The Cost Of thc COunty's Poor

A Democrat" calls attention else
where in these columns to the disap-
, pointment he experienced this year in
reading the annual statement of the
work of the board of poor directors.
Where heretofore the expenditures were
BET out in detail, they are this year
Jumped, and the exact information that
was heretofore attainable as to the
amount Of goods purchased from partic-
ular dealers, and the prices paid is now
lacking.
Why this radical departure Is made
this year, we would like the directors of
the poor to explain. There is no institu.
tion in the county in the management of
which the public are Interested to a
greater degree than that which disPenses
the charities Of the county. 1t has not
been SO long since the INTELLIGENCER
exposed the neglect at the lower hospi-
tai in the care exercised over patients,
and the shocking revelations were such
as caused the Inauguration of better meth
DDS and more humane treatment of some
OF the unfortunates who were at the time
charges upon the county.
The board of poor directors should not
fear the most exacting scrutiny of their
accounts. They should expect and invite
it. This county is wealthy enough to
permit its taxpayers to read tie full list
OF expenditures for the county's poor.
