STATE TAX SETTLEMENTS.
Towns of Cheshire County Pay Over
a Balance to the State.

The annual settlement of accounts between
the state treasurer and the several towns of
Cheshire county has been completed through
the keene National bank.
The statement given herewith shows this
years settlement to have been more favor
able to the towns, collectively, than that of
last year, in spite of falling off in the saw
ighs bank deposits of approximately $40 900
ano corresponding decrease in the savings

The saving in the balance of taxes paid to
the state by the towns in the county, this
year, as pared with last wear, i. 81, 1853 SO
TINS saving IS due to the reduction in the
state tax effected by the legislature of 1897
and the same rate will continue during the
year 1899

There has b-eu u, ', crease in favor of the
towns for the years 1898 of the amounts due
them from the insurance tax, the railroad tx
and the literary fund amounting TO 1852 70

Ia this connection 1t is interesting to note
the balances which were paid BY the state to
tSe towns in Cheshire county from 1891 to
1880, on account mainly of the large savings

Notwithstanding the hollow was SO big

There was no room for it, even in a hcl-
