THE INSANE ASYLUM INVESTIGATION,

The nvestigation into the management
of the insane ASYLUM at Waterbury
by the committee of senators and rep
resentatives Is attracting more atten-
ton at Montpelier than anything else.
The evidence thus far adduced has
tended to show that DR.. GIddings, the
superintendent. has a bad temper and
abuses patients. Among the witnesses
heard on Tuesday was DR.. w. \. Platt
of ShOreham, who has been one of
the three trustees of the asylum since
August, 1885. His testimony is thus
given in the Ru land Herald.
lie had generally attended the regular
meetings of the trustee 5 and had visited
the institution at other times. He gener-
ally went through some of the wards
and gave special attention to some
patients. lie thought the results of
treatment at the asylum showed well by
comparison, and that there was low
death rate. lie had never seen DR.. Gid
Gings show temper toward patients.
He had a personal interest in few
patients who had been confined there, in
cluding Grace Wright, who was his
wife's cousin. She talked cOntidentially
with him, but had not complained of
abuse. He never saw any marks of vio-
lcuCe uu ilcI DOuy' DIG might nave lldu
such injuries on the legs as had been
described without his knowing it. but he
did not think it likely. He once saw her
kick DR.. Giddings. He had procured
the employment of an attendant in the
asylum, who reported cOnfiden tally to
him about affairs there.
Cross-eXamined by Committeeman HUI
burd, he said he thought Grace Wright
in a lucid interval would remember what
happened during insane paroXysms. If
a man could get mad at a patient and re-
strain his action he should think him fit
to be superintendent; otherwise not.
He should think it an abuse to give
patients coffee made from grounds pre-
viously used for the help. lie thought
that good dairy butter was paid for by
the trustees, from IL to 10 cents pound,
and did not think that the trustees had
any right to deprive those sick people OF
good food. Emma IIeyt was three
weeks ago in a hall in the north wing,
clothed. 1t had been reported to him
that certain patients had to be kept with
out clothing or bedding. He never saw
a patient naked. but saw one with only a
waist on. This was Lucy Williams
! He did not consider himself the consultoI
in such matters. He thought that thai
duty was upon the supervisors. He
thought that with some patients the best
way was to keep them without clothing
He should say that contiuing naked
patients in rooms with the temperature
below 80 was inhuman.

Great Falls weekly tribune., 1896-02-21

The truly good st. Paul Globe devotes
a column to denouncing the great coal
combine, which it characterizes as "a
deliberate attempt to hold together an
Infamous monopoly in restraint of
trade;" and it further suggests that the
combine is as great violation Of law as
was the Debs strike. and the men en-
gagged in it are entitled to the same
share of public opprobrium and merit an
even severer punishment than the strik-
ers. This is all right as far as it goes,
but the Globe carefully avoids mention
of the most powerful INSCRIPTIONS and
law-defying of all the combines, the as
sociated banks of New York, body that
today controls the finances and dictates
the financial policy of the government,
and by its unlawful manipulation can
and does regulate the money markets of
the country to suit its purposes for good
or evil, and which is directly responsible
for the terrible panic of 1898. No men
ton is made of this monster combine be-
cause the Globe is in its employ and is
one of its staunchest apologists and de-
tenders. The coal combine is surely H.
legal and should be prosecuted and dis
rupted. 1t has no right to exist, but it's
power for evil pales into insignificance
beside that of the associated banks. If
there were spark of honesty, loyalty or
regard for the rights and interests of the
people, the Globe and all of its TX would
turn their batteries against Wall street
and aid in delivering the country from
its worst thralldom by the enactment of
the free coinage law. Until that is ac-
complished there can be no relief Or
prosperity. Let the Globe be consistent
or hold it's peace regarding combines.

The democratic majority iu the Ken
tucky Legislature very foolishly asked
Secretary Carlisle to use his influence to
have the five goldbug democrats in that
body who have thus far refused to do
so. vote for MIR. Blackburn for senator.
To this the secretary replies that he will
cooperate sin any effort to unite all in
supporting the democratic organization
in Kentucky and maintaining sound
democratic principles and policies as
declared by the constituted authorities
of the party" If by CONSTITUTED au.
thorities" by Carlisle means Cleveland
and himself, there is no hope for Mr..
Blackburn; if he is honest in bis state
ment, the gentleman should receive his
support, He must know that Mr.. Black
burn is the caucus nominee and is re-
ceiving GO out of 60 democratic votes, and
under every rule that governs the party he
is entitled to election. If Carlisle bases bis
opposition to Black burn upon the inan-
cial views of the latter. he is again off, as
far as constituted authorities" are con
cerned, for the national democratic con
vention. the highest authority, in its
platform Of 1892 declared 1--WE hold to
the use of both gold and silver as the
standard money of the country, and te
the coinage of both gold and silver with
out discrimination against either meta
or charge for mintage."
The fact is that Mr.. Carlisle is begging
the question. He has forgotten that ht
ever was democrat and is aiding tt
disrupt the party in Kentucky and de
feat it's nominee for the senate simply
because he has been ordered to do so b,
Cleveland and Wall street.
