THE STATE’S FINANCES.
Below is given in full the gov
ernor’s remarks on the State’s fi
nances :
“The finances oftbe state are in a
very unsatisfactory condition.
During the session of the general
assembly, for 1896, a levy of four
and a half mills was laid to meet
the current explnses of the fiscal
year beginning January 1st, 1897,
and ending December 31st, 1897.
The sum raised by this levy proved
insufficient to meet the expenses,
and we have, therefore, a deficit of
$100,000 to be provided for. By
using every dollar fron* every 1

Y r ou want a remedy that will

THK GENERAL ASSEMBLY.
Opening Seaaioi)* of the Henie and Senate
Are Without Incident.
(Register Jan. 1£.) »
The assembling of the legislature
yesterday was not attended by any
unusual incidents- The members
were promptly in their seats and
business proceeded with the usual
formalities.
Very little interest was taken in
the first day’s session by the peo
ple generally and the galleries
were for the most part deserted.
The principal business of the day
in both houses was the reading of
the governor’s message, which, be
ing short, consumed but little
time. The various topics discuss
ed in it were properly referred,
after which adjournment was tak
en until to-day.
A concurrent resolution was
promptly adopted by both houses
to hold the election for judges on
January 14.
▲ resolution in the house, ex
tending the time for paying taxes
without the penalty, went on the
calendar. There -are sixty-three
bills on the house calendar from
last session.
Remember every article is for
cash during sale at Rucker’s.
The best line of umbrellas in
town at cost at Rucker’s.
Even our notion stock go at cost |
at Rucker’s.
whicO Targe sums uf^bifcP'sfat.e’s
funds have been deposited,
we have met promptly all
current obligations without
borrowing a dollar. The books
were opened for the collection
of taxes, October 15th, and since
that time we have used money thus
collected to pay current
expenses. This money now
being collected, however, be
longs legitimately to the current
appropriations for 1898. By re
fusing to borrow $100,000, us is
oLen done, theugh I have not
saved the State any great amount
in the way of interest charge ,, I
have refused to sanction what ap
pears to me to be a bad policy—
the policy of borrowing money at
interest.
The levy for State purposes will
be high, but you must remember
that we have a deficit of $100,-
000—not of your making—to be
previded for, and that the State
will no longer receive any revenue
for current expenses from the
dispensary prefits, for under the
provision! of the constitution all
profits from the dispensary must
hereafter go to the school fund.
During the past year the general
fund has been augmented by $92,-
000 received from the dispensary ;
the year previous this augumenta-
tiou amounted to $100,000 ”
