which leaves an estimated available
net cash balance in the state treasury
for state purposes on Oct. /, 1909 of
only $10,47S.S2.
In reaching this result have not es-
timated thesap appropriations which must
be made by the present legislature in
the supplemental appropriation bill,
which will also have to be paid out of
the receipts of the present fiscal year.
This bill at the last session carried
appropriations amounting to $767 ,329.
60. II it shall be as large as that at
this session we shall have a deficit
on state account on Oct. /, 1909, speak
ing in round figure, of $750,000.
The two chief sources of revenue
for state purposes are derived from a
part of the railroad taxes and all the
taxes on miscellaneous corporations.
From the railroad tax the state re-
ceived, for state purposes only, in
1908, $1,000225.S6 and from miscella-
neous corporations 50, ,4S4, ,S29.92.
There are only two other sources of
revenue that produce over 100000 per
annum.
There are but two ways to meet the
present condition without subterfuge,
evasion or mere temporary expedients.
First, repeal or modify chapter LAG
of the laws Of 1906, which limits the
amount of taxes for state purposes to
one-half of / per cent of the taxes
assessed against the main stem, tangi-
BILE personal property and franchises
of railroad companies, or
Second, vepeal all the present rail
way tax laws and throw the railroad
property into the general property of
the state for taxation locally and
hereafter have a direct state tax for
the support of the state.
In 1884 the state adopted a new
method of taxing railroad property
and not only took to itself for its own
uses and purposes one-half of / per
centum of the tax on the assessed val
ue of the main stem (Which then mt
only included strip of 100 feet in
width, but all the terminals of not ex-
ceeding ten acres and the tangible
personal property and franchises of
each railroad, but like percentage on
all railroad property designated under
the act as second Glass;
The state received for state purposes
under that act in 1SS5-the first year
it was in force and each year since
that date-the following amounts:
Gloucester County Democrat., 1909-01-21

Practically in twenty years there
has not been any increase in the rev.
enue which the state received for
state purposes from railway taxation
The receipts TO the state from the mis-
cellaneous corporation taxes have also
Gloucester County Democrat., 1909-01-21


The additional one-quarter of 1 per
centum, if the increase here suggested
be made, will produce for state pur-
poses about $500,0O0, and the items
above enumerated will add about
$400,OS0, making a total increase of
state revenue of about 100000.
! therefore earnestly recommend the
repeal or at least a modification of
chapter 146 of the laws of 1906, or in
default of that, that the present sys-
tenn of taxation of railroad property
by the state be abandoned and all
property be thrown back into the com
mon property Of the state for taxation
locally for local purposes and a state
tax be levied that will be sufficient to
meet the present needs of the state.
If this latter course be taken tax of
mill on the dollar will produce suffi-
tient additional revenue for state pur-
POSES for the current fiscal year.

treating exhaustively the states finan-

To the Senate and General Assembly:
On the 31st day of October last, the
end of the fiscal year of 1908, there
was an apparent cash balance in the
state treasury of $2,S1S,276.47, but of
this 50, 233, 46761 was due under chap
ter 146 of the laws of 1906, to be dis
tributed on Nov. 1, 1908 to the coun-
ties for apportionment for school pur
poses, leaving on Nov. 1, 1908, only a
cash balance on state account of 1884,
S0S.S6. But even as against this ap-
parent balance there was $500, ,725.14
due upon contracts uncompleted and
carried over to this fiscal year to be
paid
The comptroller estimates the re-
ceipts for state purposes for the fiscal
year ending Oct. 81, 1909, as follows:

One of the greatest fights of the
session will be over the postal saw
ings bank proposal Notwithstand-
ing the fact that this is in the last
Republican national platform and is
even mentioned as an alternative in
the Democratic platform, it will be
opposed by an influential section OF
both parties The banks, of course
will antagonize it-not only the pri-
vate savings institutions, but the ma
tional and state banks.
Ship subsidies will bring another
fight, but from an entirely different
, source. The American people are
additionally. opposed to the granting
of direct subsidies. Mr.. Taft is the
only President that has come Out
fatfooted for ship subsidies.
