3. Year 1911.

The outstanding revenue bonds, af-
ter deductiug the expenses of collec-
ton and allowing for bad debts, will
not probably, on the 1st January 1911,
fall short of eleven millions and half
of dollars ; the actual receipts for the
year 1911, on account of the sales of
lands, may be estimated at five hun
dred thousand: and it is presumed
that the portion of the revenue arising
from importations subsequent to the
present year, which will be received in
1911, will be more than sufficient 70
pay the debentures payable in thatyear.
The actual receipts into the Treasury
during that year may therefore be es
