PROBATE JUDGES UNDER FIRE


In this connection the commissioner
made serious charges against Idaho
probate judges, who, he said, have
been guilty of neglect of duty III fail
ing to examine carefully into the
financial condition Of prospective in
mates AS a result many patients
have become burdens to the state
alone when, in compliance with the
law, their estates or their relatives are
required to pay for their keep at the
| hospital This condition has resulted
in depriving the hospital of funds and
making the conditions there, already
almost unbearable, radically worse.
A case was under advisement at
the commissioner S office in which the
wife of a wealthy farmer was
committed to the hospital The
probate judge who handled the case
had certified that there were no funds
for paying her keep. The husband
however while accompanying his wife
and her nurse to the Blackfoot institu-
ton. boastfully told the nurse Of pos
sessing many hundreds of acres Of
land (the initial payment ON which
N,s $4,000, as well as a large amount
OF livestock and other property Yet
hi. wife was certified as state charge
without funds Of her own TO pay for
her keep.
Section 1870 of the Idaho compiled
statutes is specific on this point. 1t
provides that 1.-the judge must inquire
into the ability of an insane person
ommitted by him to the asylum to
pay for his transportation to the asy-
lum, and the expense of the eXamlna-
ton. and bear the actual charges and
EXPENSES for the time that such person
NAV remain in the asylum. The sec
ton goes even further, authorizing the
courts. if necessary, to sell part or all
of the property of the patient to pay |
these expenses.
DIE AS IDIOTS LAUGH
Other startling revelations made by |
Commissioner White show that IN the
ASYLUM there is literally no place to
die. Crowded for room, the instltu-
tion consists merely of series OF
wards or sleeping rooms and certain
other rooms, familiarly called pad
ded cells.V in which the uncOntrollable
inmates are imprisoned. Beyond tins
there is a so-caled operating room,
which was formerly a bathroom and
is of the same general size as the ordi-
nary bathroom. ,,
During the meeting Of the ooaru
of directors, 3-day session, four
patients died in this place. 1t was
;mpossible to remove any of them
from their beds in the wards. The
senarate rooms were crowded with
other space was not
TO be had Therefore they passed

idiotic mirth, hysterical outbursts
from the innocent demented patients
about them, many of whom gathered
