relative to the claim of Dr. Alden for pay
as superintendent OF the Norfolk asylum
subsequent to the appointment of Dr.
Young az his successor. No final action
was taken by the board however. It be-
ing thought best to obtain a written
waiver from DR.. Young before allowing
the salary 70 DR.. Alden. The opinion
holds that DR.. Young having performed
no services nor presented a claim for
pay. Or. Alden is entitled to the money. 2
The matter of the contract for food
elevators at the Hastings asylum was
also to be considered, it being understood
that Architect George Berlinghof, who
was appointed to investigate was, ready
TO report. Mr.. Berlinghof was unable to
be present, however, the matter went
over.

william j. Bryan or his political man
ayers have adopted an adroit and clever
method by which the possibility of the
Nebraska gentleman entereding New York
state to take to the hastings In support

nation leaking from exclusive circles In
the democratic camp, has been anxious
for some time TO induce Bryan to go to
the Empire state and turn loose his oratory
in the editors behalf. No formal re-
quest from the editor's campaign man

sons. Hearst has ambitions higher than
the New York governorship and Bryan
II on the same track the editor evidently
has not cared to invite refusal
Bryans part by asking the latter to enter
New York. The multi-millionaire pub
Usher has felt. however,. that Bryan, in
asmuch as he has marked out a prolonged
tour of the central states should step
over into New York 10 lend his aid to the
democratic ticket.
But Bryan is not going to New York.

gone ahead persistently for the past two
weeks booirins him. for speeches in the
