GOVERNOR MAKES CHANGE IN
NORFOLK HOSPITAL.
ALDEN AND NICHOLSON LEAVE
Announcement of Change Comes as
Shook to Norfolk People Dr. J. T.
Hay Will be Superintendent and Dr.
Q , A. Young Assistant ,
Dr. Aldcn , miporlntondent of the
Nebraska Insane hospital In Norfolk ,
and Dr. NIcbolRon , his assistant , to
day rocolvod letters from Governor
Mickey asking for tbolr resignation.
The resignations are to bo ( lied nt
once. Dr. T. J. Hay of Lincoln will
bo made superintendent , and Dr. G.
A. Young , wbo WIIH assistant to Super
intendent Fred Teal when the old In
stitution burned , will bo assistant ,
Their now terms of ofllco will begin
next Tuesday , May 15.
The announcement of the change
came as n shock to Norfolk people
and at llrat it waa thought that some
mistake had been made.
Only this week n party of Norfolk
men Including Judge Barnes , C. E.
Hurnham , M. D. Tyler and Dr. P. II.
Suiter wont to Lincoln to talk the
situation ever with Governor Mlckoy ,
and It was believed by these men that
both physicians would remain.
Norfolk and northern Nebraska people
ple generally will bo relieved to know
that there lias been nothing wrong In
the operation of tbo hospital , and that
tboro was no mistreatment of patients
or other abnso of them.
Dr. Alden comes from Pierce , and
did much effective work during his
term In the legislature to secure for
northern Nebraska the rebuilding of
tbo Institution that had burned. Ho
has accomplished a great deal of work
at the Institution , In tbo way of get
ting tbo grounds Into neat condition ,
since the now buildings were erected.
Dr. Nicholson came from St. Paul ,
Nob. Ho In related to the Salter fam
ily In Norfolk. Ho came exceptional
ly well prepared for service in tbo In
stitution , having bad military training
In sanitary engineering.
Dr , Nicholson said ever the telephone
at noon that tbo letters calling for the
resignations had arrived and that
there Is but ono thing to do In the
matter , and that is to comply with
the governor's request. Ho stated
that bo did not Intend to return to St.
Paul and that ho docs not consider tbo
matter definitely settled as yet. Now
developments are expected soon.
Dr. Alden , when seen , said that ho
had not decided what action bo will
tako. Ho eays before ho resigns ho
desires nn open Investigation and Is
willing to submit to the result. Ho
feola that as no charges are brought
against him , that ho Is entitled to nt
least a fair bearing , and that all ho
wanta Is fairness and justice. Ho
says that the Impression that there
ban been friction nt the hospital Is a
mistake. There has been no trouble
between himself and Dr. Nicholson
and they never passed an unkind
word.
Concerning the change , tbo State
Journal says :
Trouble has boon brewing at the
Norfolk asylum for a number of
months. The Immediate cause of the
governor's action Is understood to bo
constantly growing friction between
Superintendent Alden and his assist
ant which made it impossible for the
Institution to bo conducted properly.
About a month ago , Governor Mick
ey was called to Norfolk on the com
plaint of the asylum farmer , Mr. Wolf ,
who alleged that certain cruelties
were being practiced at tbo institu
tion. A thorough Investigation waa
made at the time. Mr. Wolfe had re
signed and other attendants , whom he
accused of improper conduct as at
tendants , bad been discharged before
the governor got there. At the time ,
It was thought the Immediate cause
of friction In tbo asylum bad been
removed and that with the shaking
ui > given , matters would soon right
themselves and run smoothly.
Relations Strained.
It appears now that no complaint
exists as to tbo treatment of patients
at Norfolk and the governor believes
that they have been given good care
but tbo social relations existing be
tween the superintendent and bis as
sistant have become strained so that
they are barely upon speaking terms ,
which necessarily does not result In
the good of tbo Institution. After
carefully Investigating the matter , and
having a personal conference with
both Dr. Alden and Dr. Nicholson and
friends of the two gentlemen , and
with prominent residents of Norfolk ,
the governor concluded that bo could
pursue out ono course. It Is under
stood that tbo resignations will bo
forthcoming without controversy and
that the successors will be in ofllco
on tbo date mentioned.
Drs. Alden and Nicholson were in
Lincoln several days ago nt which
time they , together , interviewed the
governor. Then , It Is the belief , that
tbo governor asked them to resign ,
which request they did not at once
comply with. The information Is that
they were unable to settle their own
differences and neither believed him
self alone responsible , hence the ne
cessity of action on the part of the
governor , who decided that It was best
both should go.
On Monday a number of Norfolk
people , including Judge Barnes and
Dr. Salter , paid a visit to Lincoln and
Interviewed the governor concerning
the case.
Dr. J. T. Hay , who will succeed Dr.
Alden , has been assistant superinten
dent under Dr. J. L. Greene at the
Lincoln hospital and Is an acknowl
edged authority on mental disease H.
Dr. Young IB now pathologist at the
Lincoln asylum and Is ono of the Im
portant members of the staff at Lin
coin ,
The requisition upon tbo force that
Dr. Greene has gotten together will
leave a big gap but It Is understood
that the governor has already begun
the search for successors at Lincoln
and that < o succeed Dr. Hay an Oma
ha physician may bo selected , If ho
will undertake the work. No namea
were given out yesterday nt tbo state
IioiiKo In connection with the succca
slon hero.
Dr. Alden'a homo Is at Pierce. Dr.
Nicholson Is from St. Paul.

YANKTON AND NORFOLK LINE.
Railroad Men Say That New Road Wil
be Built This Summer.
Talk of a railroad being built be
tween Norfolk and Yankton , S. D.
tbls summer , is on the increase among
railroad men In this section. It is
known that the Union Pacific com
pany has Its eye on the territory between
tweon Norfolk and Yankton In pretty
definite shape , and It is also knowi
that the Northwestern Is looking afte
the tract between this city and the
South Dakota point. Railroad men
who are pretty well on the Inside be
llovo that the line will bo built this
summer.
It Is pointed out that a road between
Norfolk and Yankton will open up new
country , and a good territory. I
would work well from both ends o
the line , going and coming , and thl
Is always considered a good propos
tlon by railroad builders.
It would throw open a very larg
territory to bo drained through thl
point , and is considered as a deslrabl
line for laying of rails.

Attorney Jack Koenlgsteln and Dr.

Attorney Jack Koenlgsteln went , to
Stanton at noon accompanied by TJir.
J , .O. Meyers ? to try a law suit In tlie
county court In which a horse Is jn-
volved. The client of Mr. Koenigstoln
bougnt a horse for $100 , gave a check
to the former owner and then stopped
payment on the check In the Hosklds
bank. The recipient of the check now
sues for payment of the check.
The defendant in the case alleges
that the owner , in selling , declared
that the horse was "sound and all
right in every way. " He further de
clares that the horse proved to be un
sound , after having been driven home ,
and that the animal tried to walk
over all of the fences In sight
He therefore alleges that the horse
was not sound and all right , and he
will try , In court , to establish this
fact. He is willing , It Is said , to pay
what he considers a fair value for the
horse.
Dr. Meyers went to Stanton to give
expert testimony as a veterinarian In
the case.
