Bonded Indebtedness.

tributes the following on Ine
bonded indebtedness of Texas
counties:
There are some interesting
facts and studies in connection
with til report of the state tax
commission giving the bonded in
debtedness of the counties of the
state, as published recently. There
are 215 counties included in the
report, and only eighteen, Ange
lima, Crosby, Collin, Midland, Ma
yarro, Pecos, Refugio, Zapata,
Gillespie, Ector, jeff Davis, Kin
ney, Nacogdoches, Ochiltree, Polk,
Kusk, Roberts and Washington
are reported entirely without
bonded debts.
Of these, twelve have a county
fax rate from 25 to so cents on
the $1OO, one 81 cents, one 60,
four IS, and one Is. A compari,
son of the rate fixed by counties
with a bonded Indebtedness with
those without outstanding bonds
shows the rate of the latter to be
% per cent less. Bexar county
has $1,102,000 bonded indebted
ness, the largest of any county in
the state, and Montague $500, the
smallest. For the lowest place
Briscoe, Franklin and Lipscomb
show only $25OO, Irion $4,000,
Sterling $500, Kendall $1,000.
Galveston has $7O9,OOO, the next
largest on the list to Bexar. Tar
rant follows with $489,0OO, Ma.
rion $3SO,OOO, Dallas $249, 900 and
Brazoria 100000. There are
fourteen counties of the 215
whose bonded debt exceeds $780,
900, namely, Denton, Ellis, El
Paso, Fayette. Harris, Harrison,
Hill, Jefferson, Lamar, Lavaca,
McLennan, Milan, Smith and
Travis.
The bonded indebtedness of the
cities of the state presents the
same interesting studies. Calves.
| ton leads the list with outstand.
I ing bonds amounting to $685..
600, Houston follows with $2,347,.
500, Fort Worth with $2,119,OOO,
San Antonio with $1,971, 900, Dal-
las with $1,976,OO0, and Austin
closes the list Of cities with bonds
! over the million mark with
$1,670,000. There are only six
cities in the state whose indebted.
ness exceeds 100000. Waco leads
with $630,000, Sherman $224,OO0,
Tyler $4,000, Laredo 100000,
Denison $4,000, Ell Paso $780,.
900. Waxahachie, COrsicana and
Corpus Christi and Gainesville
have over 100000. The remain
der of the 126 towns mentioned in
the report have bonded debts
! ranging from $81,10O down to
Fayetteville with $40O, the low.
est in the state. The total amount
of outstanding bonds, municipal
and county, as shown by the com.
! missions report, is $28, 8,707, ,945..
I 20.
A rather peculiar coincidence,
as shown by the report, is that OF
| the 215 counties and 126 cities,
| precisely the same number of
cities and counties are reported
without bonded debts. These
eighteen towns are Arlington,
Amarillo, Bartlett, Cooper, Gar
land, Gatesville, Graham, Jacks

Luling, Midland, Montague, Nor
gan, NacogdOches, Port Arthur.

and besides gained 80 more electoral

event POI or with Kentucky 3O1 votes.
