due 1924, $149, 900 at per cent interest
OF this issue $1,000 has been paid. This
issue held by state school fund.
Shawnee county funding bonds due
1909, at per cent interest, $50, 000 None
of the principal has been paid. Held by
state school fund
This makes the total bonded indebt-
edneSS of Shawnee county at present,
SASS, 600. In the last year the commits
sioners have paid off $4,000 of the
the c. K. & N. issue and $4,000 of the
script issued for the building of the
five Kansas river bridges.
To make these payments the commits
gether and used about $4,000 left in the
general revenue fund. The bonds held
by the school fund can be taken up at
any time if the interest to date and the
principal is paid, but the bonds held by
private parties, in the two issues for
railroads, can not be bought unless the
individuals happen to be willingF to
SELL The commissioners succeeded in
taking up $1,000 of the c. K & N.
bonds which were on the market.
The commissioners can make no pos
tive calculation as to when the bond
ed Indebtedness can be wiped out, but
on an estimate the commissioners be-
lieve it can be done in seven or eight
years. The estimate is made on the
basis of an assessed valuation of ST.
the interest and sinking funds of the
bond issues.
The present annual interest on the
Shawnee county debt is about $4,000
The annual amount for interest will be
lessened each year as the bonds are
paid. The annual saving in interest, if
the present levy is carried, will be
about $500. which will amount to $780,
900 in eight years.
The present levy for interest and
sinking funds brings in about $4,000 a
year. The commissioners figure on
having $4,000 to $4,000 a year left from
the general revenue fund to be used
in the taking up of bonds. This gives
an annual sum of about $50. 900 for that
use If there was no interest to be
paid this would clean up the Shawnee
county Indebtedness in eight years, but
the annual interest has to be reckoned.
The commissioners anticipate an in
creased assessed valuation each year
which, at the present tax levy for the
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1904-03-12

interest and sinking funds, will amount
to considerable increase in the fund
each year. Should the tax levy for the
interest and sinking funds be raised
from .314 to mills the increase in rev.
enue for the fund each year, at the
present assessed valuation, would be
about $4,000 which would bring the
total of the fund each year up to about
$4,000, which would practically pay the
interest and wipe out the bonded in
at the present assessed valuation.
In anticipating the iquidating of the
Shawnee county debt within the time
set Of eight years, the commissioners
the increase in the assessed valuation
will be sufficient to increase the annual
amount in the interests and sinking
funds to the figure necessary for the
payment of the bonds in eight years
At the present assessed valuation with
tax levy of .314 for eight years
the commissioners will have about $780,,
900 during that time to pay off $4,000
in bonds and about $4,000 in interest.
This will leave about $181, 900 difference,
commissioners hope can be taken care
of by reason of an Increased assessed
valuation.
If the assessed valuation is not in
creased sufficiently to raise this 1881 ,000
which stands between the county get
ting out of debt in eight years, the COM
miSSiOnerS can raise the levy sufficiently
to secure the amount necessary.
The policy of the commissioners is to
have Shawnee county free from debt in
eight years and with that purpose in
view the commissioners do not wish to
assume any more Indebtedness and will
not go in debt for the rebuilding of the
Kansas river bridges, but will rebuild
them as the levy, which brings in about
$4,000 year for bridge building, sup
plies the money.
