This shows large annual increase of money
paid out of the Treasury and at the same time
the amount paid into the Treasury has been d.
minished. This is shown by the following alb.

ton acquiesced in the use thus made OF
their credit.
This policy, therefore persisted in un-
til towards the close Of 1899, when the
vast amounts of bonds which were so
layishly thrown into the markets, not only
by this state, but many others, reduced
their price and checked their further ne
getiation.
Thus terminated our unfortunate and
short.lived scheme Of improvements, leav~
ing the state with less than thirty miles of
a single railroad completed, out of the null
titude that had been projected, with an
immense debt overwhelming her, and
without any permanent means whatever
provided to meet the interest that was SO
rapidly accruing upon it. BY using the
proceeds realized from a few unsettled
negotiations, and by sums raised by the
hvpothecation of bonds at reduced prices.
the fund commissioner was enabled to
pay the interest until January, 1871. 1t
then became the duty of the legislature to
provide more permanent means for that
purpose for the future.
Such, however, was the exhausted con-
dtion of the state, that it was deemed al
vsable to resort TO the desperate eXpedient
of authorizing the sale of bonds at what
ever price they would command, in order
to raise funds to meet the interest that
would accrue in the ensuing two wears.
This provision it was supposed would
be amply sufficient to enable the state to
meet her obligations, and preserve her
plighted faith up to the present time. Ex-
perience, however, has demonstrated the
nsulency of this policy.
Our bonds had deprecated so greatly
in the market. that the fund commissioner
deemed sale incxpedient, and raised
Nancy to meet the interest which became
due in July, 1871, by hypothecation, at Il
very reduced rate. The still greater de-
probation which subsequently occurred,
rendered the farther use of bonds totally
unavailing. |, therefore becomes my I'M
pleasant duty to advise you that no inter-
est has been paid since the date last men
toned.
Such is brief account of the origin
and accumulation of our public debt.
In order that you may as clearly as
possible comprehend the financial condi-
tion Of the state at the present time, the
following tabular statement is submitted:
