The Carroll Record is advocating action
by the coming legislature to provide Il REM
edy for the tramp nuisance. The suggestion
is made that workhouses be erected in every
county, in which the tramp shall be lodged
after due process Of law and where he shall
be required to work for specified time IS u
penalty for his intrusion upon the State.
1t is not explained how or at what Mr..
Hobo shall be made to work, nor is 1t sug
gested what penalty shall attach In case he
declines to work; il is not made clear just
what rights to. liberty he may have sacrificed
beyond that attached to begging and "no Wis
ible means of support for both of which
provision has been made in the law.
We are under the impression that the
workhouse remedy has been applied by some
States, but with indifferent success, having
been confronted with the condition best ex'
planned by the old aphorsm, one may lead
horse TO water but Que cannot make him
drink" and it remains to be explained how
a refractory inmate of the proposed work
house shall be dealt with; what penalty it
would be possible to attach to refusal to
work, when no more serious crime than
"tramping' would be charged against him.
We are not the Hobo's apologist, but that
he has certain rights that may not be in
fringed, we are certain, and we are of the
opinion that among those rights will be
found one that will render it very difficult to
coerce him into work He isprobably aware
of this and his horror of work having long
since been wrought into proyerb, it is prob
able that any such legislation as that pro.
posed by the Carroll Record would from the
beginning be dead letter and the work
houses erected be, lerforce, public dead
investment.
The Carroll Record should approach the
problem from another direction: among the
rights that Mr.. Hobo does not possess is that
of requiring upon demand, free meal; let
the Record educate it's constituency up to the
point of d, handing ovid pro qsto on the
woodpile, picking stones, grubbing, or other
odd jobs and il will be essaying som thing
wholly within the rights of all concerned
but we fear the workhouse proposition lacks
promise Of results.
