money to give 1t a navy worthy of its
greatness. Those in our midst and I'M

Salem County's Insane.

DR.. George B. Wight, State Commits
sioner OF Charities, who investigated the
insane patients at the Salem county aims
house on Sept 18th, made an official re-
port to Governor Stokes in which he
commended Steward Turner and wife
for doing the best they could with the
facilities provided by the county. At the
close of his report he said:
81 am satisfied that no just complaint
can be made for any want of cleanliness
of cells, and corridors, nor of the food
prepared, o Of any want of personal
attention to the inmates. Mr.. William
Turner, the superintendent, and his
wife, are fully employing all the facilit-
les the county provides, and are doing
all in their power, to properly care for
the unfortunate persons committed to
them.
But [ think Salem county is justly cen
surable for SO long permitting any OF
its insane to be kept under outward con
ditions so revolving with no serious at
tempt at betterment. Other counties
which have erected weIl-appoined County
Hospitals find it is a great economy to
care for their insane themselves, receiv-
ing from the State two dollars per week,
instead of paying the State four dollars
per week for each patient. Out of their
savings they pay the interest on their on
struction bonds, and create a constantly
increasing sinking fund-to ultimately
retire them. Salem county, besides the
cost OF maintenance of sixteen patients
in the Almslouse, pays the State $l400
per year for those kept in State Hospital,
I respectfully recommend that the
State appropriation OF two dollars per
week for the maintenance of each insane
person be withheld from Salem county
until it provides accommodations which
come within the intent OF the law
