Newton County to Become Part of Medical Society.

The Jasper County Medical So ciety met here a few nights ago and elected officers for the ensuing year. Dr. E. Besser, of Remington, was chosen .president; Dr. John G. Kenneman, of Goodtand, vicop resident; Dr. M. D. Gwin, of Rensselaer, secretary, and Dr. E. N. Loy, of Rensselaer, treasurer. It was then planned to take Newton bounty into the society and to give it the name ofthe Jadper-Newton Medical Society;-The next two meetings of the society are to be held at Remington, owing to its central location. After thgt the meetings will be held about with the different members, along the lines followed the past year. The physicians are planning to start a plan of aseer■taining who the persons are who fail to pay their ddetor’s bills and to enter into a contract to refuse to make calls upon them unless the cash is paid for the calls. This will not interfere at all with charity business or with calls ifor those who are actually unable to pay, but it will be done to compel those who are able to pay to do so.
