Court | Oregon Supreme Court |
Appeal from circuit court, Umatilla county; Stephen A. Lowell Judge.
J.M Ferdon was committed to the custody of William Blakley sheriff, on the charge of itinerantly vending medicine without a license, contrary to statute, and he applied for a writ of habeas corpus. From a judgment dismissing the writ and remanding petitioner, he appeals. Reversed.
J.H Raley, for appellant.
D.R.N. Blackburn, Atty. Gen., and H.J. Bean, Dist. Atty., for respondent.

The writ having been dismissed, and the petitioner remanded to the custody of the defendant, he appeals.

It provides for the appointment of a board of examiners of three persons, from among the physicians of the state, and for the punishment of any person practicing medicine or surgery without a license from such board, unless he was practicing within the state at the time of the passage of the act. It prescribes in detail the qualifications necessary to entitle an applicant to a license, and the duties of the board of examiners, and declares who shall be regarded as practicing medicine, within the meaning of the act. Section 11, as amended in 1891, and under which the petitioner was arrested and committed, provides that ...
