1873. Indeed, we all know that it has
materially increased, and that the as
sessment ought to show it. l do not at
tribute the blame for those under-valu-
ations solely to assessors. They cannot
be expected to do otherwise than reflect
the public sentiment. They are the
agents and servants of the people by
whom they are elected. Nevertheless
it is much 10 be regretted that ass ess-
ments cannot be obtained, as the law
requires, upon the basis of actual value,
and thus show the real ratio Of taxation.
The question, also, as to the policy o:
right OF the state to exempt any, except
public, property from taxation, is being
agitated in various sections Of the state,
and the arguments adduced in favor Of
making every class of property con-
tribute equally to the support of the
government which protects it, are wor-
thy of your most considerate attention.
| shall very cheerfu'ly cooperate with
you in any measure, looking to the
correction of the evils incident to the
present system of assessment.
TAXES.
The total taxes levied in the state for
the year 1878, amounted to 81 $685.
$500, which is Sol ,769.OO less than the
total taxes for the previous year, and
was at the rate of $1.93 cn each one
hundred dollars of the state assossme tent
for that year.
The purposes for which these taxes
we're levied, retrospective amounts and
rates arc as fOlIow3.

The increase, during the year, in the
amount at interest, is SCI S95 46, ard
the decrease IN the amount on hand,
Sl2.S52.02-a net increase of $55. .043 Al.
CONTINGENT FUND.
January l, 1879, the balance to the
credit of the governors contingent fund
was S381.91. The appropriation to that
fund last year was 100000, and the
expenditures therefrom $392.10, leav-
ing balance to the credit of that fund,
at the beginning of the calendar year,
of $9S9S1.

fiscal year, and consists Of

The indebtedness of the counties,
cities, towns, villages and school districts
IN the state, amounts to SIC, 115, ,S9019,
according TO the returns made to the
secretary of state. More than usual ef-
forls have been made during the past
year to secure accuracy in these re-
turns, and it is believed they arc essen
uaiiy correct. The total public indebt-
edness OF the people of Wisconsin is,
therefore, S12. .967 ,955.1S, or at the rate
OF about eight and one-half dollars per
capita of estimated ponulation. and
three and one-third per cent. of the as.
sessod valuation.
ASSESSMENTS. !
The values of all properties in the
state subject to taxation as returned by
the assessors for the past two Eesrs, are
as follows:

GOVERNORS MESSAGE.

Fe!lbw citiaeas of the Senate and Assembly:
By the favor of Divine Providence
you are permitted to convene in annual
legislative session at this time, under
most favorable circumstances. Al
though the people of Wisconsin suiier-
ed as little inconvenience, during The
recent protracted depression IN business,
in the prosecution of their public and
private affairs, IS the people OF any
state, and less than III most of the states,
and except in rare instances were en-
tirely unacquainted with actual priYa-
ton and suffering, yet none the less is it
true, that progress and development
were materially impeded and enterprise
and enthusiasm well nigh exhausted.
The past year, however, has witnessed
many auspicuous changes. Everywhere
reviving industry betokens returned
prosperity; hope has supplanted doubt,
and dependency given way to cheer
fulness. Labor and capital are once
more in substantial accord, and never
was q new year heralded with moro en-
cOuraglng promises.
1t affords me much pleasure 10 lie
able to assure you that the affairs and
condition of the state are equally salts
factory. 1t will appear from the vari-
Gus reports of officers and boards OF
management that economy has charac-
tcrized public expenditures and faithful
ness and efficiency been manifest in all
the state departments, and institutions.
Bespeaking for these reports, which are
replete with valuable information, an
early and careful perusal. l submit for
your present consideration, in as brief
space as possible, the mo1e important
particulars, commencing with the

PROMINENT among other Republican pa
pers that are discussing 1.-The effect Of
Grants withdrawal we number the Chi
cago Tribune-an ably conducted paper,
and large stumbling block in the way of
Grants success before the Chicago conven-
ton. But Grant will not withdraw. He is
one of the men who always go for good
thing" if there be one chance of success
against a thousand of failure. He never
declines" anything; and one of the Wild
est dreams of his opponents is that he ever
thought of Withdrawing. AS we have said
before, should he fail to obtain the Chicago
nomination he'd gladly take send off
from Cincinnati, and we are not
sure, by the way, that that
convention would not prove reckless enough
to give it to him. 1t would, undoubtedly,
do so if the influence of the Cincinnati
Enquirer could control in the matter.

THE utter disregard for truth that char
acterizes Republican assaults upon Demo
cratic aspirants for the presidency, and
especially upon such as are held to be
likely to obtain the Cincinnati nomination,
shows a degeneracy in politics that must
alarm the better classes Of men Of both
parties. In their assaults upon Governor
Seymour, Republican newspapers, with a
shamelessness that surprises even their
own patrons, declare that the Governor was
the president Of the Democratic convention,
that declared the war to be a fail
ure, and demanded that the South
be permitted to leave the union. Every in
telhgent man in the country knows that
the Democratic convention of GA made no
such declaration-no such demand. The
declaration was this, that latter three years
of war the Federal arms having failed to
conquer a peace" etc, and nowhere in the
platform can a sentence or a word be found
that can be construed into any desire for a
peace that could not be based on the con-
tinued union Of the states. Republican ed
tors must be in desperate stralghts, indeed,
when they feel themselves called upon to
60 back sixteen years to find material to
lie about.

The Republican scramble for the guber-
Material nomination, in this state, IS not eX-
celled in point Of bitterness by the general
scramble for the presidential nomination at
the hands Of the Chicago convention. In
Southern Illinois the editors Of Republican

Ridgeway and his slim chances, as the
larger editors of the cities are about Grant

THE failure of the Massachusetts, Dcme-
cratic press to bring forward the name of
Charles Francis Adams in connection with
presidential candidacy is one of the sur
prising omissions OF the canvass.
AS the Democracy of the coun-
try, and especially of the New
England states, has been given to all kinds
of damphoollshness during the past ten
years, the failure to urge Adams as the
most eligible man in the party furnishes
cause for genuine establishment. As he isa
full. blooded aristocrat, who would faint at
the smell of perspiring laboring man, the
wonder is that he is not urged
with much persistency AS the Kearney can
didate- as the peculiar and stcadfast
friend of the sons of toll. Such course
would not be out of harmony with our latter
day tactics.
