bic effort, can be reduced to S3,300,-
600. Under these circumstances it is
worthy of serious inquiry whether
the finances OF the State are not now
in condition to dispense altogether
with the tax on real estate, leaving
it to be taxed only for county and
township purposes.
1t should be the endeavcr Of the
State, as far as possible, to collect her
revenue from sources that cannot be
reached by counties and towns. AT
the time Of creating the last war loan,
the first thing seized upon for its re-
payment was real estate, and now
that the war is over why should it not
be the first to receive the benefits OF
peace From all parts Of the coun-
try we hear the cry, high rents, and
much of the necessity for this advance
arises from the high local taxation
rendered necessary to liquidate debts
tincured by counties and towns to pay
bounties for the war. Presuming that
our receipts will be s5,426, ,OOC
Our expenses, 5,SOo,OOI
There would be a balance of 2, l26, ,00C
From which deduct tax on real
estate 100000
Leaving a balance of s526,OOC
VIII still leave balance in the treas
ury cf $4,000, over and above al
necessary expenditures. five add tC
this a tax on banks, of $4,000, il
will give us $685. 600, nearly n million
ofdollars to be appropriated TO thS
redemption ofthe public debt. From
this statement, it seems clear to mt
that we could get along withOst levy
ing one dollar of tax on the real es
tate of the Commonwealth. We can
at least, suspend its collection for
year or two, until we have tried th'
experiment.
All of which is respectfully sub
mitted. WILLIAM II. KEMBLE,
State Treasurer.
