Care Of County Sick and lnfirm.

A prolonged controversy regarding
the future care of the Chouteau county
sick and inirm was settled by the
county commissioners Wednesday,, at
a special meeting called for that pur.
pose. the board making an order des-
ignating the Fort Benton Sanitarium
as the place at which the patients are
to be treated, at q cost not to exceed
So per week for each person.
The natter came under considera.
ton at the regular December session
OF the board, when bids we're received
for the care of the county poor, sick
and inhrm, and other services. At
that meeting a bid of S5.25 per capita
per week for the care of the poor was
submitted by Ambrose Phelan, GUS
todian of the poor farm. For the care
OF the sick and infirm a bid of IS per
capita per week was submitted by the
Fort Benton Sanitarium, and a bid
OF $3.50 by St. Glare hospital, which
has held a contract with the county
AOI ecSeIoI years.
The board passed upon the bids by
awarding a contract to Ambrose Phe-
Ian for care of the county poor at IS. Is
per week, but when 1t proceeded to
consider bids for care of the sick and
infirm, a protest was entered by r. E.
O'Keefe, attorney for St. Glare hos.
pital, On the ground that only one
contract for the care of the county
poor, sick and inirm could be made.
The county attorney was not prepared
to deny or affirm the correctness of
this view of the matter, and expressed
a desire that he be given time to Sc
cure an opinion from the attorney
general. The matter was thereupon
laid over, to be further considered at
a special meeting to be held Deem
Der %.
AT this special meeting the county
attorney advised the board that the
award OF a contract to Ambrose Pha-
len must include the care of the sick
and inirm as we'll as care of the coun-
ty poor. Mr.. Phelan executed q contract
to that effect, signed by himself and
Thora Phelan, his wife, and as he was
not prepared to take charge of the
sick and in6rm, an agreement with
the Fort Benton Sanitarium to per-.
form that part of the service was
made.
AT the expiration of the St. Glare
hospital contract on December 81, an
order signed by Thcra Phalen for the
transfer Of the patients to the SAM
tarium was presented by an officer of
that institution, but delivery of the
patients vas refused, for the reason
that no instructions to that effect had
beer received from the county COM
missioners. Allegations of a wanto of
harmony between the county physi-
at this place and St.. Glare hos.
pital having been filed with the board,
a special meeting was called for We'd.
at which conflicting testimony
was heard, and at which arrangements
for care of the county sick and infrm
by the Fort Benton S%anitarium we're
made, at Is per week for each patient.
As the cost of such services to the
county the past few years has been o.
and % so per capita per week, the new
arrangement should effect a decrease |
10 county expenses in this connection.
