Almost every county IN tne pthte
shows increased expenditures for out
door relief furnished the poor by the
infirmary directors. Secretary Byers
has just completed the footings on a
table giving the expenditures by coun-
ties and the number of people relieved
in each. The fact that this drain upon |
the county treasures has been increas-
ing for several years, induced the State
Board Of Charities to recommend that
a law be passed by the legislature abol
ishing outdoor relief as it is believed
TO lead to imposition. In 1887, the total
expended in the eighty.two counties
reporting was 1870, .6t. For the
year just closed only seventy-eight
counties reported but the expenditures
were $3.50, O,48l, ,9s, an increase of $40, 15O.-
81. The number of persons relieved
was 34.07S.-Ohio Stale Journal.
