HOSPITAL HOME.
\ Hospital Home Has been Started
Here by DIR. Carney.

There's something IN name. Many
people dislike the very name"hospit-
al" yet they are ready 10 acknowledge
that in the event Of sickness they have
mo adequate means of care in their
own home.
At 52S College street, inths city, a
hospital home has been established.
There are all the requirements of an
up-to-date hospital with the atmos-
phere of home life. Since the opening
or Saturday. September lst, there
have been nine patients, eight Of
which have been surgical cases. So
far every patient has gone away per-
manently bettered. The hospital Is
conducted by DR. Carney with the
assistance of one OF the most skillful
nurses to be found in the state This
place is the beginning Of something
larger along the same lines The rep
utation Of Dr. Carney, as surgeon,
is daily becoming more widely known.
With ample training and considerable
hospital experience in large cities, he
is well prepared to deal with cases
that BATTLE the ordinary practitioner.
The cases already treated appear TO
have covered a wider range than the
number would indicate, some Of them
being seriously complicated.
Alma is fortunate in having such 4
place and such skill at the disposal Of
its citizens. This community is no
longer the same that il was year or
two ago. There is need arising every
day for prompt and thorough handling
OF troubles that are a matter,of life
and death, and here in this hospital
home we find just what so many peo-
pie crave.
This article IS written entirely un-
known tc, and without any talk on the
subject with, DIR. Carney. The desire
of the writer is simply to make
known to outsiders what may at some
time be great benefit to them.

Basing his action on an opinion of
the altorney-general that the act abol.
ishing district deputy superintend.
ent's of public instruction is unconsti.
lutional. Gov. Boyle late Monday We.
tocd the bill
The encouragement held that the
section giving county commissioners
authority to appoint county superin.
tendents would conflict with the con.
sututional provision which says that
all county officials shall be elected.
The bill abolishing deputy superin.
tendants was vigorously opposed dur.
ing the closing hours of the session.
the night being carried into the debate
over the general appropriation bill
when after considerable talk the an.
propriations for the deputies were cut
out Of that measure.
The bill got through the assembly by
close vote and had only five oDpo.
nents In the senate. The vote on cut.
ung from the general appropriation
oI'i the appropriations for the deputy
superintendcnts was somewhat closer
IN the senate, carrying by majority
Of one.
Members of the Lyon county assem-.
biy delegation. who introduced the or.
lsinal bill abolishing the deputies,
stated after the session had closed
mat In case the bill should he vetoed
and an attempt was made to pay the
salaries of the deputies out of the
general fund the matter would be
taken into the courts.
