The first toast was : "Medical
legislation for the protection of the
people and not for the bonolit of the
physicians. " Hon. E. llosowator re
sponded :
It may bo in accord withtho eternal
fitness of things that I should bo call
ed upon to respond to the toast. If
I had boon called upon some years
ago , when I was connected with legis
lation of this character , I should have
resented it. Eleven years ago I was
sent to the legislature from this coun
ty I then thought that the doctors
needed protection against quacks. I
found it up hill work to do anything
with a bill drafted for that purpose.
I was confronted at every point.
, They called mo"Obstctrio"Roso water.
When the bill had passed the house
and got to the senate , it was moved
to have it referred to the committee
on internal improvement. It was referred -
ferrod not to that commiHoo , but
to the committee on highways
and bridges. The bill was finally
passed. I enrolled it myself and my
friend MoDonagJi , then clerk of the
house , returned it to the senate after it
was signed by the speaker. I went
back to Omaha for a tow days and on
my return found that the bill had
boon emasculated. The penalty clause
was left out and the bogus bill had
been signed by the governor. The
opoakor Collins who had signed the
bogus bill was liable to Impeachment.
Ho promised to have the omitted sec
tion added , but failed to do so. Col
lins became a quack doctor a few
years ago , and is now superintendent
of the boys reform school. Ho is just
the man to run a reform school.
Nebraska needs legislation to pro
tect it against quacks. There are
probably two or throe hundred in
this state ni > bettor than Mumoy and
Aldrich. It is a great crime against
humanity to trillo with human lifo.
1 ho last legislature passed a bill , but
i. falls short of what is needed.
Legislators are always afraid that
some old woman livintj in the neigh
borhood will bo barred from minister ,
ing to the wants of the sick that it is
exceedingly hard to secure proper
legulation ,
There is no legislation worthy of
mention yet , but you have made the
first stop. I hope Nebraska will soon
have laws on this subject as well An
other states.

'i ' .y follow guests and my follow citi
zens , i.i the progress of your young
aud promising institution in this con-

1 regarding the souls committed to their

. tion to us to bo found
leas ncalous about souls than physi
cians charged with the physical care
of their patients. Gentlemen , if your
. souls are , by a figure of speech , in our
hands as caro-takcis , it is gratifying
to us to find our bodies at least per-
. Fonally as well cared for as your souls.
This is a very satisfactory balance ol
power oil the part of your guests ol

association , during a long minittcrial
, career , with medical men I was often
shamed into greater zeal by their
ollorts in favor of their patients. Lol
mo take leave to give a word
, of advice to your graduates and younj
doctors and regarding the paramounl
importance of close and persevering
study of the best niodical works ; anc

Ilev. Mr. Cotoland was called upon
; to respond to the toast : ' 'Tho effects
of the higher development of the in
tellectual faculty upon the anatomy
; and physiology of the human race. "
, Ho said : "It has fallen to mo to fill
the place of Prof. Aughoy of the
state university. I know but litilo of
Anatomy. When it comes to the ef
, fects of the higher education upon
the anatomy of man I am at sea.
, This toast led to my remembering the
. discovery of certain differences in the
jaws of the present race of men and
; that of the mound-builders. It ap
peared from recent discoveries of
-
mound-builders' skulls that the tooth
which usually came late in life now
came early and remained longer. The
human mouth is smaller now , but \V9
talk longer. Thcro arc also
changes in the brain , its
, texture etc. Brains in the past
were about as largo as now. But now
the convolutions are very much
deeper aud the tezturo finer. With
moderns the brain dome has been
coming forward and giving the hieh ;
forehead of civilization.
To the toast of "Omaha , " Mayor
Boyd said :
MK. PRKSIIJENT , LADIKS AND GEN
TLEMAN : It is buc a few hours since ]
know that I was expected to respond
to this toast , and while much might
. bo said about our thriving and pros-
parous city , I came not hero prepared
. to speak of her advantages or pros
pects. Certainly no city in the Mis
souri valley has a brighter future be
fore it than ours. Surrounded by a
country whose soil is as fertile as nvy
in the world , with a climate equal to
. any in the same latitude , with u min
ing and grazing country behind
us depending to a great extent
, upon us for their supplies.
there is nothing to hinder ourgro > vth ,
nnd wore it not for the Into unfortu
nate agitation of the labor question ,
the present year would have witness
ed more extensive improvements than
any previous ono. I trust now , that
quiet is once aioro restored , and that
the acrimony engendered ajminst the
officers ot our city and county , fur
performing their duty , and protecting
laborer * in their peaceful pursuits ,
will soon disappear , and.tht . t capital
ists will use their moans' in giving em
ployment to labor at remunerative
prices.
The Omaha of to-day is quite difi'or-
eHt from the Omaha of ton years ago.
Each year wltncssoth the erection of
a bettor , a more substantial , and amore
moro beautiful class of buildings. Our
public buildings and our schools
especially are superior to those usually
found in cities the size of ours , and
the Omahu Medical College , the
school in which you , gentlemen , uro'
interested , although of recent origin ,
is an honor to its founders as well ns
an ornament and a valuable accession
not only to our city , but to the whole
state. . Pone say * "Tho proper study
of mankind is man. " You , ircntlompn ,
arc making the study of mankind
tho.lubor of your life , for the noble
and glorious purpose of administer
ing to the body diseased. With your
profession surely knowledge is power.
The greater your knowledge the great
er your power for good and the less
liable you are to make mistakes. Wn
are lold that to err is human , but
your profession should never err. You
have the advantage of other men , however -
over , in that the sun shines upon
your successes , while the earth hides
vour blunders. The physician should
bo a man entitled to our utmost confi
dence. Ilo visits us at a time when
all restraint is thrown aside , at a time
when our actions and language are
IK ) t influenced by cautious considera
tion and ho often hours
and sees many things that
unless kept secret and inviolate would
ruin many happy households. While
aa I said with the physician knowl
edge Is power , with his patients ignor
ance is bliss.
The profession should never bo fol-
owed as a physio giving , money mak
ing business. A physician should bo
unselfish , full of kindness and the
very aoul of honor , and you gentle-

.at ! & study , nnornor purpose than
that of healing his ills and advice from
mo might bo something like your own
medicine , easy to tjivo , but bitter to
tire taste.
Gentlemen , 1 am glad to bo with
you in the banquetting-room. I thank
you for the honor , and wish you in
yourundortaking the greatest success. "
The next toast was "Tho medical
profession in the volunteer army. "
Gen. Thayer responded as follows :
Recalling the very pleasant and kind
relation existing between your presi
dent and myself , 1 asked to bo excus
ed from making a speech to-night. I
was very flatly refused. Our p08' "
lions have reversed. There wai a
time when I was the superior. Ho
never asked to bo excused when there
was duty to perform and fighting to
bo done. 1 am embarrassed by not
being accustomed to speaking , and
of a retiring disposition , which my
friend Brooks will vouch for , as wo
are a good deal alike. I desire to ut
ter a few words of admiration and
commendation to the gentlemen win
have established tlm Omaha medica'
college. Until to-day I did not real
ize what they are doing. It is an
honor to Nebraska , and I trust tha
its first fruits shall bo duplicated and
increased many fiold. 1 can bear tea
timony to the efllconcy of the
medical department in the army
There nro many departments ant
each is necessary to tno complelcnesi
of the army , Without a orgwellan
ized medical department no army wil
stay long in the fiold. The mcdica
service of our volunteer army was the
iuporior of that of any of the armies
that have fought the great battles o'
the world. It was the duty of tin
medical men to be around constant ! ;
and to accompany the ranks to
bear the sulFeriiiK and the dyinj
to the roar. They were often ii
imminont'poril , when shot and shol
tore through the hospitals. All honor
to them. May they bo honored b ;
your kind attention und may they bo
successful in making their college ono
of the permanent and great institu
tions of Nebraska.
To the toast "Tho press as a moans
of instruction in the eanitary laws applicable
plicablo to the daily lifo of the com
munity , " Datus 0. Brooks said- Edi
tors are supposed to bo well posted on
this matter , as they are generally
piutly level headed. The press gen
orahy finds out what is necessary to promote
mete and encourage for public health.
Who over thought of asking an editor
tor to look after the matter of water
works and sowers. A mistake has
evidently occurred in the asaigmnoni
of my toast , and accordingly I must
ask to bo excused.
Mrs. D. C. .Brooks responded to
the toast , "Tho practice of medicine
aa an occupation for women , " She
stated that she should prefer to say
something complimentary to this col-
lega enterprise , and the co-education
of men and women at an institution
established in Omaha. The dawning
of. this glad era is coming in this
city."Tho
"Tho physician's wife" called for
response irom Mrs Dr. Matthowaon.
but she delegated her powers to Dr.
ColFman. Ho advised all young phy
sicians to got nurricd.
Mrs. Dr. Matthowson then arose
and congratulated Dr. ColFman upon
his improvement since his marriage
about eight years ago. She then unit
that she was aware that there was the
greatest field for a physician' *
wife. She related a very inter
esting story concerning the experience
with her husband at the retiremenl
of the union army under Gen. Banks ,
after their defeat. She thought there
ii as much work for women in this
world as for men. She was glad to
see the ladies present and hoped to
see them graduate with as high hon
ors as their brother students.
Mrs. Matthowson's remarks , al
though entirely extempore , were en
thusiastically received and she was
very heartily applauded.
"Tho medical profession" wao
handsomely responded to by
Dr. Abbott. Ho said that no
body of men have grow batter
represented the interests of Nebras
ka better than the physicians. This
state has a great future before it. II
is destined to bo the great agricul
tural state of the Union. The cli
matic influences of the state develop
peculiar diseases , , and it is much bet
tor that wo have physicians who are
educated on our soil.
"The Omaha Medical College" was
responded to by President Livingston ,
and "Tho Clam of 1882" by Dr.
llomstoud , after which at a late hour
the banquet came to a close.
