EASTERN LUHATIC ASYLUM.
After the secret session was over, Mr..
Loyenstein submitted the report OF the
special Committee on the Eastern Lunatic
Asylum, which was laid on the table and
ordered to be printed, and the Senate then
adjourned.
The report says that the asylum is in ex-
celent condition; that the books and ac-
counts are correct and well kept; that the
present administration were literally sup
piled with means to make improvements
which the former administration knew
were necessary, but did not have the means
to carry out. That when the present adj.
ministratiOn came in none OF the male en-
ploy6S who were Democrats and Straight
out Republicans were retained. That in
the purchase OF local supplies 1t was un-
derstood none but those in sympathy with
the Coaitionists could sell to the institu-
ton, as the public and private utterances
OF the Superintendent and other officials
were to the effect that the patronage OF the
ASYLUM would be welded in the interest OF
their party. That the superintendent was
an active politician, and during the whole
administration was superintendent OF his
party in the county, and that his public
and private speeches were such as to in-
flame the community against him and the
institution.
The report is signed by seven out OF the
eight members OF the committee.
It say blidJ 80 tht ~ NSi'
ture has already taken action with respect
to the asylum it is only necessary to re-
commend that hereafter the officers and
employees be prohibited from taking any
active part in politics. as their whole time
should be given their official duties.
