St. Paul-Minnesota ended 1916
business with $3,66OOOO in rouna fig
ures in the state treasury. 1t is the
biggest year-end cash balance in the
history of the state, according to A. c.

temporary loans to the state outstand-
ing now as at this time in other years.
AS further Indication of the wealth
and prosperity of the state,. Mr..
Gooding said when he relinquished the
office of treasurer to Henry Rines of
Mora, he turned over $25, 5,526,792.15 of
securities in which are invested state
permanent trust funds. New records
are established by the total of this
fund and it's earnings and accumula'
tions of $1,53S,763.44 added during the
year. Like increases in the fund
were $2,S2S,9S3.89 for the last bien-
mum and $6,941, ,427.29, according to
figures compiled by George La Fond,

tionately.

ed temporarily about $500,000 to tide
it over the period of financial string
ency. This year it has been unneces'
