Although many grand juries had
scored the mismanagement of affairs
at the County Hospital for the Insane
and the construction of the big build
ings at Overlook 1t was left to the
December grand jury of last year to
take action in ordering Indictments.
That jury on April 2 last found true
contractor; Terence Smith. chief of the
men appointed by the county to inspect
the work of erecting the buildings,
Henry Moran, a general inspector, and
Herbert F. j. Bartlett, a clerk. There
was found a shortage in the copper
used for flashing on the buildings, ard
the indicted men were held responsible
for this.
No indictments were found against
any of the freehdlders, but they were
taken sharply to task in the prese nr-
ment accompanying the indictments for
allowing politics to control them in
their Work. On this subject 1t was
said:
MANY Of the members of these
boards are met of unquestioned III
tegrity and ability in private life and
in the conduct of personal business af-
fairs, but when they accept political
office they become often regretfully part
of a system which, in its demands.
has small regard for individual judy
ment and in its requirements but Sec
ondary oncer for the public welfare.
Party Expediency the Test.
Party loyalty and political ex-
pediency overbalance consideration Of
personal merit and fitness. Public
positions are expected and demanded
for party workers needing a Job. In
competency and sineffleiency are accept
ed in their official life that would not
be tolerated for an instant in private
or corporation business management"
The p~resent,nent lacked details, but
included much general condemnation
such as this:
THE unsavory reports attending the
construction of the asylum and it's en-
eral management, have, with reason.
long been q stencil in the nostrils of the
people of Essex. The instances of ne
glect and delay. of poor Judgment, of
apparent n~onfeasance or malfeasance.
have been many and fragrant, some of
which this jury Is Ndebarred in taking
official cognizance of because of the
statute of limitations. and also be-
cause of the evident difficulty of inves-
tigating in detail the construction of
buildings already completed and ac-
cepted."
This was said of the management of
the asylum:
Politics in the Asylum.
1.-THE excuse offered by the superin-
tendent and supervisor that politics in

is, in our judgment, no excuse for on
