THE KELLEY CURE.
SENATOR STROM'S bill for the care
and cure OF inebriates came up under
special orders.
Mr.. GILL spoke in behalf OF the bill, of
its good effects on men, and said there
were 500 men in the state who had been
cured at the Kelley cure establishments.
Mr.. KELLOGG characterized the bill as
establishing monopoly. He conceded
all that could be said in favor of the Kelley
cure, but there were others as good.
Mr.. TWlCHELL spoke in favor of the
bill.
Mr.. HANNA was specially strong in his
remarks. 1t had been adopted by the
government at the soldiers homes, and
statistics show that 5,400 out of 5000 old
veterans who have taken the remedies
We're permanently cured. He quoted Mrs.
T. 3: Walker. Bishop Stanley and Mayor
Eustis, who claimed that men who had
been sent to the WOrkhouse as many as
tWcnty-nine times, had been reclaimed and
it was right to extend to those who wanted
to recover a helping hand.
Mr.. FLEMING opposed the bill because
other establishments were excluded.
Mr.. MCLACHLAN ridiculed the idea of
temperance legislators favoring a bill
OF this kind nd-favoring maintaining prl-
vate institution of this kind at public ex-
pense.
Mr.. NlERL1NG regarded it inconsistent
and unreasonable to thrust such an insti-
tuition upon the state. Ii it is true that
there are 1900 men in this prohibition state
who have taken the Kelley cure under
prohibition it was time to 90 back to the
time when we did not need the Kelley
cure.
Mr.. GILL said the institution had in
vested S2500O in its establishment at Fargo
and was doing great good. There was
nothing in the way of others being estab-
ished.
Mr.. McLACHLAN said Fargo would not
be deprived OF the benefits it this bill did not
pass, nor would the cure be denied to those
Mr.. fWICHELL urged it as an eco.
nOmic measure. 1t was in the interest of
our own state to lift men out of their dis
grace, where they were parasites, and
make them producers of wealth an tax
payers.
Mr.. HANNA defended his statistics,
and spoke for the physical and MOI al
wrecks brought back to their pride of man
hood.
Mr.. SIMPSON spoke with great depth of
feeling in favor Of the bill. Of the unfortu-
mates made better men, lifted up, saved to
make home happier and to make provision
for wife and little ores who had before
suffered from this disgrace. He regarded
drunkenness a disease, and thought it our
duty to help the suffering. The benefit
was to the whole state-not to Cass county
or Fargo. 1t was to humanity. Every safe
guard had been thrown around the bill. 1t
was not compulsory; but it would be lawful
to help them.
Mr.. SARGENT was glad to receive the
slurS, if they were to be cast on those favor
ing this bill. 1t was in line with prohibi-
ton, and to save the victims from alcohol
ism their legitimate work.
Mr.. RICHARDS opposed the bill
Mr.. SMITH characterized it as a mOnOp-
oily with no recourse from its exactions-
the device OF millionaire who sought en-.
dorsement as an advertisement He would
favor the bill as originally introduced: but
not with its monopoly feature.
The bill was lost-22 to 36-and then re-
considered and made IL special order for to
day at 2:30.
