The former law prohibited persons from practising medicine in any of
its branches unless graduates of a medical college or unless they were
shown by examination to be qualified and had been actually engaged in
practising for at least ten years (Compiled Laws of Dakota, s. 205).
FEE.—To the treasurer of the board, for examination, $20 (Act 1890, c.
93, s. 3).
OHIO.
QUALIFICATION.—No person who is not a graduate of a reputable school
of medicine in the United States or a foreign country, or who cannot
produce a certificate of qualification from a State or county medical
society and is not a person of good moral character, can lawfully
practise or attempt to practise medicine in any of its departments or
prescribe medicine for reward or compensation; except a person who has
been continuously engaged in the practice of medicine for ten years or
more. The law allowed persons in continuous practice for five years
or more, two years to comply with its provisions. In case a person is
a graduate of a school of medicine in any State or foreign country in
which any condition or restriction is imposed by law upon the practice
of medicine by graduates of medical schools in Ohio, he is subject to
the same restrictions or conditions. A person violating this section
is not entitled to any compensation for services (Smith & Benedict’s
Revised Statutes of 1890, s. 4,403).
PENALTY.—Whoever prescribes or practises or attempts to practise
medicine in any of its departments, or performs or attempts to perform
a surgical operation without having attended two full courses of
instruction and graduated at a school of medicine either in this or a
foreign country, or who cannot produce a certificate of qualification
from a State or county medical society, except a person who has been
continuously engaged in the practice of medicine for ten years or more,
is punishable with a fine of from $50 to $100 and for a subsequent
offence with imprisonment for thirty days. Persons in continuous
practice for five years or more were allowed two years to comply with
this act (_ib._, s. 6,992).
OKLAHOMA.
QUALIFICATION.—No person can lawfully practise medicine in any
department unless he be a graduate of a medical college, or unless upon
examination before a board composed of the superintendent of public
health and two other physicians to be selected by the territorial board
of health, he be found proficient in the practice of medicine and
surgery, and shall be found upon proof to have been actually engaged
in the practice of medicine not less than five years. No person shall
practise medicine unless he be of good moral character, and is not an
habitual drunkard.
