mittee met at IL a. m. Wednesday

BIGGER BANK FOR BLACKFOOT

There are three new men in town
figuring on banking business, and are
interviewing financiers large and
small to tell them about the bank
ing business as it is today, and the
things that can be done in the near
future. They are F. e. Cockrell, J..
H. Allen and M. ]. Earl, and came
here from San Francisco, where they
had made a close study of the ad-
yantages of the federal reserve busi-
ness as applied to national banks and
the savings departments in particu-
lar. They are connected with The
First National bank Of this city and
are presenting plan that Is rapidly
increasing the volume of its work
and business.

benefit of their teachings, and it will

them an attentive hearing II they

$4,000 worth of property in thi'
county. He has been confined severa
months, is simply old and childish
never misbehaved while he was il
the institution but persistently ap
pealed for his liberty, saying that il
lhe was too much trouble to be careG
for by his people that he wanted tC
go to the Soldiers Home and not be
kept among the insane. Immediately
upon being released he hired a rig
and drove out to Presto to see his
people, and telephone calls from Pres
to to the institution protested against
his being released. The board gives
assurance of its intention to deal
firmly with all cases having similar
records.
One matter of interest which we
feel was are at liberty to mention is
that since L. c. Killion took charge
of the farm and stock on the sixth
|of March, the milk and butter supply
doubled without any change in the
herd except the management of it,.
The institution has usually raised all
the fruit and vegetables needed for
consumption and some years sold
large quantities, but they are now
buying practically everything they
use except potatoes, and have been
for some months. The herd of stock
hogs is very much depleted, and the
institution is without meat excepting
what they buy.
We take this occasion to correct
some mis-information we gave out
when the new board took charge. We
stated that the board found the fall
plowing had been done, contrary to
reports, but after publishing the re-
port the writer went out to look over
the fields for himself and found
scarcely anything plowed but the
ground where potatoes had been
raised, and that was plowed in har-
vesting the crop. When we enquired
why we had been misinformed we
learned that the board had also been
they had not gone out
over the fields to test the informa-
tion. escp ,2

ASYLUM BOARD MET

The asylum board met Monday
afternoon and continued their work
Tuesday, finishing in the evening. On
Monday afternoon they took a
drive over the farm to view the prop
erty, and discussed many thing per-
tanning to the management of the
farm and garden.
Since the board took charge the
sixth of March, nineteen new cases
had been received and only three re-
leased. During the meeting, 15 were
recommended for release as soon as
arrangements could be made for it.
Seven of them were women, and as
they cannot get out and make their
living like men, arrangements are
made first for their care or protec-
tion.
The board found that many aged
persons have been committed to the
institution by relatives who simply
want to be relieved of their care, and
not because their are insane-unless
failing vigor and childishness are con-
sidered insanity, and committing
magistrates have so construed it in
many instances. The board decided
that this form of abuse of parents
and aged persons whose relatives are
able to care for them must cease SO
far as they are able to stop it.
One of the first men to be released
was J. H. Vaughn, of Blackfoot and
Presto, an aged veteran whose record
