THE CITIZEN.
/
A Tilt With An Oakland
Farmer.
That was a ringing appeal in a late
issue of a Bntler paper by a fanner to
fanners against a poor farm, to-wit:
"Farmers of Oakland township, do yon
want a change? Do yon want
higher aDd increasing poor taxes
from \~ear to year'/ Are you not taxed
heavily enough now, farmers of Butler
county How many of you farmers
are not encumbered with a mortgage?
Most of us are working for the money
lender, why voluntarily add to our
burdens?"
And how heavily are the farmers of
Oakland township loaded down with
poor taxes'; As increased from year to
year, what sum has it reached that the
ont-c'ry is for a halt? The appellant
tells us a half mill per year on the dol
lar! Do yon realize it? One twentieth
of one cent per dollar! Out of 2.(MX)
cents one cent set aside for poor tax!
This is the straw that breaks the cam
el's back, "farmers of Butler county.
"Most cf us are working for the money
lender, why voluntarily add to our
bnrden ?"
"Most of" The writer does not
specifically include himself. Perhaps
he has some money laid by. But, broth
er, if yon too have a mortgage, is the
encumbrance not on the other man s
fann? "Honest Injun," are you not a
money lender? Yon have a large heart
for all fanners, this time including
yonrself. But how about your right
eous indignation against the money len
der, and vour sympathy for tho.*e who
have succumbed in the struggle for ex
istence, and are not on Uncle Sam s
pension roll.
Why such appeal to the farmers as
a gainst the town? Why. in certain
quarters, persist in assuming that the
country as contrasted with the town is
overburdened with an nndne propor
tion of taxation. The point has bobbed
up before during this discussion, and
has been answered. "Citizen" wants
to know if the capitalists of the town
of Butler pay in proportion to their
capital as the farmer or any ether good
citizen or taxpayer? Certainly, and
more. Butler, with one-sixth the pop
nlation of the county, pays one-fifth
the tax, don't it? The statement has
not been refuted. Why draw this line
against the town? Its prosperity, the
productive hum of its varied enterprist s
set in motion and sustained by the cash
of its capitalists, furnishes a home
market for the produce of the farmers
and employment to many of their sons.
And in turn the town needs the coun
try. it's patronage and co-operation.
In the very nature of things, with
the good farming lands general occu
pied, the tendency of population is to
the towns. A large number of the new
comers bring their labor as only stock
in trade. Even broken down fanners,
with scant means, drift thither. So do
the shiftless of the county; likewise
that class that tends toward vice.
Criminality is the trend of pauperism
in town or country. This may prove a
cancer on the body politic, a menance
even to quiet retreats in the country.
We are living in a period of unrest; and
business depression and want are pro
lific of danger. In the study of the
problem it has been found that wisdom
is the better part of valor and an ounce
of prevention, as in conflagration and
contagion, is worth a pound of cure.
In this matter of caring for tli« help
less and shiftless moving hither and
thither,town and country must go hand
in hand. The county forms the proper
orguntic unit. And the county alms
house, furnishing adequate home com
forts to the destitute worthy, and de
partments of surveillance and custody
for those of questionable morals and
evil intent, is an important factor in
dealing with a sociological problem that
is becoming dangerously yital to the
public at large. There is such a thing
as taking too superficial a view of the
question; of being nearsightedly penny
wise and grossly pound-foolish; of hold
ing to mills and jeopardizing dollars.
Citizens of Butler county, look deeper:
look further! There is more at stake
here than the poor tax shekel. In ad
dition the phase of Christian humanity,
consider the public weal.
There is 110 portion of the commun
ity, in its families, barns and out-lying
I«>ssessions, less police-guarded, more
openly exposed than the farmer. The
more prevalent the spirit of Christian
ity, the state of general content and
tone of public morals, the safer is he.
Now as a rule there is also no class of
the community more provident and
less burdened with the care of the
needy than the agricultural. Look at
the record. We find some seyenteen
townships in the rural districts of the
county requiring 110 poor tax. They
are comparatively free fro-ii the fluc
tuations of trade and that peculiar
floating population that gathers no
moss. The community is respectable,
settled and steady. Yet may and will
happenings occur from within or with
out that call for the sheriff, an asylum
or jail We at times read of the most
unexpected portions of a community
startled by some deed of horror perpe
trated by the brood from a hot-bed of
crime in another locality, whose town
or township does not safeguard others.
And though the nest be destroyed in
one township it will surely build in
another. You want co-operative con
trol in this matter, an efficient uniform
system that reaches all over the county.
In voting for a jioor house we constitute
the county a uniform poor district.
with our county commissioners as a cen
tral board of supervisors over it. Un
der this hoard a steward and matron
would he in charge at the poor farm
The machinery to run it is to all very
simple. The outcome o» all its effi
cient and economy, ail this depends,
as first and last resort on yon, fellow
citizens and voters of Butler county,
who have it in hand to select your own
men to direct it. The county commiss
ioners, with scarcely an exception, are
from the townships. Farmers of Oak
loud township, farmers of Butler
county, can you not tind honest men
among yon worthy of your trust to
place over this thing? Take it in hand
and manage it. And, dear brother
from Oakland township, let ns not say
anything more about the money lender.
