PASSING OF THE POORHOUSE

In Illinois the poorhouse is being
abolished. 1t is time. II is Q dread
reminder of tile past. Like the
debtors' prison. it is associated
with some of the saddest scenes in
the worlds latter day history.
The poorhouse was once re-
garded as necessary. 1t has been
the theme Of many tragic stories
and has been the text of many
sad songs.
The poor are with US always.
They rare to be found on every
hand. 1t is the duty of the State
to- rare for those who cannot care
for themselves, and tie cloak of
charity should be gently spread
about all who suffer from want and
adversely.
Meth DDS of providing for the
poor have changed in the late
years. The time when the needy
are to be cared for ia the poor
house is near an end. There are
other ways and means now, and
they are far more practicable and
considerate. They are more effet-
i've and more humane.
The aim of the Illinois law is to
provide proper support for those
who are dependent on the State
but at the same time to provide
this support in a way that does not
make the recipient feel the sting
of charity and give a feeling of
confidence rather than one of de-
pendence.
1t is not mandatory, but any
county in the State is free to adopt
this plan. Six counties have
aready availed themselves Of the
privileges of the law and others
arc preparing to follow suit. If
the results are as satisfactory as
it is hoped they will be, other
States will no doubt emulate the
example of Illinois.
If this is done the poorhouse
will soon become a thing of the
past.
The history of the poorhouse in
America and England is one of
the rost depressing character.
Its squalor, it's accumulation of
misery, its petty tyranny, it's
periodical scandals are all sources
of regret. Prison is not so bad as
many of the poorhouses of the
country, and the sin and sorrow
ard slothfulness are never 90
keenly realized as in these insti-
buttons. The new way of handling
the poor, proposed in the Illinois
law makes the difference. New
advant ages are offered. Poor
mothers will be pensioned. and
will take care of their children,
instead of having to send them
to an institution. 1t costs the
State and the county so much now
to support every inmate in the
poorhouse. Under the new system
the amount is paid direct to the
pauper and furnishes means Of
support. 1t enables each to care
for the family as we'll. 1t trans.
forms the pauper to q paid en-

friends but a number Of Republic

Of men, who look first and last

TO THE VOTERS OF THE TWEL
Eth LEGISLATIVE DISTRICT:
It is perhaps to be regretted
that there is any such thing as
political parties in so far as they
seek to effect state government,
but they exist and a candidate is
necessarily upon some party
ticket.
I am a candidate for the legis-
lature, and, in the course of
things it comes about that I am
on the Republican ticket.
It goes without saying would
not be a candidate if I did not de-
sire to be elected.
I have been asked many times
why I sought an Office that would
occupy my time for sixty days, at
five dollars a day, when my time
at home is worth much more than
that. The question is worthy of
an answer. I am a lawyer and a
property holder in the stats and
expect to remain such. In both
capacities, I am interested in the
laws that measure my rights. 1
find our statutes full of laws that
are Of no benefit to the people
generally but that were passed to
fit someone's special case. They
are full Of laws useless and con-
fusing, many Of which are simply
foolish, while others are positive
~ harmful. On the other hand,
I find q woeful lack Of laws on sub
jects Of vital importance.
This is essentially q farming
state, and its future depends up
on its farming success. We have
no mines, no shipping and but
few manufactures, yet hundreds

portation and the rights and liza
bilities Of mine owners and opera

lions; but. when 1t comes to the

of our agricultural producers
we search in vain for many things
that would make certain their
rights. If a land owner employs
