The City Hospital
Some of Ithe most notable ac
complishments of the people of

Just a Correction
The report is being circulated
tliat Mayor McAdams ordered
the release of Henry Gartner
within a few days of liis incar
eeauitaon in jail after his convic
tion and sentence for drunken
ness and assault As the facts
iin the case are contrary to these
reports a correction is due Mr
Gartner was released on order of
Mayor McAdams but not untiU
miruier umu spent aimost an en
tire month in the county jail at
an expense sto the city of 150
a day It may be added too
that a petition of over 100 sig
natures was presented Mayor Mc
Adams asking for Gartners re
lease And further three of
the complaining witnesses against
Gartner had askeel the mayor t
release him stating tliat under
the circumstances they thought a
months imprisonment was
ticient punishment The fine
against Gartner was also remit
ted on order of the mayor Mr
Gartner has a wife and two chil
dren elependent upon thim LTis
act was that of ti man crazed
with liquor but no real assault
was accomplished A little calm
consideration of tMs matter will
convince all who are fair and
frank and who do not seek es
pecially to elisparage the mayors
administration more than they
seek to accomplish justice and
mercy tliat the mayor has acted
hut fairly and mercifully in this
ease returning the man to his
family and itis support perliaps
a wiser man and relieving the
city of further anel perhaps pro
fitless expense
