 THE COMMITTEES REPORT,
 The joint standing committee on f. nance, who were directed by house Joint resolution No. 90 to investigate he matter of raising sufficient funds to pay the yearly expenses and expendi- l ures of the state, and to recommend l such additional taxation as may be re- luired to'meet the current expenses and | 'eport by bill or otherwise, beg leave | 0 submit the following report;

The other way ras to seek the opinions of those state fficens who by law or by custom are xpected to make estimates and whose and position give weight to heir opinions. Your committee adopt d both methods and in both lines of in- reached conclusions which ,are virtually the same. For the pur- Ose of comparison your committee went ack in the history of the state for a eight yeara It Is obvious that l comparing expenses a year of odd or even date should be compared with miar year, as the large cost of the eneral assembly is charged to every ther year only. It is also clear that le interest on state bonds and on the 'ust funds should be thrown out of the punt, as this represents debt rather lan an expense. For the fiscal year ending in 1887, ll le state expenses thus considered l ere S1, ,601, ,594j six years later or in l,., II Nc =
