, .. REPORT.

STATE OF NEVADA, "} CABSON CITY, January 5, 1891. .

To.the Honorahle the LegislaJ,UJ'e of the S t<deof Nevada: GE...""rLE~IEN-In compliance with law, the C<>nunissioners for the"

Care of the Indigent Insane of this State, have the honor to submit the following report coverning theyeara 1889 and 1890: .

The report of· Dr. Bishop to the Board, which foliows, is so full and complete as to leave but little to add that the Legislature may be fully inf01:med of the management and condition of the Asylum, and we will only recommend that an appropriation of $85,000 be made for the maintenance of the institution for the years 1891 and 1892. A less amount ·will be insufficient for its increasing wants, by reason of an increasing number of patients.

In submitting this report, however, we would be recreant to our sense of justice did we tail to commend Dr. Bishop for his faithful, careful, economical and kind administration of the affairs of the institution for the past two years. .

The statement immediately following is made by J. F. Hallock, wh"o has been a member of the Board for the last twelve years, and

"" we respectfully ru;k that it be carefully read. Respectfully,

]'RANK BELL, J. F. HALLOCK, G. W. RICHARD,

STATEMENT.

STATE OF NEVADA, } C..illSO!i (JITY, January 5, 1891.

To the Honmahle the Legislatw'c of the State oj Nevada:

GE...'I,"LElIE...~--Since the last session of your Honorable Body, deatlt has found and shattered a shining mark, in the person of our res­pected and ,esteemed Governor-C. C, HtfJvenson-who wasaniember of the Board of Commissioners for the Care of the Indigent Insane; and sickness has driven from our mid:,.t our devotB<l Uncle George­Tufty-another member, leaving only myself to speak for the old Board; and now, as I am also about to retire from the Board" I feel it incumbent upon me, Imd that it is due the State, as well as the living and dead members who cannot speak, to give the true history of the Board's efforts to 'secure ft. supply of water for the Insane Asylum, and which have become famous through a suit at law entitled "Reno Smelting, Milling and Reduction Works vs. C. C. Stevenson, et a1."

Seeing the urgent need of some less expensive and more certain and abundant supply of water than was being furnished the Asylum by the pump and well, under the immediate lee of the Asylum buildings, and which would quickly be rendered useless in case of fh'e, and feeling it to be their bounden duty to obtain such a supply, if it could be done under the authority with which they were invested, the Com­missioners, headed by their able chief, of large, practical experience in such mattel's--Governor Stevenson-determined to secure a water power from the supembundance of water in the Truckee, river, to run pumping machinery to be located at the river, to the windward of the Asylum, as the wind prevails; and, in accordance with such determination, proceedings were commenced and continued as fol­lows:

MINUTES 01<' THE BOARD, APRIL 15, 1887.

"Special meeting of the Board of Commissioners for the Cure of the Indigent Insane of Nevada; fnll Board present. 1'ho following hlUliness was transacted; On motion, tho Board determined to build

a flume rthree feet wide and two feet deep from the Truckee river, . beginning at, a point about 200 feet below the ReuoRe<iuction Works dam, thence .following the course of the river 4,600'feet in length to the Nevada State Insane Asylum,. for the purpose of can'ying water to furnish power to run a Leffel turbine wheel and a Wibrahan rlJt.ary piston pump for pumping and other purposes, anf} claiming a water right from . the river for that purpose. The Chairman·was directed to order said wheel and pump." .

"A prolm8ition from the Reno Smelting Works to furnish the Asylum with water from their flume for two 'years at. $200 per year was read and declined, and the Chairman instructed to inform Dr. Bishop that the Board would entertain nothing but a 'permanent proposition. "

The location of the said water right was madeon April 19, 1887, as will appearbyoopy of notice as follows:. '

"To all whom it may concern: Notice is hereby given that the State of Nevada, acting by and through its lawfully constituted Board for the care of the indigent insane of said State, said Board cow;isting of the Governor, State rrreasurer and Controller, claims and records by this writing the right to appropriate and divert from the Truckee river, in Washoe county, :Nevada, one thousand (1,000) inches of the waters thereof according to miners' measurement, for uses hereinafter described, said point of appropriation to be at a fJoint on said river about one hundred and fifty feet east of what is . known as the Reno Reduction Company's dam.

"The said State of Nevada by and through said Board also hereby claims the' right to construct and maintaip. a flume for the safe diversion, appropriation and conducting of the waters above described, from said point, along the north bank of said river to t4e Nevada Insane Asylum, a distance of about 4,600 feet, and thence to the Truckee liver at a point above or near the mouth of what is known as the Auburn Mill Ditch. Said water flume, the right to construct and maintain which is hereby claimed and located, shall be called and known as the "Nevada State Insane Asylum Flume. " The said flume, as to its terminus and general course, has been hm'einbefol'O described, and the same is more particularly indicated by a plat of tlw same, which is here inserted and made a part of this claim, location and certificates [Plat], and tIlis notice and certificate thereof further shows that said right to and of 1,000 inches of the flowing waters of said Truckee river hereby located in the name of the State of Nevada, is to be maintained by said State and diveI'too at said point, therefrom to be conducted by means of said fimpe, the same to he of the size of twenty-four by thirty-six inches, 01' of sufficient sir.e for cal'l'ying the same to the Nevada State Insane Asylum, thero to be used by said Stat<l as a motive power in pump­ing and impcling necessary machinery in and about said institu­tion and for domestic and agricultural purposes.

W:orks company, but objection being made to (-tossing the land of sa.id eompany, work was stopped and a member of the Board of CQmmissioners for the Care of the Insane went to· Reno to learn the n,ature of the objection. . . . Mr. Howell, President of the company, and Mr. Thomp.'IOll, one of the TrusWes, were found and asked wbat possible objoc1ion they

. could ha.ve to crossing their land at the edge of the river,be1ow all theil' works, as contemplated by the Asylum authorities, and where it seemed utterly impossible that they could. be damaged toJhe ex­wut of one farthing.

Mr. Thompson, acting as spokesman, said that by digging a ditch bo~low their ditch and flume tlley would be weakened and possibly undermined. and washed out. He was answered that it was not IH'Oposed to dig any ditch, lJUt that a flume was to be put in, and instead of weakening their ditdl or flume it would strengthen 01' support them, and would act as a breakwater for them in case of high water in the river. He then :;aid that they might want to use the space betwoon their flume and the river for dumping ground for slag. He was answered that the State's flume would not prevent its use for that purpose, as the flume could be covered and they could dump over it, and though the State might be damaged they cer­tainly would not. Next, he said the Commissioners for the Insane had no authority for using money in that way for procuring water, and that he; as a taxpayer, objected; and further, that the Com­missioners had no· legal right to build across their land anyhow, damage or no damage, and that water could be procured in other ways at less expense.

He W88 asked how it could be procured, and answered in several ways. He was then asked if he had any proposition to make and he answered: If Mr. Howell has none to make I have a proposi­tion to offer. He waS asked to state it, and he answered by saying that he would bring in the Hunters creek water and sell so much of it to the State as might be required, at a fixed rate per month. Replying to this proposition it was said: You think then that the Commissioners have ample authority to buy water of you, but no right to go to any expense t{) take it from the river t 'VeIl, we are not inclined to buy any water in that way, but desire to procure a permanent water right for the Asylum. We believe that your objections to crossing your river bottom are utterly groundless, and that only the State could be damaged should damage occur by reason of such crossing.

We do not ",-ish to damage you in any particular, and we do not intend to; but we believe we have the legal right to cross your land with a flume for the purpose of conveying water to the Asylum­and that we can do so without damage to you-and we 'propose to test that right.

The conference Wa.'! then brought to a close; t.he Commissioner returned to Carson and reported, and on the 20th day of. April,

Reno, May 3, 188.7.

Governor Ste\'cnson returned to Carson (''ity and submitted the proposition to the Board on the same day it was offered. It was &ccepted by a unanimous vote of the Board, and contract was ordered dxaWll in accordance with said proposition. The Reno Smelting and Refining Works were immediat~ly notified of its acceptance.

It should be borne in mind that under the water right located by the State, the water was to be appropriated and diverted from the 'l'ruckee 1'i yer at. a point ane h'l.!ml1'cd and fifty feet bdf{w the da'rn of the Reno Smelting, Milling and Heductioll Works, and an the land of Bailey &; JlcI(iJ3mck; that from the timework was stopped at the proposed point of diversion, because of theobjeciions of the Reno Smelting, Milling and Reduction \Vorks, on or about April 19, 1887, to May 3d, when their proposition HH Hbove set forth was accepted, and pending the selection andappoilltmellt of appraisers 'for settlement of the qUe.'Jtion of damages-work had been continued on the State land below the Reno Smelting, Milling and Reduction W (Irks land, in grading for and constructing a flume 'to carry the water sought to be appropriated, wnd that said g1'ading and' flume 'wm'e n(](!;rUJ! completed; that the water was to be divcrted on the land of Bailey & McKissick and conveyed across th~ir land a distance of fOUl' hundred and fifty feet 01' more before it reached the land of the Reno Smelting, Milling und Reduction Works; thence across the land oUhe Reno Smelting, Milling and Reduction Works, a dist.'lnce of about four hundred and fifty feet:; and thence across State hl.1lu a dishlnce of about thirty-seven hund1'ed feet to a point 011 the river opposite the Insane Asylum; tl(~t ,a darm cauld not be built on tiM} I~e land witliO'ld backing 1tp the 1vutlJl'U'pon and deIJtroyin!J the power of the P.eJ'tO 8Tfwltin!J, lrJilfinfj and Re(Zv.etir.1fI, lVO'i'kaj and that, although ~e ,dam of the Reno Smelting, ,Milling

and Reduction Works cost only about $1,500, the Board of Commis­sioners for the Insane accepted the proposition to pay $1,400 to aid in constructing a,llew dam for that corporation for the privilege' of collnecting with and taking water from said dam and gaining an additional fall of seven or eight feet. .

On the acceptance of the proposition work was immediately com­menced on a new grade for Asylum flume, seven or eight feet :.'. higher on the rocky river l)ank than the first, and it was pushed to completion. The flume was raised on to the new grade and con­nection wa.'; lUade \"ith the- Reno Sme1t.ing, Milling and Reduction Work's penstock as per agreement, (In or about July 1, 1887, and the water was turned into the flume.

The Board of Commissioners for the Insane had caused a contmct to be drawn up in accordance with the terms proposed by the Reno Smelting, Milling and Reduction WfJl'ks on May 3, 1887, soon after acceptance of the proposition, and w.mt it to the Board of Trustee..'1 of the corporation to be signed. 'l'ime IJassed, and as the contract was not returned, the Board of Commj~ioneTs for the Insane, while not doubting the good faith of the Reno Smelting, Milling and Reduc· tion Work's Tmstees, wrote and urged that it be signed and l'eturned, as a matt~r of business, as the State had already gone to great expense in making changes in accordance with its provisions. But not until after connection had been made with their penstock, and the State was using water therefrom, through its flume, was a reply received. The reply was, in effect, that some of the provif:.1.ons of the contract sent them were somewhat objectionable, and was ac.com­panied by a contract drawn by order of the Board of Trustees, with the objectionable provisions elimellated, and with the request that it be signed by the BoaTd of Commissioners for the Care of the Insane. This contract was dated July 8, 1887, and in it was incorporated a resolution of the Board of Trustees of the Reno Smelting, Milling and Reduction Works, which the contract shows was "adopted and entered of record on the minutes of IJroceedings of said Board on the 7th day of .July, A.

"And the President and Se<:rl:wry of thi!~ corpol'ation be, and they lu:rel-,yare, duly authoriz<j(j and empowered, in the name and on behalf of ~<;aid Heno Smelting, ~1illing and Redu<..1ion Works, to enter into :1 (:ontract with said State of Nevada in pursuance of this re:-;olurion, and to properly extcute the same with said Commis­sioners for the Care of the Insane f)f said State.

"The Boord of Trustees adopu'<1 said resolution by tpe following vote: Y ~as, three; nays, none.

" '1'he Board then adjourned. "

The contract was drawn in stric·t accordance with the ternlS of the resolution, except a IJl'ovision as follows: "Provided, that if the said sum of fourteen hundrcd dollar~ is paid at, and upon the commence­ment of :wtiYe operations in the construction of said dam, by said first party, then such payment shall be deemed a compliaur.e with tJle a 1)ove covenant for the payment of ~d sum by said second party to said first paIty."

Some of the provisions of the contract were Dot entirely satisfac­tory to the Board of Commis.<;ioners for the Care of the Insane, to wit: The provision "that any use or consumption of water by said second party shall not, at any time, conflict or interfel'e with the quantity of water thut will run through a· flume three feet by twelve feet in dimensioIls, in the cleul', belonging to said party of the first part." TheCommiEsioners desired the grade of the flume,

.' as then collstructed, to he gh-en; and the provision "that upon the wa..,hing out 01' dostruction of Haid dam, or any part thereof, hy reason uf floods or other caUH<:, without fault of said first party, said seC(Jl1r1 party will pay its jW'lt proportion for the reconstruction or repair>; of said dam." The (xJlTunissionel's desired to have the PI'OPOl'tioll specified in the wmtnwt. These ohjections were can­siflol'G'fl to he tho rosult. of ()YCl'siUht rather than of int(!llt, and the (Jollul1iB;jione1'8 believed that evcrything could be quicklyarmnged to the 8atisf~lCtion of hoth parties in joint meeting. Acting in accordance with this helief, tho Commissioners for the Insane com­lllunicated- with the Bo~u'J of Trustees of the nono Smelting,Mill.

. The full Board of Commissioners for tl}(~ Care of the Insane:repaired . to Reno on the day set, and met,\ithtlie Board of. TlUStef;8 of ·the Reno Smelting, Milling and PU!'fluethm Works, as per ap(Jf)intment. The Commis.<;iollm's had no thought of any diffitulty ill agreeing upon the terms of the contmct, hut, to their utter astonishment, the Board of Trustees of the Reno Sinelting, ~lilling and J{.e{]uction Works, without any preliminary discussion, l'epudiat.ed the agI'ee­ment under which the State had gone to such great expense in changing its flume and conneoting with the penstock of the corpor­ation and absolutely refu..'ied to enter into any such contract as· had been ngreed upon. . . A proposition was then made hy Reno Smelting, }'lilling and Reduction WOl'k's Trustees to furnif:lh tlte State with '\\'aterfrom their pellhiock, with which the Statefiume was then connected and. receinng wat{JJ', tiS per agree·ment herein hefore set forth, at a stated price per mcJtlth JOT one Yfar, but the Commissioner;; feeling, very naturally, that they had been outraged, as well as the State for whieh they wore acting, withdrew from the meeting withouL reply­ing to the proposition. Later, however, 'when Articles of Agree­ment were sent to' the ('ollunissioners for their acceptance, the Reno Smelting, Milling and Reduction 'York';; Trustees were in­fonned that no such contract or agreement would be entered into by the C~mllnissionel's. The said Articles of Agreement, rejected by the Commissioners, were in words as follows:

" Articles of Agreement made and entered into this twcntieth day of July, A. D. 1887, between the Reno Smelting, Milling and Reduction 'Yorks, a corporation represented by the manager, .John Howell, party of the first part, and the State of Xevada, represented by ito; Board of Commissioners for the Care of the Indigent Insane, party of the second part.

part, as hereinafter described, and it is further agreed and distinctly utider:,-tood between the Imrty of the fir:,"t, part and second, part heret{), that at the expiration of one yea.l' from the date' 'Of this UoOToom('nt first above writt-ell, that the party of the first partshalllmve tIle right t'O stQP the water frQm fI')U'ing into the flume 'Of the said party 'Of the second part, and that the part.y 'Of th(: !;OCOndpalt will give up peaceable poSS€s.'..;ion 'Of any rights they may have under this agreement to the right of ,vay for their flume 0\,,(:1' the land of the party of the fl.-cst part, alld the IJarty of the second part w:ill be per­m:itted to remove their flume 'Off the property 'Of the said party 'Of the first part; 11l"f)1)ided this agreement is not continued for a lQnger term by the mutual consent of the parties heretQ, or their representatives or assign';. "

This proposition the Coillmis!5i()n~n; (:.on~idered as adding insult t{) injury; and as it was a permanent watfJr I1ght that was lJeing sought for the State, and not a privilege, foSuIJj(;et tt) the caprice of any'man or body of men, the proposition was refusod. .

These prQceedings left tl)'~ end of thl; l;tate flume, wben disconnected from the penstock of the Reno Smelting, :Milling and Reduction Works, sticking up in the air, with no chance to, get to water with­'Out dropping the whole flume to a grade seven or eight feet lower again, so as to take water from the river below the dam of the Reno Smelting, }lj}ling and Reduction Works, at the point of appropria­tiQn by the State, as hereinbefQre set forth, or to go above the afore­said dam. The matter was fnlh' cOll:;idered by the Conunissioners, and in .-iew of the facts that. to ~gain change the grade of the flume would be very expensive, as well 8S necessitate the building of a flume across the land of the Reno Smelting, Milling and Reduction 'Vorks, and the opening up of the whole matter of arbitration or ap­pl'aisem mt again; that a wheel and pumping machinery had been bought and was then in plaee calculated for a fall seven 'Or eight feet greater than would be furnished hy slH:h change of grade, and that

.new machinery would have to be pl1rehased to suit the altered con­dition ; and that in serving the State it is })olitic to avoid contention when it can he done without prqjurlice to the State's interests, it was finally concluded and determined t(, avoid ( as was thought) all possible trouble by locating a wat~l' right on the south side of the river on the SQuth channel thereof, aBel on the Houth side of the north channel of the dver above the dam (Jf the Reno Smelting, Milling and l{eduction Works; and to reach tho point of appropriation with a flume, it was detcrmined to hridge the river below the land of the Heno Smeiting, Milling and Reduction Works and pass up 'On the south fiidp, and altoget.her aVQid sairl corlIOJ'lLtion'r; land.

In:carrying o~t their conclusions, the C-ommissionerS located the !: ,'1 right of appropriating one thousand inches of water froUl the two , channels of the river, at the point last above named, on the 1st of August, 1887, and on September 27, 1887, bought of O. Madden j the right of way for a flume up the south side of the river ant]· across '; Soott's Island fu the north channel, paying $300 th~refor. A bridge 1

was built, spanning the river, that was the bOBhiandpride of the , 1 architect and the adniiration of all mechanics who saw it, and a" ' ., :flume was built upon it. On the S(jutb side the grading WW1 done and flume built from the bridge to Scott's Island (which divides the river into two channels at that point) acrossthe south channel ofthe river. The cut through Scott's Island was dug to ' strike the river about fifty fret above the Reno Smelting, Milling and Reduction Works dam, but kfore a flume eould be laid therein and a headgate put in to make all secure, a complaint was filed in the Distrint Court by the plaintiff corporation, claiming damages accrued, amounting fD $1,500, and great prospective damages, and asking that the Com­missioners be enjoined and restrained from cutting through Scott's Island. The il~junction was granted, and work was stopped until it was shown to the Court that the incompleted work left the condi-tions unsafe in ca.'3e of a rIse in the river, and the injunction was raised to permit of its completion. About this time a mysterious flood occurred in the river, at the dry end of a dry year, but, for­tunately, we were prepared fOl' it with sacks of sand, and. no dam-age was done. The work was completed, and on the trial, which took place on December 16th to 21st, 1887, inclusive, no damages were proven, and the question of riparian ownership was the only question considered by the Court in his decision. The decision was to the effect that the corporation had the legal right to the full, natural and undisturbed flow of the waters of Truckee river, in its

. natural bed, past its ten-acre possesion on the north bank of said river. Appeal was taken to the Supreme Court as soon as the plain­tiff's delay would pennit, and in April, 1889, that Court decided " that the (''()mmon law doctIine of riparian right.'3 is unsuited to the condition of our State, and this ca.c;e should have been detennined by the application of the principles of prior appropriation. Judg­ment l'eversed, and cause remanded for a new trial."

Had the decision been otherwise where would have been the agri­cultural possibilities of Nevada? The new trial took place June 2, 1890, and a decision was l'endercrl in September following, which was in effect that the State had no right to take water from the river at. any point where it was raised above it.c; natural level by reason of the plaintiff 'corporation's dam. Proceedings are now being taken to appeal to the Supreme Court from this last decision of the District Court, for a final determination of the State's rights.

It is not now claimed that the State has no right to take water from the river above the plaintiff's properly, but that it has no right to take it at any point within tl,J.e three hundred feet above its dam,

'where the water is backed up, or at all affected in its flow by reason of said dam. It is not denied that it will not make a partiele .of

,difference in the corporation's flow of water whether a certain quantity of water is taken from the river ata pointwhereitCis backed· up hy its dam, or at a point half a mile above their back­water, but it is daimed that the State has no right to take water from any point where it is backed up, because by so doing it would be taking advantage of' the corporation's labor in erecting a dam.

The water might be backed up to Lake Tahoe and thus would everybody be shut out from the river. The tl1lth is, too, that it would have been much less expensive to the State to have reached the river and obtained a supply of water had no dam been there.

Thus, it will be seen, that the Commissioners for the Care of' the Insane, in their endeavors t6 avoid trouble, were met 'with more obstinate, if not more unreasonahle contention, and that they were beset with ob"iacles at every turn. Not only was there an unex­pected flood in the dry season-which happily was not disastrous­but shortly thereaft~r the fine bridge, heretofore motioned as being a model of' mechanical skill, through some cause as yet unexplained, was precipitated into the river and became a total wreck. A new bridge was built, and so far it has withstood all destructive forces with which it may have had to contend, and it is believed it will stand for many years ll.&r successfully withstanding the high water of last year.

The flume was completed in November, 1887, but the headgate has never yet been raised.

This is the history, in brief, of the "iruggle for a pennanent water right for purposes of the State Insane Asylum, and it will be seen, I think, that out of their own mouths comes condemnation of the parties controlling the Reno Smelting, Milling and Reduction Works for their actions in the mutter. .

The Commissioners for the Care of the Indigent Insane located a water right below the CfY)'j)(l/ydion plaintiff's dam, as they had an un­doubted legal right to do and in accordance with what they be­lieved to be a solemn duty in the interest of the State and its unfor­tunate wards. They did not locate it on State land, because a dam built on State land would }lave backed up the water and destroyed the corporation's motive power, and because the law would not have sanctioned such proceeding.

They had no intention of damaging the corporation by taking water from below its dam and crossing its land with a flume at the edge of tho river below all its works, and such action would not have damaged it in the slightest measure.

They WOl'e led to abandon the location so made by a proposal made by the corporation-which was accepted and took the form· of agreement-to l'ruse the State flume and connect with its penswck and take water thcrefroIllfl'~ QjcJWI1'gc, until it could build a new

. ·~dam,after. which the State was to connect. its flume pennanently . with the dam, and take therefrom one thousand inches of water, .. subject, of course., to the corporation's prior appropriation of the 'quantity that would flow through its flume of the dimensions of three feet by twelve feet, and as then constructed, and for all of which the State was to pay the sum of fourteen hundred dollars. . The change in the flume was made at great expense; and con- . nection was made with the penstock of th~ corporation, as had been agreed, and with the corporation's consent and assistance, and then

. it refused to execute a contract in pursuance of said agreement, and refused to furnish water from said penstock except at a certain price per month ff))> one yea~·. .

To avoid the necesity of again chanf,..jng the State flume, and the purcha...c::e of n(:w pumping machinery with all attendant expense that a change of grade would neces5iUtte; and to avoid the corpora­tion's property E:ntirely, and therehy to avoid any further trouble, the Commissioners crossed the river, bought a right of way for a flume on the south side thereof, and located a water right appropri­ating one thousand inches of water from the two channels of the river, in part above the dam of the corporation plaintiff, and sub­ject, of course, to its prior appropriation. In this action there was also no thought or intention of damaging the Reno Smelting, Milling and Reduction Works, and notwithstanding the corporation has followed the Board of Commissioners with persistent legal conten­tion, it has failed to establish that it either has been or will be dam­aged in the sligh est measure by any action of the said Board .

. This is the whole thing in a nutshell, and for this the Commis­sioners have suffered all sorts of villification and abuse for nearly four years, through the ex-parte statement'i of the parties in control of the Reno Smelting, Milling and Reduction Works and the under­lings in their employ; but when the facts, as here stated, are known to the people they will not be slow to determine the right, and to their judgment this statement is submitted with full confidence that the honesty of purpose of the Commissioners for the Cate of the Indi­gent Insane in this matter will be fully vindicated.

Very respectfully, J. F. 'HALLOCK,

Commissioner. To the best of our knowledge and belief the foregoing is a true

statement. FRANK BELL, G. W. RICHARD.

,Of the twenty-t.wopatients discharged, twenty were 8(mtoutas cured and two were permitted to go with friends, in an iruproved condition. The per cent. of CUT('S to number reooived h; :ilM- per cent., as will be seen by the tables.. .

DEATHS. • -. - j

TwentY-f!even deaths occurred during the term, being an f!nnual percentage of 5!lo on the whole number treated. When the broken down condition of chronic patients is' taken into con<ridera­tion, this is a low death rate. I)uring the term no patient has died of acute di<>ease, with the exccI,iion of one, who was brought to the Asylum with cerebral congestion, far advanced, and who died soon after admis.'3ioll. Of the remainder, five died of brain softening, tbrre of phthi~;s puhnonalis, two of apol,lex:y, of cancel' one, diabetBS one, epilepsy two, general paralysis three, marasmus one, eX(.'(lS..uve u.<;e of morphine one, senile :gangrene . one, alcoholism one, and one of ulceration of the stomacb.

INCREASE.

There were 167 patients in the Asylum at the date of our last re­port. At this time we have 181 patients, l)eing an increase during the term of 14. This is an increase below the average in many other States, and while those in charge of most asylums are asking for more room, this Asylum will not be greatly crowded at the end of ten years, should the former rate of increase continue.

For per cent. of increase, cures, di'3Charges, deaths, cost o~ main­tenance and all things in which the public have an interest, see tab-ula.ted statemenUJ. .

IMPROVEMEX'l's..

The most important improvement during the term was the erec­tion of an electric light plant, which is, in aU I'espects, a great im­provement over the former mode of lighting the institution.

It is perfectly safe, brilliant, and so inexpensive that it is difficult to estimate the exact cost. An occasional lamp and a gallon or two of lubricating oil per month is about all that can be charged against it.

WATER SUI'PLY.

The supply of water is abundant und pure, and is furnished at a billing cost by the ~e power which generates the lights.

·Of the expenses of'this biennial term's work, no reaSl)Mblo com­plaint can he made. It will be.- seen, that although over six thous­and dollars were 'used for permanent improVfoments, the expenses were kept within the appropriation of eighty-five thousand dollars. All friends of the institution 'will be pleased at this showing, which was brought about by economy in all things, where economy could be u.sed without in the slightest degree infringing on the comfort of the patients by. economizing ,inq~ntity or in qll3lity of. their c10thlng or food supply. . . .'

Sagebrush and drift-wood have been used, almost exclusively, for fuel, therEiby saving to the Stat{) many thousands of dollars.

An ornamental gardener has been difolpellse~l with, and the grounds keptin good cond~tion by the patients, under the direction of one of the attendants .

. The vegetable garden this term was very produc1ive, and pro­duced nearly all of the vegetables required at the institution, and of potatoes and hay we had several tons for exchange. .

The saving to the State in this biennial term, over and above what the cost would have heen had the patients been kept in California, at the same rate as formerly, was over seventy-five thousand dollars, being an amount greater than was expended in the erection of the . Asylum buildings in this State.

ACKSOWLEDGME..."'TS •

. Before closing my report I desire most cordially to thank your Hon­orable Body for the intere&i manifested by you in the Asylum and its inmates, and for the steadfast support rendered the present man-agement. .

My thanks are also due to Mr. W. IJ. Bechtel, our Clerk and Supervisor, who has performed his arduous duties with great zeal and efficiency. Much of the success of the present management is due to his watchfulness and, ability. ,

Thanks are also extended to :Mr. Edwin Barlow, both for faith­fully discharging his duties and for tile fine mUb1C furnished for the entetiainments; also to Mrs. Barlow, Matron, and to all \ employes of the institution. .
