The following sensible remarks and

are from the Fulton Journal:
Ihe number of tramps is increasing
whether they are trsmps from necessity

probable that many of them were honest.
industrious men, who started in search of
WORK and not finding it were forced to
ADOPT the methods of the professional
tramp to obtain the necessities of life.
IL Is an indisputable fact that there are
tramps and without asking why Is high

work at living wages. let1s see what can

ameiiorate their condition. Daily in the

Oh 1Shest laboriug men, as well as men
I$ho have the appearance and action
of criminals and professional tramps,
all OF them begging for food or a
place to sleep. If city or village
provides place for them to sleep and
a place to get something to eat, it will
soon be everrun by professional tramps.
II no place is provided for them to sleep
or obtain food. many honest men in
search Of work are forced to 60 hungry
and sleep IN outbuildings. II the cities
and villages would provide a suitable
place for them to sleep. clean. wholesome
food for them to eat, and then compel all
applicants to work five hours on the
streets or at any other public work for
the food aud lodging, it would be an i'm
provement on the present condition of
affairs. The professional tramp does not
like to work and will give that city a
wide berth. while the honest man looking
for work will take pride in paying for his
food and lodging by going to work. 1t
is a shame In this land that men willing
to work should be forced to 90 unhoused
