Sach a method

but which has been overlooked or has had no friends

As a result of this species of
legislation a permissible bod7 of investments has been
built up, which while on the whole of a high grade
yet contains securities differing widely in some respects,
and which conform to no definite or uniform standard.
It aljO comprises anomalies, such as the inclasion of

imperative has been the need for very extensive new
additions.
The lapse of another year makes the argument in that respect all the more convincing. Between Jmuary 1 1893 and January 1 1898 the aggregate resources of the savings banks of this S^ate increased from $718,464,662 to 1869,761,244. Iq the

not set np certain general requirerestrictions, and let all roads come in that
fall within the limits so defined ?
The argument applies with equal if not greater
force to the list of muaicipal investments allowed the
savings institutions.
It may be recalled that it was
more particularly this feature of the law which gave
rise to such active discussion a year ago.
la other
words, much bitterness of feeling was aroused at that
time by the passage of an Act adding the bonds of Los
Angelep, Cal., to the list. Governor Odell, after
hearing arguments pro and con, finally gave his ap
proval to the measure, and no ill result has followed
from the inclusion of those particular bonds. The
fact is, however, that the method of specifying by
name is as objectionable here as in the case of the
railroad investments.
Outside of New York the
municipalities whoie securities may be purchased are
all separately specified.
There is no general rule
giving admission to all of like] merit and like characteristics.
As it happens, too, In this case the list
has been scarcely enlarged at all in recent years.
Los Angeles, brought within the fold last year, was
the first accession
since
1897, when Holyokf,
Mass., and Camden, N. J., were added.

list as
it now

Grand Rapids, Mich.; St. Louis, Mo.; Minneapolis
and So. Paul, Minn. ; Des Moines, Iowa ; Milwaukee,
Wis., and Los Angeles, Cal.
There are many other cities that might be added to
the list and for whose exclusion no valid reason can
be assigned. Would it not be a good idea to follow
the plan in vogue In some other commonwealths, and
name the States and lee all bonds of municipalities in
those States whose debt does not run above a certain
percentage of the assessed values form legal investments
taking care to make the limits strict enough to exclude everything involving a possible hazard, but
broad enough not to shut the door against anything
really desirable ?
How the present law works is illus
trated by the following letter which has come to us,
as already stated, from an ofl&cial of a leading town in
Massachusetts Brookline :

Editor Financial Chronicle:
Dear Sir— I come to ask for some information. If you
will take the trouble to look upon page 355 of the Treasurer's
report and examine the statement of the limit of indebtedness, yen will understand that inasmuch as other muEicipalities in Massachusetts can borrow money on long periods at a
lower rate than I have yet been able to do for this, the
wealthiest town in the world, I am naturally desirous of
availing of their facilities.
Their advantage arises from the fact that your State Legislature has approved their bonds as investments for the State
Savings Banks.
Will you be good enough to tell me what steps 1 shall take
n order to pet the matter before the Legislature with a pros
pect of as favorable action as they received?
ThackiDg you in advance for your courtesy, I remain,
Very truly yours,
Geo. H. Woethley,
Treasurer and Collector.
The foregoing letter is Interesting as emphasizing

by State laws to invest in the securities of a mun-

other muuicipallties In M^ssacbusetts, simply because,
he states, the New York Legislature has approved
the bonds of these other municipalities as investments
for New York savings institutions, but has not approved those of his own town.
If the different municipalities whose obligations
appear to be gool investments are to be picked out
by special selection, then there seems no reason whatever why Brookline should not be comprised in the
list.
The town on the first of February this vear had
a total debt of only $1,440,996, of which $263,686
consisted of water debt, leaving the net debt only
$1,178,310, which is less than 1^ per cent of the assessed valuation, this valuation lor 1902 having been
$86,093,800.
Certainly the bonds of a municipality
so situated as this ought to be a good investment. We
may suppose that they would be in the favored class
if any one had been suflBciently interested in them to
apprise the Legislature of their merits. The fact
tbat they remain outside the pale of the law is
the best evidence that the present method of extending the list in this State is defective, and that
some general provisions should be incorporated in the
as
statute broad
enough to admit
municipalities as favorably situated as Brookline.
Well
guarded restrictions and requirements are needful and
should be enforced, but they should be general, and
should place all municipalities of like grade and merit
upon an equal footing. This rule would obviate the
necessity for resorting to special legislation when some
desirable securities come before the public, would no
longer leave the Legislature open to the suspicion of
interested motives, and would do away with the need
for amending the law at each session of the Legislature^

MUNICIPAL BOND SALES LURING
1902.
At the end of this article we furnish two very ex>
tensive compilations, occupying a page, which together afford a complete analysis of the municipal
bond
sales for the calendar year 1902.
This
is
in con-
tinuation of the practice begun in our April SupplrMEi^T for 1902, in which we presented a similar analysis for the calendar year 1901.
As stated by us at the
time, it is our intention to continue these analyses
year by year. In the course of time, therefore, the
student and the economist will have data which should
prove very serviceable both for present use and future
reference.
We may repeat our remark of twelve
months ago, that no such comprehensive statements
concerning municipal bond sales have previously been
attempted anywhere except in the case of the decennial Censuses of the United States Government.
Dealing first with the grand aggregates we find that
altogether $148,463,584 of State and municipal bonds
were disposed of during 1902. Turning now to our
statement for 1901, the aggregate then is seen to have
been $131,549,300. Here apparently is an increase of
17 million dollars. At the outset, however, It is
proper to state that to the extent of, roughly, 9:^ million dollars the increase is apparent rather than
real.
Our
figures for
1902 comprise new bond
New York
is-
City to amount of $9,265,467
taken by the city sinking fund. In previous years
we have been unable to obtain statements of the new
Donds purchased by the sinking fund. Allowing for
this item, therefore, the increase would be somewhat
less than 8 million dollars Instead of 17 million dollars.
Of the $148,463,684 bonds put out in 1902, $22,309,461 were for refunding, leaving the net addition $126,In 1901 $16,731,457 out of $131,549,300
154,123.
were for refandlog, leaving the net addition in that
year $114,817,843. Thus in the net amount of bonds
put afloat there was an increase of about 11^ millloa
dollars.
This inciease is subject to the same qualifithat is, alcations as that in the grand aggregate
sues
of
—
April,
lowaoce must be mado for the inclusion in 1902 of New
York City bonds taken by the city's sinking funds. It
should be distinctly understood that in our compilations we have taken no account In either year of temporary loans Issued, as these represent no permanent
additions, being usually taken up out of tax collections within a brief period after their emission.

distribution of the new bonds. As in the previous
year, the bulk of the whole amount is found in the
North Atlantic Division, comprising the New England
States, together with New York, New Jersey and
Pennsylvania; $83,432,142 of new bonds out of the
grand total of $148,463,584 ctime from that section,
New York State alone furnishing $42,746,727 of the

had $76,782,641 of new bonds out of $131,549,300.
New York S^ate then figured for $37,377,211, against
the $42,745,727 in 1902, the latter including, as
already stated, $9,255,467 bonds taken by the New
York City sinking fund.
After the North Atlantic Division the North Central Division stands next in prominence, this having
supplied $45,779,061 of new bonds in 1902 against
$28,040,470 in 1901. Ohio comes in with $22,688,867
Cincinnati
in 1902, against only $10,650,000 in 1901.
is responsible for the bulk of the increase in that
State ; the city put out $7,810,000 of refunding bonds
to take up $8,000,000 of Cincinnati Southern binds
which had matured. Cleveland also had larger sales.
Its aggregate for 1902 having been $3,810,000, against
$1,277,000 in 1901 ; $1,200,000 of water bonds and
$700,000 of City Hall bonds figured in that city's total
for 1902, against nothing for either purpose in the
previous year. Missouri is another State in the North
Central Division which shows a greatly enlarged total,
it having put out $5,899,136 of bonds in 1902, against
But the $5,000,000 of bonds

issued by St. Louis in aid of the coming Exposition at
that point reveals the reason for this increase.
AH the other grand divisions record smaller totals
for 1902 than for 1901, namely the South Atlantic
Division, the South Central Division and the Western Division.
State bonds form an even smaller proportion of the
whole than in 1901, namely $6,908,000 against $13,672,800 for 1901. As is known, very few States are
adding to their bonded Indebtedness outside of Massa
chusetts, in which State there is no constitutional
limit upon the power of the commonwealth to borrow,
and where also the State seems to assume a number
of functions ordinarily performed by municipalities.
Massachusetts created $5,363,000 of new bonds (of
which 3^ million was for water, $748,000 for buildings,
$665,000 for grade crossings and highways, and $450,000 for park purposes), against $11,261,800 put out by
the commonwealth in 1901, of which $8,500,000 had
boen for water, $2,000,000 for sewer, $260,000 for
parks, besides $501,800 for buildings and armories.
Only six other States besides Massachusetts put out
any State bonds In 1902 and the aggregate for the
whole six was only $1,546,000.
Another instructive feature of these tabulations is
that it shows the amounts and proportions of bonds
issued at different interest rates. The greater part
of the new Issues bears Interest rates runniog from 3
to 4 per cent. The amounts put out at 3 per cent, at 3^
per cent and at 4 per cent aggregate $123,430,242, or
83-13 per cent of the whole, against $107,604,"? 94, or
81'79 per cent issued at these interest rates in 1901.
It should not escape attention that notwithstanding the larger proportion of bonds put out at interest
rates of 3 to 4 percent (indloatiog thereby that smaller
proportions were put out at rates above 4 per cent),
the tendency of Interest rates was nevertheless disof interest

Only 8*19 per cent

bonds was

and the
exratio for 1902 would be only 1*96 per cent
cept for the inclusion of the $9,255,467 New York
City bonds taken by the sinking fund, which were all 33;
only 51*74 per cent were 3^8, against 52 "41 per cent In
1901 ; while 2320 per cent were 48, as against no more
than 20-96 per ceat in 1901. These facts are made
patent in the following table. It is proper to state
that the $5,000,000 of Exposition bonds put out by St.
Louis in 1902 were 3:^ per cents, but have been included in our column called "Unknown and Unusual
Rates of Interest," because there was not room enough
in our compilations to insert an extra column for this
issue alone.

This item for 1902 Includes $5,000,000 3ii% Louisiana Purchase Hipositlon
bonds of the City of St. Louis, Mo.
*
As to the purposes for which bonds were issued,
only $20,682,329 were for water in 1902, as against
$32,101,416 in 1901. There are special reisons for the
falling off In this instance. Thus Philadelphia put out
$9,000,000 bonds for a filtering plant in 1901, as against
$1,600,000 for mains and fire pipe lines in 1902. In like
manner Los Angeles issued $2,000,000 for water in 1901
and nothing in 1902. The State of Massachusetts, as
already stated, disposed of but 3^ millions of water
bonds in 1902 as against 8^ millions in 1901. Generally speaking, more bonds were Issued for streets and
roads, for schools, for sewers, and for buildings, than
in the previous year.
The total of bonds which are
not classified (because they do not fall under any of
the leading heads), which was large last year, is still
larger the present year.
In other words $33,736,586
of bonds fall in the miscellaneous column this year
as against $24,738,602 in 1901.
A few leading items account for the balk of this
total of $32,736,586.
Tttus there are the five millioa
Louisiana Purchase Exposition bonds placed by St.
Louis ; $12,600,000 of Rapid Traaslt and $2,350,000
of Dock bonds put out by New York City, and $750,000 of Rapid Transit and Tunnel bonds, $100,000
Ferry and $1,349,000 various municipal bonds emitted
by Boston. The large items in the 1901 total were
$11,000,000 of Rapid Transit and $560,000 of Dock
bonds issued by New York City.
Of dlstinctlvely'munioipal bonds (cities, towns, etc.,)
$117,150,302 were placed in 1902, as against $93,925,101 for 1901. New York State contributed $40,450,094
of such municipal bonds, against $36,062,871 in 1901,
of which $29,416,467 were supplied by New York City
(including the $9,255,467 taken by the sinking fund),
against $29,143,125 supplied by this city in 1901,
without including the sinking fund takings. Massachusetts contributed $12,814,737, against $4,191,950,
Boston having put out $6,194,000 of bonds in 1902
against only saaall amounts in 1901. Pennsylvania contributed $9,536. 606,against $11,822,980, Pnlladelphia's
Odlo
share being $6,400,000, against $9,000,000.
contributed $18,819,778, against $7,686,786, Cincinnati's portion this year being $8,848,000, against
and Cleveland's portion $3,8*5,000
$1,570,000,
against $1,277,000.
Thus these four States In the
aggregate furnished $81,631,215 of the whole $117,150,302 municipal bonds, as against $59,664, 5S7

references to the laws authorizing each of the issues of bonds outstanding to-day, and likewise, so far as we deem it needful,
citations from those laws.
All our figures, except when otherwise noted, represent the status at the close of business June 30 or the beginning of
business on July 1 of each fiscal year. To conform to that feature and yet furnish information through which any reader
ean always have the data for a correct exhibit of the debt situation at any past or future day, and make an accurate comparison with previous years, we present. First, the details as they stood at the close of the last fiscal year ending June 30,
1903; Second, the changes in those details since June 30, 1902, down to April 1, 1903; Third, the items of interest-bearing
debt, &c., at the beginning of each fiscal year since July 1, 1877; Fourth, we publish in the Chronicle every month usually
the first or second Saturday the full detailed Government statement of the debt as reported by the Treasurer on the last
day of the previous month some months lack of space forces us to delay the publication to a later week.
With these data at his command, it would seem as if any inquirer could satisfy himself fully with reference to every
point which might become of importance for him to know respecting the United States debt.

" LOAN OF 1908-1 918."— (Column 7.) The bonds included under this head are an issue of $200,000,000 3 per cents. They were
authorized by Act of June 13, 1898, and are known as the " War loan." The law provided that in allotting said bonds the individual subscriptions of the lowest amount must be first allotted. On the day the Act was signed a Treasury circular was issued (see circular in Chronicle of
June 18, 1898, page 1168,) inviting subscriptions for 32 days, from June 13 to July 14, for the amount of bonds stated, in both coupon and registered form, coupons in denominatfons of $20, $100, $500 and $1,000, and registered in denominations of same amounts, and also In $5,000 and

(Column 3).— Act of February 26, 1879, authorized the Secretary of the Treasury to issue in exchange
of the United States certificates of deposit of the denomination of ten dollars, bearing interest at the rate of 4 per cent, and
convertible at any time, with accrued interest, into the 4 per cent bonds described in the Refunding act the money so received to be applied
only to the payment of the bonds bearing Interest at a rate not less than 5 per cent. On March 12, 1879, the issue of these certificates and their
exchange into 4 per cent bonds were authorized; the certificates were to draw 4 per cent interest from April 1, 1879, and were convert! DiC in
Bums of $50 or its multiples. The amount issued at the close of the fiscal year (June 30, 1879), was $39,308,110, but they had been converted
80 rapidly that there were outstanding at that date only $12,848,210. On October 31, 1879, the entire authorization "had been reached, the
maximum amount of the issue being $40,012,750. Of these there were still outstanding on April 1, 1903, a total of $30,810.
"
1925."— (Column 5.) Sales of bonds included under this designation were eflfeoted (1) in February, 1895, to the amount of
$62,315,400 and (2) in February, 1896, to the amount of $100,000,000. In a message to Congress under date of February 8, 1895 (published in
the Chronicle February 9, 1895, page 244), President Cleveland stated in substance that in pursuance of Section 3700 of the Revised Statues
the details of an arrangement have this day been concluded whereby bonds authorized under the act of July 14, 1875, payable in coin at the
pleasure of the United States after the first day of Feb., 1925, with interest at the rate of 4 per cent per annum, to the amount of $62,315,400,
are to be issued for the purchase of gold coin amounting to a sum slightly in excess of $65,000,000, to be delivered to the Treasury of the United
States, which sum added to the gold now held in our reserve will so restore such reserve as to make it amount to something more than $100,000,000. Such a premium is to be allowed to the Government upon the bonds as to fix the rate of interest upon the amount of gold realized at
3^p.c. per annum. At least one-half of thegoldto be obtained is to be supplied from abroad. Section 3700 of the Revised Statutes is as follows
"Sec. 3700. The Secretary of the Treasury may purchase coin with any of the bonds or notes of the United States authorized by law at suoli
rates and upon such terms as he may deem most advantageous to the public interest."
For a construction of the "Refunding Act of 1870" and of the " Resumption Act of 1875," see Chronicle, February 18, 1893, page 205.
The issue in February, 1896, was an ordinary offering, open to all bidders, of $100,000,000 of the same bonds as the foregoing— same in
date, same in time of maturity, sam e in rate of interest and time of interest payments. Consequently both issues are called the "Loan of 1925,"

In April, 1895, we gave a table showing the debt of the United States on the first day of July, 1856, and every subsequent
have determined on this occasion to begin our statement with
year. It is not necessary to repeat all those figures.
1877, as that year antedates all of the issues now outstanding, and yet carries the record sufficiently far back to show the
nature and extent of the Government securities when the refunding operations of that period began. It has the advantage,
too, of giving separate and distinct each issue of bonds now outstanding. The statement is subjoined.

which the total Is of that date, and is exclusive of Interest charge on Paciflo Railway bonds.
Note 2.— The figures for July 1, 1879, were made up assuming pending funding operations to have been completed.
* NOTK 3.— Under the Act of March 14 1900 the Treasury Department has kept the gold Reserve Fund of $150,000,000 as a separate item,
and not Included it in the available cash balance. In the foregoing statement, however, we have continued to include the item so as not to
embarrass comparison with previous years.
Pacific Railroad Debt, One other class of bonded debt must be referred to which has never been included in the
total of Government debt we mean the Pacific Railroad subsidy debt. To show the situation of this indebtedness we
have to make compilations of our own, as the Treasury form comes short of indicating the existing situation. In the
following we bring together the details respecting the issues to the Pacific Railroads, giving likewise in the statement the
debt already paid and the balance due to the Government.

CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION.—The Constitutional Convention, held in l'd02, submitted several ameodments to the Constitution, of which four were approved at the election on March 10, 1903.
One of these refers to franchise and inheritance taxation and another

to trust regulation.
DEBT LIMITATION.—There is no restriction in the Constitution
of New Hampshire upon the debt-making power of the people through
the " General Court," except the following, which is the last clause of
Article 5 of Part Second of that Instrument.
Provided, That the General Court shall not authorize any town to
loan or give its money or credit directly or indirectly for the benefit of
any corporation having for its object a dividend of profits or in any
way aid the same by taking its stocks or bonds.
The above is an amendment to the Constitution, which was ratified in
1877. The amendment would appear to be intended as a complete
estoppel to municipal loaning of money or credit to railroad and indusIt is to be noticed, however, that by its terms the
trial corporations.
restriction does not specifically mention "cities," the words being
" any town."
In addition to the foregoing is the " Municipal Bond Act of 1895."

chapter.
It wLU be noticed that this section contains a limit to the power
granted of making subscriptions in aid of railroads—to wit That the
subscriptions shall not exceed eight times " the grand Ust." To evolve
the " grand list" in Vermont, the authorities first prepare a schedule of
all the property, real and personal, of each individual, with valuations
entered at their real value in money, deducting debts owing after this
is done " the grand list " is made up by taking one per cent of that
amount, according to Section 360, Chapter 26, of the Revised Statutes
of 1894, which is as follows: "All real and personal estate shall,
" except as otherwise provided, be set in the list at one per cent of its
"value in money on the first day of April of the year of its appraisal.'
Following Section 3102, above cited, which authorizes subscriptions
In aid of railroads, are other sections describing the method in which
these subscriptions must be made, by caUlng a town meeting, voting,
&o., &c. Then follows Section 3108, authorizing the issue of bonds.
Section 3108. Such town may issue bonds, with coupons payable
semi-annually, to aid such road.
The only other general authority granted for the issue of bonds by
municipal corporations in Vermont is that given for refunding outstanding bonds and notes, and for road-making apparatus. The Sections which grant these powers are Sections 3111 to 3120, inclusi^re,
(Chapter 141 of the Revised Statutes of 1894. Section 311 1 is as follows:
Section 3111. A town which has outstanding and unpaid orders,
notes, bonds or coupons lawfully issued, may issue other negotiable
notes or bonds to pay or retire the same.
Sections 3112 to 3115, Inclusive, give the method of issuing suoh
bonds.
By Section 3116 municipal corporations other than towns have the
same refunding powers granted them which are conferred upon towns
by the two sections last above cited.
Sac no V 3118. A town, city or Imorporated village may issue bonds
to'an amount not exceeding three times icsgrand list, for the purpose of
purchasing road-making apparatus and for building permanent highways within the tha limits of such town, city or village.
Sections 3119 and 3120 proviles for the method of issuing such bonds
The only other section which we need quote is Section 3083 of
CHiapter 139, which names the objects for which towns may vote money.
If money is appropriated for any other object, the Charter or a special
statute must be looked to for the authority.
Section 3083.—Towns may vote such sums of money as they deem
necessary for the support of the poor, for laying out and repairing
highways, for the prosecution and defense of the common rights and
interests of the inhabitants, and for other necessary Incidental town
expenses.

LIMITATIONS.—There appears to be nothing in the Constitution or in the Statutes of Vermont providing a general limit to the
debt-making power of municipalities. Whatever in each case the Legislature authorizes, the city, town, county or other civil division can
Issue. Of course the purpose of the improvement must be of a pubUo
character. Railroad subscriptions by towns are authorized by Section
3102, chapter 141 of the Revised Statutes of 1894, the section being as

erence to investments is Section 4096, which treats of real estate
mortgages. It authorizes the investment of 70 p.c. of the assets in suoh
mortgages, one-sixth at least of which " shall be upon real estate In this
State "—that is Vermont. A jJroviso adds that only 50 per cent of the
assetsmay be invested in mortgages on realestato outside of Vermont.
Sections 4097 and 4098 relate only to obtaining and paying for insurance. Section 1099 is as follows, and has reference to investment
on personal security.
Section 4099—No loans or investments on personal security shall be
made except upon at least two approved names, not less than two of
whom reside in this State or within fifty inUes of the institution making
such Investment, and such personal loans or investments shall not be
for a longer time than one year; and not more than one-third of the
assets of a savings bank, savings Institution or trust company shall be
Invested in personal securities.
Section 4100 only covers a single point; that is to say It restricts to
five per cent of the deposits the amount which a savings bank may
Invest in the lot and building for the transaction of Its business, and
adds that a revenue may be derived from portions of the building not

required for the bank's use. The next section (Section 4101) covers
the most important of the provisions relating to investments that are
contained in the law. We give the section in full below. The separation
into paragraphs and the flgures in parenthesis which number and begin
the paragraphs are our own.
Section -ll 01— With the foregoing exceptions, the moneys deposited
in Savings Banks, Sa^nngs Institutions and Trust Companies, and
the income therefrom, shall be invested only as follows
(1.) In the public funds of the United States, or public funds for the
payment of principal and interest of which the faith of the United States

(2.) In the bonds or notes of the counties, cities, towns, villages and
school districts of the New England States, New York, Pennsylvania,

DEBT LIMITATIONS.—There seems to be no provision in the
stitution of Massachusetts limiting the
create State indebtedness, or limiting its
Con-
power of the Legislature to
power to authorize municipal
indebtedness. Statutes general and special have, however, been passed
on this subject with respect to Cities and Towns. All of these are
found Incorporated in Chapter 27 of the Revised Statutes, a new
edition of which embodying all the laws passed down to the Ist of
January, 1902, has just been issued. The important sections of this
chapter are cited below
Section 1— Cities and towns shall not incur debts, except in the
manner of voting and within the limitations as to amount and time
of payment prescribed in t lis chapter.
Section 2— The indebtedness of a city or town under the provisions
of this chapter not inconsistent herewith shall be its net indebtedness*
as defined in clause twelve of section live of chapter eight; but debts
created in aid of railroad corporations, except as herein otherwise
provided, and water scrip, issued by a town under special statutes for
the Indebtedness of a tire distiict, and all other debts excei>ted by
general or special statutes shall be excluded.

the year preceding said assessment.
Section 4— A town shall not become indebted in an amount exceed-
ing three per cent on the last pref-eding valuation, for the assessment
of taxes, of the taxable property tlierein.
Section 5— A city or town wnioh estaolishes, purchases, reconstructs,
extends or enlarges a gas or electric lighting plant within its limits
may incur debt outside the debt limit pre^0I ibed in this chapter in

date of their incurrence, and shall not be reckoned in determining the

hundred and eleven. Such loans shall not be reckoned in determining
the authorized limit of indebtedness, and when ony money po paid is

rate as it deems proper, and may sell said bonds, notes or scrip, not
less th.in par, at public or private tale or may use the same in pay
ment of such debts.

and contribute thereto an amouiit sufficient with its accumulations to
extinguish the debt at maturity; and it payable at a period not exceeding ten years, the city or town shall raise by taxation annually
not less than eight per cent of the principal thereof, and shall set it
apait for a sinking lund until an amount has I'cen raised sufficient
with its accumulations to extinguish the debt at maturity; and shall.
In the J ear before the maturity of the debt, raise by taxation, any balance necessary for its extinguishment.
Section 13—a city or town, instead of establishing a sinking fund,
may vote to provide for the payment of any debt by such annual
proportionate payments as will extinguish the same at maturity, and
thereupon such annual proportion shall, without further vote, be
assessed under the provit-ions of section tliirty-seven of chapter
twelve until such debt is extinguished.
Sections 14 to 1v>. inclusive, and sections 2?, 24 and 2.5 relate to
the election and duties of the commissioners of the tinking fund and
various other matters we cannot enter n\ on here.
Section '21— A city which at a meeting f its voters held for that
purpose has accepted, by a vote of two-thirds of the legal voters present and voting thereon, any Act to supply said city with water may,
by a yea and nay vote of the majority of the members of each branch

to the extent authorized by such Act, in the iiianner provided in, and
subject to the provisions of, the preceding sections.

Street, Etc., Bonds.— (Con.)
eighty one of the Acts of the year eighteen hundred and eighty-seven
are hereby repealed.
The new law, in repealing Chapter 178 of the Laws of 1885, repealed
a special Act limiting the indebtedness of the City of Boston to 2 per
cent of the assessed valuation, etc etc. Boston consequently is now
subject to Section 2, Chapter 312, Laws of 1885 (9eo. 3, Chap. 27 of the
1902 edition Revised Statutes), which places the debt limitation at 212
percentof the average asseseors'valuationsofthetaxable property for
the preceding three years.
Reference to this section of the Revised
Statutes will be found in debt Limitations for State of Masschusetts.
The foregoing limitation is of course exclusive of debts created for
water supply, and further exceptions have been made from year to
year by different legislatures, authorizing bonds outside of the debt
limit for various purposes, especially enumerated.
It is proper to state that under Chapter 93, Acts of 1891, the city is
authorized to anticipate its authority to borrow money within its debt
Limit for any current municipal year.

STATE AND MUNICIPAL INDEBTEDNESS LIMITATIONS.Under Section 13. Article IV., of the State Constitution, the General
Assembly has no power to incur State debt to an amount exceeding
$50,000 without the consent of the people, except in time of war or
©f insurrection or invasion
In no case is the Assembly to pledge the
faith of the State for the payment of obligations of others without the
m
approval of the people. In reference to city debts, there is nothing
the Constitution of Rhode Island limiting the amount of such obligations.
The following, however, are two sections taken from Title 7, Chapter
36 (page 157) of the Revised Statutes of the State of 1896. Since 1878
these provisions have been in force, aud consequently 3 per cent of the
taxable property has been the limit of the power of each town (which
Includes city) to create debt.
Section 20. " The outstanding notes, bonds and contracts of towns
shall be paid and be f ultilled according to the tenor thereof, and all
public worKs now authorized to be prosecuted shaU be prosecuted, and
aU indebtedness now authorized to be incurred on account thereof may
be incurred according to the tenor of the authority therefor.
Section 21. No town shall, loUhont special stalutoru authority
therefor, mcwc any debt in excess of three per centum of the taxable
property of such town, including the Indebtedness of such town on
the tenth dtiy of April, one thousand eight hundred seventy-eight, but
the giving of a new note or bond, for a pre-existing debt, or for
money borrowed and applied to the payment of such pre-existing debt.
Is excepted from the provisions of this section, and the amount of any
sinking fund shall be deducted in computing such indebtedness."
SAVINGS BANK INVESTMENTS AND RESTRICTIONS.-In
the Revised Statutes of Rhode Island (which were revised in 1896)Sections 54, 55, 56, etc., of Chapter 178, Title 19 (on page 548), will be
found the provisions of law with reference to Savings Bank Investments. Section 54, which recites in detail the stocks, bonds, etc., these
Institutions are allowed to put their money in is as follows
Section 54. Institutions for savings shall invest their receipts—
(1) In public stocks or bonds of any State or of the United States,
(2) Or in any bank stock, or in notes or bonds of any town or city,
(3) Or in notes of any school district or Hre district in any New Eng-
land State,
(4)
Or
in such corporate stocks or
bonds as they
may deem
safe and
secure.
Or they may discount notes, bonds or drafts of individuals or corporations, with two other responsible endorsers, sureties or guarantors,
(6) Or the notes, bonds ordratis of individuals or corporations secured
by the public notes, stocks or bonds of any State of the United States,
or of any town or city or of any school district or fire district in any
New England State, or by the stock or bonds of any corporation which
may be deemed to be safe, or by mortgage on real estate.
Concerning Sections 55 and 56, the first appears to give savings
Institutions quite extensive powers as to making and keeping deposits
in commercial banks. When so kept, however, they are to be kept
"payable on demand whether drawing interest or not." The two
(5)
sections are subjoined.
Section 55.—No such Institution shall have an amount exceeding
one-half of Its receipts invested in notes, bonds or drafts of individuals
or corporations, unless secured by some public notes, bonds or stocks as
aforesaid, or by mortgage on real estate; but the preceding section shall
not be so construed as to forbid anj' such institution from placing and
holding on deposit in any bank such reasonable amount of their receipts as is customary and they may deem proper, payable on demand,
whether drawing interest or not.
Section 56.—No money shall be loaned by any Institution for savings to any trustee, director or other officer of such institution.
For the other provisions of the law as they now are we would refer
our readers to the Revised Statutes of 1896.

LIMITATION.—The Constitution of Connecticut contains but
a single provision restricting the debt-making power. The provision is
Article 25, adopted as an amendment in 1877, and is as follows
No County, City, Town, Borough or other Municipality, shall ever
subscribe to the capital stock of any railroad corporation, or become the
purchaser of the bonds, or make donation to, or loan its credit in aid of,
any such corporation but nothing herein contained shall affect the
validity of any bouds or debts incurred under exi.sting laws, nor be construedto prohibit the General Assembly from authorizing any Town
or City to protect by additional appropiations of money of credit any
railroad debt contracted prior to the adoption of this amendment.
The foregoing is explicit and comprehensive, covering every municipality. There are no general restrictions In the Revised Statutes
whatever restrictions have been made from time to time are contained

to towns, we notice that there is a general law granting them unlimited power to issue bonds. According to section 140, chapter 23 of
the Revised Statutes, " when any town shall have made appropriations
" or incurred debts, or sliall hereafter make appropriations or incur
" debts exceeding ten thousand dollars, it may issue bonds, either regis" tered or with coupons attached, or other obligations, payable at such
" times and at such annual rate of interest not exceeding 6 per cent,
" payable annually or semi-annually, as it shall determine," &c. Cities
have had no such general authority conferred upon them.
Exemption from Taxation nas been accorded by general statute to
certain bonds issued by cities and towns to aid in the construction of
railroads; and this exemption has been extended to new bonds issued
for the purpose of redeeming or providing a fund to redeem the railroad
aid bonds above referred to. This exemption is found in Section 3,820,
Chapter 241 of the Revised Statutes (last clause of Section), and the
bonds there named are those " issued by any town or city in aid of the
" construction of the railroads of the Connecticut Western Railroad
" Company, the New Haven Middletown & WiUimantic Railroad Com" pany, the Shepaug Valley Railroad Company, the Connecticut Valley
" Railroad Co.. the Connecticut Central Railroad Company, or either of
the State are
"them." All railroads which are in whole or in part
taxed by the State under Section 3920, Chapter 244 of the Revised
Statutes, 80 that the tax on these bonds is paid by the railroads.
Exemption from tax of new bonds issued to redeem or to provide a fund
to redeem the railroad aid bonds, or to redeem or to provide a fund to
redeem any reissue of the same, is conferred fully by an act approved
June 19, 1889, and found in the "Public Acts" for that year.

SAVINGS BANKS INVESTMENTS-PRIVILEGES AND RESTRICTIONS.— -A-t the session in 1899 material changes were made In

Besides the ordinary safeguards which are in all savings bank laws,
there is one of no little importance that ought to aid materially in preventing incautious loans. We refer to the provision below.

When any loan or investment is made by any savings bank, the
names of the directors or trustees consenting thereto shall be entered

THE
STATE OF COIS^NECTICUT.
Note. —For debts of minor civil divisions not found] amo7ig the statements given below, see "Additional Statements" at the end of' this State.
The relation which the towns, cities and boroughs of this State bear
to one another is peculiar, and requires a word of explanation. The
State is divided into eight counties, and these counties are made up of
towns, numbering in the aggregate 168. The towns are the civil unit,
and on the assessed valuation (which is called the " Grand List of each
town ") is levied the tax for State purposes as weU as the tax for town
expenditures. Within the town is often situated a city or a borough, or
both, all of which may at the same time have bonds outstanding. There
are ten cities, each with one exception bearing the same name as the
town in which it lies. Of late several towns and cities whose limits
were about identical have been consolidated and the outstanding
bonds of both town and city are reported together without distinction.
This Is the case with the city and town of Hartford, which previous to
April, 1896, reported their debts separately. The city and town of
New London have been consolidated and also Bridgeport city and
town. On December 7, 1897, city,' town and school district of New
Haven were likewise consolidated.
The borough stands in about the same relation to the town as does
the city. The grand list as determined for the town is used by both the
city and the borough in levying taxes, the city, for instance, putting a
its own on its share of the total grand list of the town. This tax
additional to the town tax. In some instances the schools are in the
charge of school districts, which also are empowered to issue bonds
and to levy a tax, so that to cover the total tax paid by a city it Is

DEBT LIMITATION— State.— The new Constitution has in some
measure modilied the provisions of the fundamental law restricting the
power of the Legislature over the issue of debt, &o. These provisions
are found in Article 7. "We give the sections of that article (Article 7)
below which have reference to the subject.
State credit 7iot to be given.— Sectio'H 1. The credit of the State shall
not in any manner be given or loaned to or in aid of any individual,
association or corporation.
—
Stale debts, power to contract. Sec. 2. The State may, to meet casual
deficits or failures in revenues, or for expenses not provided for, con-
tract debts; but such debts, direct or contingent, singly or in the aggregate, shall not at any time exceed one million of doll.ars; and the
moneys arising from the loans creating such debts shall be applied to
the purpose for which they were obtained, or to repay the debt so contracted, and to no other purpose whatever.
Slate debts to repel invasions.— Sec. 3. In addition to the above limited
power to contract debts, the State may contract debts to repel invasion,
suppress insurrection, or defend the St^te in war; but the money arising from the contracting of such debts shall be applied to the piu-pose
for which it was raised, or to repay such debts, and to no other piu-pose
whatever.
Limitation of legislative power to create debts. Sec. 4. Except the
debts specified in sections two and three of this article, no debts shall
be hereafter contracted by or on behalf of this State, unless such debt
shall be authorized by a law, for some single work or object, to be distinctly specified therein and such law shall impose and provide for
the collection of a direct annual tax to pay, and suflScient to pay, the
interest on such debt as it falls due, and also to pay and discharge the
principal of such debt within eighteen years from the time of the contracting thereof. No such law shall take effect until it shall, at a general election, have been submitted to the people, and have received a
majority of all the votes cast for and against it at such election. On the
final passage of such bill in either house of the Legislature, the question
shall be taken by ayes and noes, to be duly entered on the journals
thereof, and shall be: "Shall this bill pass, and ought the same
of
the
people?"
The Legislature
to
receive the sanction
may at any time, after the approval of such law by the
people,
if
no debt shall have been contracted in pursuance thereof, repeal the same; and may at any time, by law,
forbid the contracting of any further debt or liability under such law
but the tax imposed by such act, in proportion to the debt and liability
which may have been contracted, in pursuance of such law, shall
remain in force and be irrepealable, and be annually collected, vmtil
the proceeds thereof shall have made the provision hereinbefore
specified to pay and discharge the interest and principal of suoh debt
and liability. The money arising from any loan or stock creating suoh
debt or liability, shall be applied to the work or object specified in the
act authorizing such debt or liability, or for the repayment of suoh
debt or liability and for no other purpose whatever. No such
law shall be submitted to be voted on, within three months after
its passage, or at any general election when any other law, or any
bill, or any amendment to the Constitution, shall be submitted to
be voted for or against.
Sinking Fund, how kept and invested. Sec. 5. The sinking funds
provided for the payment of interest and the extinguisliment of the
principal of the debts of the State shall be separately kept and safely
invested, and neither of them shall be appropriated or used in any manner other than for the specific purpose for which it shall have beea
provided.

DEBT LIMITATION.— Cities,
Counties.
Towns and Villages.—
Constitution of New York State puts a general and
uniform limit to the power of all counties and cities of the State to contract and put out their obligations, leaN-ing to the Legislature to fix the
debt-making power of villages and towns only. These provisions are
found in Article 8, Section 10. We give that section in full. The
separation into paragraplis and the figures in parenthesis which number and begin the paragraphs are oui* own, we having mserted them so
that those who need to refer to or use any particular portion can the more
readily find the part desired. With that exception we give Section 10
of Article 8 as it reads, preserving oven the punctuation.
(1) No county, city, town or village shall hereafter give any money
or property, or loan its money or credit to or in aid or any individual,
association or corporation, or become directly or indirectly the owaer
nor shall any
of stock in, or bonds of, any association or corporation
such county, city, town or \'illage bo allowed to incur any indebtedness
excei)t for county, oity, town or village purposes. This section shall
not prevent such county, city, town or village from making such provision for the aid or support of its poor as may be authorized by law.
(2) No county or city shall be allowed to become indebted for any
purjiose or in any manner to an amount which. Including existing
indebtedness, shall exceed ten per centum of the asses.sed valuation of
the real estate of such county or city subject to taxation, as it appeared
by the assessment rolls of said county or city on the last assessment for

all indebtedness in excess of such limitation, except such as may now
exist, shall be absolutely void, except as herein otherwise provided.

(3) No countv or city whose present indebtedness exceeds ten
centum of the assessed valuation of its real estate subject to taxation,

;
indebtedness shall be reduced within such limit.
certif(4) This section shall not be construed to prevent the Issuing of

collection of taxes for amounts actually contained, or to be contained
in the taxes for the year when such certificates or revenue bonds are
issued and pavable out of such taxes.

(5) Nor shall this section be construed to prevent the
to provide for the supplv of water but the term of the bonds issued to
provide the supply of water sliall not exceed twenty years, and a sinktag fund shall be created on the issuing of the said bonds for their redeiuption, by raising annually a sum which will produce an amount
equal to the sum of the principal and interest of said bonds at their
maturity.
,
issued
an(6) All certificates of indebtedness or revenue bonds
ticipation of the collection of taxes, which are not retired within five
years after their diite of issue, and bonds issued to provide for the supply
of water, and any debt hereafter incurred by any portion or part of a
city, if there shall be any such debt, shall be included in ascertaining
the power of the city to become otherwise indebted.
(7) Whenever hereafter the boundaries of any city shall become the
same as those of a county, the power of the county to become indebted
shall cease, but the debt of the county at that time existing shall not be
tacluded as part of the city debt. [At the November 1899 election
an amendment to the Constitution was adopted changing this paragraph to read as follows: Whenever the boundaries of any city are
the same ap those of a county, or when any city shall include within
its boundaries more than one county, the power of an3- county wholly
included within such city to become indebted shall cease, but the debt
of the county heretofore existing shall not, for the purposes of this
section, be reckoned as a part of the city debt.]
(8) The amount hereafter to be raised by tax for county or city purposes, in any county containing a city of over one hundi-ed thousand
inhabitants, or any such city of this State, in addition to providing tor
the principal and interest of existing debt, shall not in the aggregate
exceed in any one year two per centum of the assessed valuation of the
real and personal estate of such county or city, to be ascertained as
prescribed in this section in respect to county or city debt.
In May 1886 the New York Court of Appeals decided at the end of a
litigation begun in July 1885 thai the sint:ing fund was not a part ot
the city debt within the" meaning of the above provision of the Constitution limiting the creation of debt to 10 per cent of the assessed valuation of the real estate.
Towns and Villages are not limited in their debt-making power by the
Constitution. Those municipalities will be governed by general or
;
m
.
special statutes.
The 1895 Lei:islature passed an act "for the protection of bona flde
purchasers and holders of coupon bonds and of municipal corporations
against niLsfeasance, malfeasance or neglitrence of juiblic officers."
The full text of this law was published in the Chronicle of June 8,
1895. V. 60, p. 1023.
TAXATION.—In the Tax Law as given in
Birdseye's Revised Statutes for 1901 (Section 4, Sub-division 6,) there
is ageneial provision exempting from taxation "Bonds of this State
to be hereafter issued by the Comptroller to carry out the provisions
of chapter 'eventy-nine of the laws of eighteen hundred and ninetyfive" txhe Canal Law] and "bonds of a municipal corporation heretofore issued for the purpose of paying up or retiring the bonded
indebtedness of such corporation." It will be seen that the reference
is to municipal bonds heretofore issued, &c. In section 7, however, of
the "general municiral law there is also atax-exempting clause, but
one much broader In its scope, as it seems to apply to the funding of
any bonds heretofore or hereafter put [out.
In the case of New York City the existing provision of law govern
Ing the matter will be found in the revised City Charter which went
Into eft'ect Jan. 1, 1902. ThLs provides that "such corporate stock and
all assessment bonds and revenue bonds, as well as all bonds hereafter
to be issued by the City of New York by virtue of this Act or of any
other Act, whether general or special, shall be fr- e and exempt from
all taxation, except for State purposes— Section 169, Title 2.
It remains to add that under special laws some New York City bonds
are exempt from alt taxes, including those for State purposes. Such
is the case as reeards the public-library bonds (Bryant Park) authorized by Chapter 627, Laws of 1900.
EXEMPTION FROM
SAVINGS BANK INVESTMENTS-POWERS AND RESTRICTIONS.— In 1898 the New Y'ork Legislature passed an amendment to
paragraph 6, Sec. 116, of the Savings Bank law of 1892. The amendment extended investments of savings banks to first mortgage railroad
bonds the principal part of whose railroad is located within this State,
and m 1899 the field of railroad investments was still further enlarged.
In 1900 the Chicago & Alton EU. was added to the list and other
changes made in paragraph 6. In 1902 paragraph 6 was again
amended by adding the bonds of certainother railroad corporations, as
was also paragraph 5 by adding the city of Los Angeles, Cal. Further
amendments are proposed at the present (1903) session of the Legislature. One of these adds the Chicago St. Paul Minneapolis & Omaha
Railway bonds to the list of legal investments, while another amends
subdivision 4 so as to permit investments in "interest-bearing obligations" of towns and villages in addition to cities and counties. Neither
of these measures had become a law at the time of gotag to press.
We give section 116 below as it stands after these various amendments. The changes and additions made by the 1902 enactments we
Indicate by means of brackets I ].

portion of the town lying "westerly of a straight line drawn from the
southeasterly point of the town of Flushing through the middle of the
channel between Rockaway Beach and Shelter Island, in the county
of Queens,* to the Atlantic Ocean," became part of New York City,

the Legislature in April, 1899, and the new boundary is that portion
of the old town of Hempstead -'bounded on the east and north by
the east and north bounds of the former village of Far Rockaway,
and on the east by a line drawn due north from the northwest corner
of said village to the south line of the town of Jamaica, as itexisted on

County seat is Long Island City. A good part of the old County of
Queens is now included in the Greater New York, and a law changing
tne name of that portion of the old county outside of Greater New
York to Nassau County went Into effect January 1, 1899. The
amount of the outstanding bonds of this county which will be chargeable to the city of New York has been finally determined by the
Supreme Court (V. 71,p. 875.) Under this decision the city of New
York is liable for $3,796,032 11 of the old debt of Queens County as
it stood at the date of division, and the remaining $1,011,967 89
becomes an obli.gation of Nassau County. Instead of apportioning
certain bonds to New York City and to Nassau County, the debt and
interest will not be divided, but will be paid by New York City,
Nassau County payins over its proportion as it becomes due. New
York City pays -78952414973 of the principal and interest as it
becomes due, and Nassau County -21047585027.
The statement below shows the obligations of the old County of
Queens which remained outstanding on Jan. l 1903.

HISTORY OF DEBT.—New Jersey has always been a conservative
State; there are consequently no facts out of which to construct a history of debt issues. In a report made in 1838 the tlnancial officer of
the State affirmed that New Jersey had put out no obligations of any
kind or loaned its credit to any company. The Con.stitution of 1844
forbade the creating of a State debt exceeding one hundred thousand dollars except for purposes of war, &c., as will more fully appear in the
item below with respect to "debt limitation." This exception, under
which it was allowable to exceed the hundred-thousand-dollar* limit
became operative on the occasion of the breaking out of our Civil War.
Quite a debt was created at that period. The last of these war bonds
were retired on Jan. 1, 1902.
DEBT.— With the exception of $116,000 certificates issued
to the Commissioners of the Agricultural CoHe.ge under Act approved
June 13, 1895, the State is now clear from debt, and has been since
Jan. 1, 1902. At previous dates the debt was

value $188,700). of the joint stock of the Delaware & Raritan Canal
and Camden <fe Amboy Railroad and Transportation companies. The
State School Fund on Nov. 1, 1902, held seoarities to the amount of
$3,839,692 21.

and In 1902 $223,461,784. No general tax is imposed in New Jersey,
the State deriving its revenue from other sources.
DEBT LI MITATIONS.—1'lie provisions of law limiting and regulating the debt-making power in New Jersey will be better understood
and the infoi-mation will be made more serviceable to the investor if
arranged in accordance with the civil divisions to which the provisions
apply.
(1) THE STATE is restricted as to its debt-making power by the
State Constitution. In Article IV, Section VI, paragraphs 3 and 4, the
whole subject is disposed of. The third para,graph forbids a loan of the
State's credit, and the fourth paragraph forbids the creation of debt.
These provisions are as follows.
3. The credit of the State shall not be directly or indirectly loaned in
any
4.
case.
The Legislature
shall not in
any manner create any debt or debts,
liability or liabilities of the State, which shall singly or in the aggregate
with any previous debts or liabilities at any time exceed one hundred
thousand dollars, except for purposes of war, or to repel invasion, or to
suppress insurrection, unless the same shall be authorized by a law for
some single object of work, to be distinctly specified therein; which
law shall provide the ways and means, exclusive of loans, to pay the
Interest of such debt or liability .is it falls due, and also to pay and
discharge the principal of such debt or liability within thirts'-five years
from the time of the contracting thereof, and shall be irrepealable until
such debt or liability and the interest thereon are fully paid and discharged and no such law shall take effect until it shall, at a general
election, have been submitted to the people, and have received the
sanction of a majority of all the votes cast for and against it at such
election and all money to be raised by the authority of such law shall
be applied only to the specific oliject stated tlierein, and to the payment
of the debt thereby created. This section shall not bo construed to refer to any money that lias been, or may be, deposited with this State by
the Government of the United States.
According to tlie foregoing (4th paragraph), the power of the State for
making debt is limited to $100,000, except (1) for purposes of war etc.,
and (2) when the authorization is for some single object of work specified therein, etc. In the latter case the mode of procedure is, as will
be seen, given in the same parasrrapli of the Constitution.
;
;
CITIES, OOUNTIES, TOWNS, Etc., are also restricted in the
of debt by Article I, paragraphs 19 and 20, of
the Constitution. M'o give the paragraph in full.
19. No county, city, borough, town, township or village shall
hereafter give any money or propertj', or loan its money or credit,
to or in aid of any individual, association or corporation, or become
security for or be directly or indirectly the owner of any stock or
bonds of any association or corporation.
20. No don.ation of laud or appropriation of money shall be made
by the State or any municipal corporation to or for the use of
any society, association or corporation wluitever.
It wiU be noted that the above prohibition relates to the giving ol
money, property or credit of cities, &c., to individuals, associations, or
corporations, &c., and that the prohibition is absolute, forbidding the
doing of such acts in any form, shape or mannei". There is one othei
restriction of tlie State Constitution, and that is found in Article IV.

L
WEW JEpSET— CITIES
April, 1903.
Section VII., parasraph 11, which forbids the Legislature passing any
specianaws "regulating the internal affairs of loicns and counties";
In this and in all other cases in which according to the jud.gment of
the Legislatm-e general laws are feasible, the Constitution states that
general laws must be provided.
In compliance with this last provision the Legislature has passea
many general laws covering bonded indebtedness of cities, towns, etc.
They are so numerous they cannot be cited here. We would refer the
reader to the Revised Statutes of New .Tersey published in 1896 under
the heading "Municipal Bonds" pages 693 to 716 both inclusive; and
also to the same heading ("Municipal Bonds") pages 2220, etc.
TAX EXEMPTION.—The State of New Jersey passed in 1893
a general statute which exempts from taxation the bonds, securities and other evidences of indebtedness of municipal corporations the provision covers not only the bonds, etc., to be hereafter
issued, but those as well that have been heretofore issued. It is a
sweeping statute, and one which is of decided interest to the holders of
the municipal securities of the State. The full text of it may be found
in the State and Citv Supplement for October, 1898, page 58.

SAVINGS BANKS' INVESTMENTS-POWERS AND RESTRICTIONS.—The last general savings bank law of New Jersey was
passed in 1876. Since then the legislative tendency in the matter *!
Investments has been in the direction of allowing the management ol
these institutions a wider choice and a larger discretion. In 1878 the
limits of the 1876 law were broadened in several particulars by anew
act of two sections, the first taking the place of section 26 of the act o
1876. In 1886 still another law was passed in place of the first section
of the law of 1878. Again in 1889 an act was passed extending materially the provisions of section two of the law of 1878, which cov.
ered the same subject matter contained in section 29 of the original law
of 1876, and thereby section 26 of the law of 1876 was superseded by
the law of 1886, and section 29 was superseded by the law of 1889. In
1901 Section two was further amended in the way specified below. In
1896 a supplement approved March 30, 1896 (Chapter 139, laws of
1896) to the law of 1876, making school district bonds an authorized
investment, went into effect. In 1897 an act was passed (approves
AprU 9) authorizing investments in bonds issued by commissioners
appointed by the Supreme Court of the State. In 1899 a further
supplement extending the permissible line of municipal investments
80 as to include the bonds of townships and boroughs was approved
March 24. An attempt to add such securities to the list was made in
1898, but the measure then failed to receive the approval of the Governor. The 1899 law Is as follows
Section 1. it shall be lawful for any savings bank in this State to
invest its funds in the bonds of any city, county, town or township of
tbis State issued pursuant to the authority of any law of this State, or
in the bonds of any borough or village or school district of this State
issued pursuant to the authority of any law of this State; provided,
such borough, village or school district shall not, within the ten
years next preceding, have defaulted in the payment of any part of
either principal or interest of any legal debt or obligation thereof; and
prorided/itriAe?', that the total indebtedness of any such borough or
village does not exceed ten per centum of its assessed valuation, and
such school district bonds are by law charged upon all the property of
the inhabitants of such district, or in any interest-bearing obligation
(other than obligations commonly known as improvement certificates)
issued by the city, county, town, township, borough or village in
which such bank or institution is situated.
The following is the law of 1897 (approved April 9, 1897):
"Sec. 1. It shall be lawful for any bank, trust company, savingsbank
or savings institution * * * incorporated under the laws of this
State, to invest moneys belonging to or deposited with any such comSanies in any bonds authorized by the laws of this State to be issued
y any commission appointed by the Supreme Court of this State by
Tirtue of any law of this State."
We omit the law of 1896 with reference to school district bonds
because its provisions are included in the laws of 1899, quoted above.
Next we give the leading provisions of the general law as to invest-
ments.
first section of the act of which this is a sujiplesame is hereby amended so as to read as follows
That it shall not be lawful, from and after the passage of this act, for
any savings bank or other savings institution, whether chartered or
Section
l.
ment be and
That the
the
:
Incorporated under a general or special act of the legislature of this
State, and any provision contained in the charter, or any supplement
teereto, of such savings bank or savings institution to the contrary, to
Invest the moneys deposited with the same in any manner, except as
follows, to wit
I. In the stocks or bonds or interest-bearing notes or obligations of the
United States, or those for which the faith of the United States is
distinctly pledged to provide for the payment of the principal and
interest thereof;
II. In the interest-bearing bonds of this State;
III. In the bonds of any State in the Union that has not, within ten
Tears previous to making such investment by any such bank or institution, defaulted in the payment of any part of either principal or interest
of any debt authorized by any legislature of such State to be contracted.
rv. In the stocks or bonds of any city, town, county or village of this
State, issued pursuant to the authority of any law of this State, or of
ttie cities of New York, Brooklyn and Philadelphia, or in any interestbearing obligations (other than those commonly known as improvement certificates) issued by the city, town or borough in which such
bank or institution shall be situated (See below for provision including
the bonds of certain cities and counties of any State in the U. S).
V. In bonds secured by mortgages which shall be a first lien on real
estate situate in this State, and worth at least double the amount
loaned thereon, but not to exceed eighty per centum of the whole deposits shall be so loaned or invested ; but in case the loan is on unimproved
or unproductive real estate, the amount loaned thereon shall not be
more than thirty per centum of its actual value and no investment in
any bondand mortgage shall be made by any savings bank, except upon
the report of a conimittee of at least three of the managers, directors
or trustees of any such bank or institution, and a majority of which
committee shall certify to the value of the premises mortgaged, or to
be mortsaged, according to their best judgment; such report shall be
filed and preserved among the records of the institution
VI. In real estate strictly in accordance with the following proTisions.
;
;
We do not reprint the real estate provisions, as they cover a matter
not germane to our present subject. It is sutHcient to say that they are
two in number, marked (a) and (b), and may be summarized as below
(a) authorizes the holding of a plot for erection of a banking building or buildings, portions of which may be rented, but the cost of lot
•nd buildings must not exceed 50% of the net surplus of the corporation;
:
m^
59
TOWNS.
(b) all purchases under foreclosure sales upon mortgages owned by
the corporation or sales under iudgments or decrees obtained for debts
due, etc.; and all such real estate must be sold within five years unless,
on application to the State Board having supervision of Savings Banks,
time shall be extended.
But the character of permissible investments was further greatly
enlarged by the law of 1886, which is as follows
Section l. That it shall be lawful for any savings bank or savings institution, incorporated under any law of this State, to invest moneys
depo8it«d with it in the bonds of any city or county of any State of the
Unitea States of America, which have been or may be issued pursuant
to the authoritv of any law of any such State; provided, no such city or
county has, within ten years previous to making such investment by
any such savings bank or savings institution of this State, defaulted in
the payment of any part of either principal or interest of any debt
authorized by law of such State to be contracted; and provided, further, that the total indebtedness of any such city or county is li raited
by law to ten percentum of its assessed valuation.
By another Act the banks also have the risht to invest in railroad
bonds under certain restrictions. The authorization was given by
Section 2 of an Act approved February 22. 1888. Subsequently (April
27, 1888,) this Section 2 was repealed. On March 27, 1889, however,
The section is as follows
it was again re-enacted.
Section 2. That it shall be lawful for any savings bank in this State
to invest its funds iu first mortgage bonds of any raUroad company
which has paid dividends of not less than four per centum per annum
regularly, on their entire capital stock, for a period of not less than
five years next previoas to the purchase of such bonds, or in any consolidated mortgage bonds of any such company authorized to be issued
to retire the entire bonded debt of such company.
The other law referred to above passed in 1889 amending section 2
of the law of 1878 is as below. It relates to loans on collaterals. As
noted above, a slight but very important alteration in the phraseology
of this section was made by a law approved March 2 J, 1901, and
which forms chapter 148 of the laws of 1901. The new words intro:
duced are indicated by brackets ] below.
Section 2. Hereafter it shall not be lawful for any saving insti"
tutlon in this State to loan the money on deposit with the same, or any
part thereof, upon notes, biUs of exchange or drafts, excepting upon
the additional pledge of collateral security or securities, which collateral security or securities shall be of the same nature and character as
those in which the money deposited may be invested as directed in the
first section of this Act, or the capital stocks of national and State banks,
or [the capital stock or bonds of] other corporations of this State,
which nave not defaulted in the payment of iuterest [or] dividends
within two years next precediug the time of such loan, and then only
to the extent of eighli/ per centum of the market value of such collaterals provided, that the total amount of such loans shall not exceed
fifteen per centum of the total deposits held by such institution.
In addition to the foregoing (according to section 27 of the general
law of 1876) the managers can keep on hand or on deposit in any bank
In the State, or in any trust or safe deposit company in New Jerseyi
New York or Pennsylvania, an available fund of not exceeding ten per
cent of the whole amount of deposits with such corporation, or loan
the same on pledge of the securities named in the first section cited
above. Also (according to section 28 of the general law of 1876) they
can deposit temporarily in banks the excess of daily receipts over payments until such time as they may be judiciously Invested.

This city got into financial difficulties through making extensive
local Improvements. Interest was defaulted February 1, 1879, and a
compromise was finally effected with the bondholders, by which new 4
per cent bonds dated July 1, 1882, were issued in exchange for the
old 7 per cent bonds turned in at 50 per cent of their face value.

Jersey City formerly suflfered greatly from difficulty in collecting
taxes and assessments. Under the Martin Act, however, passed
some years ago by the Legislature, arrears of taxes are made liens on
the property, and if not paid within three years the property can be
sold to satisfy them. The city has also succeeded in at\}usting the taxes
with the railroads, and the latter now pay into the treasury about
$225,000 annually. On Feb. 13, 1900, the citizens authorized the purchase of a water plant (now building) for the sum of $7,595,000. V.

This city, of Union County, was declared bankrupt in 1882, and a compromise of the debt exclusive of the water debt ($135,000) was forthwith agreed to with most of the leading creditors at 35 cents on the
dollar, the debt, exclusive of water -debt, then amounting to about
$1,200,000. This settlement was completed in 1894, and interest is
now paid promptly on the new bonds. The water bonds were renewed
In 1891 at 4 per cent, an agreement having been made in 1890 by which
all accrued interest at 7 per cent was adjusted at the 35 per cent rate.
Interest on the water bonds is also promptly paid.

DEBT LIMITATION— In Pennsylvania the limit to the indebtedness
and to the indebtedness of the cities and minor civil
organizations in the State, is fixed by the State Constitution.
1. State indebtedness.— With regard to the State, the regulations
controlling and governing debt creation, pajTnent, &c., are found
in Sections 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, 13 and 14 of Article IX of the Constitution,
and are as follows.
Article IX, Sec. 4. No debt shall be created by, or on behalf of, the
State except to supply casual deficiencies of revenue, repel invasions,
suppress insurrection, defend the State in war, or to pay existing debt
and the debt created to supply deficiencies in revenue shall never
exceed, in the aggi-egate at any one time, one million of dollars.
Section 5. All laws authorizing the borrowing of money by, and on
behalf of, the ^ate shall specify the purpose for wliich the money is to
be used, and the money so borrowed shall be used for the purpose speciof the State,
and no other.
Section 6. The credit of the Commonwealth shall not be pledged or
loaned to any indi\idual, company, corporation or association, nor
shall the Commonwealth become a joint-owner or stockholder in any
company, association or corporation.
Section 11. Toprovideforthepaymentof the present State debt, and
any additional debt contracted as aforesaid, the General Assembly
shall continue and maintain the sinking fvmd sufficient to pay the
accruing interest on such debt, and annually to reduce the principal
thereof by a smn not less than two huutli-ed and fifty thousand dollars
the said sinking fund shall consist of the proceeds of the sales of the
public works, or any part thereof, and of the income or proceeds of the
sale of any stocks owned by the Commonwealth, together with other
funds and resources that may bo designated by law, and shall be
increased fi-om time to time by assigning to it any part of the taxes or
other revenue of the State not required for the ordinary and current
expenses of government, and unless in case of war, invasion or insurrection, no part of the said sinking fund shall be used or applied otherwise than in the extinguishment of the public debt.
Section 12. The moneys of the State, over and above the necessary reserve, shall be used in the _i)aymout of the debt of the State, either
directly or through the sinking fund, and the moneys of the sinking
fund shall never be invested in or loaned upon the security of anything
except the bonds of the United States or of tills State.
Section 13. The moneys held as necessary reserve shall be limited
by law to the amount required for current expenses, and shall be secured and kept as may be provided by law. Monthly statements shall
be published, showing the amount of such moneys, where the same are
deposited, and how secured.
Section 14. The making of profit out of the public monevs, or using
the same for any purpose not authorized by law, by any officer of the
State, or member or officer of the- General Assembly, shall be a misdemeanor, and shall bo punished as may be provided by law; but part of
such i)uiiishmeiit shall be disqualittcation.to hold office for a period of
not less than five years.
State loans in Pennsylvania, whether created for original indebtedness or authorized to fund existing indebtedness, are usually negotiated through the Governor and Commissioners of the sinking fund.
The last act of the Pennsylvania Legislatui'O authorizing a public
loan was the act of Juno 8, 1881, when a thirty-year loan was etteoted
to fund existing Indebtedness at a lower rate of Interest.
fied
M
ftmBY ly/^m/^— cir itB
April, 1903.
The earliest date at which the last of the existing indebtedness of
Pennsylvania will mature is February 1, 1912, and, under existing arrangements the accumulations in the sinking fund will at that time
pay the total State indebtedness.
and Municipal Jnefefttedness.— Under the laws of
(2) County
Pennsylvania the power to create county loans is in the Board of
County Commissioners, which consists in each countv.of three persons,
elected tri-ennially under the minority system of voting, by which
the minority party in each County usually has one member of the Board.
In cities and boroughs the power to create indebtedness is vested in
councils, municipal debts being created by ordinance.
The creation of county, city and other municipal indebtedness l8
subject to the following constitutional limitations.
Article IX, Sec. 7. The General Assembly shall not authorize any
county, city, borough, township or incorporated district to become a
stockholder in any company, association or corporation, or to obtain or
appropriate money for, or to loan Its credit to, any corporation, association, institution or individual.
Section 8. The debt of any county, city, borough, township, school
district, or other municipality or incorporated district, except as
herein provided, shall never exceed seven per centum upon the
assessed value of the taxable property therein, nor shall any such
municipality or district incur any new debt, or increase its indebtedness to an amount exceeding two per centum upon such assessed
valuation of property, without the assent of the electors thereof at a
pubUo election in such manner as shall be provided by law but any
city the debt of which now exceeds seven per centum of such assessed
valuation may be authorized by law to increase the same three per
centum, in the aggregate at any one time, upon such valuation.
Section 9. The Commonwealth shall not assume the debt, or any
part thereof, of any city, county, borough or township, unless such
debt shall have been contracted to enable the State to repeal invasion,
suppress domestic insurrection, defend itself in time of war, or to
assist the State in the discharge of any portion of its present indebted;
ness.
Section 10. Any county, township, school district or other municiSality incurring any indebtedness shall, at or before the time of so
oiag, provide for the collection of an annual tax sufficient to pay the
interest, and also the principal thereof within thirty years.
(3) Toionshipa and School I>istricts.—In the various school districts
of the State the school directors have the power to create loans, subeot to the limitatio ns of Section 10 above quoted, to provide for the
redemption of the same within thirty years.
In townships, the only authority, except that of the school directors
to borrow money, is in the road supervisors, who have no power to
create bonded Lndebtedness, but simply to make a temporary loan for
necessary expenses, which must be provided for by an assessment of
sufficient township tax rate, known as road tax.

of starting the tirst savings institution in the United States. The
name this association bore was the " Philadelphia Savings Fund
Society," and it still exists, bearing the same name. Originally the
bank was not incorporated, but was a voluntary organization, such
Great Britain being at that time of a Uke character. The
date of the organization was November 27, 1816, and the bank was
opened for business December 2, 1816. Mr. Hutchinson, who, now
societies in
holds the office of .'President, states that the oldest ledger of the company
goes back to the time of opening, and shows a deposit on that day
^December 2, 1816) of five dollars. The company was not incorporated until February 25, 1819.
It is surprising that Pennsylvania, although engaged in such an early
venture in the department of savings institutions, should Ijave made
so little progress in the same department since. Indeed, the second
organization does not bear date until 1847, and we think there had
only been 10 mutual savings institutions organized in the whole State
from 1816 down to the early part of 1890. We may assume, however
that this slow development was in no measure due to a lack of desire
(or savings banks on the part of the people of that common
wealth.
That such institutions were sought and needed is
sufficiently evident from the fact that nine of the ten companies referred to above reported in 1890 that they held $63,957,341 of
deposits. In 1889 a general law, facilitating the incorporation of savings banks, was passed by the Legislature. Since then there has been
a small addition to the number of institutions, the total doing business
In the State in November, 1902, being 15, with deposits aggregating

A

In 1889, authorizing the extension for

contains the following.
"Provided also, that no * * * Savings Institution or Savings
Bank having no capital stock, renewing or extending its charter,
corporate rights and franchises, under the provisions of this act, shall
thereafter be allowed the privileges of a bank of discount, nor be
allowed to loan any money received on deposit, except first mortgage
or lien upon real estate within this commonwealth, upon the bonds or
securities of the United States or of this State, or upon county, city,
borough, township or school bonOs of any county, city, borough, townhip or school district within this commonwealth, or any other good
valid securities."
Authority to loan on any " good and valid security "appears to confer about as broad a discretion upon the managers as could be
expressed in a statute.
In 1897 an Act was passed allowing savings iDStitutions and saving*
banks chartered under special acts to invest In Pennsylvania county
and municipal bonds notwlthst anding any provisions of their charters.
The law follows:
Chapter 77. Laws of 1897.— From and after the passage of this
Act all provident Institutions, savings institutions and savings banks,
chartered under special acts of this Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
may. notwithstanding any pi-ovistons of tbeir charter, loan the
moneys received by them on deposit upon the bonds of any county,
city, borougb, township or school district within this Commonwealth,
and

issued pursuant to the authority of any law of this Commonwealth for
the payment of which the faith and credit of the municipality issuing
them are pledged.
It was not until 1889, as already stated, that a general law faciliThat
tating the organization of savings institutions was passed.
law of 1889 is indeed well adapted not only for facilitating, but for
stimulating, the gi-owth of the system.
Its influence In the latter
direction would seem to be assured under the liberality of the
provi.sions respecting investments. The following is section 17, which
contains the investment limitations; we would especially direct
attention to subdivision four of tliis section:
Section 17.— It shall be lawful for the trustees of any savings bank
to invest money deposited therein only as follows:
(1.) In the stocks or bonds or interest-bearing notes or the obligations of the United States, or those for which the faith of the United
States is pledged to provide for the payment of the interest and the
principal.
(2) In the stocks or bonds of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
bearing interest.
(3) In the stocks or bonds of any State in the Union that has not
within ten years previous to making such investments, by such corporation, defaulted in the payment of any part of either principal or interest of any debt authorized by any Legislature of such State to be
contracted.
(4) In the stocks or bonds of any city, county, town or village of
any State of the United States, issued pursuant to the authority of any
law of the State, or in any interest-bearing obligations issued by the
city or county in which such bank shall be situated.
(5) In bonds and mortgages on unincumbered, improved real estate,
situated in this State.
It will be noted that according to the foregoing (sub-division
four), Pennsylvania savings banks are allowed to invest their
deposits in the bonds and stocks of any city, county town or village in
any of the United States. Furthermore, by the tifth subdivision bonds
and mortgages are left to the discretion of the trustees in all purchases,
except that they must be first mortgages on improved real estate in
Pennsylvania. The next section (18) relates to the temporary deposit
of funds in banks and trust comiianies. It makes it lawful to deposit
temporarily in banks or trust companies the excess of current daily
receipts over the payments until such time as the same can be judioiously invested in the securities named above.

Philadelphia, co-extenslve with the county of the same name, is the
third city of the United States, has an area of over 130 square miles,
and includes a number of places which have almost the character of
separate towns. The county is imder city control and has no separate
debt. In the following table the various issues of bonds under the
general heads. Taxed City Loan and Untaxed City Loan, are given in
the order of their dates of maturitv.
The long-continued litigation over the issuance of the $11,200,000

SAVINGS BANKS INVESTMENTS.-There are in this State general banking laws under which savings banks may be organized, and
yet we notice that as late as 1890 a special charter was granted incor.
proating the Germania Sav Bank of Baltimore. However, in both the
general and special laws there appears to be a pretty general authority
granted for investing the deposits. The general law states that—
Any savings Institution incorporated under this article shall be
capable of receiving from any person or persons, or bodies corporate or
politic, any deposit of money ichich shall be invested or loaned out on
good security in the discretion of the directors; provided that no part of
the funds of* said corporation shall be loaned to any offl,eer or director of
such corporation.
In the special law passed in 1890, which we have referred to above,
the power to loan the deposits is made a little more definite. The section referring to that subject states that the " corporation shall have
"power to borrow money, receive money on deposit, loan money
'taking such security therefor, either real orpersonal, as the Board of
' Directors
may deem sufficient; provided that 710 part of the funds of
" said corporation shall be loaned to an oMcer or director thereof."
We cannot discover any marked difference in the two provisions
cited, except that the enactment in the case of the new Baltimore bank
states distinctly that the security can be either real or personal. But as
much as that would, we think, be assumed as authorized under the general provision, since no limit is made and loaning on bond and mortgage
is always a legitimate part of the business of savings banks.

DEBT LIMITATION.—There is nothing in the Constitution of
Maryland limiting the power of the Legislature to authorize bond issues
Ither by the State or by its municipalities, except that In Section 34,
Article 3, we find that "the credit of the Siate shall not In any manner
be given, or loaned to, or in aid of any individual association or corporation; nor shall the General Assembly have the power In any
mode to involve the State in the construction of works of internal
improvement, nor In granting any aid thereto, which shall
Involve the faith or credit of the State." No general limit for cities
and towns has been fixed by the Legislature, nor is there any general
authorization to be found In the statutes under which cities and towns
can Issue bonds. This power is lodged In the Legislature, and Is dele
gated to the municipalities from time to time for specific purposes as

DEBT LIMITATION.— Ohio has very carefully guarded the debtmaking power of the State. This could not be said while the Constitution of 1802 was in force ; for under that instrument it was competent
for the Legislature to construct works of internal improvement on
behalf of the State, or to aid in their construction by subscribing to the
capital stock of cori'orations created for that purpose, or to autliorize
in other ways the creation of debt In unlimited amounts. Hut since the

DEBT, EESOUECES,
CITIES,
FIRST, As to the State's power to contract debt, this is regulated under
the first five sections of article 8 of the Constitution. Section 1 limits the
jiower to the supply of " casual deficits in revenues or to meet expenses
not otherwise provided for," but in the aggregate debts for even the
purposes named cannot exceed $750,000. Section 2 contains an exception to the foregoing it grants the power to contract debt in case of invasion, of insurrection, of war or of the redemption of the then existing
indebtedness. Section 3 reaflinns the limit, except as above specified.
Section 4 forbids the loaning of the State credit. Section 5 further forbids
the assumption of debts by States. We insert these five sections in full.
SECTION 1. [Debt limited to seven hnndred aiid fifty thousand dollars].
The State may contract debts to supply casual deficits or failures in
revenues or to meet expenses not otherwise provided for; but the
aggregate amount of such debts direct and contingent whether
contracted by virtue of one or more acts of the General Assembly, or at
difl'erent periods of time, shall never exceed seven hundred and fifty
thousand dollars; and the money arising from the creation of such
debts shall be applied to the purpose for which it was obtained or to
re-pay the debts so contracted and to no other purpose whatever.
Section 2. [Additional and for what pta-pose.] In addition to the
above limited power the State may contract debts to repel invasion,
suppress insurrection, defend the State in war, or to redeem the present
outstanding indebtedness of the State; but the money arising from the
contracting of such debts shall be applied to the purpose for which it
was raised, or to re-pay such debts, and to no other purpose whatever,
and all debts incurred to redeem the present outstanding indebtedness of the State shall be so contracted as to be payable by the
sinking fund hereinafter provided for as the same shall accumulate.
Section 3. [The State to create no other debt.] Exceptthe debts above
specified in Sections 1 and 2 of this article, no debt whatever shall hereafter be created by or on behalf of the State.
Section 4. [Credit of State; the State shall notbecome joint otoner or
stockholder.] The credit of the State shall not in any manner be given
or loaned to or in aid of any individual association or corporation whatever; nor shall the State ever hereafter become ajoint owner or stockholder in any company or association in this State or elsewhere formed
for any purpose whatever.
Section 5. [No assumption of debts by the State.] The State shall
never assume the debts of any county, city, town or township, or of
any corporation whatever, unless such debt shall have been created to
repel invasion, suppress insurrection or defend the State in war.
The foregoing sections complete the limitation as to State debt and
credit. Sections 7,8,9,10 and 11 of Article 8 cover the matter of sinking funds referred to in Section 2 above. But they need not be published
;
here.
SECOND, As to
Cities, Torons, Counties, c£c., so far as
the Constitution
affects the power of the Legislature to authorize these municipalities to create debt, the limitations are found in section 6 of article
(1) Section
6 of
8 and in sections 1, 2 and 6 of article 13.
article
8 forbids the General Assembly to authorize cities,
become stockholders in or to raise money or loan
&o., to
credit to aid corporations, &c. (2) Sections 1 and 2 of article 13 forbid
the passing of special acts and require general acts for conferring corporate powers. (3) Section 6 of article 13 provides that the General
Assembly make provision for the organiziition of cities, <fec., by general
laws and restrict their debt-making power. These sections are as follows:
Article 8, Section 6. [Coutities, cities, toioiis or townships not authorized to become stockholders, rf-c] The General Assembly shall never
authorize any county, city, town or to%VTiship, by vote of its citizens or
otherwise, to become a stockholder in any joint stock company, corjioration or association whatever or to raise money for, or loan Its credit
to, or In aid of, any such company, corporation or association.
Article 13, Section 1. [Corporate powers]. The General Assembly
shall pass no special act conferring corporate powers.
Section 2. [Corj)orations how formed]. Corporations may be formed
under general laws but all such' laws may from time to time be altered
or repealed.
Section 6. [Organization of cities, dtc] The General Assembly shall
provide for the organization of cities and incorporated villages by general laws and restrict their power of taxation, assessment, borrowing
money, contracting debts and loaning their credit, so as to prevent the
abuse of such power.
One at first sight would infer from section 6 article 8 above cited that
cities could not subscribe to the stock of or loan money to railroads, as
railroads are corporations and joint-stock comjianies. That, however,
is not a correct conclusion, as was decided in the case of Walker vs. The
City of Cincinnati, a case which arose under an act of the General
Assembly of Oliio entitled " An Act relating to cities of the first class,"
authorizing any such city to construct a lino of railroad therefrom to
any otlior terminus in that State or In any other State. In
pursuance of the authority tliat act purports to give, Cinciunatl
undertook to build the Cincinnati Southern Kalli'oad. To test the lejfal;

Under the Ohio Statutes this village was limited to an 8-mlll tax,
which was found to be insufllcient to pav the regular running city expenses as well as Interest on \t* bonds. The coupons due Sept. 1, It 96,
were therefore not paid. The court of last resort was appealed to and
In 1901 rendered a decision that the bonds are legal and that the 8miU limit of taxation may be exceeded for the payment of Interest
ai d principal on bonds. The village has since paid all past-due coupons

DEBT LIMITATION.— In the present Constitution of Indiana, which
went into
eflfect
November 1, 1351. superseding the Constitution adopted
in 1816, there are explicit provisions Umiting the power of both the
State and its municipalities to contract debt.
FIRST, as to the State, Section 5 of article 10 provides that no debt
except to meet casual deficits in revenue, to pay interest, to repel invasion &c. can be contracted. The section in full is subjoined.
Creation of Debt Forbidden.—No law shall authorize any debt to be
contracted on behalf of the State except in the following cases : To
meet casual deficits in the revenue to pay interest on the State debt ;
to repel invasion, suppress insurrection, or, if hostilities be threatened,
provide for the public defense.
In the sixth section of the same article the last clause prohibits the
assumption by the State of the debts of any municipality or corporation.
The clause referred to reads as follows.
"Nor shall the General Assembly ever on behalf of the State assume
the debts of any county, eity, town or township, nor of any corporation
;
whatever."
SECOXD, as to tnunicipalities, the provision contained In the
Constitution seems to be equally clear and emphatic, and, as will be
found, fixes the limit at 2 per cent of the valuation. It is article 13 of
that instrument which relates to this subject, and we give the article in
full below.
Limited Excess Void.- No political or municipal corporation
In this State shall ever become indebted in any manner or for any purpose to an amount in the aggregate exceeding two per centum on the
yaluation of the taxable property within such corporation, to be ascertained by the last assessment for State and County taxes previous to
the incurring of such indebtedness
and all bonds or obligations in
excess of such amount given by such corporation shall be void Provided, That in time of war, foreign invasion, or other great public
calamity, on petition of a majority of the property owners in number
and value, within the limits of such corporation, the public authorities
in their discretion may incur obligations necessary for the public protection and defense to such an amount aa may be requested in such
—
;
;
petition.
It should
be said in connection with the above that several laws
have been enacted since the foregoing constitutional limit was adopted
(March 14 1881), and bonds have been issued by counties thereunder
beyond the 2 per cent limit, for the construction of "free gravel, stone
or other macadamized roads."
Several such laws were passed at the
1899 session of the Legislature. But in the case of Strieb vs. Cox,
Treas., Ill Ind., the Supreme Court of Indiana held that gravel road
bonds are not properly indebtedness of the county—hence do not com©
within the inhibition of Section 13 of the Constitution. (See editorial
in State and Citv Supplement for October. 1899, page 3.)
THIRD, counties {hVLt no other kind of municipality) are prohibited
from subscribing for any stock in a corporation unless paid for at time
of such subscription. The section which covers this subject is section 6
of article 10, and is as follows.
Counties Cannot Take Stock. No county shall subscribe for stock
in any incorporated company unless the same be paid for at the time of
such subscription; nor shall any county loan its credit to any incorporated company, nor borrow money for the puriKise of taking stock in
any such company; nor shall the General Assembly ever on behalf of
the State assume the debts of any county, city, town or township, nor of
any corporation whatever.
The prohibition which this section contains applies, as already stated,
only to counties. Consequently the Legislature was at liberty to authorize cities to subscribe to the stock of railroads, as it did by a general
law passed in 1869 granting the power to subscribe to the stock of any
railroad running into or through any city or near its corporate limits.
Other laws of a .somewhat similar character have been passed at other
dates. We notice one law, too ((Section 5377 Surns's Annotated Statutes, revision 1901), which authorizes counties bordering on the State
line, or any township or city situated In such county, to subscribe for
railroad stock. In that law no attempt is made to endow counties with
power to issue bonds for this purpose (thus obeying the mandate of
the Constitution), though by the succeeding section (Section 5378)
cities are given aatbority to issue euoh bonds.
92
Bi/iit fi'Hn oiTY
OOTJNTIES are apparently restricted by statute to a lower than the
Constitutional limit of 2 per cent in the matter of creating certain kinds
of debt. For instance. Section 7834 of Burns's Annotated Statutes,
If 01, authorizes any county to issue bonds when necessary to construct, complete or repair court house, jail or other county buildings,
or to fund existing debt; in those cases county commissioners may
borrow for that purpose not exceeding 1 per cent on assessed valuation and issue bonds therefor, provided that no second or subsequent
loan shall be made or authorized so long as any former loan made
under the provisions of the Act shall remain unpaid. From Section
7920 it appears, moreover, that whenever the aagrtgate indebtedneas,
funded or otherwise, of any county having a voting population of over
20,000 amounts to or exceeds one per cent, it is not lawful to increase
such indebtedness in any manner or form except only by temporary
loans In anticipation of the revenue ot the then current fiscal year and
not exceeding two thirds of the amount of the county tax duplicate of
the preceding year.
Limit of one per cent may be exceeded in counties for funding purposes in "certain cases where the aggregate indebtedness in 1879
exceeded one per cent (see Burns's Kevised Statutes, 1901, Section
7918); also for temporary loans (see Burns's Revised Statutes, 1901,
Section 7920).
Also (if the laws that have been passed are constitutional), the limit
of 2 per cent may be exceeded for the purpose of making gravel roads
(see above), theSupreme Court having decided that gravel road bonds
arenot properly an indebtedness of tlie county. By statute the llmlc
for such bonds (Section 6910) is 4 per cent.
In addition to the foregoing, general statutes have been passed by the
Legislature granting general powers to cities and towns to issue
bonds for legitimate corporate purposes, subject, however, to the Constitutional limit of 2 per cent on valuation. But we have not the space
to set out here the details, or the details of the other legislation applicable to cities of larger and smaller population, and covering sneciflo
purposes, such as water works, &c.
GRAVEL ROAD BOlNDS.-The
BILL LEGALIZING
Legislature
in 1901 passed a bill (Chapter 136) legalizing all bonds, sold or unsold, issued under an act of the Legislature, approved March 3, 1893,
as amended by Acts approved March 7, 1895, and Feb. 24, 1899. All
acts and orders of the Board of County Commissioners passed under
these laws are by this new law legalized and made valid
EXEMPTION FROM
TAXATION.-TheLeglslatiire of 1903 passed
a law (approved March 9) exempting from taxation all Donds, notes,
etc., hereafter issued by State or municipal corporations. The section
follows
Section 1. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of
Indiai a. That all bonds, notes and other evidences of Indebtednesss
hereafter Issued by the State of Indiana or by munioinal corporations
within the State upon which the said State or the s^id' municipal corporations pay Interest shall be exempt from taxation.

FIRST, as to the Stale, the provisions are not very unlike the provisions of the Constitution of 1848, except that as to the limit for casual deficits and failures of revenue, the aggregate which can be created is very
properly raised to .$250,000. But with that exception and with the
further exception for the purpose of repelling invasion etc. no debt
can be contracted unless the law is submitted to a vote of the people at
a general election, which law must contain a i>rovision for the payment
of interest as it accrues, and previous notice of the election be given by
publication for three months prior to such election. These last two
restrictions as to interest and notice of election are only found in the
1870 Constitution. The sections which cover these matters are as follows; we omit the flist portion of Sectioti 18, of Article IV., which
relates only to approoriations and payment of appropriations out of
funds belonging to the State
Proi-kled, the state may. to meet casual

deficits or failures in revenues, contract debts never to exceed in the agareyate $250,000, and moneys tiius borrowed shall be applied to the
purpose for which they were obtained, or to pav the debt thus created,
and to no other purpose: and no other debt except tor <he purpose of
repelling invasion, suppressing insurrection or defending the State in
war (for payment of which the faith of the State shall be pledged), shall
be contracted, unless the law authorizing the same shall at a general
election have been submitted to the people, and have received a majority
of the votes cast for members of the General Assembly at such election
The General Assembly shall provide for the publication of said law for
three months at least before the vote of the penple shall he taken upon
the same: and provision shall be made at the time for the payment of
the interest annunlty as it shall accrue, by a tax levied for the purpose
or from other sources of revenue; which law providing for the payment
of such interest by such tax, shall be irrepealable until such debt be
paid: Atid provided pirther, that the law levying the tax shall be submitted to the people with the law authorizing tde debt to be contracted.
SECTION 20 rhe State shall never pay, assume or become responsible
for the debts or liabilities of. or in an.v manner give, loan, or extend
its credit to or in aid of any public or other corporation, association or
of 1870. Inthatinstrumentthe suliject is dealt with in all its phases First
is a provision in Article 8, Section 3, for bidding the Geaeral Assembly and

DEBT LIMITATION.—No State has developed a greater repugnance
to the creating of debt than Illinois, if we may judge from the provisions
of its present Constitution. We say developed, because this antagonism
has apparently been pro.gre8sive. Nothing of it is to be found in the
Constitution of 1818. The Constitution of 1848 contains no reference
to municipalities, but has in it stringent restrictions limiting to $50,000
the power of the Legislature to create State debt, except in case of war.
Invasion, etc., unless the law proposing tlie issue of bonds is submitted
to a vote of the people. But turning to the Constitution of 1870 we find
the whole subject of debt-making most thoroughly considered and its
individual.

Ouder a law passed Feb. 25, 1898, there will be a general assessment
of real estate but once in every four years Instead of annually personal property will be listed every year. The law also provides that
property shall be appraii^ed at full value but assessed'at only oneofth of such value.

Second is a --separate nectiou" forbidding anv such
municipality from becoming a subscriber to the stock of any railroad,
ifec or to loan its cn^dit
Third is the broad and general provision
Section 12, Article 9. which limits the indebtedness of all municipalities to 5 per cent '- on the value of the taxable property therein," &c.
We give thess sections below:
Article 8. heetion 3. Meitner the General Assembly nor any county
city, town, township, school district, or other public corporation, shall
ever makp any appropriation, or pav from anv public fund whatever,
anything in aid of any church or sectarian purpose, or to help support
or sustain any school, academy, seminary, college, university, or other
literary or scientific in.stitution controlled, by any church or sectarian
denomination whatever nor shall any grant or donation of land, money
or other personal property ever be made by the State, or any such pubUo
corporation, to any church or for any sectarian purpose.
Article 9, Section 12. No county, city, township, school district op
other municipal corporation shall be allowed to become indebted in any
maimer or for any purpose, to an amount, including existing indebtedness, in the aggregate exceeding five per centum on the value of the
taxable property therein, to be ascertained by the last assessment for
State and county taxes, previous to the incurring of such indebtedness.
Any county, city, school district or other municipal corporation incurrinsr any indebtedjiess as aforesaid shall before, or at the time of doing
so, provide for the collection of a direct annual tax suliicient to pay the
interest on such debt as it falls due, and also to pay and discharge the
principal thereof within twenty years from the time of contracting the
same. This section shall not be construed to prevent any county, city,
township, school district, or other municipal corporation, from issuing
their bonds in compliance with any vote of the people which may have
been had prior to the adoption of this Constitution in pursuance of any
law providing therefor.
Separate Sections. [Municipal subscriptions to railroads etc.] No
county, city, town, town.ship or other municipality shall ever become
subscriber to the capital stock of any railroad or private corporation, or
make donation to or loan its credit in aid of such corporation, provided,
however, that the adoption of this article shall not be construed as attecting the right of any such municipality to make such subscriptions
where the same have been authorized, under existing laws, by a vote of
the people of such municipalities prior to such adoption.
The foregoing limitation to 5 per cent is general, as will be seen that
With this limitation preserved the
Is, it applies to all municipalities.
Legislature has passed general laws authorizing the city council in
oities and the board of trustees in villages to issue bonds for coriiorate
purposes, for refunding and consolidating debt, for water works, etc.;
and the county board of any county has been authorized by general
statute to issue, when it deems it necessary, county bonds, after submitting the matter to the legal voters of the county at a general election,
at which a majority vote is required as a prerequisite of the issue. Recently an attempt was made to limit "any county, cit.v, township,
pchool district or municipal corporation" in counties containing 125,000 or more inhabitants to 2^2 per cent of the assessed value, init Jan.
12, 1900, the State Supreme Court ruled that this was an arbitrary
and unnatural classitlcation of municipalities which could not be sustained. Pee Vol. 70, page 242.
The matter of the amount of bonds that might he Issued on the basis
of the debt limitations given has been complicated in lafe years by
change" in the method of assessing property. A letter of the State
Auditor in V. 74. p. 7 tl. throws some light on these changes.
Water Ceutikicates in Excess of Debt Limit.— A law was passed
in 1899 allowing cities bonded to their legal limit to issue (for the
improvement of water-works) certificates against the earnings of the
Water Department without regard to the bonded indebtedness.
Several municipalities are understood to have taken advantage of
this law. In the case of the City of Jollet, however, which attemiited
to issue bonds under tbis law, the matter was taken into the courts in
a test suit, and an injunction granted by Judge Dibell, who held that
the 5 per cent limit could not be exceeded.— V. 73, p. 94. This decision
was confirmed by Supreme Court. V. 74, p. 491.
Improvement Bonds.-There is a kind of improvement bond authorized in some cases which is made a special lien on the land benefited
and to which the 5 per cent limit has no reference. We refer to cases
which come under the law entitled " To divide cities and villages subject
"to overflow into improvement districts." This statute provides that
any such city or village or part thereof may be laid off into an imiirovement district for the purpose of draining, raising the grade of thestreets
and iiuprovijig the district; that after the cost for the work has been
ascertained and lioon assessed, the assessment may be paid in Instaliiaenta orothsrwise and such city or village may issue bonds sutHolent
In that case the bonds are a lien

charged must endorse upon the back of such bond his consent,
under seal. In snbstance as follows " I hereby indorse the within bond
" and consent that the lot or lots or parts thereof therein designated
" shall become lia ale for the interest and principal therein namea and
"the same shall be a lien upon said property from this date until paid
"oflf and discharged." The bond when executed by the city or village
and so endorsed by the owner shall be recorded in the recorder's office
In the county, and such record shall be a notice of the lien created to the
same extent as the record of mortgages is a notice.
We have room to give only this very brief and imperfect outline of this
statute. The whole law will be found in the Hurd'sRevised Statutes of
Illinois, the 1901 edition, pages 337 and 338.

\
This city is in Cook County and was incorporated March 4, 1837.
Besides the issues below some new issues were in contemplation, the
matter hinging on the interpretation to be given to the new assessment law. See V. 70, p. 600. The Circuit Court on Dec. 1, 1900,
granted an injunction preventing the city from issuing any more
bonds (V. 71, p. 1183), which ruling was C'intirmed by the Supreme
Court. V. 72, p. 450.
In December, 1902, the city ott-red $4,000,000
31^% bonds for sale, but did not receive any bids. These bonds were
for the purpose of taking up an existing judgment debt so that the
City's aggregate debt was not to be increased thereby. The bonds were
atrain ottered in February. 1903, but were withdrawn before the date of
pale, it being deemed best to ^ubmlt thpi question of issuing the bonds
to a vote before putting them out V. 76, p. 502.

HISTORY OF DEBT.—Tlie historical details of Michigan's State
debt will be found in the State and City Sdpplement of April. 1894,
page 98. In 1864 the State Treasurer reported the funded debt at
$3,880,399, and $1,450,472 additional " Trust fund debt." The boncied
102
AH^
ST;^T£
debt July 1, 1902. consisted of $41 6,300 war loan bonds of 1898. The
sinking fund applicable to tlie retirement of tlie war bonds on July 1
1902. amounted to $473,311 99. The "Trust fund debt" on July 1.
1902. amounted to $6,497,036 49. The term "Trust Fund Debt" is,
however, a misnomer. In explanation it should be said that the
United States Government set aside ceitain lands in the State of Mich,
ipan for educational purposes, and under the Michigan statutes the
money received from the sale of these lands is used to pay the general
expenses of the State; the law provides, however, that a certain
specilied rate of interest must be annually figured on the total amount
accumulated from said sales and be paid over to the educational institutions specitied. The amount of interest to be so paid is raised
by taxation. All the Michigan war-loan bonds of 1898 given below
have been called for payment May 1, 1903.

QEBj LIMITATION. Michigan, as noted in our history of
the State's debt, started its career as a State in January 1837, when the
whole land was buoyant over its inflated enterprises caiTied on at public
expense. So to be abreast with the times, instead of putting any limit
on the power of the State to create debt, it put into its Constitution a
notice to the Legislature to ^o to work at once and make provision for
'* ascertaining the proper objects of improvement in relation to roads,
" canals and navigable waters," that the money might be raised and
these improvements might be prosecuted with as little delay as possible.
That was the spirit which ruled and the condition which prevailed in
1837. In 1850 Michigan made and adopted another Constitution. During the years which intervened the people had gained a wide experience
and had evidently profited by it. Hence we find them at the latter date
showing a purpose to make an instrument in its financial features about
as dissimilar from the one it was to supplant as it could'well be. Nothing
will illustrate this change in spirit and puriiose more clearly than the
foUowong limitations respecting the creation of State indebtedness
which were inserted. These sections are all found in article 14 of the
1850 Constitution, which Constitution is still in force.
Section 3. The State may contract debts to meet deficits in revenue.
Such debts shall not in the aggregate at any one time exceed fifty
thousand dollars. The moneys so raised shall be applied to the purposes for which they were obtained or to the payment of the debts so
contracted.
^
, ^
^
Section 4. The State may contract debts to repel invasion, suppress
the State in time of war. The money arising
insurrection or defend
from the contracting of such debts shall be applied to the purpose for
which it was raised or to pay such debts.
Section 6. The credit of the State shall not be granted to or in aid of
any person, association or corporation.Section 7. No scrip, certificatQk or other evidence of State indebtedness shall be issued except for the redemption of stock previously
Issued or for such debts as are expressly authorized in this Constitution.
Section 8. The State shall not subscribe to, or be interested in the
stock of any company, association or corporation.
Section 9. The State shall not be a party to, or interested in, any work
of Internal improvement, nor engage in carrying on any such work except in the expenditure of grants to the State of land or other property.
The foregoing sections appear to cover every branch and phase of the
subject and compared with the Constitution of 1837 what a contrast
and on the 5 per cent water bonds at the National Park Bank, New
York on sewer bonds in New York.

In the exercise of the power granted by this section the Legislature
has passed general laws governing the incorporation, taxation and

HISTORY OF DEBT. For a brief Ustoryof the Wisconsin debt
see State and City Supplement ol April, 1895.
At present the State has no indebtedness except the trust funds, as

DEBT LIMITATION.—The
constitutional provisions of Wisconsin
restricting debtrmalcing are very rigorous, plain and comprehensive.
Since the amendment adopted in 1874, cities &c., as well as the State,
are definitely limited by that instrument. We will give the provisions
llrst wlilch relate to the State and after that those which have reference
to cities, <&c.
It
(1) STATE indebtedness is confined within very close bounds.
seems as if the framers of the Constitution must have taxed to the
extreme their ingenuity for forms in which to express their determination to inhibit debt-making. The sections which cover the subject are
sections 3, 4, 6, 7, 9 and 10 of Article 8. We give them in full below.
Section 3. Oredit of State, for what not given. The credit of the
State shall never be given or loaned in aid of any Individual, association or corporation.
Section 4. Contracting debts. The State shall never contract any
public debt, except in the cases and manner herein pro\'1ded.
Section 6. Liinilation on public debt. For the purpose of defraying
extraordinary expenditures, tlie State may contract public debts (but
eucb debts sliall never in the aggregate exceed one liundred thousand
dollars). Every sucli debt shall l)e iiuthorized by law, for some purpose
or purposes to be distinctly specitled therein; and the vote of a majority
of all tne members elected to each House, to be taken by yeas and nays,
shall be necessary to the passage of such law and every such law shall
provide for levying an annual tax snfticlent to pay the annual interest
of such debt, and the principal within five years from the passage of
such law, and shall specially appropriate the proceeds of such taxes to
the payment of such principal and Interest; and such ai)proprlatlon
shall not be repealed, nor the taxes be postponed, or diminished, until
the principal and interest of such debt shall have been wholly paid.

Evidences of
debt.
No
scrip, certificate, or other
evidence
of State debt, whatsoever, shall be issued, except for such debts as are
authorized by the sixth and seventh sections of this article.
Section 10. Internal improvements avails of grants. The State
shall never contract any debt for works of internal improvement, or be
a party in carrying on such works, but whenever grants of land or other
property shall have been made to the State, especially dedicated by the
grant to particular works of internal improvement, the State may carry
on such particular works, and shall devote thereto the avails of such
grants, and may pledge or appropriate the revenues derived from such
works in aid of their completion.

CITIES, ETC.
CITIES, counties, towns, villages, dec, were unrestricted except by
enactment until 1874. Since that amendment was adopted
five per cent on the value of the taxable property has been the extreme
amount of debt permissible for any municipality. Not only is that the
case, but, as vrtll be seen, the municipality is required before or at the
time when it incurs any indebtedness, to make provision for an annual
tax sufficient to pay the interest and also suificient to pay the principal
within twenty years from the time of contracting the debt. We give
below the amendment referred to in full.
Limitation of Municipal Indebtedness — Adding to Section 3, Article
11, the words:
No county, city, town, village, school district, or other municipal corporation, shall be allowed to become indebted in any manner or for any
purpose, to any amount, including existing indebtedness in the aggregate
exceeding five per centum on the value of the taxable property therein,
to be ascertained by the last assessment for State and county taxes previous to the incurring of such indebtedness. Any county, city, town,
village, school district, or other municipal corporation incurring any
Indebtedness, as aforesaid, shall before or at the time of doing so provide for the collection of a dii'ect annual tax sutBclent to pay the interest
on such debt as it falls due, and also to pay and discharge the principal
thereof within twenty years from the time of contracting the same.
On April 20, 1893, a new law passed by the Legislature of Wisconsin
was approved by the Governor which gives general authority for the
issuance of bonds to cities operating under special charters granted by
the State, and containing a population of three thousand or more in(2)
legislative
habitants, as follows. This authority is of course subject to the foregoing provisions of the Constitution.
For the erection and construction of a city hall and the purchase of a
•
site for the same.
For the construction and extension of water works or the purchase
of the same, and for constructing sewers, and for the improvement and
maintenance of the same.
For the erection, construction and completion of school buildings and
the purchase of school sites.
For the purchase of sites for engine houses, for fire engines and other
equipments of the flre department, and for tne construction of engine
bouses.
For the purchase of sites for police stations and for the oonstruotlOD
of buildings thereon for the use of the police department.
For the construction of viaducts, bridges, and for repairs of the same.
For the erection and construction of library and museum buildings
and the purchase of sites for the same.
For the establishment ol! public baths and hospitals and the purchase
of sites for the same.
For the purchase of lands for public parks and improvements thereof
and for the payment of purchase money and Interest thereon which
may be or become due for park lands already acquired or contracted
for.
i
For permanently Improving streets in such city, and for creating a
fund out of wlilch to advance the cost of repairs to sidewalks in anticipation of the collection of special assessments for such cost of repairs
by the Treasurer of such city.
For the construction or purchase of electric or gas light plants for
lighting streets and public buildings.
For refunding existing indebtedness.
The law further provides that bonds issued under this act shall
bear interest, payable annually or semi-annually, at a rate not exceeding 6 per cent per annum that the Common Council shall annually
levy a tax upon all the taxable property sufficient to pay the annual
Interest thereon, and to provide a sinMng fund each year equal to 5
per cent on the principal of said bonds that no bonds shall be issued
BO that the amount thereof, together with all the other indebtedness of
the city, shall exceed 5 per cent of the assessed valuation of the city
and also that the bonds skall show on their face the amount of indebtedness of the city issuing the same, the annual amount of the assessment
of the taxable property therein for the live years next preceding the
Issue, and the average amount thereof, and they shall not be sold for
less than their par value and accrued Interest.
No system could be devised better adapted for keeping municipal debt
at a minimum than the foregoing amendment establishes.

' The total taxes levied in
the above table includes the amounts
raised not only for State purposes, but also all taxes raised by the
various minor divisions of the State. The tax rate, however, is for
State purposes, and besides the tax of $1-60, as given above, for 1902
there was a tax of $1-23 for school and university purposes.
DEBT L M TAT ION.— Minnesota has protected the State from extravagant expenditures through restrictions which its Constitution put*
on every kind of debt making. That instrument fixes the Umit at $250,000 "for the purpose of defraying extraordinary expenditures;" and ait
amendment, ratified in 1879, extended this power to $250,000 additional " for erecting and completing buildings for the insane, a deaf
dumb and blind asylum, and State prison." Besides the foregoing, it is
also provided that the State credit shall not be loaned, «S:c. With regard
to the debt of municipalities there is but one section in the Constitution which relates to that subject, and that has reference to making
railroad debt.
FIRST, as to State indebtedness, the sections which treat of the BubJeot are in article 9, sections 5. 6, 7. 8 and 14.
Section 5. (Public debt may be contracted.) For the purpose of defraying extraordinary expenditures, the State may contract public
debts, but such debts sliall never, in the aggregate, exceed two hundred
and fifty tliousaud dollars; every such debt shall be authorized by law
for some single object, to be distinctly specified therein; and no such

situated in Douglas County. Most of the special street
and sewer bonds, issued at 6%, have been extended or exchanged for
58 due in 1908. Several suits have been instituted lecently which
involve the legality of some $600,000 or $700,000 special Improvement bonds. V. 73, p. 801, 1124, and V. 74, p. 110 and 590. These
bonds were still in litigation. Under date Feb. 18, 1903, the City
Attorney issued a circular letter putting forth at length the situation
as it now stands. The main features of this statement will be found
in V. 76, p. 770.

law shall take eflfect until it shall have been passed by the vote of twothirds of the members of each branch of the Legislature, to be recorded
by the yeas and nays on the journals of each House, respectively; and
every such law shall levy a tax, annually, sufficient to pay the annual
interest of such debt, and also a tax sutticient to pay the principal of
Buoh debt within ten years from the tlnal passage of such law, and shall
specially appropriate the proceeds of such taxes to the payment of such

shall have been made to the State, especially dedicated by the grant to
speciflo purposes; and in such cases the State shall devote thereto the
avails of such grants, and may pledge or appropriate the revenues derived from such works in aid of their completion.
Section 6.— (Public debt how contracted.) All debts authorized by the
preceding section shall be contracted by loan on State bonds of amounts
not less than Ave hundred dollars each, on interest, payable within ten
years .after the final passage of the law authorizing such debt; and such
bonds shall not be sold by the State under par. A correct registry of all
such bonds shaU be kept'by the Treasurer in numerical order, so as always to exhibit the number aud amount unpaid and to whom severally
made payable.
Sectiox 7.—The State shall never contract any public debt, unless in
time of war, to repel invasion or suppress insurrection, except in the
cases and in the manner provided in the tifth and sixth sections of this
article.
Section 8. (Appropriation of money received from loan or State
bonds.) The money arising from any loan made, or debt or liability contracted, shall be applied to the object specified in the act authorizing
such debt or liability, or to the repayment of such debt or liability, and
to no other purpose whatever.
Section 14. (Stale debt forpitblic buildings). For the purpose of
erecting and completing buildings for a hospital for the insane, a deaf,
dumb and blinrt asylum, aud State prison, the Legislature may by law
increase the pubUo debt of the State to an amount not exceeding two
hundred aud fifty thousand dollars, in addition to the public debt already heretofore autliorized by the Constitution, and for that purpose
may provide by law for issuing and negotiating the bonds of the State
and appropriate the money only for the purpose aforesaid; which
bonds shall be payable in not less than ten nor more than thirty years
from the date of the same, at the option of the State.
SECOy^D, as to cilj/, county or other inunicipality the only restriction
on the debt-making power in the Constitution is the following, found in
article 9, section 15.
Section 14:.— ( Municipal debts in aid of railroads.) The Legislature shall not authorize any county, towuship, city or other municipal
corporation to issue bonds or to become indebted in any manner to aid
in the construction or equipment of any or all railroads to an amount
that shall exceed five per ceutum of the value of the taxable property
within such county, township, city, or other municipal corporation;
the amount of such taxable property to be ascertained and determined
by the last assessment of said property made for the purpose of State
and county taxation previous to the incurring of such indebtedness.
The foregoing was adopted as an amendment in 1879. Before its
adoption the section read so as to authorize municipal corporations to
issue bonds in aid of raUroads to ten per cent of valuation. Hence the
amendment consisted in simply changing the word ten and making it
five.
This is all the Constitution contains with reference to the debts of
municipalities. The Legislature, however, has made some general provisions governing bond issues, which will be found in the State and
City Supplement for October, 1899, and in previous numbers of that
publication.
Constitutional Amendments,— Four amendments to the State constitution were adopted at the November, 1902 eleotiou. Two of these
relate to taxation, a third to pohool fund loans and the fourth to a
State road and bridge fund. One of the tax amendments increases the
amount of taxes to be collected by the State upon railroad property
from 3% to 4,% upon the gross earnini^s of lines operated in the State;
the other tax measure provides for a tax on real estate mortgages,
franchises, incomes of corporations and individuals, etc.

TAX RATE.—The State tax (per $1,000) for 1903 was $400; this
includes general State tax, $3*50, and special tax. 50 cents, for educational purposes.
DEBT LIMITATION.— Iowa's Constitution
debt, both State debt and municipal debt.
FIRST, as to Slate debt, the limitation
restricts the creating of
made la not absolute, for It
permits other debt if authorized by some law for some single specified
work. But this permission is very safely guarded— (1) the law must
provide for the collection of a direct annual tax sutHclent to pay the
Interest regularly and discharge the debt in twenty years; and (2) the
law cannot take effect until it has been submitted to the people at a
general election, and has received a majority of the votes oast. AU the
debt provisions relating to the State we give below.
Article 7, Section 1. [Limitation of State indebtedness.] The credit
of the State shall not in any manner be given or lo.iued to, or in aid of,
any individual, association, or corporation; and the State shall never
assume, or become responsible for, the debts or liabilities of any individual, associatio!! or corporation, unless incurred in time of war for the
benotlt of the State.
Section 2. [Same.] The State may contract debts to supply casual
deficits or failures in revenues, or to meet expenses otherwise provided
for; but the aggrogato amount of sucli debts, direct and coutlngeut,
whether contracted by virtue of one or more acts of the General Assembly or at diflTereut periods of time, shall never exceed the sum of two
hundred and fifty thousand dollars; and the money arising from the
creation of such debts shall be applied to tlie purpose for which It was
obtained, or to repay the debts so contracted, ana to no other purpose
whatever.
Section 4. [For what other purposes State mau contract debt.] In
addition to the above limited power to contract oobts. the State may
contract debts to repel invasion, suppress insurrection, or defend the
state in war; but the money arising from the debta so contracted shall
ai>plled for the purpose for which it was raised, or to repay such
debts, and to no other purpose whatever.
Section 5. [Other debts to be authorized.]—Except the debts hereinbefore specified in this article, no debt shall be hereafter contracted by or
on behalf of this State, unless such debt shall be authorized by some law
for some single work or object, to be distinctly specified therein and
such law shall impose and provide for the collection of a direct annual
tax sufficient to pay the interest on such debt as it falls due, and also
to pay and discharge the principal of such debt within twenty years
from the time of coutracting thereof; but no such law shall take eff"6ct
until at a general election it shall have been submitted to the people,
and have received a majority of all the votes cast for and against it at
such election and all money raised by authority of such law shall be
applied only to the specific object therein stated, or to the payment of
the debt created thereby and such law shall be published in at least one
newspaper in each county, if one is published therein, throughout the
State, for three months preceding the election at which it is submitted
to the people.
Article VIII, Section 3. [State not to be a stockholder.]—The State
shall not become a stockholder in any corporation, nor shall it assume
or pay the debt or liability of any corporation, unless incurred in time
of war for the benefit of the State.
There oau be but little fear that a State or city will ever create debt In
any larger amount than it can easily pay where the law, as in the above
case, requires a tax to be levied at the time of its creation sutflcient to
pay the interest annually and the principal when due.
SECOND, as to municipal indebtedness, the limit is fixed absolutely
in the Constitution. The provisions covering the subject are as follows;
Article VIII, Section 4. [Corporation not to be a stockholder.] No
political or municipal corporation shall become a stockholder in any
banking coriioration, directly or indirectly.
Article XI, Section 3. [To what amount county may become indebted.
No county or other political or municipal corporation shall be allowed
any manner, or for any purpose, to an amount in
to become indebted
the aggregate exceeding five per centum on the value of the taxable
property within such county or corporation ^to be ascertained by the
fast State and county tax list previous to the incurring of such
indebtedness. [The Legislature, however, has fixed a lower limit, as
stated below.]
The above (section 3 of article XI) covers cities, counties, towns and
every other kind of political or municipal corporation. The Supreme
Court of Iowa has decided that even a school district is such a corporation and subject to same Umit. The Legislature of 1900 passed a bUl
(approved April 6, 1900,) fixing the limit of indebtedness of counties
or other political or municipal corporations at only 114 per cent of the
actual value of property in cities or towns as returned by the last tax
This change was made because, under a revision of the
list.
Revenue Law \?hich went into effect in 1898, property is now appraised
for taxation on a much higher basis than formerly. We present this
biU in full.
Section l.—That Section thirteen hundred and six (1306) of the Code
be and Is hereby repealed, and the following enacted in licU thereof.
Sec. 2.—" No county or other political or municipal corporation,
including cities acting under special charters, shall be allowed to
become indebted, in any manner or for any purpose, to an amount in
the aggregate exceeding one and one-fourth per centum on the actual
value of the property within such county or corporation, to be ascertained by the last State and county tax list previous to the inoarring
of such indebtedness."
Sec. 3.— This Act being deemed of Immediate importance shall be in
force from and after its publication in the Des Moines " Register" and
the Des Moines " Leader," newspapers published in Des Moines, Iowa.

Note. Under the charter the Municipal Assembly must appropriate
$1,200,000 annually with which to pay debt and the interest thereon.
That portion of each annual appropriation not required for the payment of the interest constitutes the sinking fund for redemption of
the debt existing April 7, 1890, and bonds issued in renewal thereof.
On the basis of renewing the city's bonded debt at 4 per cent, the debt

exempt the county indebtedness of $6,111,000 and the water works
indebtertne^s or $5,S08.000 in determining the limit of Indebtedness.
Under these amendments, we are advisfdi^the city can increase its
bonded indebtedness by about $8,000,000, provided It is authorized to
do so by two thirds of the voters at an election held for that purpose.

DEBT LIMITATION, Kansas has by its Constitution given the
State power to contract public debts for the purpose of defraying extraordinary expenses and making public improvements in an amount not
to exceed $1,000,000. This limit, however, has two exceptions. First,
the next section provides that it may be exceeded if the proposed law
for creating such debt shall be submitted to a vote of the electors, and if
the proposed law be ratified by a majority of the votes cast. Second,
Che section following provides that the State may borrow money to
repel Invasion, &c. We give these sections in full and also the subsequent one which forbids the State being a party to internal improvements.
Debts, annual fax; proceeds. For the purpose of defraying extraordinary expenses and making public improvements, the State may contract
public debts; but such debts shall never, in the aggregate, exceed one
million dollars, e.xcei)t as hereinafter provided. Every such debt shall
be authorized by law for some purpose specified therein, and the vote of
a majority of all the members elected to each House, to be taken by the
yeas and nays, shall be necessary to the passage of such law; and every
Buch law shall provide for levying an annual tax sufHcient to pay the
anuual interest of such debt and the principal thereof when it shall
become due; and shall specifically appropriate the proceeds of such
taxes to the payment of such principal and interest; and such appropriation shall not be repealed nor the taxes postponed or diminished until
the interest and principal of such debt shall have been wholly paid.
Other debts. No debt shall be contracted by the State except as herein provided, unless the proposed law for creating such debt shall first be
eulnnltted to a direct vote of the electors of the State at some general
election; and if such proposed law shall be ratified by a majority of all
the votes oast at such general election, then it shall be the duty of the
Legislature next after such election to enact such law and create such
debt, subject to aU the provisions and restrictions provided in the preceding section of this article.
iSorrow money. The State may borrow money to repel invasion,
suppress insurrection or defend the State in time of war; but the
money thus raised shall be applied exclusively to the object for which
the loan was authorized, or to the repayment of the debt thereby
created.
Internal improvements.
The State
shall
never be a party in carrying
Ml any works of internal improvement.
MUNICIPAL indebtedness is not restricted by the Constitution at aU.
The only provision for the regulation of such matters contained in that
Instrument is the following, requiring the Legislature to make general
laws and restricting the power to make debt in the case of cities, towns
and
villages.
Oities. Provision shall be

INCIDENTS IN STATE ORGANIZATION, ETC.-See State and
City Supplement of April, 1893, page 124, for the facts and statementB
heretofore given under this head.
HISTORY OF DEBT.—When Kansas was admitted into the Union
as a State (in 1861) it had a bonded debt of $150,000. The Constitution
of 1859 limited the debt-making power to one million dollars (witli
certain restrictions and exceptions), as more fully described below. In
1866 the bonded debt was $630,775, of which the State owned $28,650.
In 1878 the total bonded debt was $1,181,975, of which the State
owned $713,600. The bonded debt July 1. 1902, was $632,000, all
held by State funds. The Permanent School Fand on July 1, 1902^
aggregated $6,814,351 52.

Helena is the county seat of Lewis
Clark County. On Jan. 18,
1900, this city voted to extend its limit of indebtedness to 5% over
and above the 3% of the assessed valuation as provided for in the
State Constitution for the purpose of procuring a water supply. A
temporary injunction prevented the issuance of bonds for the purpose
(V. 74, p, 166). The U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals, Id is reported, has
decided in favor of city.
See V. 76, p 553. for explanation as to temporary non-iayment of
interest due late in 1902 and early in 1903.

The floating debt mentioned above represents outstanding warrants issued subsequent to Sept. 12, 1893, and accrued interest thereon
at 7 per cent, which have been declared illegal by the State Supreme
Court. The Union Bank <fe Trust Co. of Helena has been appointed
agent for the city to exchange illegal 3 per cent bonds for the warrants. The city intends to preserve the warrants, to be returned
to the original owners in the event that the city is enjoined from paying the interest on these bonds. Up to August 1, 1902, about $75,000
•
bonds had been so issued.

DEBT LIMITATION.— Idaho
has placed limits In its Constitution
upon the debt-making power both of the State and its municipalities.
Though the provisions have a conservative tendency, they are not quite
as strict as the Constitutional limitations of most of the other new
Htates. For a digest of the laws respecting debt limitation in Idaho,
eee State and Citt Supplement of April, 1895, pages 138 and 139.

In 1870-80 increase was 17,611, or 117-41 percent, and in 1880-90
cent. In 1890 1900 the increase was 77.387, or
91-7 per cent, a part of which is due to the fact that the 900 aggregate
embraces Indians and whites on Indian reservations not heretofore
included. Such persons numbered 4,163 in 1890 and 3,420 in 1880,
which amounts should be added to the totals for those years in making

* Under the Revenue Law of 1901 property is required to be assessed at its full value. This accounts for the large increase in values
ID 1901. a-< property was assessed at a very much lower basis in
5-5623

5-60
earlier years.
In addition to the tax rate as above there is a poll tax of $1-00 per
vHpiTa. lo 1880 and prior to that date this poll tax was 50 cents per
capita.
LIMITATION.— Colorado's Constitutional provisions with
reference to the creation of debt are of considerable length, and strike
one at first as quite elaborate. After a brief study of the provisions
heir irood <iiiaUties stand out so plainly as whoUy to disarm criticism.
No State has placed the debt-making power on a more reasonable basis.
All the rcirulations with reference to public indebtedness are found in
1
article
of the Constitution. See State and City Supplement of
April. \ri9:K t'Htres 140 and 141.

Territorial bond issues have been refunded.
Under Senate Bill No. 15, passed by the State Legislature In 1901,
school districts are permitted to incur indebtedness up to 4 per cent
of the assessed valuation of property. Previously the limit was 2 per

Is carefuUy regulated in the Constitution of California.
The section
relating to the bonding of counties, cities, towns, etc., was altered by
constitutional amendment adopted February 25, 1891. Nothing In
explanation of the provisions needs to be said, as the sections of the
Constitution treating of this subject are all very plain and comprehensive; they will be found in the State and City Supplement of April,
1895, page 146.
A new law regulating Indebtedness for public Improvements was
enacted in 1901. Section 4 of this law establishes a limit for such
Indebtedness, and is as follows

This city is in Santa Cruz County. The city has been in litigation orer
its 5 per cent refunding bonds (issued April 16, 1894), which it
refused to pay, they having been purloined, but on Sept. 28, 1898,
the United States Circuit Court held the entire issue of $360,000 bonds
Invalid as between the city of Santa Cruz and purchasers of the bonds
having notice of the facts consliiiiting their invalidity, but dtXso\iQ\A
that the city was estopped by recitals contained in the bonds, from
denying their validity in the case of innocent purchasers for value.
Upon this ground the court rendered judgment against the city for the
amount of principal and interest due upon such bonds as were purchased
upon the faith of recitals contained therein and without notice or
knowledge of their invalidity. The municipality received no consideration whatever for these bonds. The United States Circuit Court of
Appeals, however, on Deo. 5, 1899, declared that the entire issue was
void, on the ground that there was a flaw in the bonds themselves
which the purchasers should have investigated before buying. V. 69.
p. 1260. The U. S. Supreme Court on Feb. 24, 1902, reversed the latter
deci.^ion and the case was sent back with instructions (V. 74, p. 590),
and the U. S. * Ircuit Court of Appeals in Sept., 1902, thereupon gave
V. 75. p. 694. A compromise was effected in
Its decision accordingly.
March, 1903, the details of which will be found in V. 76, p. 770. The
city was in litigation also over $225,000 5 per cent water bonds issued
Jan. 16. 1889. but in this case, having received value for the bonds, has
been disposed to pay maturing principal and interest, notwithstanding
The suits brought by tax-payers to resist
their supposed invalidity.
the payment of interest have been dismissed by the Court, and the
bonds find coupons are being paid as they fall due.

DEBT LIMITATION.—Like so many of the younger States, Washington has taken a conservative position with respect to State and
municipal indebtedness. The provisions of the Constitution with reference to creating debt are so comprehensive and plain that It is necessary to do no more than copy the sections relating to the subject.
FIRST,
there are three sections: the first
limits the debt, the second names exceptions to the limit and the third
provides the method in which additional debt may be created. These
sections are all found in article 8, and were given in the State and
Crrv Supplement of April, 1895; page 152.
SECOND, Counties, Cities, Towns cfc. are more rigorously guarded.
The whole system as to municipalities is found in section 6 of article 8,
though section 7 is also important, as it forbids counties, cities Ac.
giving money or loaning credit to any corporation &c. Sections 6 and
7 will be found on page 152 of the April, 1895, Supplement.

The Virginia Legislature re-enacted the Funding Act of Feb. 20, 1892,
and uinder its provisions all old Virginia bonds were allowed to be
brought in and funded into new Centiu-y bonds, upon the same terms
as the Olcott settlement, provided they were presented for funding
prior to December 31,1896. By the Act of January 25,1898, however, another opportunity to fund the bonds was given. By this Act
bondholders had until July 1, 1898, to come in and accept the terms,
and power was given the Commissioners of the Sinking Fund to extend
the time until Dec. 31, 1898. By Act of Feb. 3, 1900, the time was
again extended, this time to July 1, 1900, with authority to still
further extend it to Jan. 1, 1901. And on Feb. 16, 1901, the Legislature in extra session again extended the time until June 30,1901.
The time was once more extended until Jan. 1, 1903, by the Legislature on Apr. 2, 1902, authority being granted to still further extend
the date until Jan. 1, 1904, and the date has been so extended by the
Commissioners of the Sinking Fund. Bonds funded under any amend"
dment or extension to the Act of Feb. 20, 1892, carry interest from the
semi-annual period next preceding the date of ftmding. Under the old
law coupon bonds once converted into registered certificates were not
reconvertlble into coupon bonds, but under the Acts of 1882 and 1892
coupon and registered bonds are interchangeable.
VIRGINIA CERTIFICATES.-In the settlement of 1871 it
was assumed that West Virginia should provide for one-third the principal and Interest of the then existing debt, that Is $15,239,370
out of the total debt of $45,718,112. To represent, therefore, West Virginia's share of bonds funded "deferred certificates" were issued. All
efforts, however, to induce West Virginia to take recognition of these
certificates have thus far been unavailing. In 1885 the holders of about
$8,000,000 certificates united for the purpose of obtaining a compromise, and deposited their holdings with the Farmers' Loan & Trust Company, which gave its trust receipts therefor. This attempt came to
nothing, and in 1890 Messrs. C. Satterthwaite & Sons, of No. 30 Throgmorton Street, London, E. C, started another movement to bring about
a settlement.
An adjustment company, with the Mercantile Trust & Deposit Company of Baltimore at its head, was formed late in 1893 for the purpose
of making an attempt at the settlement of the West Virginia certificates
See Chronicle, Vol. 57, page 819; Vol. 58, pages 51, 314 and 444.
In August, 1898, another movement was started, this time under the
leadership of Messrs. Brown Bros. & Co., with the same oV)ject in view,
and that movement continues actively in progress. The plan provided
for ascertaining the exact amount of the old Virginia debt with which
West Virginia is justly chargeable (subject to certain limitations), and
then compromising that amount at the same percentage at which Virginia compromised the two-thirds of the original Virginia debt, namely
60 per cent for principal and 30^4 per cent for Interest. (See the edi-
WEST
torial article in
State and City Scpplement for
April, 1899.)
The
Legislature of Virginia in March, 1900, passed a bill authorizing the
State Debt Commission to take such action and institute such proceedings as may be deemed proper to protect the State'.s interests and
to bring about a settlement with West Virginia. (V. 70, p. 494.) The
original plan has been somewhat amended to meet present requirements; see digest in V. 76, p. 770; wherein will also be found
the names of the members of the Advisory Board.

After about three- fourths of the old Virginia bonds had been surrendered, and "deferred certificates" been given to represent West
Virginia's one third, under the acts of 1871 and 1879, these acts were

The remaining bonds were refunded under other laws.

CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS.-The Legislature of 1901
proposed several amendments to the State Constitution, which provide for the election of the Secretary of State, the State Treasurer and
the State C'omptroUer by a direct vote of the people, instead of their
being appointed by the Legislature. Another amendment limits
indebteduess of cities, counties, towns, taxing districts and municipalities to 10 per cent (including existing indebtedness) of the
average of the assessments of the 10 years previous to the incurring
of the debt. These resolutions must flrsl be acted upon by the next
General Assembly before being submitted to the people.

with the bondholders on such terms as the city felt able to make. The
courts, however, held that the Taxing District was liable for the entire
debt of the city, and a compromise at 50 per cent was then arranged
for under the act of March 1883. This act was amended in 1885. The
old debt has been all retired and Interest payments on the new Issues
are promptly made. In 1891, by an act of the Legislature, this dis-
was again incorporated as a city.

At an election on Aug. 8, 1901, it was decided to subscribe for
$1,000,000 stock of the Nashville & Clarksville RR. One-half of the
bonds to be issued for this purpose will be turned over when the road
hasbeenbuilt to a certain point and the remaining $500,00i> when
road is finally completed and in operation.
Suic was instituted in
the Federal ( ourt to prevent the oitv from issuing any bonds to the
Nashville & Clarksville RR. (See V. 74, p. 1320) and the case is now in
the courts. The Legislature of 1903, it is proper to add, passed an Act
ratifying the action of ihe city looking to ttte issuance of these bonds,
but the plaintliTs attorneys do not regard the Act as legal.

Legislature meets biennially in odd years on the Wednesday after the first Monday in January, and there is no limit to

STATE DEBT.—The old debt, excepting
suclias Is not recognized,
has mostly been funded under the funding laws of 1879, the time prescribed for the exchange having been extended to January 1, 1905.
These laws provided for the issue of (1) consolidated 4 p. o. bonds due
In 1910 to fund old ante-war bonds at 40 per cent of face value, "New"
railroad bonds recognized as valid at 25 per cent, and bonds of 1866
and 1868 at 15 per cent, nothing being given for overdue coupons and
<2) for new consolidated 6 per cent bonds due in 1919, for which the
North Carolina RR. construction bonds were made exchangeable at par,
holders of construction bonds abating $240 of overdue interest on
each $1,000 bond. The new bonds, both 4s and 6s, carry tax-receivable
coupons, and are exempt from "all State, county or corporate taxation
or assessment, direct or indirect, general or special."
An amendment to the State Constitution passed by the Legislature
In 1879 and ratified by popular vote in 1880, forbids the General
Assembly to pav or recognize as valid the following bonds Special tax
bonds $11,366,000; bonds to Chatham RR., 1868, $1,030,000, and to
Willlamston & Tarboro RR., $150,000; Penitentiary bonds of 1868
$44,000. The special tax bonds were in 3 classes, class 1 bearing the
coupon of April 1869 and since; class 2 bearing the coupon of Oct.
1869 class 3 bearing the coupon of April, 1870 Holders of the special
tax bonds brought suit to establish the validity of their bonds and
the case was decided in favor of the State.

To the foregoing we should add the further fact that the State does
not have to raise money for the interest on the six per cent bonds for the
reason that the lease of the North Carolina Railroad provides a fund
for the payment of the Interest thereon, and the State holds three
millions in the stock of the road, which if sold would much more than
pay the principal. In addition the State holds other stocks and
6623 bonds to the value of $1,269,600; total, $4,269,300.

HISTORY OF DEBT.— For history of South Carolina's debt from
1794 to 1893 see the State and City Supplement of April, 1893,
pages 163 and 164. Attorney-General Griggs, of the United States,
tn July, 1900, brought suit agamst the State of South Carolina to recover on $125,000 principal and $123,750 over-due interest on bonds
Issued in 1856 to complete the State House. Congress, however, by
the Sundry Civil Act of June 6, 1900, repealed the Act of 1899 under
which the suit was brought, and the action was discontinued. See V.
71, p. 875. The bonds matured in 1881, and principal and interest
were never paid. See V. 71, p. 147. They came into the possession of
the United States, but South Carolina refuses to recognize tliem. The
State debt on January 1, 1903, consisted of the following items

DEBT LIMITATION.—The Constitution of the 8tate of Georgia
adopted in 1877, limits municipal indebtedness In this State to 7 per
cent on the amount of taxable property. Augusta's debt at that time
was in excess of that limitation and still is. Therefore under no clroumstances can the debt of the city be increased. No bonds can be
lawfully Issued except for the purpose of retiring old issues as they
fall due. No obligation of this city has ever been repudiated or scaled.
CITY PROPERTY.—The city owns its water works, valued in 1903
at $1,000,000, the Augusta Canal, valued at $2,000,000, and $300,000
In other good real estate within city limits. The net annual income from water rents (canal and water works) was reported In 1902
as $100,420 and increases yearly from new industries and new
extensions of water mains. This income more than meets the Interest
($84,565 in 1902) on the bonaed debt. The city also receives $11,600
yearly for certain railway franchises.
ASSESSED VALUATION.—The city's assessed valuation and tax
rate have been as given below. In 1897 the assessed valuation of aU
real estate was reduced 10 per cent and in 1898 and in 1900 5 per cent
was deducted. Assessment is said to be about 80 p. 0. of actual value.

DEBT AND TAX LIMITATIONS.-A
revised Constitution
was
adopted at the election held Nov. 11, 1901, and became effective Nov.
28, 1901. The new instrument makes radical changes in relation to
debt and taxation, an outline of which was furnished in an editorial
In our State and Citt Supplement of October, 1901. We have only
room
to indicate a few of its features.
State Debt.— Under Section 213 (Article XI) the State is prohibited
from creating any new debt, except to repel invasion or suppress in-
surrection. This prohibition, however, does not apply in the case of
bonds to refund old issues or temporary loans to meet deflciences, the
latter, though, being limited to $300,000. Section 214 limits taxation
tor State purposes to slxty-flve one hundredths of one per cent.
The sections relating to taxation of counties and municipalities are
also given in Article XI., being numbered 215, 216 and 219. Theyare
very lengthy and will be found In lull In the editorial above referred to.
Limit of Indebtedness.- The debt incurring power of counties and
municipalities in the new Constitution are contained in Sections 222
to 226 inclusive, forming part of Article XII.
Bond Issues to be Voted.— Under Section 222
all
bonds proposed
to be issued under general laws must first be authorized by a mar
jorlty vote of the qualified voters of the county, city, town, village or
other political snb-division desiring to issue such securities. There are
exceptions to this, however. See the section In full in the above-mentioned editorial.
Counties are limited by Section 224 to 3^2 per cent of the assessed
valuation of property. This limitation does not aflect any debt existing at the time of the adoption of the constitution in excess of 313 per
cent, either created or authorized by existing laws to be created.
Such counties already Indebted in excess of 3^2 per cent are permitted
to incur an additional debt of 1^ per cent of the assessed valuation.
Counties are allowed to fund or relund any existing indebtedness.
Cities, Towns, etc., having a population of less than 6,000 are limited
to 5 per cent of the assdpsed value of property, with an additional 3
per cent for water works, gas or electric light plants or sewerage.
This limitation does not affect any debt now authorized by law to be
created or any temporary loans to be paid within one year, made in
anticipation of the collection of taxes, not exceeding one-fourth of the
annual revenues of such city or town.
CiTiKS AND Towns of 6,000 or over inhabitants, also GADSDEN.
ENSLEY,
and
DECATUR, are limited in their debt^
making powers to 7 per cent of the assessed valuation. The followingdescribed classes of indebtedness are not to be considered in flgurlng
the debt limit: temporary loans, to be paid within one year, made
in anticipation of the coUeetlon of taxes, and not exceeding onefourth of the general revenues; bonds or other obligations already
issued, or which may hereafter be issued for the purpose of acquiring,
NEW
DECATUR
providing or constructing school houses, water- works and sewers; and
obligations incurred and bonds issued for street or sidewalk improvements, where the cost of the same, in whole or in part, is to be assessed
against the property abut'ing said improvements; provided, that the
proceeds of all obligations Issued as herein provided, in excess of said
7 per cent, shall not be used for any purpose other than that for which
said obligations were issued. Nothing contained in this Article is to
prevent the funding or refunding of exlstinsr indebtedness. Nor la
the Section to apply to the cities of SHEFFIELD and TUSCUMBIA.
Section 226 provides that no city, town or village whose present indebtedness exceeds the limitation unposed by tnis Constitution shall be
allowed to become indebted in any further amount, except as otherwise
provided In this Constitution, until such Indebtedness shall be reduced
within such limit; provided, however, that nothing herein contained
thaU prevent any municipality except the city of GADSDEN from
issuing bonds already authorized by law; provided, further, this Section shall not apply to the cities of SHEFFIELD and TUSCUMBIA.

State Constitution was passed permitting an increase of one-half per
cent in the tax rate, the proceeds to be applied exclusively to the
payment of interest on the city's bonds and for the creation of a sulking fund. On Aug. 13, 1895, the old bondholders by arrangement
with the city agreed for a term of Ave years to defer their claim for
one-half of the interest coupons. The whole amount withheld, however, together with 5 per cent interest thereon, was paid on Aug. 13,
1900, and the original contract with the bondholders thus fully complied with. Since the latter date all interest has been paid regularly
and in full.— See Chkonicle, Vol. 69, p. 194.

issued to fund certain obligations of charitable institutions. No interest has been paid on them since January, 1885, but provision has
been made to pay the principal of the bonds at not more than 50 p. c.
See Chronicle, Vol. 6»^, p. 987.
In September, 1889, it was discovered that a number of bonds had
been fraudulently issued. Part of these were subsequently recovered,
but $373,600 consols so issued ($303,600 being consols of 1874 and
$70,000 Constitutional bonds) are still outstanding. The State considers them "null and void," and they are therefore not included in the
amount outstanding above. There are also $421,935 fraudulently
issued baby bonds outstanding.
There are moreover old bonds not recognized, and hence not fundable,
amounting to $3,953,000. These include New Orleans Mobile & Texas
8 per cent bonds, endorsed, $875,000; 8 per cent State bonds issued
to said road, $2,500,000; 8 per cent bonds issued to the N. O. MobUe
& Chattanooga RR. $70,000; 730 per cent bonds issued to the Mississippi & Mexican Gulf Ship Canal Co. $260,000, etc., etc.
ASSESSED VALUATION—The assessed valuation is estimated at
about 37 per cent of the actual value. The State tax (per $1,000) for

New Orleans is coextensive with the parish of Orleans. An Admitted as a State (Act of June 15, 1836)
amendment
to the Louisiana Constitution authorizing the city to
refund its debt at a lower tate of interest was adopted in 1892, and
the city has issued 4 per cent 50-year bonds to the amouut
of $10,000,000, thus enabling it to pay all its maturing loaus
and all those upon which it had option. The amendment provides that
the interest ta.\: collected in excess of requirements shall be divided
between city schools and city improvements. The new Louisiana
Constitution, in effect May 12, 1898, contlrmed these arrangements.
On June 6, 1899, the city voted a special tax of 2 mills for water,
eewer and drainage purposes, intended to provide for an issue of from
12 to 16 miUious bonds. As this required an amendment to the State
Constitution, the Legislature, in special session, passed a bill for its
submission to a vote of the people of the State. At this election the
amendment was approved and the bonds were awarded in Dec, 1900.
These bonds, however, will not be issued in one lump sum, but will
be put out as the improvement progresses. Up to July 1, 1902.
$2,400,000 had been issued. In March, 1903, the validity of this Act
•was tested in tlie Civil District Court and affirmed; V. 76, p 770.
Case will probably be taken to the Supreme Court.

HISTORY OF DEBT.— For history of the Arkansas State debt see
State and City Supplement of April, 1894, page 173. By Act of
Congress approved AprU29, 1898. a compronuse was effected between
the United States and the State. In accordance with the terms of this
settlement the United States authorities on May 27, 1H98, delivered to
the State Arkansas bonds and coupons amounting to $1,505,160, and
carrying besides a large sum of overdue interest. This operation
wijied out the entire debt of the United States against the State
except $160,000, which has since been paid.
REFUNDING —Under the Legislative Act of 1899 the entire debt
has been refunded by an issue of 3 per cent 30-year bonds, denominations $500 and $1,000, except $15,000 in bonds of 1869 and 1870,
and the estimated interest thereon, amounting to $24,300, which have
not been presented for refunding. All valid 6 per cent funding bonds
were called for payment Deo. 1, 1901, those not presented up to that
time being now null and void.
The total amount of bonds outstanding Oct. 1, 1902, was $1,256,000, of which $1,113,500 are held by the State's School Fund; $102,50.) by the permanent endowment fund of the University of Arkansas
and $35,000 by individual parties.

PREMIUM BONDS.—The premium bonds ($20 each) receive no
interest till drawn by lot for payment, and then they receive principal
with simple interest from July 15, 1875. They also get a premium 11
they happen to draw a prize, 2,352 prizes aggregating $100,000 being
distributed yearly among the drawn bonds. From 1892 to 1895 inclusive 21,000 bonds (par value $420,000) were paid each year, in
twoinstahnents of 10,500 bonds each, on January 15 and July 15 since
1895 bonds to the number of 10,000 are paid semi-aimually—
20,000 bonds annually. There are two drawings to determine the
bonds payable July 15 in each year, and they take place January 31
and Ax>ril 15 next preceding. The drawings to determine the bonds
payable January 15 take place July 31 and October 15.
The drawings to determine which bonds shall receive prizes (ranging
from $20 to $5,000) occur just before the bonds are paid. Drawn
premium bonde are receivable by the city for all dues, licenses, taxes
and debts of any description at their face value and interest.

MUNICIPAL AND COUNTY BOND LA W.-A State law approveC
in 1893 has done much to widen the market for new Texas muiiicipal
loans. At present before any bond can be issued by a municipality or
county it must receive the certificate ot the Attorney- General that it
It must then be registered in the office of the
is a lawful obligation.
State Comptroller, and when the bond is so issued its validity cannot
except on the grounds of fraud or forgery. The text of
be questioned
the law will be found in the State and City Supplement of AprU,
1895, page 178.
Where the fact is known to us we have marked with a star (*) in
the returns below the issues put out prior to the enactment of tke
above law.
A law went Into eflFect Aug. 26, 1899, compelling counties and incorporated towns and cities to submit propositions for the issuance of
bonds [all except " funding bonds issued or to be issued of any valid
outstanding bonds of said county, town or city;" also excepting bond
Issues for less than $2,000, when " issued for the purpose of repairing
buildings or structures, for the building of which bonds are allowed t«
be issued,"] to a vote of the qualified taxpayers before the issue can
be submitted to the Attorney- General for approval as required by the
law of 1893—V. 69, p. 509.
POPULATION,—The population of Texas has been as follows:
1900
3,048,710 1880
1,591,749 1860
604,215
2,235,523 1870
1890
818,579 1850
212,592
Of the total population in 1900, 620,722 were blacks, which compares
with 492,837 in 1890, 393,384 in 1880, 253,475 in 1870, 182,931 in
1860 and 58,558 In 1850. It will be observed that the proportion of
the colored race has greatly diminished, the ratio for 1900 being only
20-4 per cent, against 2204 per cent in 1890, 24*71 per cent in 1880
and larger percentages in previous decades.

This is the capital of the State and the county seat of Travis County.
$52,500 of General Revenuebonds issued prior to 1890 are in litigation.
See Chronicle, Vol. 69, p. 91. The Jan., 1900, Interest on the water
and light bonds was not paid when due— see Chbonicle, V. 70, p. 46.
On June 4 the City Council, however, authorized an appropriation for
the payment of overdue interest for the quarters ending January 1
and April 1, 1900— see Cuboniole V. 71, p. 45. Since April, 1900,
no Interest has been paid. The Austin dam, water-works, electric
light and power houses, for the building of which the water and light
bonds below were issued, were destroyed by the disastrous floods that
visited Texas in April, 1900.— V. 70, p. 755. An adjustment of this
debt on the basis of $1,492,000 new bonds bearing 3% for 5 years,
4% for the next 10 years and 5% for the flnal 15 years has been
reached between the city and the bondholders' committee. For details
Bee V. 73, p. 459. Up to Jan. 1, 1903, $1,185,000 had been refunded,
being portions of all isauea except the 6 per cent revenue bonds.
Some of the holders of the old issues who refused to agree to the adjustment brought suit to compel payment of interest on their bonds, and
March 5, 1902, were accorded a decision in their favor. V. 74, p. 590.

Tills city is the county seat of Tarrant County. The validity of some
If
of the city bonds was the sul)Ject of litigation, but recent decisions
of the Court of CIn-II Appeals conarms their legality. See Vol. 66, p.
775, Vol. 67. D. 1072, and Vol. 76, p. 223. The city failed to pay Its Interest due in September and November, 1899 (see V. 60, p. 711), but In
January, 1900, paid all arrears. In December, 1900, an appeal was
made to holders of the bonds to consent to refunding Ihedebt into new
48 and a resolution to aid in the process was passed by the Oitv
Council. See Chronicle V. 72, p. 100. The Logislature of 1901 authorized $1,883,000 4 p. c. 40-yoar bonds to take up the old issues, and
tip to March 6, 1903, $120,000 had been so refunded. Ou Marcli 14,
1903, however, an arrangement was made whereby all past-duo Interest was to be paid In full. V. 76, p. 667.

Galveston, the leading seaport of Texas, is the county seat of Galveston County, Texas. The adjustment of its bonded debt growing
out of default occasioned by the hurricane of Sept. 8, 1900, has progressed satisfactorily, and has been accepted by a large numbe : of
bondholders. On the bonds whioli have come Into the compromise interest is being paid promptly. The compromise provides for interest
to be paid at the rate of 2 -9 per cent per annum for live years, which
was formally recommended to the bondholders by a committee of thfiir
number, of which the Hon. Chas. S. Fairchild was Chairman. Both the
city and county are working Iq concert to devis-1 the absolute protection to the city and port, and a sea wall costing a million and a half
is being constructed by the county, bonds havintr been issued and
practically all taken locally or by local interests. Tne work is now In
progress and should be completed within twelve to eighteen months.
The city then contemplates raising the site by filling In streets and
private property in an issue of bonds to be specially c ecured by donation from the State of Texas, which has already been made, covering a
period of fifteen years. In M^rch, 1903, a decision was rendered declaring void that portion of the city charter providing for 5 commissioners, three of which appointed by the Governor; V. 76, p. 770.
Legislature will probably amend the charter so that all five Commissioners will be elected by the people.
