hesitation. because ! do not wish to
interfere with settled practices or
with reasonable expectations of
those who usually go to enjoy the

incidental to it. and because these

whether he accepts It in general with
the vast majority or opposes II with
the slight minority.
"All the men and women who are

OF remark by Superintendent w. D..
McNary. He did not mean by this
that there are insane men at large,
but that there are men and women
so physically constructed that the
least excitement might be the cause
of a transformation which would
class them with the insane. They are
fortunate enough, however, to have
thus far escaped the particular cause.

Excellent Accommodations.
No better accommodations for the
insane can be found in any state than
what are to be seen in the Eastern
oregon hospital. When the many i'm
provements are made to the grounds
tnat are now contemplated and some
Of which are already under way, the
institution will be a model of its kind
All these beautiful surroundings have
their influence upon those within the
building. Instead of the old-time
dungeon. the patient is allowed the
sunshine and the pure air. the daily
bath and the sanitary sleeping room.
The institution Is conducted as a huge
business institution is conducted. II
might be called an institution for the
conservation of life--for many Of
these patients who apparently enter
ed in a hopeless state. have gone forth
completely restored to health.
When one has an opportunity of
seeing at first hand the way the bust
ness of the institution here is conduct
ed, he marvel9 at the system which

losses; II may be grief over the death
OF loved one; It may be religious de-
votion. These things In themselves
said the doctor, are not the ..founda-
tional causes of insanity, but they are
as the match to the powder. The
fundamental causes are physical. A
nervous. neurotic person, melancholy
perhaps, eccentric in his ways, might
be the most susceptible candidate for
complete arrangement OF course
there are exceptions as In all things
else, but generally this is the case. In
all instances, however, the sufferer
from these ailments is not a we'll man
either physically or mentally. And
IL he should descend to the level OF
the insane he would not be any more

cost of the Salem hospital and the
Eastern Oregon hospital, II is safe to
say. from at least one months fig
ures which DIR. McNary happens TO
have knowledge, that this institution
makes a flattering comparison.
The legislature appropriated the
maintenance fund for the local hos

opened at that time, the patients
were kept at Salem until the Goth. The
local hospital, however, turned over
to the Salem institution a per capita
cost for the 25 days on the basis of

latter sum was what the Salem
hospital was paying for the month of
January. a glance at the figures

to show that the Eastern Oregon hos

Pendleton Benefits.
One may be surprised to know that
figuring from the present basis OF
expenditure, the hospital will place
in circulation in PendIeton in the
neighborhood OF $4,000 this year.
This is indeed goodly sum for the
local merchant. DR.. McNary figures
this money will be spent either di-
rectly or indirectly. during the present
year For instance, the employees will
spend considerable with the business
men Of Pendleton. The hospital has
need Of outside labor from time to
time and this year particularly when
the grounds are being improved and
parked, and this will create a large
payroll. As all butter and eggs and
the like. which are needed from time
to time are purchased in this city, this
will increase the revenue Of the mer-
chants and the farmers. and all told
the institution means considerable to
Pendleton from business standpoint
The last legislature appropriated
siS7,20O for maintenance of the hos
pital. At the present time. the insti-
tuition is well within this amount.
