NEW WING FOR ASYLUM.
Recommendations TO be fiade TO ihe
Oregon LEGISLATURE.

Salem-Governor Chamberlain, Sec
retary Of State Dunbar and State Treas
urer Moore visited the state insane
asylum few days ago to investigate
the need OF an addition to accomodate
the rapidly increasing number of pa
tients. That more room will be need
ed is certain and the only question be-
fore the board was whether to recon-
mend to the legislature the construc-
tion of new closed cottage ut the
asylum farm or new wing at the main
building.
Recause OF the better facilities for
water supply and sewerage at the main
building IL was decided to recommend
the construction Of a new wing. This
addition will cost about $40,000 and
will provide room for 1870 more pa
tients
The population at the asylum is in
creasing at the rate of 80 to 90 a year,
or 100 TO 100 In biennial term. A
new wing will therefore provide only
for the increase In the next two years.
