THE PAUPER QUESTION

When a city becomes noted abroad ms a
booming place, il soon becomes overrun
with lsborers and mechanics, who get there
generally dead broke. As matter of course
they cannot all get work right away, and
are dependent on charity. Such WAS the
case here last winter, and such, from all APP
pehrances, will be the case this year
People who are jealous Of our prosperity,
and others who do not look about them for
the cause, make great parade of the num-
Der of men who are idle in Wichita. The
fact is that none of our own citizens who
want TO work are idle. The well known
charity of the people of Wichita has
great deal to do with lazy fellows-tramps
hanging around. No one refuses them fol
something to eat and they live high toi
months, from house to house. If they ge
! sick they are cared for, and there Is hardly
day that some impicunicus person Is moi
shipped back to friends in the east. Thes'
things are becoming so well known that oul
people are imposed upon by great man,
| frauds. The prospect for a big erol
of this class, the coming winter
is first rate. Mrs. Rouse, manager of ih'
| Women's Benevolent home and hospital
says she has at the rate Of five applicants i
day at that institution.
INDECENT sick people ought TO be taker
care of, but tramps, after being fed ane
lodged one night should be compelled t.
skip, else there should be rock pile fol
their especial benefit. There may have &c
| be a tightening of the reins in this respec
| this winter
