various state departments and state IN.

representing existing appropriations
subject tn draft on November II. 1895
the S23l, S2i 81 OF deficiencies authorized
By the emergency board. and S6.6li %
OF outstanding warrants. II can thus
be seen that the appropriations asked
for and demanded by present obllga-
lions afO ~ excess OF the probable
available RESOURCES, Si,3ti,is5 IS. II is
apparent that there must be either n
reduction In the amount OF Rppropria-
lions asked for or there must be an In
crease OF the revenue.
The Remedy.
Such n statement of the financial
condition OF the state might suggest
that the only proper remedy is that OF
increasing the tax rate and thus pros
vIdlng additional revenue. In q brief
address made IN the city OF SPRING
field, on the first day OF juno. 1885. TO
the committee on notification appoints
ed by the GAINESVILLE convention 20 Off
daily inform me OF the honor conferred
by that assemblage Of the delegates OF
the Republican party. said: "Recog-
mixing the question OF taxation as one
or grsat Importance. and there having
been complaint that the burdens are
uneQually distributed, viii do all In
my power 70 correct whatever evils
there may be In our present system
with n view OF tightening the burdens
and securing economy In expenditures
to the fullest extent consistent with
proper support OF the charitable insu-
buttons OF the state and the proper con-
duct OF its aifairs." That declaration l
now desire 10 reaffirm and in connec-
tIon with Il express the hope that some
other method than that OF Increasing
the tax rate 20 cover the deficiency may
be found, and that in any event you
viii not make appropriations In excess
Of the revenues OF the state.
The temporary loan OF 100000, pro-
yided by the certificates OF tndebted-
ness. falls due on July I, 1896. II seems
proper TO suggest at this time a plan OF
meeting the difficulty incurred by that
Obligation. The levy OF three-tenths o.
one min for sinking fud purposes Will
produce $5l9.S22 .. according 10 the es-
Innate OF the auditor OF state. To this
Is to be added 5000 TO be received from
miscellaneous sources. To meet the IN
terest on the Irreduclble debt, which
may more properly ~ called trust
