1t is safe assumption that other
counties are drawing on theIp respect
i've treasures in the same proportion.
1t so we have the result that the
monthly demands for this purpose
alone foot up over $40, 600; and the
annual cost exceeds a quarter of a
million and is steadily growing and no
doubt will continue to grow so long
as the law stands upon the statute
booked in its present shape. 1t is
precisely the same as though AmadoI
was called upon to furnish from
$1,000 to S1700 every year for the sup
port of orphans. 1t is true we do not
contribute directly, but the state tax
is that much more than it would be
if the aid was given direct. We do
not wish to be understood as against
giving public aid to deserving parents
with half orphan children. They
must be supported, and should be
aided, if aid is absolutely indispens-
able, from the public funds. But the
system of shifting the burden from
the county to the state treasury is
vicious in its tendency, and leads to
abuses.
