Does Not Boliove in the Exclusion ol Medi cine and Surgery. Among the measures vetoed last week by Governor Pennypacker was the bill which was designed to put osteopaths on the level with the other schools of medicine. Its pro visions included a regulation of the practice ot and licensing of osteo paths in Pennsylvania and the es tablishment of a board of examiners representing the State Osteopathic association, before whom all candi dates must pass before legally be ginning the practice of the profes sion. The governor's main objection is on tne ground that ' there is noth ing in the bill to indicate what con stitutes the science of osteopathy and an effort to solve the query by an examination of the printed lit erature of the science is not very successtul " Continuine. he savs: "That an proval of this bill would appear to give tnc authority of the state to a system of practice in the healinc art which excludes the use of medicine and the use of surgery. Why should there be an attempt so to confine the operation of the mind? If both drugs and surgery are useless they may De rejected, but if they should at times be found to be beneficial why should any science for the en forcement of a theory make the effort to exclude their use? Should the bill become a law licenses would be issued by the State Board of Os teopathic Examiners and not by the Medical Council of Pennsylvania, which would be an anomaly in our legislation upon the subject." 1903 Ballot Law Valid Supreme Court So Decided. Two Justioea Dissenting The Suweme Court on Mnnrlau with two lUStices dissenting, affirm. ed the validity of the Pennsylvania uauoi iaw passed uy the legislature in the session of 1903. The de cision is a defeat for the State Ballot Reform Association. The latter organization hmncrtir the law to the attention of the courts on the eround that the cronninir candidates and the placing of the yuuy square on tne Dauot was il legal. It is now TJronospd tn HiufranMiico the man who fails to vote for a cer tain length of time. This couutry is as much in danger from the stay-at-home voter as it is fpom the illegal voter. Both classes should be suppressed. IN THE COUNTY .5 Proposed Amendment to Demooratio Rales.

P. Gray Meek, J. K. P. Hall, Secretarj. Chairman. Bills Now State Law Three measures of special interest to corporations and manufactures, as well as to organized labor in Penn sylvania, were signed this week by Governor Pennypacker. They are a bill creating a state department of police; the uarner bill, to abolish child labor in the anthracite coal mines, and Delaney bill, to abolish child labor in factories and work shops. The department of police bill carries an appropriation of 452,000, and is in line with governor's re commendation to the legislature. The bill creates the office ot state superintendent of police, who will have under him four platoons of 50 men each. Each platoon will have a captain, lieutenant and five, ser geants, to do duty in any part cf the state. The Garner bill was drafted at the request of John Mitchel, presi dent of the United Mine Workers, and prohibits the emplyment of children under 14 years of age arouud the outside of the coal mines, and under 16 years of age on the inside of such mines, as well as provides that all employees under 21 must read and write. The Delaney bill is a compromise on the measures introduced at the request of the Pennsylvania Child Labor Committee and kindred or ganizations. It raises the ace limit of children employed in factories from 13 to 14 years. It fixes ten hours as a legal day's work and authorizes school authorities to issue employment certificates. . .-e.
