the forces OF evil which through the agency Of Tam

THE KINGS COUNTY INSANE

The question of transferring the insane pa
,ients in the care Of Kings County to the State
is 70 come before the Board of Supervisors in
BROOKLYN at their meeting today. Action on
this matter has been postponed SO long that it
is almost too late TO hope for the passage OF the
necessary bill by the Legislature Certainly the
advocates of the change can expect nothing this
wear unless action is taken at once. That the
general public interest demands the transfer
is admitted by all who are familiar with the
facts The administration of the Charities De

nection with the work. over S30O0.000 of the
taxpayers money has been swallowed up there,
and vet no relief worth speaking Of has been
provided for the OvercrOwded asylum in Flat
bush.
Nor is there much hope Of Improvement under
the present method of administration. The
people have lost all faith in 81. JOhnland and
would gladly have il off their hands. The asy-
lum at Flatbush is shockingly Overcrowded. and
the condition of the patients housed there Is
practically hopeless. Al a recent public hearing
on this question the Rev. Dr.. StorrS made Il
most earnest speech. in which hc referred to the
hacking Of patients in this institution like sar-
dimes I'm a box and said Il would as soon

STRIKING At THE TIT1L PART

Senator Smith. Of New-Jerscy. in view of re-
cent elections. might have been expected to op-
pose the pending Tariff bill. But his speech
against il was of unquestOncd force and merit
and was evidently considered for some time
prior 10 the elections Like Senator HILL he
reserves in the main what he has 10 say Of
the tariff part of the bill for another OCCASION
and yet makes it clear that that part as il
stands requires alteration. Reform the sched-
ules TO conform with the doctrine Of q tariff for
revenue grant to our industries sufficient pro-
lection 10 guarantee their maintenance on the
basis Of American wages" says Mr.. Smith. or
God save the Democratic party" The words
are enough 10 show that the Senator does not
think the tariff part Of the bill fit 10 be passed
But his speech is mainly devoted 10 the section
alsm and the niusticc of the income tax. In
his opinion, "cvcn the misrule Of the Rcpub-
licans is 10 be- preferred 10 the communism OF
