In a short time the son began sufferir

and her son were suffering with diph

with anti-toxine. but denied that they
had diphtheria and refused to quaran

which epidemic is now under control
and a certain faction at Whitewater
charged that these people caught the

tients, rather than keep them in the
county iails where they are constantly
thrown in association with criminals
and crooks of all classes. 1t is in this
way that much of tho cost of main
tanning the hospital could be met.
On this ground, the Rev. Nelson
bases his. fight for such an institution
He says that forced constant associa-
ton with the criminal class in the
county jails, is demoralizing and al
most criminal The sane prisoners as
a general rule make a practice of
worrying the insane, and in this way
probably aggravate their mental de-
formities. 1t is not through malicious
ness that this is done, but because as
general rule prisoners in the jails
have nothing else to do to while away
the time.
Insane prisoners cannot under any
circumstances receive proper atten-
ton in county jails. They need at
tention. more than it is in the power
Of any sheriff or custodian of the jails
to give. This is because of ineXper-
ience in handling insane patients, un-
familiarity with their needs and lack
of equipment.
The ministers OF the city are much
in favor of the Rev. Nelson's plans
therefore at the next meeting of the
Ministerial Association IA committee
probably will be appointed to copfer
with the county board of charities anF
the county commissioners. to ascer
tain whether or not the plan can bf
carried out.

"All property shall be assessed at
its true value in money" State law.
Last week the assessors met in the sew
eral counties. In Russell they. decid-
ed to divide the true value of personal
property by three; in Ellis county,
four was taken as the divisor. but
Cove county did still betterin shifting
the burden of state taxes off its people
and onto the other 104, counties, by
dividing the actual value by five.
Isn't it about time to have state tax
commissioner with extensive powers
for equalizing taxation? 1t is doubt
full if the county assessor feature is
more or less then saddling another
