REPORT OF THE COMPTROLLER.

TREASURY DEPARTMENT, STATE OP FLORIDA,COMPTROLLER'S OFFICE, , 1

TALLAHASSEE, January 1, 1895..)i

HON. HENRY LAWRENOr MITCHELL,.: '-

Governor of Florida: ;

SIB-I have the honor of presenting herewith my official;report ot the transactions of the Treasury Department of the State, for the fiscal year ending December 31st, 1894. ;

FLORIDA'S FINANCIAL CONDITION. ,

My first report from this office, under date of January 1st, 1891, presented an unsatisfactory condition of the State'sM ifinances. For the first time in many years she was unable to ; meet some of her outstanding warrants. In ±tddition to the :, ,$100,000 borrowed in 1889, under Legislative authority, the ll

State was due in the shape of. deficiencies and warrants ,i

$85,000. She was thus confronted with what might be -- termed a floating indebtedness of $185,000 with the Treasury.; ;

depleted of funds applicable to such purposes.; The necessities of the State were so urgent that the Leg-'

islature of 1891 authorized the borrowing of an additional -$100,000 to meet past deficiences and outstanding warrants. :

It required that sum and the ordinary revenue of the year to ;pay those deficiencies and outstanding warrants, and meet current expenses, including the cost of the Legislature thenDin session. -7

The succeeding year (1892) witnessed an improvement, '

notwithstanding the reduction by the Legislature of 1891 ofone-quarter mill from the State tax proper; and when theLegislature of 1893 met, there were no deficiencies and nooutstanding warrants that the Treasurer could not pay ondemand.

This improvement was so continuous and steady, beingigreatly stimulated by the financial legislation of 1893, that it

' . , - --. ^ -_ . '..- I

'I ' ! ' 7t i,~ l~ ~ was never necessary to exercise the authority given by that-' *:"'-CT ~. ~ Legislaturd to again borrow funds to meet the current appro-! ':;, - ~priations and interest upon the State debt. Indeed, the Legis- -

{8 . : ~; [lature of 1893 was so beneficial from a financial standpoint I1' > -~ that the expenses not only ceased to overrun the State's in-

L j , 'come, but left a healthy surplus in the treasury.-]~~ ~ This improvement can be well illustrated by a comparison

of the amount of cash to the credit of the "General Revenue"in the respective years covered by this short resume of our -

recent financial condition.:;~ ~ There stood to the credit of the "General. Revenue" as- X

0-:i" amount to the credit of "general revenue" on Decemberi'^ 0 St ~31st, 1894, $161,043.18. Tnis amount stood to the credit of

i ;,''the "general revenue," notwithstanding the fact that all ex-penses of criminal prosecutions presented up to December-

,;1'4' 4 - 31st, 1894, were duly audited and ptid by the State.1 .^~~ . BS~REDUCTION OF TAXATION.

Impressed with the belier that the best financial theoryever advanced, is to spend as little as possible, and that the best tax ever levied is the smallest, I hope the course of the,Legislature will be such as to afford positive relief to thepeople.

Owing to the counties assuming the co its and expenses oftheir own criminal prosecutions, one mill will of course betaken from the State tax proper, as about one mill was thelevy considered necessary to meet those expenses during thepresent year.

As witnesses for the prosecution are no longer paid bythe State (Jurors and Witnesses before the Grand Jury beingalone payable from the State Treasury), an additional reduc.-

~~~! ~ tion of one-fourth of a mill can be safely made, making the,~1 ~' ~ total reduction of one and a quarter mills, or about $125,000-J; ~! .~ annually. This will leave the State tax proper, three mills.

These reductions are of course recommended upon the sup-position that the revenue from the present License Laws will

l l . not be materially altered, and that the Legislative appropria-

I', ' . A-

F . ! *: ., * v

tions will be strictly confined to the estimated needs of theState.

A deaf ear should be turned to every effort to increase the'estimated appropriations. As to extraneous expenditures,, ''(except a moderate sum to advertise the State's resources atiAtlanta), no persuasion or pressure should induce favorable laction. l

The fact that the State still owes one hundred thousand , * dollars ($100,000.00) in New Yoik, which should be met on;.

- the 17th of July of the present year, is of itself a conclusive ; , reason why the Legiblature should exercise the most rigid -X '* economy and limit its appropriations to the necessities of the ; ,

government.Organized special interests will perseveringly press for . i

State aid, but it should be remembered that the great body of itaxpayers look to the Executive, and to their Representatives, to give them relief. Two years 'of financial and industrialdepression. with the products of our agricultural classeslower than ever known in our history, and the great loss by- the extreme temperature of the present winter, should all ad-

- monish us that the great mass of the people are asking an ;.' alleviation of public burthens.i-.

All of our taxes, State and county, have been too high. 'Reduction of taxation is one principle in which the practice. --always surpasses the theory. It gives relief and contentment jto the people. It minvites more reasonable returns of property for purposes of taxation. It is the strongest incentive to im- ' ; migration that lawmakers can offer. It is the best advertise- ment the State can make.

CBIMINAL PEOSECUTIONS8.,

The last Legislature, by a vote of over "three-fifths of all -

- the members elected to each house," passed an amendment toSec. 9, Article 16 of the Constitution, and the people at the

- election of the 2d of last October adopted the same. The'i amendment, which now forms a portion of the Constitution,is as follows:

Section 9. "In i11 criminal cases prosecuted in the name-of ti he State when the defendant is insolvent or discharged,the legal costs and expenses, including the fees of officers,shall be paid by the counties where the crimne is committed,under such regulations as shall be prescribed by law; and all-fines and forfeitures collected under the penal laws of theState shall be paid into the county treasuries of the respect-ive counties as a general county fund to be applied to suchlegal costs and expenses.";

By this amendment Florida returned to the system that

i!-i I 8.'

\\,\ had always existed in the State from her admission into the1,1 ~! 1 j ~ Union up to 188'7, when the constitution framed by the Con.

It r .L^. vention of 1885 went into operation. A system that four- 4 L . * fifths of our sister States adhere to as more equal in its -

I ., Be~ > 'operations, ahd more conducive to the best interest of theirj J Gus I ' taxpayers. It is not an experiment., but a system endorsed.

by long usage and confirmed by intelligent experience.It is based upon the principle of local self-government, a

.I~~ ~ principle that is not only the foundation of individual liberty, -but in its operations proven to be the most satisfactory and economical. - *

Experience everywhere demonstrates that departments at a -

distant capital cannot give local accounts originating in the-:t. 'S ~ counties that intelligent consideration which can be exer-

|.: '''. cised by local authorities, familiar with local affairs, and witha .- \' '*' the general surroundings bearing upon each particalar case. ,

@ ,2 ~' ,^ As our Supreme Court has said: "A more economicalI x~ Hi~ method is required, whereby the local authorities, composedXI~; l~ ~ of persons likely to be familiar with local affairs, may with < .~i;:S ~ watchful care, defend anI protect thieir own interests against

', l ,'|; ithe fraudulent practices sometime alleged, of imposing upon.'*~l^ -. ~ the auditing officer of the State without'the.possibility often

'i **~'!t ~ of his determining upon the justness of claims presented in!ljq .c due form, but which might, without inconvenience, be m.ire-

ji ; l " :' ''thoroughly investigated by persons acquainted with the cir- .'I 1;4 . ~ ~ cumstances and origin of each claim."j l: : ' '; - Upon the other hand, experience equally demonstrates thatU1 ij~ 'where accounts have to be audited and paid at a distant

~iY,^!~. ~ capital, local auhorities do. not as a general rule give themthat close investigation which they would if they were to be-,paid from the local treasury under their control.

The duty of paying such accounts alone produces a prooer-feeling of responsibility in auditing, necessary to a due economy.

Such payments at a distant capital has another important-bearing. Representatives are more prone to give Legislativesanction to the importunities of interested parties to increase

~I;~~ ~ costs and expenses, when the payments are to be thus made.e ;.''~ ~ This has been evidenced in our own State..;~ *'*'~ ~ After the adoption of the constitution of 1885, placingi' *: ; criminal costs upon the State, th -re was not a Legislature,-

acter, but I have never doubted that when once made it will be satisfactory to the taxpaying p ople of the respective :

- counties as well as officials. |

AN OPPOaTUNITY NOW TO RELIEVE THE PEOPLE.

Reasoning from the sate basis of experience, the concla- - sions are most satisfactory. They go far beyond the mere , change of the channel through 1 hich these expenses are

liquidated, and bring positive and permanent relief to the taxpayers And was it not necessary ?

Every Legislature, after the adoption of the present con-t stitution, added to these costs and expenses until 1892 the

payments under the two heads of Jurors and Witnesses and* Criminal Prosecutions amounted to about $220,000. When

we reflect that this was two and a half (2k) mills upon the :entire net assessed valuation of the State, for these two jsources or expenditure alone, we begin to appreciate the 'magnitude of this rapidly growing burthen. No other Statein the Union was subjected to such a tax rate, for such pur-

- poses. It was a reflection upon the law abiding character off- . our people, an increasing drain from the earnings of the tax-

payer, and a constait menace to the credit of the State.The Legislature of 1893 fortunately placed a check upon

this growing evil, and presented an amendment, which, if fol-lowed with proper legislation, will eradicate the cause.

4t- ' -. nHOW CAN RELIEF BE SECURED? .

Let us now note the evidence to demonstrate that the counties will not have to levy the one and a quarter mills,which will be taken from the State tax. Leaving out of pres- ent c nsideration the fact that the large majority of the -counties now pay into the treasury more for criminal costs- than they receive back, a few considerations will evidence the fact that, it will no; be necessary for any county to make as.large a levy as the State has made for those costs.

In the first place, the counties only pay when the defendant.is insolvent or discharged. If the defendant is solvent andconvicted he is required to pay all costs. There can be noquestion of the fact that the State has b en made to pay manycost bills that could have been made out of the defendants, if'due diligence had been exercised.

County Commissioners having to audit and pay these costsout of the county treasuries for which they are responsible,and being familiar with all the co editions, will naturally re-quire more exhaustive efforts to secure the same from the de-fendants.

Officers will soon learn that they must look more to theL*. .

8 * * . * i criminal for their costs and fees, and a vigilance, prompted ; t

.^~ - ~~by self-interest, will naturally largely increase the number, . -,-,CT-that should be made to pay the costs incident to their own ~~~~; ''\crimes.

¢ ;. ~~The Commissioners should be plothed with authority tq Futilize the labor of those sentenced to the county jail in any

ark I manner they may deem best to produce a pecuniary return for the expenses of prosecution. With due diligence, and author- t ity to utilize the labor of county convicts, there can be no question that County Commissioners will be able to reduce ,'Flargely the amount of payments from the county treasury. i_

The law should also allow the net proceeds of all convicts -.

;,~~ . " sent to the penitentiary, to be divided between the counties, in proportion to the number of convicts from each county.

In addition to this, all fines and forfeitures are now re-quired by the amendment to the constitution, to be paid "

into the county treasuries 'to be applied to such legal costsand expenses." The fines and forfeitures ha-ae heretofore

), ' ~gone to educational purposes,but the insignifeant sums col-j ;'. 4: , leeted under these heads in the respective counties, in com-

>§; .\parison with -what they should have been, caused many of the.".'i tt~foremost and most enthusiastic educators in the State to ad-

.'* -;~~ *vocate that all the proceeds collected under the penal laws ofi l i j the State be applied to the expenses of said prosecutions.i I~ :~ ~ It is the natural and logical method of applying them.

i;!^~ ', ~The "net proceeds" of fines paid into the school fund dur-,(~~1 ~ ing the last scholastic year amounted to only $9,906.50.

Every one who has investigated the question feels thattl~~~ ; this sum scarcely represents one-fifth of the amount that canAl-a-' -~ ~ be collected from all the fines imposed by the various Justi-

ces of the Peace and higher courts of the State. There willbe the strongest possible incentive for officials to see that-such fines are paid into the County Treasury to meet theirfees; and the County Commissioners will be more active, and

* ~ secure monthly reports of all fines imposed, and into whosehands placed for collection. It should soon follow that thefew counties now having the largest criminal litiga: ion will

'yS'"' - be correspondingly reimbursed by the increased revenue fromthe fines imposed in such litigation.

The same results will flow froam he change requiring For-,:~ ' ~~feitures to be utilized for criminal costs. Officers who have

the approval of bail bonds will learn that it is to theirij~ *~ ~ interests not to approve b nds unless the penalty can be madei~ -. ~ ~ on erect; ion against the sureties.~~~~I ~ As the matter formerly stood, no one seemed interested

j. , ~~enough to enforce collections, and it is claimed that there| '~~ ~ are hundreds of bail bonds in various counties that have been

II .

.: '} .l -

forfeited and no judgments ever rendered. There should alsobe a more expeditious and better method than the one now inforce for estreating and collecting these forfeited bail bonds. I

In some of the States a sufficient sum is realized from the: fines a'nd forfeitures alone to meet all the expenses of crimi-

nal prosecutions, and it is believed that under proper lawsand due vigilance on the part of officials it will soon approxi-male that amount in Florida.

The law should provide for a separate and distinct countyfund, to be known as the Fine and Forfeiture Flnd, into i

R. whicd all proceeds applicable to criminal costs should be paid.It should be under the control of the County Commissidners, ' Iand it should be made their duty to see that every fine and "forfeiture that it was possible to collect, and all the other rev- p

enues applicable thereto, be paid into such fund to meet crim-inal costs. The payment of such costs should come exclus- '

:- ivey trom this fund, and have no connection with the generalrevenue fund of the county,

AIter carefuXl uve WgstXon, w'ith the experence of otherStates as a guide, the conclusion is reached that it properlawA and regulations are enacted by the approaehing Leoisla-ture it will not cost the taxpayers one-half of the amount re-quired when the State made the payments, and at the sametime do full justice to all officers. Indeed, there is no validreason why Florida should not, at an early day, follow theexample of Georgia and Alabama in rendering prosecutionsself-sustaining, and entirely relieving taxpayers from the bur-then.

BPUONDING TO.THE COUNTIIS.

Had it have been known when the .last Legislature was in- session, that the amendment to seotion 9, article 16, of the. .

Constitution, woul -have beet adopted by popular vote, the-Comptroller, who generally estimates the- millage for theState tax proper, would of course have placed ttb estimate.at fully one mill less. The amendment was adopted on thesecond day of October, 1894, a' month before the taxes. forthat vear were- due. -'The-.State consequently is collectingthat amount of taxes. for criminal costs, after. said costs wereplaced upon the counties by constitutional mandate.

In view of the. facts of- the case, and the further potentfact, that the State can legitimately spare the amounts nowbeing collected for criminal costs, both equity and justicedemand that said amounts be 'refunded to the respectivecounties.

The proposition seems to my mind so clear, just, and self-evident, that I cannot doubt but that a bill for the relief of

Jlj, - * o *-'*;: ; * * >~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~'

10

1t'lS l , � the several counties of the State, having that objec; in view,F '--_will meet the hearty concurrence of the Legislature. The

|* : ~~ ~ counties will thus be in Junds to met-t the demands for,'i; I *: ' ~criminal costs without any embarrassment, until opportunity'i4ti *^ i -is afforded them to make the necessary provision for said

himU | 'costs.

j~ i l!~~~EQUALIZATION OF ASSESSMENTS.

No question comes to the front with greater regularity to -!. * ~vex lawmakers and officials, than the equalization of assess-

ments for purposes of taxation. For the last twenty years Comptroller's reports and Executive messages have calledattention to the inequ ilities of the assessments in our State.The prominence given to it, however, in recent discussions

4r ;1 ' * through the press is a sufficient justification of a more ex- -||/ll~ ~ tended and detailed notice.'tj,. | a In pursuance of my determination to investigate the laws i

of most of the States in the Union, bearing upon this subject, \ | ! * . those of Massachussetts and Virginia were the first examined.

', ~~' i They were two of the oldest States, and if experience was , ~; -- valuable, supposed to have profited by i-. Their Educational

e1) sl ~Institutions rank with the best, and their representative menri ! are always classed with the most cultured. They represented

'.'^:- ~ also the leading characteristics of the two great sections of-i ;t. ~ our Union. Surely if perfection was approachable in finan-. ,l~ ;~ ~ cial legislation, those two honored commonwealths would at -41t jleast give affirmative evidence.1"\t i ~My investigation of the Massachusetts tax system,a

Li',t," ~ was met with the declaration from high authority -'that the

system of taxation in use in the State of Massachusetts is a --* thoroughly indefensible method, when judged on the ground -

of either political economy or practical results, and there isabsolutely no justice in the present form of taxation which .

arbitrarily taxes one class of property and exempts another."Turningoto Virginia, it was found that Gov. Melinney, in -

;^* - retiring from the governorship in December, 1893, after fair4 ~~~'i" ~ years of experience, found the assessments-so unequal and soillj~ . ~unsatisfactory in that Commonwealth that he felt it his dutyl<\~ j ~~to csll the matter to the attention of the General Assembly in~id~ ,i~ ~a special message, in which he rec mrnended the creation of a

-;{~ ~"special tax commission" to take the entire subject underll~ i~ ~ consideration. Experience and education had found no solu.

,'1 ~. i . ltion for the question in those two States.;t I Investigation demonstrated that the equalization of assess-

l;]'~ - ~ ments was a greatly discussed and much vexed question in i!\'\ 1 ~nearly all the States.

i,i. . - * ' ' Xi

; : , * 11 ' :, ')1

an earnest and intelligent effort to at least secure some im- 'provement. . The examination of the question presents threeseparate considerations; First, the equality of assessments in the counties; second, the equality of asspssments between the counties, and then, the consideration of the great inequality between the assessment of real and personal property.

-.- . EQUALITY OF ASSESSMENTS IN THE COUNTIES.

. The equality of assessments in the county is the leading '< factor in the attempted solution. It is the keynote to the ;

: situation. Without it success is impossible. Ho v is that to ' be secured? '

. Our constituti mn provides for the appointment of assistant , * assessors of tixes in the respective counties, and our revenue

law prescribes their duties. In addition, the Legislature of 1891 required the County '

' Commissioners in each county to appoint "two intelligent* and fair-minded freeholders in each precinct" to act with the

Assessor, or A-sistant Assessor, in securing a proper valua-tion upon all real prop.'rty in that precinct. Their valuationswere then to be revised and equalized by the County ('om-m.ssioners. Apparently every agency was here provided to secure the objects of the law.

. -' The Assessor was to exercise his best judgment in arriving at th.- "full cash value" of the property. His decision was tobe examined and revised by "two intelligent and fairmindedfreeholders in each precinct." The result of their combinedjudgment was then to be revised by five gentlemen, appoint-

t ed by the Governor from among the most in'elligent andcapable citizens of the county, as County Commissioners.' What more c muld be done? And yet the system was not a ,

.success, and in some counties it was claimed that the "two-' intelligent and fair-minded freeholders in each precinct"

placed such different values upon the same grade of prop-- erty in adjoining precinc's that the inequality was more

glaring than ever. The failure to equalize was so manifest' that the succeeding Legislature omitted the -two.freeholders-

and left valuationi to the Assessor, to be revised and equal-ized by the County Commissioner8.

After an examination of the revenue laws of many States,no better agency was found suggested to equalize values for

assessment purposes in the respective counties, than such a- board as the five Coanty Commissioners are presumed to be.

They are appointed by t.e Governor, and supposed to beamong the most trustworthy and intelligent business men of

*the.connty,and it careful and proper selections are made,where can you look for an agency in the county that should

A, -

PII,

12

-be able to secure better results? Yet there are evidencesFT ^---, of great inequality in many of the counties. It is to be

hoped, therefore, that suggestions from all sources will be re-ceived and well considered by the Legislature, in its effortsto deal with a question that has perplexed mankind eversince "there went out a decree in the days of Claudius

2, ! Caesar, that all the world should be taxed." It must, however, -be remembered that no human agency

can secure equality of assessments to the satisfaction of all.Men's judgments will differ, even when viewing questionsfrom the most disinterested standpoint.

EQUALIZATION BETWEEN THE COUNTIES.

The desire of localities to avoid the payment of an undueproportion of the State tax, is frequently the cause of a ten-dency to low assessments. But if those assessments in thecounties are just and properly equalized, it would be muchless difficult for a central or State Board to equalize suchvalues between the counties.

Examination shows some twenty-one States of the Unionhaving State Boards for such purposes. The boards are vari-ously designated, but the duties are all practically the same.In some of the States the officials of the State have to per-form the duties, others having sach boards fill them withcitizens disconnected from any of the duties ot State officials.

As a rule, their duties are simply to equalize assessmentsbetween the counties, taking no cognizance of any inequali-ties of valuations in the counties. Some few, however, go tothe latter extent. In such cases members of the State boardgive public notice when they will be in a particular county,and the Assessor and County Commissioners, (or othercounty boards of equalizae ion,) are summoned, and questionedunder oath as to the equality of assessments. Individuals arealso invited to appear and point out any known or supposedinjustice in the assessments.

In the twenty-one States having such boards, the financialofficers in twelve state that they are a success, in eight verydoubtful, and in one an entire failure. They all agree, how-ever, that it depends largely upon the qualifications of themen plared on sazid boards.

Of these twenty one States having equalizing boards fourare classi d as Soutl hern.

The best results are thought by some to be accomplishedby having a State convention of assessors to meet th- Stateboard of equalization when the values of real estate ar * beingadjusted. Missouri and Indiana particularly seem to havebeen imbued with that conviction, and last spring Governor

" .. "' 1."- la~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*4

Stone, of Missouri, at the unanimous request of the StateloBoard of Equalization of that State, invited the assessors to -- imeet in convention and co-operate with the board in its -work. Of course such a convention of assessors was not ex- - I .pectAd annually, for the valuations fixed upon for real estate-- , T

were supposed to stand for ? number of years. - 1Florida establishdd a State Board of Equalization, on Jan-

uary 30, 1811, to ba composed of eight members. It was a:!';joint legislative c 1mmittee of three from the Senate and five from the House, appointed by the presiding officers of th)se- itwo bodies. Its incapacity was stamped upon its surround- ings at its birth, and its short existence ended in a dismal,-a failure. f

INEQUALITY BETWEEN REAL AND PBERSONAL PROPERTY.!

While inequality of assessments upon visible property is a que ation of the highest import, the question of subjecting ,'the invisible property to bear its just proportion of the bur- thens of government, is equally important, and fully as dif-; ificult. It is a question that seems to have defeated the ef- . .

forts of the entire country. ! - The Governor of Virginia, in a message to the Legislature. " '

of that State under date of December 12,1893, said: " From! l 1810 to 1880, the census returns show that the assessed valu-' i ! eation of the personal property of the United States decreased I one million and a quarter, and from 1880 to 1890 the decrease- -- V',

was even greater; the real estate increasing during the sameperiod more than five billions, while the fact is conceded that. the value ot real estate and personal property increase, as a , X

: rule, pari passee." ; If suah be the case one would suppose from the decrease ini

. the value of personal property, that the country was rapidly i&it rushing to bankruptcy. i

The mere statement of the facts carries the conviction that.- ;K, thevast wealth of the country, embraced in credits, bonds, '

mortgages, stocks and other invisible property, is not rep- - 'resented on the tax books, and does not bear its just propor- Ction of the burthens of government. i i

Florida unfortunately is no exception to the rule. In 1887ithe assessed value of personal property in this State amounted ;to $19,357,499. In 1894, seven years thereafter, it had de- '''cdined to $11,484,969. -

Can anyone believe that the personal wealth of Florida,- iincluding the invisible property alluded to above, decreased -:- -$1,812,530 in the last seven years, and that, too, in view of-t .4the fact that $869,435 in the shape of bank stock was addedI

* -TO-- . to the personal assessment for the first time the past year ?~; -~ ,~ If so, his credulity should at once secure for himu a guardian.

It is estimated by those best informed up-)n the subject thatthe personal pr-oper' y of a Commonwe IltI, incluling olrcourse

'"-^ | ~ ~ credils, bonds, mortgages, stocks, etc., is about equal to thevalue of its, real estate. While this proportion may not beobseivedinan agricultural State like Florida, yet it is doubt-ful if there appears upon her assessment rolls more than one-fourth of the value of her personal property; and three-fourthsof that class o;f property, better able than any other to bearthe burt hens of taxation, escape entirely.

The numerous remedies that have been suggested for in-equality of assessments but emphasize the difficulkies sur-

~i "\ - rounding this greatly discussed question. Aside from theii; -^ State boards of equalization, numerous other suggestions

L! .' - ' have been made. Some suggest that the Stat'e secure itsentire revenue from personal property, or a license and in- .. -

.~;: :. come tax, leaving the real estate for county taxation, thatNli '. ~ the State may avoid the difficult and dlelicate question of

l'1 l equalizing its value in and between the counties.'M;.l '0 her suggestions are for the counties to be assessed ac-; 1.' .~~cording to wealth or population, such sums as may in the ag-I ; pi ~gregate be necessary for the support of the State govern-

-':~ ~ ment, thus leaving it to the counties to make their owni' ~ -' equalizatio n. A few ol these suggestions are merely re-!' W ~~peated to show the vexed nature of the ques ion, as they are

*/ ~ open to very cogent criticism.Certainty, equality and productiveness are the chief essen-

tials of a good tax law; they are the canons and best embodi-ment of financial wisdom, as approved by the most eminenteconomists. Many of these numerous financial-suggestionsjeopardize these maxims, and the law making powers shouldweigh well all proposed reforms, for it is not every changethat procures improvement.

^~_ ' - ~The equalization of values is of the highest importance tothe end that all may contribute equally to the support ofgovernment, and we all should desire that equality upon theconstitutional basis of the "just valuation of all property

~~I ' ~ both real and personal." To simply raise the value, however,of real estate and visible personal property without a justequalization and leave still untouched the vast millions of in-

* - visible property, that can best contribute to the governmentwhich gives it security and protection, will increase rather

l;~~ ~ than alleviate present complaints.j;~ - ~~My efforts have been simply to present some salient facts

';*~~ ~gathered from the laws, etc., of other States, not pretendingto give positive remedies for difficulties that have baffled

15

statesmanship for centuries. Copies of the laws creating-boards of equalization in the several States have been se- . i

cured, which will be at the service of the appropriate corf 'irimittees, with such suggestions as shall be deemed beneficial. -At the same time some needed changes of a minor nature in' our revenue laws will be presented.' 1 l

BANK TAXATION.

Chapter 4117, Laws of Florida, provides for the assess-'; ment and collection of taxes on bank stock. UInder it, all ;'|shares of stock in banks incorporated and exist ing under theilaws of the United States, or of this State, have to be as-' ttessed for taxation. '",i

Paragraph 12, section 9, of Chapter 4115, Laws of Florida, i",requires all banks to pay a license tax, graded according to 'i; :the amount of capital stock. The United States courts have 'iheld that States could not collect a license tax from a na-i ttional bank, and confines her powers of taxation to the capi-'.tal stock of such banks. The State banks, however, under' ' "'our laws, are subject to bo h the license tax and the tax on'i capital stock. This is manifestly unjust, and it is respectfully fsubmitted that banks coming underthe provisions of Chapter'; j

' 4111, and taxed on their capital stock, should not be required' to pay a license tax also. I

The year just closed is the first that bank stocks were ever assessed, and the ax made payable by the banks. There' should not be the great inequality in the assessments of 'this class of p!operty as it appears on the assessment rolls of the respective counties.

TAXATION.

In his "Constitutional Law of the United States," Dr. H.

civilized States, mast be to have each individual bear the'. public burthens in the exact proportion that his abili'y topay taxes bears to the tax paying ability of the entire pop- ;ulation. The realization of this ideal is impossible. It canbe approached only by combining different taxes in such a 'way as to make their defects balance each other."

' - The most satisfactory legislation looks to securing rev-enue from those sources best able to bear it, and in some of -the States, notably Delaware and Pennsylvania, it has pro-

- greased so far as to eliminate all taxes for State purposes' ifrom real estate. While Florida cannot advance very rapidly in that direction, she should at least take every step forward that her conditions will permit.

The legislation of the last session, taxing the stock of;

Ji

'a--_~ ~ national banks, increasing the revenue from insurance com-panies. securing some interest from the idle moneys in the

i ~i' ' ~ State Treasury, taxing sleeping cars a small percent, of their ~t \~ :~ ~ incomes derived from business in the State, was all in. the

directi n of securing revenue from more fruitful sources, tothe end that the burthen might be better equaliz d, and ulti-mately greatly lowered, upon all classes of property. Thisreport only shows the income from some of those sources for the last five months of 1893. The increase due for 1894, being payable in January of this year, will appear in the next '

annual report from this office. Let us hope that future Legis- '5 -^~~ litures will rep art progress in similar directions.

TAX ON LITIGANTS.

The last Legislature provided for the payment of onedollar before docketing any suit in civil actions in any courts

L*i,~~~ ot the StAite, other than Justices of the Peace. Those who have investigated the question contend that a

very small percentage of the people ever have any need of-;~~ ~ civil suits in our higher courts, but are annually compelled

to play taxes for the payment of jurors and court expenses forthe benefit of the few, m may of whom from disposition andhabit become chronic litigants.

Several States, acting upon this theory, placed a small tax; sometimes a percentage on the amount for which judgment is ;given, sometimes a' jury tax in such civil suits, and a con-siderable revenue is derived from those sources.

In this connection it is proper to suggest that an the'clerk of the Circuit court collects the $1.00 now charged fordocketing civil cases in his court, he should be allowed a per-.centage for the amount collected. If the theory is carriedfurther, and a percentage on the amount of the judgment isrequired, or a jury tax allowed to be collected by the clerk,there is every reason why he should receive a compensatingpercentage.

COLLATERAL INHERBITANCE TAX.

Many of the States collect a revenue from a tax on collat-eral inheritance. Not to lay a burthen upon the immediate-Succession, as-i descent of property from husband to wife, wifeto husband, parent to child, or child to parent; bat only onsuch property as through the protection of the statute comesinto the possession of persons or corporations who have no -

such direct claims upon those from whom it is derived. Whenproperty passes to a new owner who has not such direct claimto it, there can be no reasonable objection to its paying a taxto the State whose laws allow and protect it. It Is a tax that

-;J

is rapidly growing in favor with lawmakers, and while the amount derived in this State might possibly be small for years to come, yet it would be in the direction of advanced financial thought, and tending to the reduction of the tax I' -,rate.

8PECIAL LUGISLATION.;

In some of the States a tax or fee is charged for special or ,

private legislation. And why not? Our Legislature costs., - the taxpayers between eleven and twelve hundred dollars per I

day, and why should the time be spent in considering acts- I '

for special or private purposes, when the public needs require ^ . constant consideration? nme! o ei

i If one will take the time to note the number of pages in :1-|

the published volumes of our laws, devoted to such special; [legislation, the magnitude of the work will be apparent. We have general laws for such purposes, and if they do not suf- i!ficiently cover the field, then broaden them, and prevent the ;Legislative journals from being encumbered with the con-! ,sideration of private and special bills, to the delay and det i-f i ; lriment of the public demands.

The tax or fee should be paid before the measures could be introduced, and be large enough to at least partially corn-| pensate the State for the time lost, and cost of printing and l,binding. Such a law would relieve the Legislature, and giveIXabundant time for the consideration of public business, and ;with proper general laws, work no hardship to citizens or other individuals.

What is the use of general incorporation laws, if public l

legislation is to be delayed by continuous special applications l

for charters ? What necessity for a general banking law, if the law

making power is to be constantly appealed to for special andprivate acts ? To repeat, if the general laws are not sufficientoLmake them so, and let thei time of the Legislature be given to public business. If that time is claimed for pri-ate interests,then let such interests contribute to the expense.

PENSION8.E.l

The report from this office to the last Legislature gave the expenditure for pensions for the previous year at ,;

$36,593.77. Upon this basis there was appropriated $40,-000.00 per annum for pensions. This amount would have i

been abundantly sufficient had it not been for the change in; ,the pension law.

Chapter 4180, Laws of Florida, greatly broadened the scope i2

18

of previous legislation, and necessarily increased the expend-itures. The amount due to day (January 1, 1895). for thelast quarter of 1894, shows conclusively that it will require$55,000.00 annually to meet the expense of those already onthe pension roll. There are now claims before your Excel-lency aggregating $10,000.00 per atnum more, with applica-tions constantly coming in. It was thought by some thatthis last legislation would only add about $5,000.00 to thisclass of expenditures. Experience, however, is d monstrat-ing that it will probably require $30,000.00 annually to me tthe increase made by the last Legislature, making a total ex- -penditure of $70,000.00 per annum for the cost of pensions.

As the amount appropriated f r the first Six months of thepresent year will be exhausted by payments to be made forthe last quarter of 1894, a full annual appropriation will haveto be made for 1895, as well as for 1896.

DEPOS8ITING PUBLIC MONEYS.

Chapter 4157, Laws of Florida, authorizes the Governor,Treasurer and Comptroller to deposit the public moneys inthose banks in the State offering the best inducements as tointerest and security. The revenue derived from that sourcefor the last fiscal year amounted to $2,371.94, mnore thanenough to pay the Treasurer's sa!ary.

The law is in conformity with the practice of many otherStates, and, while bringing in a revenue, will have a mostbeneficial effect in eliminating the position of State Treasurerfrom being a prize to be contested for by moneyed institu-tions. There was a growing feeling with conservative citi-

zens, that there existed a strong tendency in that directionin our own State, and we were drifting to a condition whencapacity would be a secondary consideration to securing thedeposits for particular interests.

When public funds are to be deposited in banks givingthe best inducements as to interest and security, it greatlylessens, if it does not destroy, this prompting motive, aswell as furnishing some pecuniary assist ance to the State.

To require all the various funds of the State to be kept ini~ i~ the State Treasury, would necessitate an additional expense

as well as a discount for collecting warrants in all distant

portions of the State. To obviate that expense as well asthe discounts upon educational, as well as other warrantsdrawn upon the Trea-ury, the public funds have been kept invarious banks in different sections of the State. It is thus aconvenience to the people, but there is no valid reason whythe banks should not furnish security for, and pay interestupon, any surplus they may hold. The law should be more

19 '

CONVENTION BONDS.

The Constitntional ufioat i i zP 1863 issued $.30,000 00of eight per cent bonds to efisay Its expenses, atnd a specialtax was levied to liquidlate thlem. Ail of said bonds were - ipaid except fifte, of $100 each, making a totbal of $1,500.00.

Reports from this office ag;ti. ant agnin referred to the tnon presentation of these bond<, a Id in 1885 they were'dropped from the lists of the State's liabilities, the naturalpresumption being that they had been destroyed or lost.

A few months ago one of these bonds of *100 was presented ,;

at this office for settlement, but, there being no appropriationfor such a purpose, payment had to be deferred for Legtsla-tive action. It is respectfully suggested that the Legisla-ture authorize the Comptroller to draw his warrant on the ItTreasurer for the payment of the principal and interest todate of maturity of any of.these remaining fifteen convention a

bonds that may be presented. ,1LICENSEL FOR BSELLING LIQTUOBRS. i

The State assumes to regulate the sale of spirituous, vinousor malt liquors by granting licenses to sell the same undercertain restrietions. Those licenses, being expensive, lead tonumerous devices to avoid their payment. The trouble isaggravated by the inefficiency of the law to ferret out these idevices and the inadequacy of the penalty should a conviction 'ifollow.

Whan the St-ite issues a liquor license, the holder should 1lbe entitled to the same protection as those who receive -other licenses, and the penalty should be of such magnitude as to deter persons from a violation of the law,

Constant complaints are made by persons holding such li-censes, that the law is being violated, and collectors are !,

powerless, under certain conditions, to procure such evidenceas is necessary to secure convictions. In other cases the

guilty parties temporarily abandon the business upon themeerting of the Circuit Court, and move to other localitiesto continue in disregardilo tbe law. Should, however, a con- viction be secured, a small fine is paid, and the business fre-quently continied.

The evil should be vigorously dealt with. The scope and power of officials shouidl be sufficiently broadened to enable ;

U.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~'

20

them to act promptly and efficiently, and the penalty should,always carry with it imprisonment, as well as a fine amount-ing to at least as much as the State and county tax. It isnot creditable to our laws to have such numerous complaints.of their constant violation.

PRINTING DELINQUENT TAX LISTS.

Owing to a change in the method of advertising the de-

linquent tax lists by Chapter 4111, Laws of Florida, there .was no advertisement of such lists in 1891. The Legislatureof 1893 going back to the former system of tax sales, ren-dered it necessary to advertise the delinquent tax lists of-1892 and 1893, in 1894. This accounts for the unusuallylarge amount of warrants issued under that head during the;past year, the advertisement of two years falling in one.

INSURANCE LAWS.

The development and progress of the business of insurance

necessitates a thorough investigation of the laws bearingupon so important a question. Doubts have arisen as to the:

qualifications of various companies and associations apply-

ing for admission to enter the State. Other associationsand companies are transacting business in the State without.proper authority.

It is believed that many utterly worthless insurance andinvestment schemes are operated to defraud the people.

The State Treasurer, as Chairman of the Board of Insur-ance Commissioners, will present these matters to your Ex-cellency more in detail, and suggest needed changes in the

insurance laws, to the end that no unauthorized company,

however sound, can under any circumstances do business in

the State, and the people at the same time be protected from

insurance and investment schemes organized to swindle.Immense sums of money are drawn annually from our

State fur the purposes of insurance, and it is unfortunate that.

we have not home companies to transact the business, and

thus retain within our limits those accumulations, to be uti-

lized for the development of our varied resources.

0 STATE ATTORNEYS.

I see no reason for changing the suggestion made two

years ago that State attorneys should be paid a salary com-

mensurate with their duties. The more reflection given the

subject, the more cogent the reasons appear.The conviction fees should remain as now established by

21

law, bat they should be collected and paid over to the Countyl'i'Treasurer to assist the counties in meeting the costs in crim-;insal prosecutions.

APPROPRBIATION8 AND DIBICIENCIBS. .iy

The estimates for appropriations are carefully calculated,I -i and it is hoped they will not be lowered unless the laws re- ; i -

quiring the expenditures are changed. If the laws require . .expenditures, the reduction of appropriations does not lessen';

4 the State's obligations, but only creates deficiencies, and there '

is no economy in having deficiencies, as they have to be met. 'The increase of inmates in the Asylum, and the expense in- >

cident to a sewerage system, have produced a shortage in the 4 |appropriation for that institution. ; -

The employment of stenographers was much greater the t as past than the previous years, and it will be necessary to ap- 1 ,Eli

propriate $1,100 to cover such employment. No appropria- tion is asked for that purpose beyond the present deficiency,

* as it is considered that the State is no longer liable for thoee expenses.

It is not deemed necessary, however, to consume the time of the Legislature in passing a deficiency bill for the ,sums that these two appropriations are left in arrears, but -have to the extent necessary added the required amounts to -general appropriation estimates for the last six months ofI ' the present year.' *[

ELEOTIONS.I11'

As it relates to the expenses of government, it is not deemed; ,inappropriate to express the hope that the Legislature will inquire into the necessity of longer continuing the ex- 'penses incident to the methods of having dual elections bi-;,'i'ennially. Leaving out all other considerations, it is an addi- -"Haltional expense to the people, that in the judgment of many,i'is no longer necessary. Such a change would of course re- 1quire an amendment to the constitution. !

A STATE EXAMINER. x

Under Section 2191, Revised Statutes, the Comptroller is iauthorized to appoint a suitable person to make an exami- i

t nationot the affairs of banking companies. The compensa-l v! tion for such examiner is to be at the rate of five dollars for i i

-each day employed in such examination and mileage, to be-;paid by the bank examined, and which may be recovered by1 BUIt against the corporation. !'l

The number of persons qualified to properly examine a; bank is limited, and persons possessing such qualifications, i

'' ' \ i l

' . j,.

22

generally have lucrative employment. They will not sur-render even temporarily their permanent business, and ad-vance their own expenses for such compensation, to be se--cured from the bank examined, at the end of a possible lawsuit.

Under Section 414, Revised Statutes, the Governor is au-thorized to designate an agent for'any county to examinethe accounts, books, etc., of persons authorized to receivepublic moneys. In interviews with your Excellency uponthe question, the difficulty of securing temporarily the ser-vices of competent agents, has been made. manifest. Bothlaws are greatly weakened if not destroyed in their efficiencyby the same cause.

The most efficient way to meet the trouble is to have apublic examiner for the entire State, whose time will be de-yoted exclusively to the work. Such examiner should be ap-pointed for four years, with a salary payable by th * State,that will command a qualified person. [lis duties shouldembrace the examination of banks, as well as the ace uits of.all officers, State and county. All banks examined s iould berequired, under penalty that would entforce prompt compli-ance, to pay a sum into the Treasury of the State sufficient to.cover the expenses and per diem of the examiner while en-gaged in such investigation.

The frequent examination of the accounts of all officerswho handle public moneys, would ;lone secure results thatwould more than compensate the State for the expense- Itwould properly attest the superior worth of ihe largo- num--ber of efficient officers in our State, and stimulate others tofollow their example.

STATE BOARD OF HEALTH.

Warrants amounting to $31,568.29, hav i been issued dur-ing the year on account of expenses of the State Board ofHealth.' The amounts collected at quarantine stations for thelast year and held by the Board, will undoubtedly be commu-nicated to your Excellency in the official report of the StateHealth Officer.

At the request of the Board, your Excellency, under dateof May 21st, 1894, directed this office to "fix the assessmentfor expenses of the State Board of Health at one-half mill."

The gross levy under such assessment amounted to$52,130,31, which is nowv being collected with the otherState taxes.
