"fORPOLITICALR REASONS"
WORDS THAT APPEARED IN SOUTH
ERN HOSPITAL BOARD RECORD.
Members of the Board Intimate They
Were Interpolated by DR.. Stoker,
Who Was Removed.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
EVANSVILLE, Ind, June 3.-A new
phase of the imbroglio at the Southern
Hospital for Insane has developed. 1t seems
that during the visit of the State Charities
Board here, following the removal of DR..
Stoker, the board first visited the hospital
and afterward returned to the city for a
conference with the board of trustees of
the institution. The Charities Board. dur
ing it's visit to the hospital, was shown the
minutes of the special meeting regarding
the removal of DR.. Stoker. These minutes
show that the words for political reasons"
were used as the cause for the removal Of
DR.. Stoker. With the knowledge of this
statement on the minutes the Charities
Board at its meeting with the trustees later
said no word regarding the unusual record.
The board, however, returned to Indian
apolis and reported the matter to Governor
Durbn. On his arrival here last night
Governor Durbin met the hospital board at
the st. George Hotel and confronted them
with the statement of the Charities Board
regarding the cause of the removal of DR..
Stoker.
In a statement the members of the board
declared to the Journal correspondent that
there was no truth in the statement that
DR.. Stoker was removed for political cause;
that DR.. Stoker personally prepared the
minutes and read them to the board; that
the words "for political reasons were not
read by DR.. Stoker, and that the board was
in complete ignorance of their presence on
the minutes; that they signed the minutes
without reading them, and that they either
appeared on the minutes at that time or
were afterwards interpoated. The board
will make afhdavits to this fact, and Gov
ernor Durbin will return to Indianapolis,
not only with these affidavits, but with a
copy of the corrected minutes of that meet
ing.
The Board of State Charities has been
critical of the Southern Hospital for the
Insane for more than a year. The belief
is that they had marked DR.. Stoker to go.
1t is asserted that the board had selected
the son-in-law of Alexander johnson, Of
Fort Wayne, superintendent of the Insti-
tute for Predetermined Youths, for the
place The only politics now visible in the
hospital situation here is that injected by
the State Charities Board.

sounded the keynote of the struggle, which
after convulsing the Nation, made it in
fact what Ii had been only in name, at
once united and free. Ii Is emintently fit

the great debate that here took place,
should be dedicated by the men whose
deeds made good the words of Abraham
Lincoln and the soldiers of the civil war.

without the deeds the words would have

vision. could pierce the clouds that OBJ
scured the sight of the keenest of his fell

In all history 1 do not believe that there is
to be found an orator whose speeches will
last as enduringly as certain of the
speeches of Lincoln. And in all history,
with the sole exception of the man who

votion to the veal of his people. We cam
not too highly honor him. And the high

see that our homage is not only homage
of words; that to loyalty of words we join
loyalty of the heart and that we pay honor
TO the memory of Abraham Lincoln by so
conducting ourselves. by so carrying our
