CARING FOR THE INSANE.

The Richmond Dispatch calls attention
10 what it calls a decided reform in tn,
y stem of caring for the insane, which il
to be introduced in Pennsylvania. /
says:
up to sixteen years ago the condi-
tions in Wisconsin were similar to
those that obtain in Pennsylvania at
present. The State insane asylt1ms
were crowded with patients of all
classes, acute and chronic, supported
at heavy expense; and there were
many insane in the jails and aims
houses. In 1881 the Legislature
adopted a new policy, under which
the counties have been encouraged to
establish asylums of their own, where
the chronic insane, who are able to
work, and are not violent, are cared
for. According to the report referred
to, this policy has been very success
full. The State asylums have been re-
lieved of inmates requiring compara-
lively little medical attention, thus
insuring better care for those most
needing it; while the county establish
ments have furnished humane treat
ment in place of the hardships of the
jails and almshouses.
"These county establishments are
upon what are known as the family
PLAN; the men carrying on the farms,
which are a necessary feature, and
doing practically all the heavy work
required, while the women make and
mend clothing, wash, and perform the
domestic duties in general. A very
great amount Of freedom, under this
system, can, it is said, be permitted,
and it has the inestimable advantage
of retaining the afflicted near their
relatives, who are, of course, chiefly
of a class not able to spend their time
and money in long journeys. In fact,
the number of visitors is very large
at these county asylums, which is of
itself a stimulus to good management
The entire expense for each inmate,
exclusive of interest on the cost of
buildings and farms, is only $1.65 per
week; and the saving effected since
the reform was instituted woul, it
seems, amount to more than the capi-
tai expended for land and construc-
ton"

THn PRIVATE STOCKHOLDERS
MUST BE PROTECTED.

1t was natural to expect the Southern
Railway, which has profit of $l2o,ooo
a YEAR at stake for ninety-nine years, to
bring able and high priced lawyers to
Raleigh to enable them to transfer this
big sum annually from the pockets OF the
people to their own; but 1T is fndefensible
for the officers of the North Carolina
Railroad Company, who ought to be rep
resentmg the interests Of the stockhold-
ers. to permit themselves to be used by
the Southern as cats paws ito pull the.
chestnuts out of the fire for them.
They might have defended themselves,
but with little success, before the offer
of am increase of $4,000 per annum;
but now that to stand by the Southern
is to give the Southern $4,000 annually
for ninety-nine years that ought to go to
the people and to the stockholders, Is to
make it apparent that they put the i'm
terests of that outside corporation above
the interests of the people of North Caro-
line.
In view of the persistent fight that is
being made by the North Carolina Rail-
road officials to give the Southern $780,
900 annually by taking 100000 every
year for ninety4nine years out OF the
State Treasury and $4,000 from private
stockholders they have taken a posi-
ton that would justify the State In doing
what is for dts own interests, even if to
promote its own interest it should have
to sacrifice the interest of THE private
stockholders. We say that this would
be justifable, but in spite of the jusih-
cation their conduct affords, this paper
shall now, as it has always done, demand
that in THE leasing or sale of this proper
ty, every protection and advantage shall
be given to the private stockholders that
the State secures for itself.
