OUESTION FOR THE VOTERS
Method of Oaring for Indigent' and .Unfor
tunate Under Discussion,
SUPERVISORS SUGGEST A COUNTY FARM
Proposition Will Itr Submitted nt (lie
AppniHchliiK Klrctlon (o Set
Aside' 20,nM) to Ua
(lie Land.
Tho county authorities are hopeful that
tho proposition to Issue bauds for tho es
tablishment of a poor farm will carry at
tho coming general election, an tlioy bo
lleve It Is tbo only solution of tho problem
of cnrlng for the Indigent olemcut of
Pottawattamie county and relieving the tax
payers of tho burden. Experience of ad
joining counties has shown that not only
can a county poor farm be made self sus
taining, bill In somo lnstnticoi), It has
proven a sovrco of revenue.
Under the law as It now stands, only
1 mill can he levied annually for the
county poor fund nnd this for several years
has proven InBUlIlclcnt to provldo for the
caro of the poor of this county. A 1-nilll
lovy averages about $13,000, whllo for sev
eral years tho cost of caring for the pooi
of l'ottawattamlo county has been In the
nelgborhood of $20,000. The poor fund has
been exhausted long heforo the close or
tho year and tho deficit has had to ho mods
up by drawing from tho general fund.
Tho county supervisors who hnvo given
tho question considerable attention have
for some tlmo been of the opinion that
tho only way to reduce tho cxponBo or
caring for tho public charges, Is to es
tablish n county poor farm. At their last
session, It was decided to submit the propo
sition to the voters. The proposition In
short Is whether the county shall expenn
a sum not to exceed $20,000 In the pur.
chase of land and tho erection of suitable
buildings for a poor farm nnd levy a tax
not to exceed 1 mill on tho dollar each
year for the next two years. In tho ovent
of the proposition carrying the poor farm
would be paid for In two years;
Kxnrrlent'r In Other Counties.
In their Investigation tho county super
visor learned that Harrlstm county for
number of 'years has had a poor farm,
which has been self sustaining. In Mills
county tho same was found to be the
caso, while In soveral counties In othc
parts of tho state tho supervisors secured
statistics showing that the poor farms with
careful management have not only proven
bo If sustaining, hut are bringing in
revenue to the county. While the supct-.
visors of this county do not expect thnt a
poor farm hero can bo rnado a sourco or
revenue from the start, they do believe that
If properly and systematically managed, It
can bo made nt least self sustaining within
a very short time.
It suitable land ran bo procured at it
moderate figure It Is tho Intention of th
county board, In tho event of tho propo
sition meeting with favor at tho hands of
tho voters, to purchase not less than
eighty acres and possibly a quarter section
of good farming land. On this suitable
buildings will bo erected. The buildings
will bo plain but substantial and of such
a character that they can be added to from
timo to time If found necessary.
Supervisor Hunsen, whllo In tho city yes
terday, said ho was hopeful that the propo
sition would carry, as It certainly would
be to the benefit of tho taxpayers, upon
whom the burden of caring for tho poor
roll. Ho said: "The establishment of n
county poor fnrra Is In my opinion tho
only rolutlon of caring for tho pauper elo-
ment, which Is nnd will always bo with
us, at tho least posslblo cost. There are
many reasons why this county should
havo a p.oor farm. One Is that It will
surely tend to lessen tho number of per
sons now receiving aid from tho county.
Ilrnrllln Are Aiinrrn(.
Thera are many persons who do not
hcsltnlo to tako from the county so long
ns they are not called upon to glvo any
thing In return for It. This especially ap
plies to nblebodlcd persons. Now. it 1b
a well-established fact that this class of
peoplo will not go Into a pnorhouse, where
they will bo called upon to work In re
turn for tho support that they recolvc.
With a poor farm tho county will bo rid
of this class of paupers. Then again, un
der tho present systoni, tho county Is
obliged to pay rent for tho dwellings occu
pied by n number of old and destitute
women and others who nro without means
of support except such as provided by tho
couuty. These tropic would bo far bet
tor eared for on a poor farm, whero the
would get proper nourishment and when
necessary proper mcdlcnl nttendancc.
Again, tho poorhouso would bo n bolter
plnco for tho children of theso pauper
families. They would be well provided for,
sent to school nnd their morals looked
nfter, which In n city cannot bo done. For
my part, I bellevo It is to tho best Inter
est of every taxpayer In Pottawattamie
county to cast his voto In fnvor of the
proposition."
The proposition hns been hut llttlo dis
cussed In the city, but what has been
hhows that the peoplo generally aro In
favor of a poor farm. Such reports ns havo
been received from .tho county generally
show that tho farmers nre In favor of It, an
they believe It will lessen their taxes In the
years to come.
