DOCTORS DISAGREE
AS TO A LUNATIC

Catherine Heltzen, 81 years old, OF 40,

at a special session Of the district court
on a charge OF insanity. The testimony
OF Drs Griffin and Hunt differed so mate
rally that the case was continued TO this
morning.
In the meantime, DR. Shatuck was
called in and after examining the woman
pronounced her suffering from senie de-
mentia.
This morning DIR. Hunt testified that he
did not believe the woman insane in the
generally accepted sense; but ne agreed
with Or. Shattuck as 10 her affliction and
thought that she needed constant care,
though not necessarily restraint.
Or Griffin testified that the woman was
dangerous to herself and TO those about
her. and believed she would be placed
where she could do no harm.
Judge Leo finally committed her with
the understanding that her son would pay
for her support at the state hospital.

as TO the quality OF our present ani
OF our proposed enactments.
SLOWLY but surely the people have mar
rowed the opportunities for selfish ag-
gression and the demand for this hour,
and OF all hours, is not allegiance TO
phrases. but sympathy with every aspira-
tion for the betterment of conditions and
a sincere and patient effort 10 understand
every need and 10 ascertain In the llgnt
OF experience the means best adapted 10
meet IT, II Is the capacity for such close
examination without heat or disquallfy-
ing prejudice which distinguishes the con-
structlve effort from vain endeavors to
chanrts human nature by changing the
forms OF government.
ut must freely be recognized that many
OF tho evils OF which we complain have
their source in the law itself. in privileges
carelessly granted, In opportunities for
private aggrandiZement at the expense OF
the people reckessly created, in failure
TO safeguard our public interests by pro-
viding Just regulation OF those enter
prises which depend upon the use OF pub
lie franchises.
Wherever the law gives unjust ad-
vantage. wherever IL fails by suitable
prohibition or regulation to protect the In
terests or the people, wherever the power
derived from the state is turned against
the state. there Is not only room but ur-
gent necessity for the assertion of the
authority OF the state 10 enforce the
common right.
I'VE are a government OF laws and not
OF men We subordinate individuals ca
price 10 defined duty. The essentials of
our liabilities are expressed in constitution
al enactments removed from the risk of
temporary agitation But the security of
our government despite it's constitutional
guarantees is found in the intelligence
and public-spirit OF It's citizens, and In it's
ability to call 10 the work OF admins
tration men OF single-minded devotion to
the public interests, who make unselhsh
service TO the state a point of knightly
honor.
