State Auditor Geo. NJ. Clark has
very serious bill OF charges against the
management OF the West Tennessee
Hospital for the Insane at Bolivar. This
is not the first time that such an insti-
tuition has gone wrong. The criticism
develops the fact that the management
is not only guilty Of misconduct and in
competency, but that Governor Hoop
er's official family have been extremely
careless in allowing such institutions
iree rein for such length OF time with
out competent inspection. Mr.. Clark
has unearthed a condition that reflects
upon the Administration as well as
upon the management OF the asylum.
The people repose a great deal of conf
dence in their Governor and his officers,
resting in the assurance that he is keep
lug his weather eye out and taking care
of all these charges, and such an expo
sition does not comport very we'll with
the reports Of the Governors splendid
administration. True the management
should be dealt with if guilty as charged,
but what sort OF measure is due to an
administration which neglects its duty
in allowing these conditions to exist for
any length Of time.
