hrs. Kent's Views
The Herald is in receipt OF two cum
munications referring to the county hos
pitai. One is from Mrs. Landt. which
denies the statement published in
contemporary to the effect that she alb
straoted milk from the hospital for the
purpose of having it analysed. Mrs.
Landt SAYS that the milk she had tested
was gwen to her by the matron. Mrs.
O'Neal, IN the presence of Mrs. Nelie
Gleason. Mrs. Landt aids:
That good results have followed the in
spection of the hospital milk know,
because in my visits since the patients
tell me, with smiles, The milk is good.
One woman SAYS she knows she Is get
ting pure milk; whereas, before the in-
spention, she got a cup of water with
about two tablespoonfuls OF milk. Ana
not alone is the improvement in the milk
perceplbtle. but .he food is better; very
much better at the nurses table, ana
satisfactory to the patients.
The deputy sheriff pro tenn, who W
placed Oh guard, 1t has been said, by the
special order of the honorable board OF
supervisors, to assist DR.. Barber in pro-
tecting the hospital milk-pan from the
too Gloss scrutiny of the taxpayers wives,
has gone back to his legitimate business
The second letter is from Mrs. Mary
Kent, VINO makes very fervid defense OF
Mrs. Landt. from which following
extracts are taken:
I'VE wish to state here that we have
had neither directly nor Indirectly any
COMMUNICATION with Mrs. Landt with
respect to the subject on which We write,
nor are we associated with her in any
way. But we do know of her long and
untiring service i the i'ter-st OF hui
msnity at the county hospital for many
years. and that through her efforts much
good indeed has been accomplished.
There is one glsrng fact that the su0er
visors and her assistants must admit, and
that is, Mrs. Landt made no complaints
during the administration of DR.. Brain
ard. Anyone who wants to know how
Mrs Landt is regarded by the patients
in the hospital has only to 60 out there
and mention her name to anyone OF
them. With respect to the cause OF the
present trouble, the following OF Mrs.
Landt by the deputy and the insulting
remarks of the latter to her. This calls
for something more than protest from
every right-tbinking taxpayer in the
county. That hireling had the audacity
to say to Mrs. Lsndt, when engaged in
reading the Scriptures to some unfortu-
nate, You had better take some of that
to yourself. you old hypocrite, and fol.
lowed her from ward to ward with re
marks of similar character.
1T is largely owing to her untiring
efforts in provoking Investigation on the
part of the supervisors that the condition
of the hospital is SO much i'm proved"

Residents of South Main street are CON-

THE BEAUTIFUL LOCATION.
No lovelier or more historic spot could have
been chosen by the Grand Army of the Repub-
lie than this for Soldiers Home IL il To-
Gated on the west bank of the Wabash with
1000 feet OF water front From the river the
blum rises abruptly about rs feet and is COW
cred with dense growth Of forest trees of
every variety, growing down to the waters
edge. From the top OF the bluff west n dis
lance OF 1000 feet the land is level rising then
with gentle slope 10 the upper plateau, more
than 200 feet above the river overlooking a
country grand and beautiful.
The spot is of great historical interest. 1t
was tho central spot for the Indians of the
West, and for years Tecumseh made IL his
home. The scene Of the famous battle of
Tippecanoe, where his power was finally
broken, is partly within the grounds. Sites of

Indian villages and of United States forts

note the large number of i $50 comrades re-

which may have led to the suspension of one
TO three comrades in several of the Posts it does
not seem possible that the number suspended
in some Posts, ranging between 25. and In one
very noticeable instance as high as SO comrades
could have been the result OF other than great
lack OF interest IN the welfare Of our Order 1t is
evident that such state of affairs could posi-
bly, exist il the officers and relief committees of
the Posts in question had given proper thought
and attention TO their duty, and i again urge
that no effort be spared in the work Of placing
