Hancock Department
MOST POOR IN
THIS DISTRICT
Hancock Region Has More Than
Any Other Says Report

The Hancock district has more poor
people i, proportion to it's population
than any of the other districts in the
county, according to a report submit
ted by the board of poor superntend-
ents to the county board of supervisors
yesterday. The reiort says:
We find in the vicinity OF Albany
and Boston large number of the poor
living on rented lands. Nearly all are
widows with families ia a few cases
old couples from seventy to eighty
years of age; they seem To need coun
~ all TO enable them to exc out an
existence.
We also find in the mining locations
number of rude dwellings. abandon
ed by the mining companies. that have
been given over To the poor, rent free,
which seem To shelter a rather per-
manent poor colony.
The matter OF rents also in Hancock.
seems to draw those who lose the
wage Garner of the family The
town seems to have much greater
number of low priced tenement houses
, than any other community in the
county, and seems to be the mecca to-
ward which those VINO cease to be
housed by the mining companies make
their way. This is shown by the fact
that over one hundred WIDOWS or de-
serted wives with their families re-
side in this district. Almost as many
as receive help i'm the Calumet dis
trict which has 4 population five times
as great,
We find It more common custom
to pay rent for the poor in the Han
cock district than in the other dis
tricts of the county This. however,
mas become a tradition i'm the district
having been i'm custom for years past.
We also call attention to the fact
that this district, with its large num-
her of supervisors. through whom APP
plicants frequently appeal for aid or
for the reversal of a decision brings
the people of the district in somewhat
closer touch with the superintendent
Of this district.
We lind that the superintendent Of
this district fulfilled the duties of his
offices In Il capable manner and has Il
close acquaintance with the poor of
the district he introduced the appli-
cants b. name in nearly every case
and had a concrete knowledge of con-
ditions existing in each household
which many come only from constantly
keeping in touch with the changing sit
