the necessities for the improvements sug.

Consultation ofInnrnary Needs.

rrom 6yEla fsepupncan
A large meeting of the Trustees of the
several townships, and others interested in
the care of the poor and insane in our Coun-
" Infirmary, met, by request, at the Court
house, last Saturday, to consider the best
mode of making their condition more COM
Portable. Every township was represented,
and q full statement was made by the com
missioners, officers of the Infirmary, and
visiting committee, of the actual condition
of the institution, and the plans proposed
to improve it.
After full consideration of the matter,
it was resolved to appoint a committee to
visit the Infirmary, and after thorough in
spection, make q report In the afternoon,
of the result Of their observations. The
following wellknown gentlemen were ap-
pointed said committee:
VIM II. Wood, Brighton; E. A. Tuney,
Amherst: n. r. Sheldon, Pittsfield; N B.
Gates, Elyria; : Barnes, Rochester. The
committee spent two hours in examination
OF the building and the condition of the in
mates, and all were convinced ofthe neces-
sity Of taking immediate steps to remedy
the evils complained Of They found the
main building, as has been represented, al
most destitute Of the means by which it
can be heated with any regard to comfort
or health, and the department occupied by
the insane, absolutely unified for the home
of that unfortunate class, by lack of venti-
lation and water facilities. The building
was also examined with special reference
TO the proposed changes, and all agreed that
while the main edifice could be made COM
Portable by steam heating, 1t was impossi-
BILE to suitably provide for the insane with
out erecting an annex especially designed
for their accommodation The cost of the
proposed improvement. as estimated by
experts employed for that purpose, was
also considered, the whole amounting to
about eighteen thousand dollars.
In the afternoon the committee reported
the result of their observations In substance
as tollows:s
First, thereis no room in the present building
for the ffy-nine inmates, hfteen Of whom are pro-
yided for among the insane The building Il too
crowded for health or convenience There are
only seven or eight small stoves to heat the main

PRoF. w. W. Ross, Superintendent of
Fremont Public Schools is being talked OF
as candidate on the Democratic ticket for
State School Superintendent They could
could hardly do better, as Mr.. Ross is not
only well qualified for the Office, but
would poll the full vote of his party, but
wonld also have the support of a large
number Of Republicans in the northern
part of the State, by whom he is highly
esteemed. We append two from the many
favorable press notices he has received:
Fremont Daily Republican,
The Columbus correspondent of the
Cleveland Leader February 18th, in speak
ing Of the probable candidates on the
Democratic State ticket this fall, mentions
three men, one of whom is our respected
citizen, w. W. Ross. who for many years
has been Superintendent of the Fremon,
Public Schools. Prof. Ross also held the
Office of State Examiner under State
Commissioner Burns. He is competent
and would make good officer, and if q
Republican does not officiate in that capa
city, Sandusky county people would b
unanimous for Prof. Ross.

The success OF the Domes-
tic is due to the fact that
its manuf eturers have
always aimed to produce
the best, without regard TO
cost, believing that real
merit must win. As the
result of this policy, It
stands to-day an unparal-
leled example of meritori-
Gus success. Contrast this
record with the claims of
the many imitators, of the
Domestic and draw your
own conclusions as to their
relative merits.
