The failure of the farmers had a resultant effect upon the mer chants nnd business men in the towns and cities. To express tho situation tritely Kansas was "dead broke." It was about this time that Coxey raised his "army of the unemployed" in Kan sas and started with it on a march to Washington to "demand" relief from the national lawgivers. Together with many other counties of the state Finney county voted to provide a big poor farm, which would give employment and shelter to the large number of unemployed. After the vote had been submitted and carried, the county commissioner pur chased from A. II. Uurtis. afterward representative from that county, a tract of 292 acres of rich land. The price paid for the land was SIG.OOt). Beven inousanu more was pin mio c anlj jq uj0 me larni lor improvements, muKing a total of $23,030. The farm was di vided into a large number of small er farms, and on each sub-farm was erecteil a house large enough to ac commodate a dozen persons or more, l'ach sub-farm was under the control of a siib-siiperiuteiKleut. Having thus made elaborate prepa rations for the shelter, care and em ployment of its paupers, the county waited in vain for many years for an applicant. It so happened that tho year following the purchase of the poor farm was a very prosperous one, especially in Finney county. There was mi ininieiihe erop, money was plentiful, and there was employment for everyone who wanted it. The tame condition has existed ever year since. In all these years only one man ha?; ecr applied for care at the county poor farm of Finney county. Ife was an old man by the name of Henry Hook-. He only remained there a' few inoutlui during the wvere win ter weather, after which, having .se cured a position, he left, lie- is now employed in a hotel at Harden City, the county seat of Finney county, Charles Adams was the first man placed in charge of the poor farm of Finney county. He had been n farmer who, through crop failures, had lost his farm. He contracted with the county commissioners to assume charge of the farm, to take care of all paupers applying for care without ex pense to the county, paying the ex penses out of the., proceeds of the farm. As no paupers applied he had no expenses to meet. Although per fectly honest with the county, he made a fortune out of his contract. One day it leaked out that Adams hud saved up a bank account of something over ?25,000 out of the proceeds of the county farm. A row was started, and the county commissioners removed him. A closer contract was made with the next superintendent, but he also made a fortune out of it, and was removed under pressure from the out side. Then the county commissioners made a contract with the probate judge of the county to act as superin tendent of the poor farm, he to bo paid an additional salary for such su perintendence, to hfivo rent for him self and family free antl to turn tho proceeds from the farm into the coun ty treasury. Since the time of this contract the income from tho poor farm has ranged from 1.000 to $7,000 anniiully to the county. This is the condition of the poor farm of Finney county to-day. It is still awaiting paupers. The present superintendent is Probate Judge .1. 12. Dawson. He lives thorn with h' . family, hut being busy with his otlieitil duties he has a Kiibsiiperiuteudenl to look after the farm. The poor farm is located about three miles out of Garden City, DeWltt'a Witch Har.el Salve is un. equalled for piles, injuries and skin diseases. It is the original Witch Hazel I Salve.
