WEALTH, TAXATION AND POPULATION IN THE UNITED STATES. The Bureau of the Census in the Department of Commerce and Labor at Washington has made public preliminary figures from its special report on Wealth, Debt and Taxation authorized by Congress in the Act establishing the permanent Census office. This report, when completed, will consist of four parts: I. Valuation of National Wealth; II. Public Indebtedness; III. Taxation and Revenue Systems; IV. Governmental Expenditures and Revenues. In the issue of our State and City Section for Nov. 24 1906 we discussed at length the statistics regarding public indebtedness, a Census bulletin devoted to that feature of the investigation having been issued at that time. In the present article we shall deal with the other three parts of the inquiry. It should be distinctly understood, however, that in these cases we have no separate bulletins giving results in detail and permitting examination of Census work. In this particular nothing is as yet available except the socalled “advanceoutline” of the special report referred to. There being no details, it is not possible to make a study of the method by which the Census results have been reached or to comment on the same. Our purpose is mainly to put the figures on record in this publication where they can be readily referred to and to forestall inquiries concerning the subject. First, as to the matter of the so-called National Wealth. some the pleasingTnformation that the wealth of the country now exceeds one hundred thousand million dollars, the precise figures given being $107,104,192,410. We shall not discuss the question whether there may not be some duplications involved in this stupendous total, for we are without knowledge on that point, but it is beyond dispute that the real estate speculation and the high level of prices prevailing throughout the industrial world have contributed in no small degree to augment the total. No doubt, too, our protective tariff system has played an im¬ portant part in keeping prices high, at least in the mercantile markets. help reflecting that with the grand total the National Wealth placed at such enormous One cannot Owing to the contemplated removal of our offices in the near future, and the preliminary work necessary we No. 2181. 1907.

This is true even in the case of the wealth of the much-discussed John D. Rockefeller, whose possessions, measured in dollars, have recently been authentically declared not to exceed 350 million dollars. The amount might be three times this sum, and even then it would consti¬ tute less than 1% of the total of $107,104,192,410. The figures are stated to relate to the year 1904. An estimate is also given of our wealth in 1900, which is put at $88,517,306,775. In 1890 the total figures, was our reported at only $65,037,091,197.

It will be ob¬ served that for 1870 the figures are stated both in currency values and in gold values, gold at that time having been at an average premium of 25% above the value of paper money. Of course population has gained enormously in recent years, and this, obviously, is an important item in the growth in wealth.

The next largest item is “railroads and their equipment,” which is given as $11,244,752,000 inde¬ pendent of the street railways, which are valued at $2,219,966,000. This makes nearly 13Yi thousand millions for the steam and street roads combined, a total considerably exceeding 12% of the estimated wealth of the country. The matter is of peculiar interest at the time of the present agitation against the railroads, in showing what a large interest we are put¬ ting in jeopardy when we attack that department of our industries of the Census volume which is to with “Taxation and Revenue Systems” a summary has been prepared showing assessed values of property Census period from 1850 to 1904 inclusive. We print this statement herewith. at each TOTAL ASSESSED VALUATION—1850 TO 1904. 1850 $6,024,666,909 1860 12,084,560,005 1870 (currency basis) -14,178,980,732 1870 (gold basis) 11,405,606,474 1880 17,139,903,495 1890 ...25,473,173,418 1902 35,338,316,833 Considering the foregoing in connection with the on National Wealth, reference is made to the fact that while the assessed valuation of property subject to ad valorem taxation has increased at each period from 1850 to the present time, the increase, has kept pace with the increase in the National Wealth. Though the fact that tax levies tend to increase faster than population has often been noted by students of public taxation, it is claimed that the relation between not tax levies and wealth has not been served. the tax Accordingly, calculations as generally ob¬ made to show rates per $100 of estimated true value for 1SS0, 1890 and 1902 TAXES as IN 1902 1890 1880 are follows.

From the outline of the fourth part of the report devoted to Governmental Expenditures and Revenues, it appears that in the fiscal period covered report the revenue penditures, stated in other terms, the net indebted¬ of the country was slightly less at the close than at the beginning of the year. While no details are given, it is stated that in the case of the National Government, States and Territories, and Counties, the receipts exceeded the payments, and at the close of the year these governments had smaller net indebtedness than at the beginning. On the other hand, in the case of smaller civil divisions, and especially the large cities, the situation was reversed, and the payments for expenditures exceeded the revenue receipts, causing or, ness an increase in net indebtedness. THE MUNICIPAL BOND SALES OF 1906. Several years ago, beginning with the bond transac¬ tions of 1901, we commenced publishing a detailed analysis of the municipal bond sales for the calendar year. In continuance of that practice we furnish at the end of this article a very elaborate and compre¬ hensive statement dealing with the municipal bond disposals for the twelve months of 1906—their distri¬ bution among the different States and geographical divisions, the purposes for which issued, the rates of interest they bear, &c. The statement occupies a full page. The usefulness of such compilations, especially now that the record extends back several deal years, will In the part figures above somewhat greater in amount than payments for ex¬ by the receipts of the National, State and be obvious to everyone. It may be a surprise to hear, in view of the stringency market during the year, that the aggre¬ gate of the bond sales for 1906 exceeds the correspond¬ ing aggregate for 1905. Altogether, the disposals in the late year (excluding temporary loans, which have no place in such a record) reached $201,743,346 as against $1S3,0S0,023 in 1905. But it appears on examination that of the 1906 output $23,884,232 was for refunding as against only $16,701,430 for refunding in 1905, leaving the net-addition $177,S59,114 in 1906 against $166,378,593 in 1905—an increase of only $11,500,000. It should be noted, furthermore, that New York City alone is responsible for more than the whole of this increase, having put out $57,052,175 of new bonds in 1906 as against $41,210,934 in 1905. In treating of the state of the municipal bond market during 1906 it is well to remember that conditions were unfavorable, not so much because of the inability to find buyers for such obligations as because buyers insisted on getting higher rates of interest. New York City itself furnishes a typical and a striking instance of the truth of this statement. The city had to abandon 3^2% issues because these could no longer be floated at. par; it accordingly raised its rate of interest to 4%. At the higher figure it succeeded in placing more bonds than in the previous year. But the cost of the money to it kept almost steadily rising throughout 1906. At the February sale of $20,000,000 4s, the interest basis, calculated on the price received, was 3.65%; at the July sale of $11,029,100 the interest basis was 3.94%; the $4,500,000 bonds floated in November were negotiated on a basis of 3.91%, and the $9,800,000 placed in December wrent at from 3.93 to 3.9S%. Altogether, the city’s public disposals were $45,329,100, besides which $11,723,075 were sold of the money Apr. STATE AND CITY SECTION. 1907.] to the city's own sinking funds, giving the total of $57,052,175. In 1905, the public disposals were $37,500,000 and the sinking fund takings $3,710,934. Cincinnati also put out a much larger amount of bonds in 1906, its new issues in that year having aggre¬ gated $9,302,132 against only $3,662,077 in 1905. Chicago and its sanitary and park districts placed $5,500,000 in 1906 against only $3,500,000 in 1905. Pittsburgh emitted $2,500,000 against $2,000,000. On the other hand, Boston placed only $5,162,350 against $8,584,700; Los Angeles $287,500 against $1,700,000; and San Francisco $324,000 against $2,573,800. The latter city, as is known, was visited by an earthquake. It offered bonds repeatedly the latter part of the year, but as they bore no more than 3%% interest, did not succeed in disposing of any of them; the $324,000 placed were sold early in the year. Philadelphia emitted no bonds in either year and St. Louis placed none in 1906 against $1,000,000 in 1905. The most noteworthy characteristic of the year, as already intimated, was the further advance in interest rates. The tendency towards higher rates was noted in previous years, but it remained for 1906 to show the movement in its most pronounced form. Not only are 3% issues disappearing from the list but 3%s are also fast vanishing. Out of the $201,743,346 bonds put out in 1906, only $16,730,531 were 3s and $19,419,650 were 3J^s, making together but little over 36 millions, or 17.92% of the whole. Furthermore, of the 3s, $11,723,075 represent takings by the New York City sinking funds, which are not governed by money market conditions. The predominant rate of interest in municipal bonds now is 4%. Of the $201,743,346 bonds issued in 1906, no less than $120,130,280 bore that rate, being 59.55% of the whole. Five years before, in 1901, the 4s formed only IS.45% of the total. On the other hand, the 3s and the 3}4s then aggregated 65.54% of the whole, as against but 17.92% in 1906. Nothing could illustrate more strik¬ ingly the change which has occurred in this respect than these comparisons.

In 1903 con¬ ditions in the financial world had to a considerable ex¬ tent interfered with the placing of new issues and as a consequence many municipalities deferred reduced or their borrowings, with the result that the offerings in 1904 were correspondingly increased. Then, also, several large cities, in particular New York, were in the market in 1904 as borrowers for unusual amounts, in part as a result of the difficulty in placing bonds in 1903. The greater part of the bond issues is still supplied by the North Atlantic tier of States, comprising the New England States, together with New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. In 1906, out of the $201,743,346 bonds placed, $106,695,964 came from that group. The North Central Division, which comprises Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minne¬ sota, Iowa, Missouri, the two Dakotas and Nebraska and Kansas, stands next in importance, being account¬ able for $55,429,660 of new bonds. The other parts of the country furnish relatively small contributions, and the South Atlantic group especially is to be cred¬ ited with a very small amount—only $6,642,880. j 1906. 1 $ North Atlantic Div__ 100,095,904 Northern Central Dlv. 55,429,660 | 1905. 1904.

A footnote to that table gives the leading items that go to make up the “Miscellaneous” column. New York City bonds when offered for sale are now all described (excepting in the case of rapid transit bonds, water bonds and assessment bonds) as being “for various municipal purposes,” these purposes not being defined.

In other words, while the grand total of the sales for 1906 was $201,743,346, and for 1905 $183,080,023, for 1904 the amount was $250,754,946.^.

We rigidly exclude floating debt obligations and everything of a temporary nature, and we also take great care to avoid duplications or the inclusion of loans that do not belong in the footings. As the best explanation of our reasons for excluding floating debt obligations, we may refer to the case of this city, which during 1906 issued no less than $145,982,244 of temporary obligations in anticipation of taxes, but redeemed the greater part of these same obligations before the close of the year, or at least retired $136,484,974 of such obligations during the twelve months. We also omit from our totals bond issues made by Canadian municipalities and by the island possessions of the United States. In order that the reader may know what the grand aggregate of the sales for the twelve months would be with all these various items included, we will say that the total in that event would be over 408 million dollars. Actual municipal bond sales for the twelve months within the territorial limits of the United States were, we have seen, $201,743,346; the temporary loans reached $175,209,910; sales by Canadian municipalities were $15,241,520; Philippine and Manila bonds, $4,750,000 general fund bonds of New York City, $11,750,000, giving a grand total of $408,694,776.

J UNITED STATES DEBT United The ences States Debt 9 and Its History, following is a statement of the debt of the United States past and present. To add to its usefulness we give refer¬ authorizing each of the issues of bonds outstanding to-day, and likewise, so far as we deem it needful, to the laws 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 July 1 of each fiscal year. To conform to that feature and yet furnish information through which any reader can always have the data for a correct exhibit of the debt situation at any past or future day, and make an accurate com¬ parison with previous years, we present, first, the details as they stood at the close of the last fiscal year ending June 30 1906; second, the changes in those details since June 30 1900 down to Apr. 1 1907; third, the items of interest-bearing debt, &c.f at the beginning of each fiscal year since'July 1 1878; 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. business on INTEREST-BEARING DEBT OUTSTANDING JUNE 30 1906.

Prior to 1902 this tax was $1 per $1,000. , Ape. 1907. VERMONT—CITIES AND TOWNS I DEBT tion or LIMITATIONS.—There appears to be nothing In the Constitu¬ in the Statutes of Vermont providing for 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 public character. Railroad *ubscriptions by towns are authorized by Section 3102, Chapter 141, of the Revised Statutes of 1894 the section being as follows. SECTION 3102. A town may aid in the construction of a railroad or- 17 (7.) But no savings bank, savings institution or trust company shall hold, by way of Investment or as security for loans, more than ten per cent of the capital stock of any one bank, nor Invest more than ten per cent of its deposits, nor more than thirty-five thousand dollars In the capital stock of any one bank; and no such Investments shall be made In the capital stock of any suen banks, owned or loaned upon, to exceed In the aggregate onefourth of the deposits of any savings bank, savings Institution or trust com¬ pany. The amount of loan which can be made to one person or &c corporation, Is restricted by the next section, and we give It In full. It Is as follows: SECTION 4102.

The words “trust company” In this chapter shall be up by taking 1% of that amount, according to Section 360, Chapter 26, of construed to include savings banks and trust companies. A savings bank, savings Institution or trust company may deposit on call In banks, the Revised Statutes of 1894, which Is as follows: “All real and personal banking associations or trust companies In this State, or In the cities of New “estate shall, except as otherwise provided, be set In the list at 1% of Its York, Boston, Chicago, Albany, Philadelphia or Concord, New Hampshire, “value In money on the first day of April of the year of Its appraisal.” or In any other legal designated depository under the laws of the United Following Section 3102, above cited, which authorizes subscriptions In States, or In national banks In the cities of St. Paul, Minneapolis and Kan¬ sas City, with or without Interest, as may be agreed upon, sums not ex¬ aid of railroads, are other sections describing the method in which these ceeding In the aggregate twenty per cent of the assets of such savings bank, subscriptions must be made, by calling a town meeting, voting, &c., &c. savings Institution or trust company.

The Sections which grant these ^ powers are Sections 3111 to 3120, Inclusive, Chapter 141 of the Revised CITIES, COUNTIES AND TOWNS IN THE , Statutes of 1894, Section 3111 Is as follows: SECTION notes, bonds 3111. A town which has outstanding and unpaid orders, 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 such 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. A town, city or Incorporated village may Issue bonds to an amount not exceeding three times its grand list, for the purpose of purchasing road-making apparatus and for building permanent highways within the limits of such town, city or village. Sections 3119 and 3120 provide for the method of Issuing such bonds. The only other section which we need quote Is Section 3083 of Chapter 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.

Statutes general and special have, however, been passed on this subject with respect to Cities and Towns. All of the general provisions are found Incorporated In Chapter 27 of the Revised Statutes, edition of Jan. 1 1902. The Important sections of this chapter are cited below: SECTION 1. Cities and towns shall not Incur debts, except In the man¬ ner of voting and within the limitations as to amount and time of payment prescribed in this chapter. SECTION 2. Ther Indebtedness of a city or town under the provisions tution ol Massachusetts 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 water scrip, issued by a provided, and town under special statutes for the Indebtedness excepted by general or special statutes of a lire district, and all other debts shall be excluded. *For meaning of "net indebtedness" see bottom of this page. SECTION 3. A citg shall not become Indebted In an amount exceeding two and one-lialf per cent on the average of the assessors’ valuations of the taxable property therein for the three preceding years, the valuation of each year being lirst reduced, by the amount of all abatements allowed thereon previous to the last day of December In the year preceding said assessment. SECTION 4. A town shall not become Indebted In an amount exceeding three per cent on the last preceding valuation for the assessment of taxes, of the taxable property therein. SECTION 5. A city or town which establishes, purchases reconstructs, extends or enlarges a gas or electric-lighting plant within Its limits may Incur debt outside the debt limit prescribed In this chapter in payment therefpr to an amount not exceeding, In a town, live per cent, and. In a city, not exceeding two and one-half per cent, of the last preceding State valuation. SECTION 6. Cities and towns may by a majority vote Incur debts for temporary loans in anticipation of the taxes of the municipal year In which such debts are Incurred and expressly made payable therefrom by such vote. Such loans shall be payable within one year after the date of their Incurrence, and shall not be reckoned in determining the authorized limit of Indebtedness. [Notes may be non-interest bearing and sold at a dis¬ count. See Chapter 153 Laws of 1904.] SECTION 7. Cities and towns may by a majority vote incur debts for temporary loans for the payment of any land damages or any proportion of the general expense of altering a crossing which they are required primarily to pay under the provisions of sections one hundred anc forty-nine to one hundred and sixty, Inclusive, of chapter one hundred and eleven. Such loans shall not be reckoned In determining the authorized limit of Indebtedness, and when any money so paid is repaid, It shall be Imme¬ diately applied to the discharge of the loan. The sections referred to above in chapter 111 provide for the abolition of Grade Crossings. SECTION 8. Debts other than those mentioned In the two preceding sections shall be incurred only by a vote of two-thirds of the voters present and voting at a town meeting, or of two-thirds of all the members of each branch of the city council, taken by yeas and nays, and subject to the ap¬ proval or disapproval of the mayor. SECTION 9. A city or town which has Incurred a debt within the limitations as to amount and time of payment prescribed by this chapter may Issue bonds, notes or scrip therefor, properly denominated on the face thereof, signed by its treasurer and. If Issued by a city, countersigned by Its mayor, or If issued by a town, countersigned by a majority of its selectment, with Interest payable semi-annually at such rate as It deems proper, and may sell said bonds, notes or scrip, not less than par, at public or private sale, or may use the same In payment of such debts. SECTION 10. If a city or town votes to Issue bonds, notes, scrip or other certlllcates of Indebtedness In accordance with the provisions of this chapter, the officers authorized to negotiate the same may. In the name of such city or town, make a temporary loan for a period of not more than one year In anticipation of the money to be derived from the sale of such bonds, notes, scrip or other certificates of Indebtedness; but the time within which such securities shall become due and payable shall not be extended by reason of the making of such temporary loan beyond the time llxed in the vote authorizing the Issue of such bonds, notes, scrip or other certificates of Indebtedness. [See note under Section 6.] SECTION 11. Debts Incurred for supplying the Inhabitants with water, for acquiring land for public playgrounds [n and parks] under the pro¬ visions of chapter twenty-eight, for a municipal lighting plant under the provisions of chapter thirty-four, or In constructing sewers, shall be payable within thirty years; debts Incurred In building school houses and other public buildings and in procuring land therefor, within twenty years; and all other debts mentioned In section 8, within ten years, or by the city of Boston within twenty years. a Added to law by Chapter 375, Acts of 1903. [Chapter 28. referred to above, provides for public parks, playgrounds, Ac., and under it any city or town (except Boston) may Incur Indebtedness to meet expense of acquiring land for public playgrounds, outside the debt exceeding one-half of one per cent of Its assessed valuation. Chapter 34 provides for the manufacture and distribution of gas and electricity.] limit to an amount not SECTION 12. The Interest on all debts shall annually be raised by taxation. If a debt Is payable at a period exceeding ten years, the city or town shall, and in all other cases may, at the time of contracting the same, establish a sinking fund to be used for no other purpose than the payment of such debt, and shall annually raise by taxation and contribute thereto an amount sufficient with Its accumulations to extinguish the debt at ma¬ turity: and If 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 thereof, and shall set It apart for a sinking fund until an amount principal has been raised, sufficient,with Its accumulations, to extinguish the debt at maturity; and shall, In the year 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 pro¬ portionate payments as will extinguish the same at maturity, and there¬ upon such annual proportion shall, without further vote, be assessed under the provisions of Section 37 of Chapter 12 such debt until Is extinguished. Sections 14 to 19, Inclusive, and sections 22, 24 and 25, relate to the elec¬ tion and duties of the Commissioners of the Sinking Fund and various other matters we cannot enter upon SECTION 21. A here. city which at a meeting of Its voters held for that pur¬ 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 of the City Council, contract debts and Issue bonds for the purposes and to the extent author¬ ized by such Act, In the manner provided In, and subject to the provisions of, the preceding sections. SECTION 23. No city or town shall, for the purpose of subscribing In aid of a railroad corporation.

According to Section granting them unlimited 1931, Chapter 121 of the j t Revised Statutes of 1902, “when any town shall have made appropriations incurred debts, or shall hereafter make appropriations or Incur debts exceeding $10,000, It may Issue bonds, either registered or with coupons attached, or other obligations, payable at such times and at such annual rate of Interest not exceeding 6%, payable annually or semi-annually, as it shall determine,” &c. Cities have had no such general authority conferred upon them. or TAX EXEMPTION.—Exemption from Taxation has been accorded by 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 2315, Chapter 144 of the Revised Statutes of 1902 (latter part 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 & Willlmantlc Railroad Company, tHe Shepaug Valley Railroad Company, the Connecticut Valley Railroad Co., tHe Connecticut Central Railroad Company, or either of them.” All railroads which are In whole or In part In the State are taxed by the State under Section 2424, Chapter 147 of the Revised Statutes, so 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 Revised Statutes of 1902, Section 2315, Chapter 144.

One of the departures In the 1903 amendments was that street railway bonds were then included for the first time, and the list was still further enlarged In 1905. We give below the law as it Is found In Sections 3428 and 3429, General Statutes of Con¬ necticut, Revision of 1902, with the later amendments Included.

Street Railway Bonds.—As stated above, street railway bonds are in¬ cluded for the lirst time by chapter 171, Laws of 1903. This Act was amended In 1905 and now reads as follows: Savings banks may Invest their deposits and surplus In the first mort¬ gage bonds of the Hartford Street Railway Company and the Fair Haven & Westvllle Railroad Company, and In all bonds of the Consolidated Railway Company and In the Connecticut Railway & Lighting Company. [Under ruling of the State Attorney General the 30-year 5% gold bonds of the Meriden Horse Railroad Co. assumed by the Consolidated Railway Co. are legal investments for Connecticut savings banks. See V. 82, p. 292.] SECTION 3429—When Mortgages Mag Be 3.fadc in Adjoining States.— Any savings bank.in the towns of Putnam, Brooklyn and Killlngly may loan on land located in the County of Providence in the State of Rhode Island; any savings bank.in the town of Ridgefield may loan on land lo¬ cated In the County of Westchester in the State of New York; any savings bank In the town of Enfield or In the town of Stafford may .loan on land located in the County of Hampden in the State of Massachusetts; and any savings bank.in the town of Stonlngton may loan on land located in the County of Washington In the .State of Rhode Island. The subjoined sections, 3431, 3432, 3433 and 3434, provide certain restrictions with reference to loans—section 3431 restricting loans on Mortgage Security to Manufacturing Corporations and Ecclesiastical Societies; section 3432 restricting amount of loans to one party on personal security: section 3433 forbidding loans on single names. SECTION 3431—Loans to Corporations and Societies Regulated.—NO loan shall be made by any savings bank.to any corporation or association or ecclesiastical society, secured by mortgage upon its property, unless the same shall be accompanied by the individual guaranty of some responsible party or parties, or by other collateral security of value equal to the amount of the sum loaned. The directors or trustees of any such bank consenting to any loan contrary to the provisions of this section shall be held Individu¬ ally responsible for any loss to the full extent of such loan. SECTION 3432—Loans Restricted.—No savings bank having more than twenty-five thousand dollars of deposits shall loan on personal security [Vol. lxxxiv. to any one person, company, or interest, more than three per cent of its at the time of making such loan. SECTION 3433—Obligations of One Person or Firm Not to Be Taken.— No savings bank shall buy, or lend any money upon, any obligation on which only one person or firm shall be holden, without taking additional security for the same equivalent to the guaranty or indorsement of some other responsible party. Besides the ordinary safeguards which are In all savings bank laws, there deposits Is one of no little importance that ought to aid materially in We refer to the provision below. preventing in¬ cautious loans. SECTION 3434—Ibciird of Names of Directors Consenting to Loans.— When any loan or investment Is made by any savings bank, the names of the directors or trustees consenting thereto shall be entered upon the records of such bank, and said record shall be open at all times to the inspection of the corporators and auditors of such bank and the Bank Commissioner and be prtrnu facie evidence of the truth of the statements therein con¬ tained. TRUST FUNDS—HOW LOANED OR INVESTED—We find in Section Chapter 22 of tlie Revised Statutes the following liberal provisions providing that trust funds may be loaned or invested in the same securities savings banks are authorized to invest in. SEC. 495.—Trust funds, unless it is otherwise provided in the Instru¬ ment creating the trust, may be loaned on the security of mortgages on unencumbered real estate in this State double in value the amount loaned, or may be invested in such mortgages or in the bonds or loans of this State, or of any town, city or borough of this State, or in any bonds, stocks or other securities which the savings banks in this State are, or may be, authorized by law to Invest in, or may be deposited in savings banks incorporated by this State. 254 of CITIES, COUNTIES AND TOWNS IN THE STATE OF CONNECTICUT. NOTE.—For debts of minor civil divisions not found among 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 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 oil the assessed valuation (which is called the "Grand List of each town”) is levied the tax for State purposes as well 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, in recent years several town's 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 consoli¬ dated, as have also the city and town of New Britain and the city and town of Bridgeport. 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 deterndned for the town is used by both the city and the borough In levying taxes, the city, for instance, putting a tax of its own on its share of the total grand list of the town. This tax is addi¬ tional 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 necessary to take into account the State, town, city and school district levies. In the statements which follow we give under one heading the town and city, wherever they bear the same name, for though distinct corporations, their debts are to a greater or less extent the debts of a single community. one AGGREGATE MUNICIPAL INDEBTEDNESS. The total indebtedness of all the towns, cities, boroughs and counties in the State was in 1904 532,520,460 61. In the following table we show the funded indebtedness, the lloating debt and the total Indebtedness of all the civil divisions of the State at quadrennial periods: Funded debt. 1904 1900 1896 1892 1888 1884 1880 1877 _ __ $26,906,859 22,142,993 19,749,667 16,023,832 15,569,818 14,655,903 15,388,375 14,437,742 ♦County debt ($344,500 in 1904) 05 58 08 46 67 75 69 93 Floating debt. $5,269,101 56 5,005,323 09 4,384,980 50 4,473,571 36 3,759,642 86 2,980,386 15 1,967,623 60 2,713,584 35 * Total debt. $32,520,460 61 27,624,827 42 24,581,066 20,627,058 19.392,804 17,636,289 17,355,999 17,151,327 55 48 89 91 29 28 divided into funded and floating debt, and therefore included only in total debt column.

HISTORY OF DECT.—The early historical details of New York’s State debt from 1817 to 1894 will be found in the “State and City Supplement” of April 1894, page 41. During a period of eleven years ending In 1893 the State debt was paid at tlie average of 51,900,000 per year, and practically wiped out. At the November eleetlon in 1895 the proposition to issue bonds of the State to the amount of 59,000,000, for the purpose of enlarging and Im¬ • proving the Erie Canal, the Champlain Canal and the Oswego Canal, was submitted to the voters and carried.

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 financial officer of the State affirmed that New Jersey had put out uo obligations of any kind or loaned its credit to any company. The Constitution of 1344 forbade the cre¬ ating of a State debt exceeding one hundred thousand dollars except for purposes of war. Ac. This exception, under which It was allowable to ex- 1199006534.. occasion Quite a debt was created at that ceed the huudred-thousand-dollar limit, became operative on the of the breaking out of our Civil War. The last of these war bonds was retired on Jan. 1 1902. TOTAL DEBT.—With the exception of $116,000 certiilcates Issued to the Commissioners of the Agricultural College 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: Nov. 1 1901 $71,000 Nov. 1 1895 $660,400 Nov. 1 1898 194,000 Nov. 1 1894__ 735.400 NOV. 1 1897 394,000 Nov. 1 1880.. 1,996,300 Nov. 1 1896 593,400 Nov. 1 1866 ...3,395,200 On Nov. 1 1906 the cash balance on hand In the State Fund was $2,084,891 39; this fund also held on the same date 1,887 shares (par value $188.700) of the joint stock of the Delaware & Raritan Canal and Camden & Amboy Railroad and Transportation companies The State School Fund on Nov. 1 1906 held securities to the amount of $4,427,048 58. ASSESSED VALUATION.—The assessed valuation for a series of years has been as below. Under new tax laws the assessment for 1906 will be made at supposed full value—a much higher basis than In former years. For this reason the valuations of New Jersey municipalities wherever re¬ ported for 1906 show large increases over the figures for 1905. $1,570,210,073 1899 $864,516,527 i 1886 1.153,682,961 1898 844,354,193 1884 1,055,379,023 1896 794.428,048 ■ 1882 1.008,062,612 1894 774,398,332 1880 531,851,849 1902 952,560,540 1892 742,759,082 1878 1901 918,118,741 1890 649,979,700 1876 603,676.953 ; 1874 891,237,286 1888. In addition to the above, valuation of railroad and canal property In 1900 was $219,656,014, ill 1902 $223,486,392, ill 1903 $227,195,115. ill 1904 $231,655,525, In 1903 $236,720,571 and in 1906 $194,532,469. No general tax is imposed in New Jersey, the State deriving its revenue from other period. , .. sources. LIMITATIONS.—The provisions of law limiting and regulating the debt-making power in New Jersey will be better understood and the information will be made more serviceable to the Investor if arranged In accordance witli 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 DEBT The third paragraph forbids a loan of the State’s forbids the creation of debt. These pro¬ subject Is disposed of. credit and the fourth paragraph visions are as follows: The credit of the State shall not be directly or 3. Indirectly loaned In any case. 4. 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 thouand dollars, except for purposes of war, or to repel invasion, or to suppress nsurrectlon, 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 as it falls due, and also to pay and discharge the principal of such debt or liability within thirty-five years from the time of the contract¬ ing thereof, and shall be irrepealable until such debt or liability and the in¬ terest thereon are fully paid and discharged; and no such law shall take elTect until It shall, at a general election, have been submitted to the people, and have received the sanction of a majority of all tlie 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 object stated therein, and to the payment of the debt thereby created. Tills section shall not be con¬ that has been, or may be, deposited with of the United States. According to the foregoing (4th paragraph), the power of the State for making debt is limited to $100,000, except (1) for purposes of war, &c., and (2) when the authorization is for some single object of work speciiied In the latter case the mode of procedure is, as will be seen, therein, &c. given In the same paragraph of the Constitution# (2) CITIES, CO UNTIES. TO BUYS, &c., are also restricted in the making of certain kinds of debt by Article I, paragraphs 19 and 20, of tlie Consti¬ tution. We give tiie paragraph In full. 19. No county, city, borough, town, township or village shall hereafter give any money or property, 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 donation of land or appropriation of money shall be made by the State or any municipal corporation to or for the use of any society, associa¬ tion or corporation whatever. It will be noted that the above prohibition relates to the giving of money, property or credit of cities, &e., to Individuals, associations, or corpora¬ tions, fee., and that tlie prohibition is absolute, forbidding the doing of such acts in any form, shape or manner. There, is one other restriction of the State Constitution, and that is found in Article l\\. Section VII., strued to refer to any money this State by the Government paragraph 11. which forbids the Legislature passing any special laws “regu¬ lating the internal a'fairs of towns and counties”-, in this and in all other cases in which according to the judgment of the Legislature general laws arc feasible, the Constitution states that general laws must lie provided. In complance with this last provision tlie Legislature lias passed many general laws covering bonded indebtedness of cities, towns. &e. They are so numerous they cannot be cited here. We would refer the reader to the Revised Statutes of New Jersey published in 1896 under the heading “Municipal Bonds,’’ pages 693 to 716 both inclusive; and also to the same heading ("Municipal Bonds”) pages 2220, &c. In 1904 a law was passed limiting the power of cities to issue bonds to 15 % of tlie taxable value of real and personal property. Tills Act also defines tlie method of issuing bonds. See V. 78, p. 1563, for bill in full. ATTORNEY-GENERAL TO APPROVE SCHOOL BONDS.—The school law passed at the special session of tlie Legislature convened Oct 15 1903 provides that whenever any bonds are authorized by townships, incor¬ porated town or borough school districts, tlie district clerk must transmit certliied copies of the record of proceedings to the State Attorney-General for his approval as to the legality of the same. TAX EXEMPTION.—Tiie State of New Jersey passed in 1893 a general from taxation tiie bonds, securities and other evi¬ dences of Indebtedness of municipal corporations; tiie provision covers not statute which exempts only the bonds, &c., to be hereafter issued, but those as well that have been heretofore Issued.

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 societies In Great Britain being at the time of a like character. The date of the organization was November 27 181G, and the bank was opened for business Dec. 2 1816. The oldest ledger of the company goes back to the time of opening, and shows a de¬ posit on that day (December 2 18J6» of five dollars. The company was not Incorporated until February 20 1819. The second savings institution In the State, however, did not come Into existence until 1847. In J889 a genera] law facilitating the incorporation of savings banks was-passed by the Legislature. Still, the report of the Banking Department shows that In November 1906 the total number of savings banks within the State was only ten. The aggregate deposits of these banks at that date was $151 ,246,468. 'The provisions of the special charters are all liberal as to investments. A law passed in 1880, and a supplement of the same passed In J889, au¬ thorizing the extension lor twenty years of special charters, contains the ollowing. —Philadelphia Is, “provided also, that * * no • Savings Institution or Savings Bank capital stock, renewing or extending its charter, corporate rights and franchises, under the provisions of this Ad, shall thereafter be allowed the privileges of a bank of discount, nor be allowed to loan any money re¬ ceived on deposit, t&A/X first mortgage or lieu upon /cal estate within this commonwealth. upon the bonds or securities of the United States or of State, or this upon county, city, borough, township oi school bonds of any county, city, borough, township or school district within this common- having ureaitn. no or About as t&tute ystd and valid securUies. on any “good and valid security” appears to confer discretion upon the managere as could be expressed In a any oilier Authority to loan broad IfliJi a *' 'j of the Commonwealth of principal.

Furthermore, by the fifth sub-division, 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 companies.

In addition many special laws found their way on to the statute books, nominally general In their scope but really so worded as to apply to only one city. In June 1902, however, the State. Supreme Court handed down several decisions declaring such laws special legislation and therefore unconstitutional. The decisions were considered to be of such broad ap¬ plication that the Governor called an extra session of the Legislature for the purpose of framing a new general municipal code. The extra session convened Aug. 25 1902 and after a session of nearly two months passed a new “municipal code”—a document loo lengthy to quote in these columns.

I 1851, and was amended in 1881. there are explicit | . 4.335 provisions limiting the r contract 24,398 863 3,070 4,672 21',680 $1,597,560,087 1.543.000.000 1,313,433.644 1,39 4,808,242 1.360,445,139 ' power $0.90 1891 of both the State and Its municipalities to 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 Inva¬ sion. <Sec., can be contracted. The section In full Is subjoined. 9* INDIANA—CITIES AND TOWNS CREATTONOF 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 State debt; to 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, city, town or township, nor of any corporation whatever.” SECOND, tion seems as to municipalities, the provision contained in the Constitu¬ equally clear and emphatic, and, as will be found, lixe« to be the limit at 2% of the valuation. It Is Article 13 of that instrument (an amendment to the 1851 Constitution adopted March 14 1881) which relates to this subject, and we give the article in full below. 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% limit, for the construction of "free gravel, stone or other macadamized roads.” Several such laws were*passed at the 1899 session of the Legisla¬ Cox, Treas., Ill Ind., the Supreme But In the case of Strleb vs. Court of Indiana held that gravel road bonds are not properly indebtedness of the county—hence do not come within the inhibition of Section 13 of the Constitution. (See editorial In "State and City Supplement” for October ture. 1899, page 3.) THIRD, counties (but 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: COrXTIES 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 purpose of taking stock in any such company; nor shall the General Assembly ever on behalf of tlie 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, Consequently the Legislature was at liberty to author¬ subscribe to the stock of railroads, as it did by a general law only to counties. ize cities to passed in 1809, granting the power to subscribe to the stock of running into or through any city or near its corporate limits. of any railroad Other laws somewhat similar character have been a passed at other dates. We no¬ law, too (Section 5377, Burns’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 authority to issue such tice Note.—For reports not found in alphabetical order among the .‘Additional Statements” at the end of this State. ALLEN COUNTY. County COUNTIES apparently restricted by statute to .a lower than the Constitutional limit of 2% in the matter of creating certain kinds of debt. For Instance, Section 7834 of Burns’s Annotated Statutes, 1901, 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 exceed¬ ing 1% on assessed valuation and Issue bonds therefor, provided that no second or subsequent loan shall be made or authorized so long as any are former loan made under the provisions of the Act shall remain unpaid. From Section 7920 it appears, moreover, that whenever the ayyreyate in¬ debtedness, funded or otherwise, of any county having a voting population of over 20,000 amounts to or exceeds 1%, it is not lawful to increase such Indebtedness in form except only by temporary loans in anticipation of the revenue of the then current fiscal year and not exceed¬ any ing two-thirds of the manner or amount of the county tax duplicate of the preceding year. Limit of 1% may be exceeded in counties for funding purposes in certain Indebtedness In 1879 exceeded 1% (see Burns’s Revised Statutes, 1901, Section 7918); also for temporary loans (see Burns’s Revised Statutes, 1901, Section 7920). where the aggregate Also (if the laws that have been passed are constitutional), the limit of 2% may be exceeded for the purpose of making gravel roads (see above), the Supreme Court having decided that gravel road bonds are not properly an indebtedness of the county. By statute the limit for such bonds (Sec¬ tion 0910) is 4 %. 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% on valuation. But we have not the space to set out here the or the details of the other legislation applicable to cities of larger and smaller population, and covering specific purposes, such as water-works, &c. details, BILL LEGALIZING GRAVEL 1901 passed a bill (Chapter 130) ROAD BONDS.—The Legislature in 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 FRO.M T AX ATION.—1The Legislature of 1903 passed a law (Chap. 17!). Laws of 1903) exempting from taxation all bonds, notes, •See., hereafter Issued by State or municipal corporations. The section follows: SECTION 1. Be It enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Indiana, That ail bonds, notes and other evidences of Indebtedness here¬ after Issued by the State of Indiana or by municipal corporations within the State upon which the said State or the said municipal corporations pay interest shall be exempt from taxation. The above Act became effective April 23 1903.

See Vol. 70, p. 242. Springfield a The matter of the amount of bonds that might be issued t-n the basis of the debt limitations given has been complicated in late years by changes In tile method of assessing property. A letter of the State Auditor in V. 74. p. 741, throws some light on these changes." LEGISLATURE meets biennially In odd years on the Wednesday after the lirst Monday In January, and there Is no limit to length of sessions. HISTORY OF DEBT.—The historical details of the State debt of Illinois from 1829 to 1870. when the debt was all paid off, will be found In the “State and City Supplement” of April 1801, page 01. WATER CERTIFICATES 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 municl. palities are understood to have taken advantage of this law. In the case of the City of Joliet, however, which attempted to issue bonds under the law, tlie matter was taken into the courts in a test suit, and an Injunction granted by Judge Dibell, who held that the 5"o limit could not be exceededYF. 73, p. 94. This decision was confirmed by Supreme Court. V.74. BONDED DEBT. —This State has no bonded debt, except $17,500 bonds which have ceased to draw Interest, but have not j et been surrendered for payment.

HISTORY OF DEBT.—The historical details of Michigan’s State debt up to 1894 will be found In the “State and City Supplement” of April 1894, In 1864 the State Treasurer page 98. reported the funded debt at $3,880,399 and $1,450,472 additional “trust fund debt.” The State has no bonded debt at present. The “trust fund debt” on June 30 1906 amounted to $6,779,805 12. The term “trust fund debt” Is, however, a misnomer. In explanation it should be said that the United States-Government set aside certain lands in the State of Michigan 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 specified rate of Interest must be annually figured on the total amount accumulated from said sales and be paid over to the educational institutions specified. The amount of Interest to be so paid is raised Clerk. Danville is the county seat. LOANS— When Due.

DEBT LIMITATION.—Michigan, as noted in our history of the State’s .State in January 1837, when the whole land was buoyant over Its Inflated enterprises carried 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 Legis¬ lature to go to work at once and make provision for "ascertaining the proper objects of Improvement In relation to roads, canals and navigable waters.” that tlie money might be raised and these Improvements might be prosecuted with as little delay as possible. That was the spirit which ruled and tlie condition which prevailed In In 1850 Michigan made and 1837. 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 d'ssimllar debt, started Its career as a “ from the one It was to supplant as it could well be. Nothing will Illustrate change in spirit and purpose more clearly than the following limitations respecting the creation of State indebtedness which were Inserted. These this sections are all found In Article 14 of the 1850 tution is still in force. Constitution, which Consti¬ 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. Tiie State may-contract debts to repel invasion, suppress insurrection or defend the State in time of war. The money arising from the contracting of sucli 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 persons, association or corporation. SECTION 7. No scrip, certificate or other evidence of State Indebted¬ ness shall be issued except for the redemption of stock or for such debts as are previously Issued 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 suoh work in the expenditure of grants except 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 they afford! Cities and villages, however, were left by the 1850 Instrument to the discretion of the Legislature In the matter of restrictions upon their bor¬ rowing power. The provision which relates to this subject Is found in Article 15, Section 13, and is as follows: SECTION 13. The Legislature shall provide for the incorporation and organization of cities and villages, and shall restrict their powers of taxa¬ tion, borrowing money, contracting debts and loaning their credit. In the exercise of the power granted by tills section the Legislature;has passed general laws governing the incorporation, taxation and bonding of cities and villages. The provisions, however, are too t feasible to summarize them here.

The bonded debt of the State, created for war purposes in 1861-63, has all been paid or else converted into certificates of Indebtedness, which are held by the various trust funds. The amounts due the several funds in March 1907 were as follows: Certificates of indebtedness.

Contracting debts. The Statefshall Tneverjcontract any public debt, except In the eases and manner herein provided. SECTION 6. Limitation on public debt. For the extraordinary expenditures, the State may contract purpose of defraying public debts (but such debts shall never in the aggregate exceed $100,000). Every such debt shall be authorized by law, for some purpose or purposes to be distinctly specified therein: and the vote of a majority of all the 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 sufficient to the annual interest of such debt, and the principal within five years from pay the passage of such law, and shall specially appropriate the proceeds of such taxes to the payment of such principal and interest, and such aporopriatlon shall not be repealed, nor the taxes be postponed, or diminished, until the principal and interest of such debt shall have been wholly paid. SECTION 7. State mag borrow money, when. The Legislature may*also 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. SECTION 9. Evidences of debt. No scrip, certificate or other evidence of State debt whatsoever shall be Issued, for such debts as are au¬ thorized by the sixth and seventh sections except 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. (2) CITIES, counties, towns, villages, Ac., were unrestricted except by legislative enactment until 1874. Since that amendment was adopted 5 % 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 will 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 in¬ terest and also sufficient 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 the w’ords: Taxes Raised. 148 Indebtedness.—Adding to Section 3, Article 11, “No county,city,town, village,’school district or other municipal corpora¬ tion shall be allowed to become Indebted in any manner or for any to any amount, including existing Indebtedness in the aggregate purpose, 5 % on the value of the taxable exceeding property therein, to be ascertained by the last assessment for State and county taxes previous to the $ None None 1 ,027,220 2,325,916 2,805,639 1 ,345,570 1 ,340,570 1 .995,070 1 ,372,713 891,660 662,058 of such indebtedness. Any county, city, town, village, school incurring district or municipal corporation incurring any indebtedness as aforesaid, shall other before at tne time of doing so 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 thereof within twenty years from the time of con¬ tracting the same.” or The Legislature from time to time has passed laws providing for the issuance of bonds for various specified purposes, but these laws are too given here. Such authority is of course •The large Increase In values for 1901 and since subject to the fore¬ that date is due to the going provisions of the Constitution. formation of a new State Board of Assessment by Chapter 237, Laws of 1901, , POPULATION of Wisconsin has been as which has construed the meaning follows: of the existing law to l>e a command to 1905 2,228,949 j 1880 assess at full value whereas former boards did 1,315,497 11850 not so construe the Act. 305,391 1900 2,069,042; 1870 1,054,67011840 DEBT LIMITATION.—The constitutional 30,945 18U0. provisions of Wisconsin re1,0SG,S80| 1860 775,S8l| j stricting debt-making are very rigorous, plain and comprehensive.

The main fea¬ tures of tills statement will be found In V. 76, p. 770. We are advised that net only has the Supreme Court of Wisconsin decided that the Improvement bonds are not a general city liability, being payable only from assessments on property benellted. but also that the Federal Court of the Western District of Wisconsin has also rendered a similar decision In the case of the White River Savings Bank vs. the City of Superior. A decision was handed down In the U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals In October 1904 in the suit of H. L. Jewell of Chicago to recover on some $15,090 of these assess¬ ment bonds. The Court held the city liable only for the amount of assess¬ ments collected, less Interest oaid on bonds. See V. 79, p. 2107. Refund¬ ing operations have been in progress, and up to Alarch 1 1907 5 and 6 % bonds to the amount of $750,334 had been exchanged for a like amount of 3 and 4s.

TOTAL DEBT.—On Jan. 1 1907 the total bonded debt of the State was $600,000, and of this amount $236,000 of State bonds was held in various Minnesota State funds. On the same date there was outstanding $2,850,000 certificates of Indebtedness, of which all but $10,000 was held in the State Funds. PERMANENT SCHOOL FUND.—The Investments of the school fund on Aug. 1 1906 amounted to $17,824,135. DEBT LIMITATION.—Minnesota has protected the State from extrava¬ expenditures through restrictions which its Constitution puts on every kind of debt-making. That instrument fixes the limit at $250,000 “for the purpose of defraying extraordinary expenditures”; and an amend¬ ment. 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, &e. 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 subject are in article ft, 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 shall never, in the aggregate, exceed two hundred and fifty thousand dollars; every such debt shall be authorized by lawr for some single object, to be distinctly specified therein; and no such law shall take effect until It shall have been passed by the vote of two-thirds of the members of each branch of the Legislature, to be recorded by the yeas and nays on the lournals of each House, respectively; and every such law shall levy a tax, annually, sufficient to pay the annual Interest on such debt, and also a tax sufficient to pay the principal of such debt within ten years from the final passage of such law. and shall specially appropriate the proceeds of such ^axes to the payment of such principal and interest; and such and taxes shall not be repealed, postponed or diminished untilappropriation the principal and Interest of such debt shall have been wholly paid. The State shall never contract any debts for works of internal improvement, or be a party In carrying on such works, except in cases where grants of land or other property shall have been made to the State, especially dedicated by the grant to specific purposes: and in such cases the State shall devote thereto the avails of such grants, and may pledge or appropriate the revenues de¬ rived 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 five 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.

Hall and Is levied e SINKING FUND.—It is provided by the city’s charter that In addition raising a tax sufficient to pay the Interest on all its bonds, the city shall levy a tax of one mill on each dollar of the assessed valuation to provide for the principal of the bonds when due. The maintenance of this sinking fund for the payment of the principal of the bonds Is “declared to be part of the contract with the holder of any bonds of the city that may hereafter be Is¬ sued and shall be kept Inviolate.’’ In accordance with this provision there was raised by taxation for the sinking fund in 1905 $168,264. The sinking fun i Is largely Invested in bonds of the city of Minneapolis. The city of Minneapolis is restricted in Its debt-making power to 5 % of the assessed valuation after deducting the sinking fund from the debt; ex¬ to ception Is made by Chapter 204, Laws of 1893. as amended by Chapter 128, Lawscof 1895, wherein It is provided that debt created for the purchase of water works shall be considered outside of the 5 % limit, and also that an ad¬ ditional 5 % debt may be created for certain purposes, provided the same be authorized by a two-thirds vote of the people.

TAX RATE.—The State tax (per $1,000) for 1905 Is $3 70; this Includes general State tax, $3 20, and special tax. 50 cents, for educational purposes for 1904 it was $3 50, made up of a general State tax of $3 00, and the special tax of 50 cents for educational purposes. DEBT LIMITATION.—Iowa’s Constitution debt, both State debt and municipal debt. FIRST, restricts the creating of municipal corporations at only 1 X % of the actual value of property therein returned by the last tax list. This change was made because, under a as revision of the Revenue Law which went Into effect In 1898, property Is now appraised for taxation on a much higher basis than formerly. In 1904 again in 1906 the Act was amended, the important sections now read¬ follows: Section 1. That section thirteen hundred and slx-b (1306-b) of the sup¬ plement to the code and chapter forty-three (43) of the Acts of the 30th General Assembly Ik* and the same are hereby repealed, and the following enacted In lieu thereof: “No county or other political or municipal corporation shall be allowed to become Indebted in any manner or for any purpose to an amount exceed¬ ing in the aggregate the amount of one and one-fourth per centum of the actual value of the taxable property within such county or corporation, except that cities and incorporated towns may. for the purpose of purchas¬ ing. erecting or maintaining and operating waterworks, electric light and power plants, gas works and heating plants, or of building and constructing sewers, Incur an Indebtedness not exceeding in the aggregate, added to all other indebtedness, five per centum of the actual value of the taxable property within such city or incorporated town. The amount of such taxa¬ ble property shall be ascertained by the last State and county tax list pre¬ vious to the incurring of such Indebtedness.

Funding Bonds. 4s as to State debt, the limitation made Is 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 col¬ lection of a direct annual tax sufficient to pay the interest regularly and dis¬ charge 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 cast. All 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 loaned 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, association or corporation, unless Incurred in time of war for the benefit of the State. Section 2. (Snmc.l The State may contract debts to deficits or failures in revenues, or to meet expenses otherwisesupply casual 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 different periods of time, shall never exceed the sum of $250,000; and the money arising from the creation of such debts shall be applied to the pur¬ pose for which It was obtained, or to repay the debts so contracted, and to no other purpose whatever. Section 4. [For what other purposes State may contract debt.] In addi¬ tion to the above limited power to contract debts, the State may contract debts to repel invasion, suppress Insurrection, or defend the State In war; but the money arising from the debts so contracted shall be applied 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.] Excent the debts hereinbefore sped tied 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 contracting thereof; but no silch law shall take effect 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 au¬ thority 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 pub¬ lished 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. 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 polit¬ ical or municipal corporation shall become a stockholder In any banking corporation, directly or Indirectly. ARTICLE XI, Section 3. [To what amount county or other corporations may become indebted.] No county or other political or municipal corporation shall be allowed to become indebted in any manner, or for any purpose, to an amount in the aggregate exceeding 5 % on the value of the taxable prop¬ erty within such county or corporation—to be ascertained by the last 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. Article XI) covers cities, counties, towns and every other kind of political or municipal The Supreme Court of corporation. Iowa has decided that even a school district Is such a corporation and sub¬ ject to same limit.

CONSTITUTIONAL AMEN DMENTS.—Eight amendments to the State Constitution were adopted at the November 1902 election. Several of the amendments relate to taxation; one permits the city of St. Louis to frame a new charter, while another amends Article 10, Section 12, by ex¬ empting water and assumed county debt of St. Louis and water debt of Kansas City In computing the Indebtedness of those cities. Article X Is also amended by adding a new section (Section 12a) which permits cities of not less than 2,000 nor more than 30,000 Inhabitants to Issue water and light bonds to the amount of 5 % of the taxable property In excess of the debt limit.A two-thirds vote at an election held for the purpose Is necessary See V. 75, p. 1165. to authorize. At the November 1906 election an amendment to Section 12, Article X, of the State Constitution was ratified by the voters. This amendment provides that the 5% debt limit (see below) may be exceeded by counties "for the grading, constructing, paving or maintaining of paved, graveled, macadamized or rock roads y.ml necessary bridges and culverts therein.” provided such Indebtedness be authorized by a two-thirds vote. DEBT LIMITATION.—Missouri has made provision In Its Constitution restricting the creation of debt both on behalf of the State and of Its munici¬ palities. That part relating to the State Is found In Article 4, Sections 44, 45 and 46. These sections provide that the General Assembly cannot con¬ tract debts except (1) to renew existing bonds. (2) to meet an unforeseen emergency or casual deficiency. The State is prohibited from lending Its credit to any person, association or corporation or to pledge Its credit for the payment of liabilities of any Individual, association or corporation. Tne sections relating to the Indebtedness of cities and other municipali¬ ties are found In Article 4, Section 47: Article 9, Section 6, and Article 10 Sections 12 and 12a. These sections make clear (1) that a municipality can¬ not loan Its credit; (2) that It cannot subscribe to the capital stock of cor¬ porations: (3) that It cannot get Into debt unless two-thirds of the voters voting at an election favor It, an,d then only to an aggregate of 5 % of valua¬ tion. except that with such assent any county may be allowed to become In¬ debted In a larger amount for the erection of a court house or jail, "or (as per Amendment of 1906) for the grading, constructing, paving or maintaining of paved, grave-led, macadamized or rock roads and necessary bridges and culverts therein"; and except, also, per the amendment ol 1902 (Section 12a, referred to above), cities of from 2,000 to 30,000 Inhabi¬ tants may by vote exceed the limit by an additional 5% for water and light purposes; finally, (4) that before or at the time of getting the assent of the voters an annual tax must be provided sufficient to pay Interest and form a sinking fund to pay the debt within 20 years.

In his report to the State Auditor, under date of July 1 1906, tlie County Clerk had the following to say: “There is no bonded debt against Macon County except the Missouri & Mississippi RR. debt, all of which has been reduced to judgments, and Is estimated to be about SI ,600,000. The county has been the pay¬ ment of this debt for about 33 years. Some of the judgments have been sold recently as low as 8 cents on the dollar. The county repudiates the debt and refuses to make a levy sulllclent to pay same. In this It has been sus¬ tained by the State and Federal Courts.” On the other hand, the judgment holders are determined to continue the litigation until they find a way of recovery which the county cannot avoid. The following are given by the County Clerk as the Issues outstanding: LOANS— When Due. Gs Nov $17,000 Nov 1 1872 M. & M. RR.

This State has no bonded Indebtedness at present. The bonded debt which on I)cc. 1 1892 amounted to $549,267. was gradually reduced until June 3 1900. when the last remaining $35,000 was paid off. On Dec. 1 1906 the floating Interest-bearing debt outstanding amounted to $1,916,671. The cash on hand Dec. 1 1906 amounted to $331,900. PERMANENT SCHOOL FUND.—The Investments of the school funds on April 1 1906 amounted to $7,127,058 79, held as follows: Permanent school fund, $6,496,986 11: University fund, $158.647 College endowment fund, $399,480 01, and ment fund. $71 945 07. the Normal 60; Agricultural College endow¬ ASSESSED VALUATION.—The total assessed valuation and tax per $1,000 have been; Total Assessed Years.

NEBRASKA—CITIES AND TOWNS. The large Increase in the valuation for 1904 and 1905 Is the result of a general revenue law passed by the 1903 Legislature—Chapter 73. Under this law property Is assessed at 20 % actual value, whereas In earlier years the Droportion seems to have been much lower. DEBT LIMITATION.—Nebraska has carefully provided in Its Consti¬ tution against creating State Indebtedness, but has left city and other municipal Indebtedness chleily In the care of the Legislature. STATE Indebtedness is restricted to $100,000 to meet casual deficits In revenues, except in case of invasion, &c., while the loaning by the State of its credit Is prohibited., FREMONT. new POPULATION OF STATE1 .000.300 1,058.910 1900 1890 1880 1870. ____ 1860 J.C.

The $350,000 Capitol building bonds are also Issued against land grants. In 1906 a decision was rendered In the State Supreme Court, and later sustained by the United States Supreme Court, holding Invalid bonds Issued by the State Board of Land Commissioners, under the name of the State University, State Normal School, Agricultural College and Deaf and Dumb School of the State of Montana. A list of bonds declared Invalid and a resume of the situation are contained in a letter of the State Attorney-General In the “Chronicle” of Jan. 27 1906, page 231. The State has no desire to repudiate these bonds, and In 1907 passed an Act appropriating moneys for interest due up to Jan. 1 1909 and making provision for the calling of these bonds, or part of them, out of surplus revenues in the general fund. See Item in State and City Department of “Chronicle” accompanying this Issue of the “Supplement.” The cash on hand In all funds on March 1 1907 amounted to $1,038,061. The permanent school fund on March 1 1907 held cash and securities amounting to $1,138,996, and other school funds on hand aggre¬ gated $311,409. $234,148,269, of which real 2,409 _ Monday In SITUATION AS TO DEBT. &c.—For facts with reference ASSESSED *12,031 _ first 1893, page 130.

This accounts for the large Increase In values In 1901, as property was assessed at a very much lower basis In earlier years. In addition to the tax rate as above there Is a poll tax of $1 00 per capita. In 1880 and prior to that date this poll tax was 50 cents per capita. DEBT LIMITATION.—Colorado's constitutional provisions with refer¬ ence to the creation of debt are of considerable-length, and strike one at first as quite elaborate. After a brief study of the provisions their good qualities stand out so plainly as wholly to disarm criticism. No State has placed the debt-making power on a more reasonable basis. All the reemla tlons with reference to public Indebtedness are found In Article 11 of the Constitution.

The city has been In litigation over Its 5% 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 constituting their Invalidity, but also held that the city was estopped by rec itals contained In the bonds from denying their validity In the ease 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 Dec 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 Inves¬ V. 69, p. 1260. The United States Supreme Court tigated before buying. Feb. 24 1902 reversed the latter decision and the case was sent hack with Instructions (V. 74, p. 590), and the United States Circuit Court of Appeals In Sept. 1902 thereupon gave Its decision accordingly. V. 75, p. 694. A on compromise was effected In March 1903, the details of which will be found In V. 76, p. 770. The city was In litigation also over $225,000 5% 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, notwith¬ standing their supposed Invalidity. The suits brought by tax-payers to resist the payment of Interest have been dismissed by the Court, and the bonds and coupons are being paid as they fall due.

It will be seen from the above that the power to limit the Indebtedness of municipalities has been relegated to the Legislative Assembly. In 1903 the Legislature, acting under tills authority, passed the following Act— Section 2722 of Bllllnger & Cotton’s Annotated Codes and Statutes. The common council (of cities and towns) shall not In any manner create any debt or liability which shall singly or In the aggregate exceed the sum of two thousand live hundred dollars without first obtaining authority from the Legislative Assembly of this State to contract a debt or liability’ In excess of said sum. The above limitation does not apply to bonds Issued In anticipation of the collection of street and sewer assessments under the authority of any charter of any city of 2,500 or more Inhabitants.—See sections 2727 to 2735 of the Annotated Codes and Statutes. As regards school districts, the general school law as amended by the State Legislature In 1901 (Bllllnger and Colton’s Code, section 3389, para¬ graph 31) gives permission to school boards to Issue bonds (prescribing the method) without special legislation, but stipulates that “In no case shall the aggregate of bonded debt In any school district exceed five per centum of the value of the taxable property of any such district.” Further pro¬ vision is made (Section 3415 of the Code) that the Indebtedness of districts of the first class (those having over 1,000 children of school age) located in cities of over 75,000 inhabitants shall never exceed $100,000—the 5% limit mentioned above applying to all districts of under 75,000 Inhabitants.

STATE DEBT.—The educational bonds are not. strictly speaking, a debt of the State. They are Irredeemable; the fund is Inviolate, and the 6% semi-annual Interest drawn by them Is provided for out of the revenue placed to the credit of the sinking fund annually. The amounts are as follows: State bonds, Issued Jan. 1 1870, $1,327,000; county bouds. Issued Jan. 1 1885, $378,946; new school bonds. Issued March 12 1892, $606,650. The $165,000 military bonds are also Irredeemable; the Interest Is paid to the A. & M. College and the State normal school for colored persons. In March 1903 the State received $1,323,999 from the National Government on account of Civil War Interest claims. V. 76, p. 670. This sum Is being used to take up redeemable bonds of the State, and on June 30 1906 only $26,000 of the redeemable bonds (those due In 1907) remained outstanding. The sinking fund on hand June 30 1906 aggregated $550,872 63.

BIENNIAL SESSIONS.—The Legislature of 1994 passed a joint resolu¬ tion to submit to a vote a Constitutional amendment providing for bien¬ nial sessions of the State Legislature, instead of annual, as is the case at present. Proposition carried, but as a committee appointed by the Gen¬ eral Assembly has reported that many changes in the Constitution are necessary before biennial sessions would be practicable, the Act providing for biennial sessions lias not yet been passed. HISTORY OF DEBT.—For history of South Carolina’s debt from 1794 to 1893, see the "State and City” Supplement of April, 1S93, pages 163 and 164. The United States'held $125,099 principal and $123,759 over-due interest on bonds Issued in ISA;* to complete the State House. In March 1993 they were turned over to »lie State in part settlement of claims of South Carolina against Unite States growing out of the War of 1812. The bonds have been canceled. The State also received in settlement $89,137 86 in cash.
