Minnesota.— hW the State bonds are now held by
the permanent school fund. Minnesota is usually
classed among the States which have avoided their
obligation.?, in consequence of her refu.sal to recognize the "State Railroad bonds" of 1858 to the
amount of $3,275,000. There seems to be a growing
feeling in the State that those bonds should be
acknowledged. See Governor's Message, V. 22, p.
«.3.

It appears that the

$1,750,698,918, while the full value, as estimated by
the State assessors, Is $4,168,330,757. The Comptroller says the actual value should be adopted as
the basis of taxation. The total amount raised by
tax, State and local, in 1375, was $.56,926,470, or 34
mills cm the $1 of assessed valuation. In 1874, the
local debts of dtles in New York State were $137,539,6 9; of coiftitles, $46,685,264, and towns, $25,140,131.

The equalized valuations by .S*ate Board in 1875.

»I.9J5,021.510. By an act of 1874 the towns of West
Farms. Morrisanla and Kin^sbrid^e, owbracing
about 12,000 acres, were annexed to New York.
From the termination of the Tweed reairM in
1871 1<) January, 187.>, the gros^ incrcise in debt was
fi.33,252,(M9, and Comptroller Uri'eu has claimed that
the old demands existing when he took office,
together with the bonds issued to pay deficiency in
State siuking fund, and for up-town improvements,
a^^eiiate more than this whole increase. .Ml unadjusted claims ai^inst the city Jan. 1875. were nominally $6,971, 1-19, a large part of which the Comptroller claims to be fraudulent and has determinedly
opposed. The outstanding abscssment bonds (payable out of local asfc'smcnts on propertv benefitted)
are represented by advanrcs to contractors, advances on Boulevard work, and nncollectcd local
assessments.
Extract from Mayor's Message of
Jannarv. 1876. is given in Y. SJ, p. »i. (V. 80, p. 14,
29; V. 21, p. 86.)
