CHIROPRACTORS WIN IN COURTS.
Nashville, Tonn., Dee. 19.—Chlropnie-
tors may prnctlco Uieir profession in
Mu Btate of Tennessee, according to a
ruling blinded down Saturday by the
Supreme Court in a test ease appeal
ed from tho MompHis Circuit Court;
whoso verdict- against the Chiropractors
wns reversed by the higher tribunal. Tin-
ease was llmt of I’. R, Norman ct ul.
vs. Maude Ilsstlngs et al. The court
held that chiropractors cannot lie pro
hibited from practicing their science nf
healing in this Slate, the oidnion in this
rase I icing prepared and deliverel for
the court by Chief Justice hniidieu,
reversing the ihteree nf tlie ehnneellor.
This ease wns brought to enjoin Hie
defendants from treating persons • oe
cording to the chiropractic method, on
the ground that they hnd not complied
with the general statutes regulnilng the
prnetiro of medicine, which prohibits the
practice of any honling art without n
license Issued after examination, and re
quiring, ns a condition to obtaining a
license, that the applicant for a license
most pursue n course o( study covering
ninny subjects which rhiroprnetors have
no occasion to apply and which they do
not study*. Holding llmt chiropractors
cannot lie classed with nlinrlnlans and
fakers, since tho method of healing' is
well developed nod recognized In many
jurisdictions, and there lasing no evidenco
in the ease tlmt this method of treat
ment is in any way injurious to the hu-
mnn body, the court held that a require
moot that chiropractors must study and
be examined on subjocta in no way per
taining to tliolr occupation constitutes
nn arbitrary and unreasonable attempt
lo restrict their liberties mid tho liberty
of tlie people who wish lo patronize them,
such requirements Imvlng nn reasonable
tendency to profnotc the public safety
and welfare.
* The court stilted that they rcoognized-
fully tho power of the Legislature to reg.
ulhtn the practice of this method of heal
ing by appropriate legislation, either
through the present boards of mndlcnl
examiners or through boards of exami
ners specially created for tho purpose,
Imt stated that nn innocont business can
not lie prohibited under the guise of
regulation.
