RELIEF or STAT "a XATION.
The State of Pennsylvania is not
only virtually out OF debt, but has
a surplus in the treasury. This has
been accomplished by wise econo-
my, and by the accumulation of
wealth through the development of
mining and manufacturing interests.
Fifty years ago, when the debt was
Al 100000 dollars, reputation was
talked of, but that debt has been
paid off and, strange to say, no taxes
are levied for State purposes on real
and personal property, but the rev.
enue is derived from taxes on cor
p0rations. This State, issues many
charters per annum, and there is q
license fee that should swell our rev
enues, and the capital stock subscrib'
ed should be taxed, and our people
would be relieved at least from a
greater part of the levy for State
purposes.
