1T is the constant aim of the State
Hospital authorities in North Carolina
to make these institutions places for the
treatment of disease, to elevate them in
every possible way. to cure patients if
possible, if not to make them Ravens of
rest to the insane where every reason
able comfort can be given them.
|. ''Of all helpless creatures on earth,
none can be more so than the insane.
They are compelled to take such as is
given them. to submit to heat, cold and
hunger. The only friends they have
are those in charge of them. They can
pour their pitiable tales of woe in no 9th
err ears. and there is no suffering greater
than the mental agony of these poor
people"
There has been much opposition to the
provision permitting the MorgGnton
Hospital to treat inebriates when there
are insane languishing in jails. | asked
DIR. Murphy what he thought about that
objection. He said:
Morganton rooms were provided for
pay patients and they are so constructed
they cannot be used for any other pur-
pose There was no demand for these
rooms by the insane and the rooms were
idle. The Legislature of 1891 permitted
the Hospital authorities to use these
quarters for inebriates, but made no
provision for their care, SO that it was
necessary 10 charge for their treatment.
The board of directors thought they
might 90 good to these people and have
taken few there all told in the eight
wears not over 10 This department has
not been encouraged. but probably lit
tie good has been done and it will do
more if the law is allowed to stand.
There is growing disposition to de-
clare persons suffering with the delirium
Of alcoholism in these hospitals as in
sane: besides being very Objectionable
to the insane they are not proper sub
iects and should not occupy the quarters
intended for the insane, and one way to
keep them out is to place them in the
department for inebriates and make
them pay for their treatment"
Section 80 Of the pending bill con-
tains new provision which may be
open to objection. 1t reads:
ANY person believing himself to be
Of unsound mind. or threatened with in
sanity, may voluntarily commit himself
to the proner Hospital. The application
for commitment shall be in the same
form as that for the voluntary commit
rent of inebriates. and it shall ike
wise accompanied by the certificate of
Il licensed physician, which certificate
shall state that in the opinion of the
physician, the applicant is fit subject
for admission into hosnital, and that
he recommends his admission.
''The certificate to the Clerk of the
Superior Court need not accompany this
application"
DR.. Murphy says that this provision
would not be abused. and that under
it strong man, temporarily unstrung,
might be saved to the State and fam
ily if he were permitted to seek the
treatment without the publicity attend
