LAWS FORM DIFFICULTY.
Through These, 1t Is a Hard
Matter to Secure Outside
Relief, That Coming From
The Township Trustees.

Indianapolis, Dec 26.-The annual
report of the board Of state charities
Cor the fiscal year 1907 will show that
ehere has been for several years a
steady decrease in the population OF
poor asylums in the state, despite the
increase in the states inhabitants.
Several conditions have caused this,
according to Amos w. Butler, secre-
tary OF the board.
Laws have been passed which make
It more difficult to get what is known
as outdoor relief, that is, relief fur
nished by township trustees. Instead
OF a lack of such relief driving the
poor to the poor asvlums it has driven
them to work more successfully for
food and clothing. Another law,
which has had a salutary effect is
that which requires ablebodied in
mates of poor asylums to be kept eu-
ployed. There are few ablebodie d
persons in the Door asylums now
Under the present law able bodied
inmates are required to assist in the
farm work. Refusal to work means
dismissal and the result is a striking
reduction in the number of able bodied
inmates. The matter of legal settle
ment is more carefully investigated by
township trustees. who alone have au-
tnority to remove paupers to the poor
asylum.
