AN ANALYSIS.
An analysis of these statements shows
that there has been disbursed during the
twenty months covered by these transactions
If the treasury $77S, 1853 for the main
jainance Of our state institutions, S612.-
)22. SO in the construction of new buildings
for public use, a$37S ,27S. 80 for interest on
The state debt, and $3.50, l So. 80 for the gen
eral expense OF government; all of which
has been met by the ordinary revenues of
Jhe state, except part of the interest charge
which is paid from the income of the internal
land fund This interest &C
count, almost wholly due to the railroad adj
ustment bonds is a burden recently i'm
posed upon the treasury, and large part of
jhe expenditure for public buildings has
oeen required to replace structures destroyed

Increase in the cost Of maintaining the public
Institutions the past two years have made |
In aggregate OF extraordinary demands that
would have required material additions to the |
AK levy but for the rapid increase of the as
,essable property and the miscellaneous re-
sources OF the state. The one mill tax to which |
The levy has been reduced, with the other
revenues OF the state, have, however, been |
to provide for this unusual outlay, |

end of the last fiscal year. The estimates of |
receipts and disbursements" for the fiscal |
years for which you will make appropria- |
ions promise continued healthy condition |
If the treasury, provided such appropriations
ire restricted within reasonable limits In |
years past the practice has obtained to some |
extent of making appropriations without re-
gard to the revenues from which they were |

lines. been impossible for the treasurer |
% meet acquisitions promptly as pre-
ented, particularly against the rev

ully scrutinize all propositions in
rolving an expenditure of money, and that

init of the probable revenues of the state.
