The indictment of the county poor farm by the four ladies representing the relief society before the county court last week was not so severe as "| the headlines in the Record would indicate. These ladies, Mesdames |J. Everingham, T. J. Day, H. E Percival and Max Weiner, among the firet ladies of our city, visited the poor farm for the purpese of in- vestigating its management and dis covering its shortcomings. They reported to the court that the part of the building occupied by the pa- tients needed somerepair. That the sanitary condition could be improved | and that an insane patient, who was kept in irons, be sent to the asylum. We venture the assertion that not another poor farm withia the con fines of the state could have so weil withstood the scrutiny of these four sympathetic ladies. It should be remembered that a poor farms not meant for a place of luxury and pleasure. No one goes to such a place except in extreme destitution Now if they are furnished substan- tial victuals and «a comfortable | place to sleep, with warm clothing, it is all that humanity demands. It is to the credit of the couaty court and to the superintendent that no scandal or charges of mismanage ment waa even binted at, as was th ease under a former court of differ- ent political complexion It is rarely that an institution of this kind is in vestigated without some of the in- mates, often vicious, making com- plaints of ill treatment, lack of suitable food, No such com- plaints appear in the report of these excellent ladies. The county needs other improvements worse than a After they are ete. new poor house. |secured then these other improve. ments will comein good time. There are now only five inmates in the Bates county poor farm. Sensational reports were sent out from Topeka to the effect that Gov. Stanley was very mad over the lynch- ing of the negro rapist, Embree, and had threatened to break off diplo matic relations between the two states of Kansas and Missouri These reports had it that Governor Stanley had written Gov. Stephens |a scorching letter to that effec'. This lester when received by Governor Stephens was very pacifie. It con tained no such threats, as charged, but on the contrary said: “I am not censuring you, asI think you did quite all that could have been done when you wrote Sheriff Gibson the characte~ of letter you did and urged him to protect Embree and keep his promise.” Some newepa pers are so vindicative against Gov. | Stephens that they embrace every opportunity and do not hesitate to pervert facts to annoy him and place him in a false light before the peo- ple. Very often, as in this ease, these reports are sent outas matters of news and find their way into the columns of papers very friendly to} Governor.
