I 1 male up my mind after elected that I 1 would do all I 1 could to mike mke the Ter territory Terri Titor tor al asylum what it should bo be we could stand a higher tax to not only aident complete the tile asylum ive e may as well ell go to work and finish the ceiner 1 and nd the other wing icae if we borrow money we could not mke m ike a better investment I 1 hope that every friend of the insane will do what he can to cor complete the asylum time for departure had arrived As all 11 arose to leave abe hatch exclaimed gentlemen we ought to thank the city and suiting the tile action fiction to his words lie turned to mayor duzenberry and said we on one and find all desire to to express the sincere gratitude of our hearte tit striking his chest for the manner in which you have treated us and well remember you in the tile a appropriation ion amid laughter the tile party surged forth and strung out on their way to the depot come some of them calling at tire residence of judge dusenberry who was was sick on the tire return trip the members expressed themselves on the tile question of the condition of the tile asylum asylum and some of their views are given fai en below A L williams it is well kept but very much crowded it should receive receive immediate assistance C F olsen well avell one can hardly judge of the true state of affairs by being burned flurried through the building on a visit of this nature both male and female wards are crowded that ii iq the worst feature of the condition of the ashlum IV WT T stewart wart my general idea is that the original plan was drawn with ith a view to the greatest amount 0 of f expenditure and with the least mo mont t of accommodation or capac capacity in the tire question of to the citi vs usefulness to the county I 1 think ornamentation has it abone eare are my candid views how eve I 1 think something is ab absolutely necessary to relieve the present crowded condition william K feid the asylum is fear ully crowded I 1 could not say anything ai asto to farther appropriation knowing nettling of the state of the treasury nor anything as to the ex a feces ary to place the asylum on a proper fooling there is one ahn thing I 1 cant see and that is bow how an architect will prepare a plan with BO so much waste in it as was shown in that loft I 1 think every inch of space a should hould ba utilized it A sane man was as put in there as a it ell t under present conditions condition I 1 X dont on t think it would belong be long beaire before he lie became insane james A INI melville elville the nea neatly aly kept but the tile conditions as far an as room is concerned a ae 0 deplorable I 1 think there of should 10 u 11 be some apar appropriation opria tion arid more too room in granted grante d the r I 1 e territory to is well able to do it with its increasing revenue and wealth thomas IV itus ell well its good as far as it goes there is is no C classification possible howe vr r and the thing in these institutions is lacking that is plenty of room it does not commire with asyl asylums urus that I 1 have visited in my time J it porter poker we ought to aid the asylum the building should have been before others were started we ought to complete the building if ps ible but I 1 dont believe in patching it the tito only trouble is the extent of our revenues if we e cannot complete it I 1 dont think we ought to begin ij 4 unless we finish it there will doubt doubtless leas be an attempt to bring in other property properly tor for taxation at this session hat will increase the tile revenue and will doubtless enable us to do something 0 N lund they need help there is no doubt of that but bat it is going to cost an immense amount of in money oney to finish it I 1 scarcely think they will entertain the idea at this e sion alon they may appropriate sufficient 0 t erect the center building that would give them ample room for a seal reason lycurgus johnon they need our aid they are huddled together w without regard to class or debrea of insanity 11 J at ferrin tint thit thy are crowded and should have assistance must be admitted but bit the c et st is enormous enor moui I 1 was told th ill it it would cost ilC to erect the center and the other wing and arid then the buil dinc din would not be completed ac accy coding dina to the original plan with running expenses of the institution for two years and the tile increase of patients the bum am tobo to be appropriated rioted ignot is not emall if considering si the territorial revenue |
