ABOLISH THE INEBR1ArE Asylum

ABOLISH THE INEBRIATE 4SYLClM.
The Board of Directors of the Minnesota
Temperance Union sent protest to the
Senate yesterday demonstrating against the
proposition of The GLOBE to change the In
ebriate Asylum into an Insane Asylum. The
remonstrance declares that the building is
not adapted to the use of the insane. This
is all bosh. There is class of insane which
any comfortable building will protect, and
building adapted to the use of inebrlates
can be readily adapted to the insane.
The buildings at Rochester are incomplete
and as the peculiarities of the insane asylum
consist in the internal arrangements, that
portion of the building can still be adapted
to the change.
The plan proposed by the Temperance
Union will practically retain the Inebriate
Asylum as an additional State. institution, for
the union will always be calling for State
aid. We have all the paternal government
that is desirable already, and our State pub
lie institutions are costing more now than
the people can afford to pay.
But if there was no other reason for trans
forming the Inebriaie Asylum into some
thing else it would be owing to its improper
location. Such an institution should be 10
Gated within easy access both of st. Paul
and Minneapolis. There is no greater incen-
tive to drunkenness than idleness. You can
must be given employment and congenial
employment. In Chicago splendid Inebri-
ate Asylum is maintained, and it is located
in the city within two miles of the central
business part of the city. Mr.. Wilkin
the very competent superintendent of the
institution declares that giving the inmates
employment is the greatest aid to reform
they have. Upon recent visit to that insti-
tuition, we found there mechanics, book
keepers, editors, clerks, &C., who made that
their headquarters, their home, but who daily
went to their regular business as much as
though they were residing at their own
homes. This employment is the great safe
guard.
At Rochester the opportunity for giving
employment does not exist. The inmates
must NOPE about Gstless and idle, and take
the chances of that temptation which idle
ness brings.
If there was only this reason, that would
be all the argument necessary to make the
change. The State may lavish money OF
this scheme and that, but it will never be
made success. If the transfer is made al
once the State will secure good investment

that il would not be always convenient to meet to-

Considerable discussion followed as to the

that il should not be called 1.-The Greenback

there was such an association which had political
objects. General Ewing suggested that il he called

If any Of those who opposed 10 silver imitation
of the most ruinous kind still hope that the tide OF
repudIatlOn can be stayed in either House OF Con-
oress the votes of last Friday and to-day ought to
open their eyes TO the unwelcome fact that their
hope is entirely without foundation. No future
event is more certain than that the Bland bill Will
be sent to the President for his signature that 1t
will be passed over his veto III the House without
debate and that if it does not receive the requisite
two-thirds in the Senate to put it on the statute
hook it will lack not more than one two votes of
it.
There was time when genuine hard work might
have had some effect upon the sentiment in both
Houses of Congress, and it is still possible that one
third of the Senate may be saved but to accomplish
even this will require more harmony i'll the Republi
can party than has heretofore existed, and an earn
e,tness and zeal that has only been shown by the
advocates OF silver.
The battle ground of the future is to be in the
Senate. One vote there may turn the scale TO one
side or the other, and the sooner the advocates of
honest currency get together and devise some plan
Of campaign and consolidate their lines, tho better
will be the chance Of Never did the Rcpub
lican party in the Senate have greater
opportunity. The divisions in Its ranks
are no greater than they were during the Win
ter of 1s74-75. The advocates Of the remonctiza-
ton of silver are 10 more in earnest and scarcely
more numerous on the Republican side Of the Senate
than were the Greenback lnllatonists when General
Grant called Halt with his veto and yet the
marty was then brought together and finally voted
as a unit, for theIact under which the country in
ne of the imperfectons in the law has gone so far
on the road to specie payments.
The great leaders of the Republican party in the
Senate now hare an opportunity, by the aid OF the
Presidents Veto to stop the Silver Bill, and prevent
if from becoming a law; but they will never do 1t
unless they adopt different tactics from those thus
far pursued They will never DO it until they assert
their leadership aud use every influence which they
can command for the accomplishment Of this great
object.
