One of those two day ten dollar trips

Throughout the world the masses

The republican party has dishonored
itself by it's subservience to the trusts,

provoked the resentment of a long
suffering people. Mr.. Roosevelt is
heart and soul in sympathy with the
republican rebellion. If the Augean

Committee Meets at the Poor

Private Quiz.
COMPLETE INVESTIGATION

BE NO PUBLICITY GIVEN UNTIL
REPORT.
(Staff Correspondent.)

Centerville. Ind. Feb. 1.-THE exam
ination and investigation of the alleg-
ed poor management of the Wayne
County Poor Farm will not be made
public until the committee appointed
by the three newspapers and commits
sioners makes its report. This action
was decided upon by the committee
which met at the county infirmary this
afternoon. The committee consists of
George H. Eggemeyer, John l.. Rupe,
and Wilfred Jessup. The Item was
represented by William Dudley Foulke,
Henry L. Johnson and W. c. Corral.
The charges, from which the probe re-
suited, were made by that paper
When the committee met this after
noon. the matter of policy for publ
vestigation was considered and the
committee decided that the best plan
to follow would be to have all the hear
ings and Investigations private. AT
the close Of the investigation. however,
all the transactions will be made pub
lie. Arthur A. Curme, the court re-
porter. was taken to the infirmary to
take the testimony.
This action was taken because the
committee believed it would be the best
way to treat the matter, since the
comittee is not serving for political
purposes, but simply to determine
whether or not the charges made by
the Item are true
The committee will probably re-
port the middle of next week II is
estimated that it will take four or
five days to complete the investiga-
ton.

was considering some new plan for
routing the poolroom. and that he
would abandon the suits which had
been filed in the Clark county court.
This report. however. was not verified
1t seems that the pool room men are
getting ready 10 contest the suit in
the Clark county court and that they
will base their contest on the definition
OF nuisance. In the complaint filed
by the state against the Cumberland
Telephone and Telegraph Co. and 9TH
ers. it was affirmed that the pool room
was nuisance and an injunction and
receiver was asked for.
The attorneys for the pool room men
it is said will contend that the pool
room IS not a nuisance as they will
hold that il does not come within the
definition given in the statutes which
is TO the effect that nuisance is
whatever is injurious TO the health, in
decent or offensive TO the senses or
an obstruction to the free use of prop
erty SO as essentially to interfere with
the comfortable enjoyment of life or
property.
The state may be able to show that
the pool room is such as to interfere
with the comfortable enjoyment of life
or property as there has been loud
protest from those who live near the
place as they declare that it brings
great crowds of law violators into the
state from Kentucky. The governor
it is said, will fight the case to finish
and will have personal representa-
tive on the ground most of dle time.
The pool room is situated near Jeffer-
Sonville.
Care Of the Insane.
1t is probable that as the result of
the activity of the governor several
changes will be brought about in the
methods of caring for the insane in
Indiana. The governor is deeply in
terested in all charity questions and
he is greatly discouraged by the con-
gested conditions of the insane hospit
ais and jais of the state. There are
now 1,4,6 insane patients in jails and
hospitals of the state and when the
new southeastern hospital at Madison
is completed the state will have room
for only J,31:; which will leave great
number who will have no protection
save that afforded by poor farms and
jails. The governor has been told
also that there are inmates of the
boys school and the girls school.
which are insane and should be cared
for. The governor believes that 1t
would be a good plan to care for the
le-boded and mildly insane on farms
and he is going to give this plan some
careful study and attention. In line
with his views the prison committee
of the board of state charities will
make to visits in the state of Wiscon-
sin to study the methods of caring for
the insane there.
