Slireck, Second Vice-President; ]\I. A. Bennett, Sec- retary; W. A. Taltaval, Treasurer. In 1907 the San Bernardino County iledical Society and the Redlands ;\lc(lical Society consolidated and changed the place of meeting from San Ber- nardino to Kedlands. The officers for this year I'cmaiued the same as for 1906. Officers for 1907 were: Dr. W. P. Burke, President; Dr. Tyler. Vice- President; Dr. Jloseley. Secretary; Dr. Taltaval. Treasurer. During the year 1909 the society met Tuesday evening of each week and took up the i-egular l)ost-gradiiate work according to the outlines as given by the American ^ledieal Association. In December, 1909. the same officers wen* elected to serve for the year 1910. A physicians' club was formed, which has secured club room and furnishes free of charge a meeting-place for the Ccmnty Society.

In the fall of 1905, several of the younger medical men of Los Angeles conceived the idea of organizing a society whose membership was to be confined to the young men, and whose object was to be the study of advanced medical thought, teaching and proced)U-e as indicated by its name; its meetings were to take the shape of a symposium u\H>n the sub.ject for study. l.\ SOI TJIIJi;.\ CALIFOirXlA. 69 OifiMiiizMlidii was cftVctcd in Oetoljcr, IfHlo. with Dr. II.

Harry Gareelon Dr. Raymon Taylor. Dr. ];. J." Huff The meetings were held in the offices of the various ineui)>ers, were well attended and full of instruction and pi-otit to all. The first meeting of each year took the form of a formal dinner, which occasions were the scene of great ])leasm-e and friendly feeling to all members. The year 1906-07 .saw Dr. -lohn C. Ferbert as President and Dr. K. C. ^loore as Secretary. During 19(I7-()S Dr. Win. R. .Molony was President and \)r. Arthur (iodin was Sei'retary. i;i()S-()9 saw Dr. Rea Smith in the chair and Dr. Don Frick as Secretary. During this year the policy of the Society was modified so as to provide for the consideration of ease reports, clinical cases ami pathological specimens at each regidar meeting. This feature has proved to be a success and has added much to the interest of the programs. The officers for 1909-10 were: President. Dr. Don Frick, and Secretary. Dr. C. W. Anderson; and for 1910-11. were Dr. E, C. Moore. President, and Dr. F. L. Anton, Secretary-Treasin-er. Since the organization of the Society several mendiers have di-opped out and their jilaees have been filled by Drs. AV. \V. Richardson, E. II. AViley, P. II. Lunde, Harry Voorhees, T. R. McNab, .M. Creamer, Don Frick and H. 11. Lissner, and as honorary member. Dr. E. L. Leonard. The Society has a membership limited to thirty: this nundx'i- seems to be most satisfactory, in that it jirovides ample opportunity for all members to ju'csent a paper from time to time and to frequently take part in the discussions. The Society has jiroven its value and its futui-e success seems assured, in that the interest of its luiMiibers and tiie i|\udit\- of the work dierce. CLASS OF 189!). Gaylord ilcCoy.

The desirability of having all medical education under the direct super- vision and control of the State was foreseen by him who may be said to have been the moving spirit among the founders of the College of Medicine of the University of Southern California, Dr. J. P. Widney, the first and for many years the Dean of the medical department, and for a number of years also the President of the University of Southern California. In two addresses of more than twenty years ago, printed in Voluiue II of the Soullicni California I'ractHioncr. he voiced views of so advanced a stand that it has taken the score of years since foi- the nui.jority of practitioners to fully appreciate the wisdom of his foresight aud i)lans. The first of Dr. Widney's articles from which we ([uote, is from his address as chairnuin of the Committee on Medical Education delivered before the iled- ical Society of the State of California in the year 1887. Therein he said : HOW WOrLD THIS PLAN DEAL WITH THE SO-C.VLLED NEW SCHOOLS OP MEDICINE? "In this way. The only point upon which these schools base their claims for recognition is upon some peculiarity in the use of drugs. "This leaves the great fields of anatomy, i>hysiology, chemistry, pathology, surgery, obstetrics, and in fact the whole range of medical science except thera- peutics, unquestioned even by the schools which teach what to us seem unsound views in medical treatment. Let the State, then, by law grant the right to con- fer the degree of Bachelor of Medicine to all schools teaching in good faith the branches which have been enumerated, together with such others as may be designated, requiring a three years' course of a specified number of months each year, and certain clinical facilities. "Let the graduates of that school, whatever may be the peculiar views held upon i)oints of thera])eutics. have the right to enter the State University for IX SOITIlK/ry CALIFOh-MA. 75 their final year, and if they can pass the examination let them be graduated with the degree of Doctor of Jledieine, this degree carrying with it the right to practice medicine. "With this enforced higli stamiard nT rducatidii the ipiestion of lliera- peutics may saf(dy be left to settle itself. The impoi-tant point is to see to it that every [)ractitioner of medicine shall be an educated man. There will he no more si)eedy way of putting an end to unsound views upon such p(jints than to give to the student a thorough training in the gi-eat underlying princi|)les of disease, its causation, its phenomena, and its pathological i-esults in the human body. "The nu'n who have been tlioi'oughly trained in these points may, as a general thing, be safely left to judge of principles of practice. 1 believe tliat the safest, the best, the most speedy, and in fact the only, way to put an end to narrow and unsound views upon therapeutics, and to scl Is which may be based upon them, is not outlawry, but education. The other excerpt which we quote is from a paper on "Rational .Medi- cine," delivered the same year before the Unity Club of Los Angeles. Here Dr. Widney speaks as follows: ".\ND THE QFESTION OP SCHOOLS? OF DOGM.VS ? OF THEORIES? WHAT OF THESE? "Time will settle these: time, and more knowledge. As I have alreadj' said, one of the merits of Rational Medicine of today is, that it has learned to beware of positive dogmas and theories, and the schools which are based exclu- sively upon them. It has found that they are short-lived, and die out ; for they are based not upon science, but upon one view of science. Then, if that view proves to be narrow, or mistaken, or false, there is nothing left, and of course they ilie. It has felt in its own history the evil of these things, and how they may become a clog and a bar to progress. It has learned that even today, with all the great advance which has been made in the accumulation and classifica- tion of facts, the stock is not yet sufficient for final generalization ; and so has learned to work and to wait. In so varied a field, with a causation so varied, will a single general theory of disease, its causation and its management, ever be possible? It may be doubted. It certainly is not as yet. And so Rational ]\ledicine, grown wiser than the old, aims to waste no time, no labor, upon prob- lems which are as yet of necessity unsolvable. Insteail, its aim now is to delve yet more deeply into the facts, and to push ever higher the standard of nu'dical education. It feels that by this road, and l)y this road only, is the way to the higher truth. "And to the various schools of medical practice, schools basing themselves upon rigid dogmas and theories, it has only this to say: 'We cannot feel that you are doing the most worthy work. 'We cannot feel that you are best further- ing the advancement of human knowledge. We can only feel that, whether you pei-ceive it or not, you are dropping out of the current of jirogress: that by your i)rcmature generalization, and your rigid dogmas, you are tying your own hands in the battle. It is with no feeling of unkindness we look upon you; yet, standing as you do u]ion your narrower basis, we cannot recognize you as most worthy members of a liberal science. " 'Only, we plead with you to weed out the low-grade institutions of learn- ing in your ranks. Raise, as we are doing, the standard of eilucation, and keep advancing it ever liigluM-. If you arc honest in youi- l)elief, and we do not pro- pose to (pii'stion this, you need not fear the light, and increased knowledge. Let these lie the test : the dross will disapjicai'. and whatever of good there may be will remain. ' "And the time will come, in that newer day. upon that higher plane of science, when scdiools will drop away: and no one shall say. 'I am of Paul, and 76 TiiF. Mi:i>ic.\L rnoi'Kssios I of Apollos." Imt till' scii-llri- of 111, •clicinc shall lie dllc : t In- l)(M-|iM- shall lircolil," Doctissiiiius, mirI 1r' shall he (Hily a /ili iisicimi. a licaU'r of lucii."" All of which j^oi's 1o show and lo (Innoiistrate to the Hditoi- llial if wi' woiilil lie wise today, it will be \m-11 I'oi- \is to know and study soiiicwhal uf wlial those who have u'oiir before us have done ami advocated. What Dr. Widmy advocateil two decades ago, in thie time came to pass, the story of how tln^ College of ^Medicine of the University of Southern Califor- nia becaine the hos Aiigeh's Medical Departnicnt of iho State riiivrrsity being l)rietiy outlined in an iMlitoi'ial in llu' March, 1IM)'.I. Sdiillnni ('(illfM ntiiriiing to Ijos An^clrs Dr. HjiiIow presented the matter to President 15()\ai-d and the Hoard of Trustees (if the I'niversity of Southern (,'alifornia. With that l)road-niindedness whieh has always characterized their attitude towards the medical dei)artment they agreed to the sequestration of the Med- ical College and bade that department (iodspeed in its new relations. Dr. Bar- low then presented the necessity of paying a mortgage of 4'2(},0()0, that was the only lien on the college; property, to Mr. .hudcson A. (Jraves, vice-president and manager of the Farmers' and .Merchants' National Hank of Los Angeles. ^Ir. Graves, with that clear-sighted wisdom and promptness of decision for which ho is noted, immedialely saw Ihe force of Dr. Hai'low's stiitement and said he would give the $20,()(>U needed in memory of his son Selwyn Emmet (iraves, who was completing his senior year in the (joUege at th(; time of his death. There was in addition to this mortgage of $2().0U0 a note of .^2, GOO. which sevei'al members of the faculty personally united in paying. This matter being settled, Dr. Barlow atteniled another meeting of the Board of Regents at Berkeley, when he demonstrated that the iledical College was ready to comply with all the requirements. The final pai)ers were ordereil prepared and signed. This closed one of the most important events in the rdiicat ional history of Southern California. ]t also brings the I'niversity of Califoi-nia closer to us of the South.

Dear Sir: — In aeeei)tin^- your gii't oi' !f;'J(),()(l() lo the Los Angeles Medieal Department of the University of California we wish to convey to you our sin- cere thanks and gratitude. We believe tliat in so doing you have erected a most fitting monument to the memory of your son, whose ability, indiisti'v and character we had hoped would have placed him in tin' fi'dnl rank ol' his pi'ulcs- sion as it had already done anu)ug his college mates. In the practical side of his studies your son was most interested, and ymw gift enables this College to continue its gratuitous treatment of the poor, em- powers its profession to instruct the .students of the futui-c in a much \\\n\-v satisfactory way, and enables the institution to enter into its wider Held uti- trammeled. Although your son has passed beyond, through your tender lu\e as his father, his sjjirit will for all time be at work in a most practical and efticient way in the relief of human suffering and the furtherance of professional skill among the students. In acknowledgment of this service and in memory of so talented and i)e- loved a young man, the facidty of the iledical College has recommended that the Clinical Building of this institution shall be called "Tlie Selwyn Kmmett Graves Memorial Free Dispensar.y.

As such it completes the work begun in the public schools. Through aid from the State and the United States, and by private gifts, it furnishes facilities for in.struction in literature and in science, and in the profession of art, law, medicine, dentistry, and phar- macy. In the Colleges of Letters, Social Sciences, Natural Sciences, Commerce, Agriculture, Mechanics, ^Mining, Civil Engineering, and Chemistry, these priv- ileges are offered without charge for tuition, to all residents of California who are qualified for admission. Non-residents of California are charged a tuition fee of ten dollars each half-year. In the Professional Colleges, except that of Law, moderate tuition fees are charged. The instruction in all the colleges is open to all qualified persons, without distinction of sex. The Constitution of the State provides for the jierpetuation of the University, with all its de[)artments. » s * ORGANIZATION.

For entrance into the first year of medicine, two years' previous work in a College of Liberal Arts, covering the studies outlined in the pre-medical course of the State University will be required. Students who take three years of work in the College of Natural Sciences will be eligible to the degrees of both A.B. and M.D. Just how this entire change of affiliation will work out. time alone can de- cide, but with freedom of worry over the first two years, and concentration of energy and thought on the clinical branches of the last two years in which medical practitioners are particularly interested, it would seem, that with State support, the future of the institution could not be otherwise than most successful. Such at least is the thought and belief of those who have labored long and earnestly for the development of this institution and whose past serv- ices and loyalty may be taken as an index of their desire to place it under those conditions most conducive to its highest development and usefidness. 84 Till-: MEIUCAL rUOF ESSlOX THE COLLEGE OF PHYSICIANS AND SURGEONS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. 'Pile first piililic notic-L' of tlic intention to estahiisli n second eoiieij'e of ineili- eini' in tlie eily of Los Angt'les. probably aijpeai'ed in tiie Ao.s- Ainjilis Mi (Ural Jiiiiniiil (if January 1. 1904. in tlie followini;' editorial: "Los AiigT'les is to have one more niedieal sehool. The College of J'hysi- cians and Surgeons, a charter for which has alreadj' been issued, a part of the faculty have been chosen from the great abundance of available material here, plans for college building and hospital are being perfected, several available and -well-located sites are under consideration, and the institiition, which is to be a high-class medical school in every particular, will be open to students the coming fall. Los Angeles already has one medical school, and it is not the aim of the medical gentlemen who are connected with the new school to in any way antagonize the school that now exists here. Los Angeles is a great city, with a great future, with a climate unexcelled, and one particularly adajited to stu- dent life ; a city redolent with the breath of flowers and orange blossoms, just far enough inland to enjoy the sea breeze, and be free from the dampness of the immediate sea shore. What more could be desired by the young man or woman engaged in the study of medicine? Snow and cold is unknown in Los Angeles, the student can enjoy out-of-door life the whole year round, thereby keeping his health up to the standard, all of which should he an inducement to students to come to Los Angeles for their medical education. "Los Angeles now has a population, aj^proximately of l.'jd.dOd. which will increase nuiterially each year. We have here a large floating populatitm. which will furnish much clinical nuiterial, especially when they know they will receive the very best of service in the dispensary clinic, ilany physicians come to Los Angeles for pleasure every year and would gladly take post-graduate work if the opportunity afforded, and Math one other first-elass college in the field, it will stimulate both institutions to do their best work. It will advertise Los An- geles as a medical center, will turn the attention of students this way, and thereby this new medical school, instead of being a detriment to the school now here, will be a benefit to it and each to the other, and consequently there should be no jealou.sy between the two institutions as doubtless there will not be. The rivalry there shoidd be, is for each school to endeavor to make its course more thorough, and their ((ualification of entrance and exit equal to the best schools in the country. The ti-ustees of the new 'College of Physicians and Sur- geons,' are determined to make this a liigh-class school in every respect, and under these conditions this Journal extends to the new college a hearty welcome, and to the old, assurance of our good will and support, and it shall be the policy of this Jotiriuil to assist in every way possible the trustees and faculties of the two schools to make the word ' lios Angeles,' synonymous with high-class med- ical I'ducation." In the May, 11J(I4, issue of the sanu> journal appi-arcd the ollicial announce- ment and faculty of the institution, as follows : The College of Physicians and Surgeons, Los Angeles, California, was granted a charter by the State of California on December 11, 1903. The first college year will open October 6, 1904. Examination for entrance will be held October":^ 4 and T). IX soruii:L-.\ caijfoi.-ma. 85 Course, four years of eight months each year. The standard of entrance is that adoi)tclf-s;ici*itico and untiring clVort. Till- ]ioj)nlati()ii of Los Augeles is essentially cosmopolitan.

THE COLLEGE BI'ILDING. Loi-ated at 51() East Washington Street, in a charming section of Los An- geles, surrounded by sj)lendid homes and easy of access, not on the outskirts of the city, nor yet too near the business center, is to be found the modern and commodious building of the College of Physicians and Surgeons. Our college biiilding was designed, planned, and erected especially for our use. and contains all of the elements of a modern and np-to-tlate i-oUege liuilding. It is three- story, with l«isement. built of brick, with stone facings, and is i)racticaliy fire- proof. In the basement is located our instantaneous water heating sy.stem; a fur- nace which conveys heated air to each department, with apparatus for forcing cool and pure air into each room when needed ; storage tanks for anatomical material; a receiving and preparation room for same; a clay modeling room for the use of the Anatomical Department; also a gymnasium, well ecpiippi'd, and with shower bath for the use of students. On the first fioor is located the college office, faculty room, two chemical laboratories, thoroughly equipped with all modern apparatus and appliances, clinical rooms for each department of medicine and surgery, operating room, sterilizing room, clinic waiting room and drug room. Located on the second floor are the Pathological, Bacteriological, Histolog- ical and Physiological laboratories, which have east, north and west exposures, affording an abundance of light, and all well heated and eiiuipjx'd with all mod- ern appliances. Gla.ss covered tables are arrangi'd ai'ound the north and west exposures, and all the latest apparatus has been installed. Each student is sup- plied with microscope (Bausch and Lomb's), with oil immersion lens, for use when required. Private laboratories form a part of the main laboratory hall, thus affording opportunity^ for private research. On the second floor is also lo- cated one large amphitheater, seated with two hundred modern opera chairs ; one lecture liall seated with opera chairs; an Electro-Therapeutic room, equipped with Static Machine. X-Ray apparatus, and all necessary appliances; a chart room, sui)plied with imported charts, manikins, etc., arranged for use in various illustrative and didactic work; also a librarj' and reading room, commodious, well lighted and ventilated, and arranged for the convenience and use of students. ]\lany valuable volumes are found upon the lil)rary shelves, period- icals and .journals are also there for the use of our students, and, upon the shelves of the College ]\luseum, may be found many rare and valuable ])athological specimens. ^luch new apparatus has been added in the Physiologic and Electro-Thera- peutic departments. Stereopticon illustration is one of the leading features in our primary^ departments, and, in fact, no expense has been spared to most thor- oiighlj^ equip this College with the latest and best paraphernalia and equipment for. the teaching of modern medicine and surgery. Several thousand dollars in apparatus is being installed for the opening of our 1909-1910 session. On the third floor is located our Anatomical Department, and it is most complete in every detail. Opening into our main Anatomical Department, by sliding doors, is our anatomical amphitheater, seated with opera chairs and ar- ranged so that the most delicate operations and demonstrations upon the cadaver can be witnessed, a revolving table being used. All these features, and many J.\ SOITIIEHS CAIJFOUSIA. 89 iiHii-c, sci-\i' 111 iii;ilai-liaiii, F'rank Foi'i'cst Jones, Ivlward Doiifi'- la.s.s, M.I). Byron, K.dpli Louis Carter.

The movemcut for start iug an eclectic- college ht'gau in the Ahinieda County Eclectic Medical Society, which held its first regular meeting at the office of Dr. J. W. Webb in Oakland, Nov. 5, 1877. Its first president was Dr. O. P. Warren, and its secretary Dr. J. H. Bundy. Although the college was an Eclectic institution, originally the word Eclectic did not appear in the name. To correct this defect the trustees concluded to alter the name and make it conform to its teaching, so changed it to the California Eclectic Medical College, in which form it was legally adopted April 9, 190(i. The old college was completely destroyed by the earthquake and fire in April, lOOfi. After more than a year of uncertainty it was finally decided not to rebuild or open the college again in San Francisco; and after due delibera- tion its charter and goodwill were tendered to the Eclectic ])ractitiouers of Los Angeles and accepted. An entire new faculty, building and equipment were .secured in the short time of six weeks and the school opened in its new location on the appointed day with eight students in attendance. The work of the first year was emi- nently satisfactory, considering the inexperience of the promoters in such work and the many difficulties which had to be overcome. The second year the num- ber of students was increased by one, making nine names on the roster. The lease on the building occupied, at No. 846 Lyon street, was for two years and expired July 1, 1909. A new and better location was then secured at No. 337 South Hill street,' right in the heart of the city, where the college is now conveniently and comfortably established. A number of the local Eclec- tic physicians united in giving the institution financial backing .so that the col- lege has ac((uired no debts and has reasonably prospered. All the chairs on the faculty are filled and it was a pleasant surprise to find so much capable teaching talent in its members. The number of students for the current term is more than twice the number in either of the previous years — nine freshmen and twenty-two matriculated in all classes. The California Eclectic Medical Journal is the organ of the college, and is devoted to the development and welfare of Eclectic medicine on the Pacific Coast. Dr. 0. C. Welbourn is its editor.

SOUTHERN CALIFOENIA PRACTITIONER. This jiiui-iial. now in its twenty-tii'tii year, came into existence because there was a need a quarter of a century ago, of a periodical that would serve as a medium of intercourse among the members of the medical profession of Southern California. Its quarter of a century of useful existence has more than justified its reason for being, and it may be safelj- asserted that there have been few, if any, agencies that have worked so greatly for the unification of the pro- fession in Southern California as has this medical publication, which has ap- peared without lapse every month for the last twenty-five years. Its foundei-s were Drs. J. P. ^Vi(lney, Walter Lindlcy and .Inseph Kurtz. The spirit of its first editorials has been that which has dominated its career throughout, and as presenting the view point of the leaders of the pro- fession of this region a quarter of a century ago, it may be interesting to quote somewhat from several editorials of the first three issues of the magazine. From the Salutatory we take the following: "The question may be asked, Why add one more to the long li.st of medical journals? The answer is the old, stale one, which has probably ushered in the birth of many a similar pulilication. because we feel that for this journal there is a field and a work. "Of journals devoted to the science of medicine in general, there are prob- ably already enough. Of journals devoted to the wants and the local pecu- liarities of the different climatic belts of America, there will only be enough when every such climatic belt is represented. A reference to the opening ar- ticle of this number, The Anglo-Teuton in a New Home, will show what some of the race tjuestions are for the climatic belt embracing this southwestern portion of America. The article is the first of a series iijion similar topics. It is ex- pected to make this line of investigation an especial feature of the journal, and to take up and carefully discuss the climatic peculiarities of the different sec- tions distinctively known as Southern Califoruia, and of the great inland jila- teau embracing Arizona, Xew ]\rexico and the elevated jiart of the ^lexican in- terior, a region already widely known throughout the JIast and in Europe for its salubrity. It is the expectation of the editors to secure carefully-prepared articles from the ditferent portions of this belt descriptive of local peculiarities of climate and disease, for while certain climatic features are common to the whole, local variations and peculiarities are at many points strongly marked, and should he carefull.v considered before selecting a luune for invalids or health-seekei-s. Carefully-prepared oi-iginal articles upon medical aiul surgical topics will be sought and published, especially those of a practical character. It is hoped also to nuike this journal a means of still more closely uniting the medical i)rofession of Southern California. "Distance, rugged intervening mountains, and eiitirel.v diverse commercial and industrial interests, which are nmking of California two separate and dis- tinct sections, have also, in a great nu^asure, prevented a close union of the med- ical profession. Southei'u Califcu'iiia has developed its own intellectual life and 34 THE MEDICAL PROFESSION its own educational system. We believe the time has come for the establish- ment of its own medical journals and societies. "It is with no feeling of jealous rivalry, therefore, toward the journals of the upper portion of the State that we enter upon our work, but because we feel that the field is broad and our roads are different. In this spirit, we send greetings to our brethren of the north." From the second editorial on "What ^ledical ^leii Should Write," equally entertaining knowledge may be derived: "It has been said that a man never really knows a thing until he can tell it. The statement would be much more correct if it were that a man never really knows a thing until he can write it, for many a hazy, ill-understood and ill- defined idea daily passes muster in speech, the weakness of which would be de- tected in a moment if written. Nothing so conduces to accuracy of thought and clearness of expression as the habit of writing. "The effect upon the mind of much writing is seen in the members of the legal profession, a profession noted for the exactness of its mental work. Here the work of the profession is largely done in writing, and to the mental training thus given may be attributed much of the preponderating influence of the gen- tlemen of the law in public affairs. They simply are the men most trained to accurate thought. "The number of physicians who make a practice of writing upon topics pertaining to their profession is much smaller than it should be. "The ideal state of the profession would be with every physician a writer, at least every one in active practice ; for every man who takes the responsibility of human life upon his hands shovdd neglect no means of educating himself for the conscientious and successful practice of his high calling, and the habit of thinking upon paper is possil)iy of all means the most productive in solid results. This part of the professional work should not be left to the professors in medical colleges, or to men of literary taste. If they only were allowed to treat disease there might be some reason in it, but when all men in the active work of the profession must take daily upon themselves this responsibility, they have no moral right to neglect any means of education. "What shall a physician write about? "His own work. His own locality. These are his fields. He need not wait for some strange, seldom-heard-of case. While such cases do happen, they be- long rather to the curiosities of medical and surgical literature than to the prac- tical, every-day work of the physician's life. A plain, carefully studied, care- fully reported case of phthisis, or of fracture of one of the large bones will be of more profit to both writer and reader than an article upon morbus Addisonii or ligature of the common carotid. "A carefully and accurately compiled original report upon the topograph- ical and climatic features of any locality will be of far more value than an ambitious article upon the yellow fever microbe, which, from the pen of an ordinary practitioner, can be only copied from the writings of those who are making this line of investigation a specialty. "How shall he WTite? "In the plainest and shortest of Anglo-Saxon English. The busy man of any profession wants the facts and the logic, not the embellishment and rhetoric. The day for the stilted Latinized English of Milton and Johnson is gone, never to return to the English-speaking peoples. And so in science. While scientific and technical phraseology has its proper place and is indispensable within that place, many a medical and surgical article is loaded down with an ultra technical jargon which is simply barbarous. Such a style does not necessarily show knowledge. The editorial chair has in mind one such book upon its shelves, a LV SO VTHERN CA L I FORMA. 95 recent work iipdii iktvous diseases, which is such a bewildering medley of de- fective English, bad Latin, worse French and newly coined so-called scientific terms especially manufactured by the author to help out the combined poverty of these tongues, that to open its pages fairl}- makes the hair of a modest, quiet linguist stand erect. "Dear friends, beware of the too utterly utter, and read Job xxxvii:2. ""When shall he write? "Not simply when the spirit moves him, or some divine afflatus breathes upon him. The spirit is apt to cease moving one to write as cares and practice and money accumulate. It is better to let the sense of duty be the moving spirit. And it is a duty that he should pay back into the common fund of medical knowledge some small portion of the debt for that which he received, and should cease to be only a species of professional .sponge, ever absorbing, never produc- ing. And so .shall he not only pay his debt, but shall also grow in mental stature and professional power. "And when he has written, what then? "Then re-write. Condense. Strike out. Clear up the ambiguities. Erase the long word and use a shorter if it will express the idea. And when he can improve no more pick out the best and send it to a medical .journal for publica- tion. And above all let him remember that what is written carelessly and hur- riedly is generally of little worth ; and also remember that no man can afford, for his own sake, to have published what he has carelessly prepared."

Thu first nuiiibcr of this i)ul)lic:i1 iim, which was intendpcl to be a monthly journal of inediciiic and surgery and the allied seieiiees, came off the press in June, 1S!)5, under the editorship of Drs. J. F. T. Jenkins and A. Davidson, and having as collaborators the staff of the Los Ancjths I'ohjdink. The Pohjclinic existed for some fifteen months, and the publication was then discontinued. LOS ANGELES MEDICAL JOURNAL. The TjOS Angeles Mcdieal Journal first appeared Xovember 15, 1903. under the editorship of Ernest S. Pillsbury, ^l.D., of Los Angeles, and was stated to be a monthly journal devoted to medicine, surgery, dentistry, hospital and nursing. Subse(iuently Dr. Charles ii. Nichols became editor, and in 1906 the late James P. Hoothe, .M.D., assumed the editorship. The last number of this publication was issued in March, 1909, at whidi time it was merged into th(^ California Medical and Surgical Reporter. CALIFORNIA MEDICAL AND SURGICAL REPORTER. Tiiis is a monthly journal of medicine and surgery brought into existence by the late Charles P. Wagar. M.D., the first number appearing in January, 1905. Since his death in June. 1908, it has been published under the supervision of ^r. li. (;. Wauar as nuunrging editor. HISTORY OF THE MEDICAL PROFESSION IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. This publication, which is herewith placed in the hands of the reader, owed its origin to ilr. M. A. Haines, who persuaded Dr. George H. Kress to write an historical sketch and Dr. Walter Lindley an introduction for the work. While the book was being compiled, 'Sir. Raines' home was burned to the ground and much of the manuscript was lost. An accident at the printer's destroyed a consitlerable amount more. In the meantime, Jlr. Kaiiies fell heir to an estate of two hnndred and fifty thousand dollars in England and lost no time in returning to that country. I'uder these circumstances the Times Job Ol'lice took over the responsibilities of the publisher, the book being gotten into form and completed as far as possil)le by the editor. The first edition was printed and all the copies outside of the City of Los Atigeles were delivered, when the fearful I'atastrophe occurred which destroyed the Times plant. In the fire every plate and vestige of this volume were destl-oyed. In order to keej) faith with the subscribers who hail paid part of their sub- scriptions to Mr. Haines, it was necessary for the Times Office to print an entirely new edition, of which this volume is a copy. Whatever its defi'cts may he. and of course in a work of this kind many could l}e i>nintc(l out. the volume has at least served the purpose of gathering together a somewhat interesting array of historical and biogra]ihical data, which to those of a succeeding generation iiia>' not be witiiont some value, as it is hoped they will lie of interest to its present i-eaders and snlis<-ribers. laiu.incR.vpiiv.

After this book had gone to press, news was received of the death of Dr. E. C. Buell at Genoa, Italy, on July 26, 1910. For biographical data, the reader is referred to page 114. It may not be out of place to here print the resolutions passed by the California State Board of Med- ical Examiners. "Whereas, Dr. E. C. Buell, who had prac- ticed medicine and been noted as a surgeon in Los Angeles for over twenty years, and who was a member of the California State Board of Medical Examiners from 1901 to 1907, and who -served as the first president of the board, died of appendicitis in Genoa, Italy, July 26, 1910; therefore be it "Resolved, that we, the members of the California State Board of Medical Examiners in session assembled in San Francisco, August 1, 1910, hereby register our deep sorrow at the untimely taking away of our friend and confrere. "Dr. Buell was eminent in his professional work, universally respected by all physicians who knew him, and deeply beloved by those who were thrown in close association with him. "As a citizen he was honorable, upright and public spirited, as a man he was delight- ful, lovable and generous. One year ago he was moving into a beautiful residence to enjoy the well-earned comforts of an ideal home. In December, 1909, his wife suddenly died from an organic heart disease. This trip around the world, which his friends hoped would bring him surcease of sorrow and re- newed health, ended with a distressing death in a foreign land. "To his brother and sister in Ohio we send this as a testimonial of the high character of Dr. Buell, and the love and esteem that we bore him." THOMAS ALBERT DAVIS, M. D. Among the leading physicians and surgeons of Southern California stands the name of Thomas Albert Davis, whose early demise at the age of 42 occurred in San Diego on the last day of the year 1892. Dr. Davis was born in Fredericksburg, Md. Studied medicine in Missouri, graduating from the St. Louis Med- ical College. After his graduation he engaged in practice in Arnoldsville, Mo., but soon after- wards entered the army as an actg. asst. sur- geon, serving actively in the field with troops on the plains in protracted Indian campaigns, where on many occasions he exhibited great personal courage in attending to the wounded under fire. After leaving the army he prac- ticed in Soccoro, N. M., from whence he came 208 THE MKniCAL rilOl'ESSlOS to San Diego. His early death was due to pyemia, which he contracted from a patient with an infectious wound. His wife, who died some years later, was formerly Miss Nancy Jane Hosick of Leavenworth, Kansas. Three children survive the couple, John Henry, Mabel Sue and Carlotta Darcus. The estimate of his character, as understood by his fellow practitioners in San Diego, was best summarized in the dedication of a small work on climato.logy wherein its author, Dr. P. C. Remondino, dedicates jt to the memory of Thomas A. Davis, "a brave soldier, unassum- ing physician, exemplary citizen and true Christian." " P. C. R. EDWARD GROVE, M. D. FRANCIS LEADER HAYNES Gro\e, Edward, San Diego, Cal. Born in Rutherglen, Scotland, in 1873. Received the M. D. degree from the Cleveland University in 1897, and began practice in San Diego that year. Member of the California State Homeopathic Society, the Southern California Homeopathic Society, and of the San Diego County Medical Association. Was Vice-president of the Agnew Sanitarium, San Diego, and was a member of the Municipal Board of Health for a number of years. Was ex-president of the San Diego Chamber of Commerce and served the city in numerous capacities. Married Ynez Brad- shaw in 1899, and had one daughter. To the extreme regret of his many friends and patients, Dr. Edward Grove was the victim of an auto- mobile accident which happened while on a call of duty October 19, 1909. His loss as a physi- cian, a citizen and a friend is keenly felt by the whole community in which he resided. Haynes, Francis Leader, was born in Philadelphia, July 11, 1850; died in Los An- geles, October 18, 1898. He graduated from the Medical Department of the University of Penn- sylvania in 1869. On account of his youth he was not permitted to go upon the stage with his class. A frail, delicate boy of nineteen, yet he was, over several influential competitors, chosen as interne for the Episcopal Hospital. After eighteen months in the hospital, he began practice in Philadelphia, ju.st as he reached twenty-one. The practice that came to this beardless youth was phenomenal. On account of his health he came to Los Angeles in 1887. The following resolutions were adopted at the regular meeting of the Southern Cali- fornia Medical Society, held in Los Angeles in December, 1898, and tell of his position here: "Whereas, in the wisdom of Divine Provi- dence, Dr. Francis L, Haynes, one of our most active and valued members, has, in the prime of his manhood, been summoned from his earthly labors to receive his reward above, therefore be it " Resolved, That in his death we recognize that the foe with whom we are engaged in an eternal combat has taken from our ranks one who cannot well be spared, and one who, by his works, has not only reflected honor upon the society which he adorned, but also upon the community in which he has so success- fully followed his profession. "Resolved, That the committee desire, in behalf of the society, to express its deep ap- preciation of a faithful, talented, skillful mem- ber, who ever will be regarded as having been an apostle in Southern California in promulgat- ing the doctrines of aseptic surgery, and w'hose efforts here have given an impetus to local surgery, which will be felt for many years to come. L\ SOUTHERN CALIFORSIA. 209 "Resolved, That the committee, also in behalf of the society, desires to express its acknowledgment of his superior surgical skill; of the courtesy universally shown by him to those who desired to profit by his knowledge; and of his efforts towards furnishing the local profession with trained nurses. "Resolved, That this report be spread upon the minutes of the society, and that the sec- retary be instructed to furnish copies to his brothers and sisters and his aged father. Ceph.a.s L. Bard, Chairman. H. B. Wing. Carl Kurtz." Dr. Haynes was the author of numerous articles on surgical subjects, in all of which he made prominent the importance of asepsis. The articles which he wrote then would be considered up to modern ideas today.
