that the past has shown X to be futile. He

The question of mans politics ought not
to be considered in the appointment of any
man as superintendent or attendant in any
of the State institutions. / think these per-
sons ought to be selected wholly for ascer-
tanned fitness to perform the duties. SUI
perintendents and employees ought to be
men who can properly care for the unfortu-
nate placed in their care. The law ought
to require that they should be selected sole
ly for their qualification and adaptability to
the business. No one would think of en-
ploying other than trained nurses for hos
pital work where only the body was aling,
but in so far as the mind is superior to
the body In the same measure Is it more
important to have trained and competent
people in control of the insane. The pat
ronage amounts to nothing to the party,
and is not worth consideration
