COUNTY HOUSE WELL MANAGED

Tidswell, Complaining Inmate Was Questioned

TABLE IS ALL RIGHT

And Has Been For Months He Says--His Complaint of Old Date--Tidswell Himself Cuffed Wright

The superintendents of the poor met at the county house Tuesday and found that everything was being well cared for. Anent the recent complaints, Tidswell, an inmate who swore to a complaint of insufficient food and cruelty exhibited towards Frank Wright an inmate, was questioned by Superintendent Taylor in regard to the same. He said that the food had been all right for the past four or five months, ever since he had spoken to Superintendent Duffy, and that since then there had been no cause for complaint. He was asked why months after cause of complaint had been removed he rushed into print, but had no reason to give. As to the case of Frank Wright, he said he himself had cuffed Wright, because Wright was throwing stones Into the men'a sitting room and somebody was liable to get hurt. In other words be himself had been guilty of exactly the same conduct he found such a heinous offense in the keeper.

The house is kept spotlessly neat and the superintendents say that the table set is better than that of many farmers throughout the county and as good as a majority of them set.
