GENERAL Poor LAW SUGGEsTED.-The
following circular is being circulated by the
Howard Benevolent Association throughout
the State: ITO The Honorable the Mayors,
Supervisors or Trustees of the Cities and
Counties of the State of California-Gentle-
men: The Howard Benevolent Association
of Sacramento has, during the twenty
years of its existence, done great work in
relieving the wants of the aged, intirm and
helpless. 1t is supported entirely by vol
untary contributions. OF late years the
Association finds the number of those re-
quiring aid to be greater than their funds
can relieve. Private effort in this regard
seems insufficient to provide satisfactorily
for this public want. and the burden falls
heavily upon q part of the community. We
feel, therefore, the necessity of having las
in the older States) a general State poor
law, to provide for this class of persons by
taxation, thus making their support fall
equally upon all. Believing that the jus
tice, as well us humanity, of the suggestion
will commend itself to your favorable con-
sideration we most respectfully beg leave
to ask You to cooperate with Us III securing
the passage of such Il law, by calling the
Legislature to the subject, and having them
properly instructed thereon"
