For a juggling Of the warts Of ig-
ncrance the above is a good exam
pie. Either our esteemed friend is
disloyal to his party or he must con-
TESS that in his Ignorance he knew
no better. Sherit's never waste
time and money in conveying in
sane subjects TO the hospital. They
are paid for their services. The
people do not expect TO have their
business done for nothing. Sherifs
were allowed So q day and actual
expenses. But the law with refer.
ence to the guards coming and tax
ing insane patients was passed by
the populist legislature of 81. 1t
provides for their conveyance by the
state and the payment Of the ex-
pense by the state. Merely the
actual expenses of the guard are
paid. Nothing more. He must be
an employee Of the hospital and
receives a salary of not to exceed $50
q month. For the benefit Of our
esteemed friend we submit the fol-
lowing information which he can
add to the very limited amount he
possesses.
