States of New York, Penn- sylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Massachusetts, Wisconsin, and Michigan. A report made by the standing committee of the various State boards of charities to the National Conference of Charities in 1887 was, that " except for the insane, who are everywhere constantly accumulating beyond their due ratio to the whole population, there has never been for a period of five years any increase in the proportion of pau- pers to the population ; while for longer periods there has gener...ally been a decrease in the number of the poor as com- pared with the whole population " ; and this, too, notwith- standing the very great obstacles which stand in the way of all public and private effort for the checking of pauperism in a country like the United States, " which annually receives such armies of poor from European countries, and at home permits intemperance to breed so much of pauperism, espe- cially in cities. " In England, where the population, between 1875 and 1885, increased in a larger proportion than in any previous decade, there was no increase but a very steady decrease of pauperism ; or, from an annual average number of 952, 000, or 4-2 per cent of the whole population in 1870-'77 to 787, 000, or three per cent of the population for 1880-'84.
