undergoing repairs. Over one hundred men are
at work upon it, and the captain told me she
must be got out in the morning as steamer

sS,O31,628 90 1860

Had the assessment been at actual value
the rate of taxation would not have ex-
ceeded one per cent, and the direct state
tax, which is less than one-twelfth OF the
total tax, would have been less than nine
tenths of mill to the dollar.
The entire state tax, direct and indirect,
for the fiscal year ending September 80,
1878, represented by the receipts into the
general fund, amounts to 81, 1905 81, and
if levied upon the taxable property of the
state would amount to one and one-tenth
mills upon the dollar, or about one-eighth
of the total tax paid by the people. The
amount is $4,000 less than was received the
year before, which with the large deficiency
existing ia the general fund Janury 1, 1878,
and the expenses of the publication Of the
revised statutes, accounts in part for the in
crease in the state tax now being collected.
1t is confidently expected that this tax will
pay all the expenditures of the year 1879
and in addition very materially reduce, If it
does not entirely extinguish, the deficiency
in the general fund which has appeared on
each first day of January for several years
last past
ESTIMATES
The secretary of state estimates that the
receipts for the calendar year 1880 will be
1919, 1856, as follows:
From railway companies .....,..... S38 1000 90
From insurance companies....... $4,000 90
From miscellaneous sources..... $1,000 90
From taxes authorized by exist
Ing laws. Zoo,9Zo 90
He estimates the expenditures for the
same period at 1927, 1856, including SAL
$1,000, the proceeds of the one-tenth of o
mill tax for the benefit of the state univer.
sity, which was omitted from the estimates,
but is included in tse tax levy, for 1879.
These estimates are doubtless as correct
as it is possible to make them. The amounts
to be received from other sources than the
direct state tax may exceed or fall short Of
the estimates, depending very largely upon
the character of the crops and TIE general
condition of the country. In my judgment
they are more likely to exceed than fall be-
low the secretary's estimates, and therefore,
unless extraordinary appropriations are
made during the present session, the levy Of
a state tax of $248,00O in addition to taxes
now authorized by law, will be ample for
all purposes. My views W on the subject of
appropriations are well known, and it is
unnecessary to elaborate them at this time.
The people Of Wisconsin are beth able and
willing to pay all taxes levied for necessary
