Comrnissionet-s, to ixamine into the affairs
i;f tho CMiuty. presented the following
report '
Wilmington, N C., Jan. 20, 1877.
To the 1 ax-Payers of Kew Uanovcr county:
You r Committco" have carefully consid
ered the affairs of the county to such an
extent as they have so far been able, with
the assistance of Messrs. Wagner, Worth
and Grainger, of the County Commission
and bg leave respoctfuUorreport :
FLOATING DEBT.
From tlio. account laid before us. we
find the Hoatin debt of the countv. as
jVnear as can be ascertained, to be not ex-
ctreding $35,000, of which about $8,279.
9S is in shape of judgments awarded by
the Courts, and the balanco in warrants
of the Chairman of the Board on the
County Treasurer aud in witness tickets.
BONDED DEBT.
The bonded debt, as reported by the
Board, is $35,000, on which .interest (in
gold) at 0 per cent, per annum is paid,
and lor which a special tax has been and
ma- continue, to be levied to cover interest
and" principal.' This matter requires no
attention at your hands, save to ( enjoin
the Board to carefully -and sacredly
maintain this sinking fund for the pur
poses for which it Was and will be col
lected, that no difficulty may arise in
promptly paying the interest as due aud
the principal at maturity. These bonds
fall due March 1st, 1879.
UUHEXT EXPENSES.
The estimated expenses of the county
from January to September iuclusive,
nine months, are $25,030; and as the
county is entirely destitute of funds, and
hw.s n means of raising money, except
fro'.n ' Schedule B" tax, this amount
must be provided for by a special levy to
cover the deficiency, the "Schedule B" tax
being barely sufficient to pajr the expenses
of the Superior Court for'the January and
April Terms.
. ANNUAL EXPENSES.
After a -thorough canvass of the past
ami' probable expenses of the county gov
ernment, in all its branches, your Com
mittee are satisfied that it cannot be con
ducted for less than $33,000 per annum
with a proper and faithful maintenance
of the public institutions and' the courts
as at present provided for.
SOURCES OF REVENUE..
Sundry facts in this connection must be
borne, in mind viz; The Constitution
prohibits a tax levy for State and county
purposes exceeding C63 ctson $100 valu
ation of feal and personal property. Out
side of this source of revenue are the taxes
on incomes polls and under schedule B,
and from the State as compensation for
t he care of insane at the county hospital,
judging from the past you can only de
pend upon : say from income tax $900,
polls $1,000, for care of insane $1,200,
and from Schedule B $12,400. In. esti
mating this last item we would explain,
that in the last published report of the
Treasurer the revenue from this source "13
put down as $6,183.03.
Your Committee are firmly of the opin
ion that the county is grossly imposed
upon by parties listing much below what
tli -y should injustice to themselves and
ti. county -; aud we have no hesitation in7
s.ty-ii'g that we believe, that if the law
wuv .strictly cniorccu mat me receipts
from ii:;s source would be at leastdouble
whai'it was . last year. Ileuco our esti
mate of $12,-100. These estimates make
1 total of $15,500, .which being deducted
' Report of the Grand Jury.
The Grand, Jury at this Term of Su
perior Court submitted yesterday through
their Foreman, Mr. John II. Alien, a re-
port.in regard to public buildings. They
found the Jail aud Poor House well kept
and. the prisoners and inmates r ported
that thev were kiuuiv carta lor. lucre
are now 13v paupers
iu the .Peer House
of whom 7. are colored, the coiors as well
as the sexes, being kejjd carefully separate.
In the jail there are 25 mate -and 2 female
prisoners and the repjort commends Gen.
Manning, the Sheritfj for the clcaidineos
and wholesome arrangements in effect
-. i
there.
The Jury recommended that a portion
of the Jail wall which is broken down be
repaired; the Grand Jury room be heated
with a stove ; that tha Court House prem
ises receive some ncedetl attention and
the making up
oftH
be hereafter placed ia the hands of th.2
Register of Deeds;
Jelinqueut ta lists
Eggs ; have dropped down t 'hirty
cents. ;;'Vf., r " ' '-
fn.'hi the total. $33,000, leaves $17,500 to
be provided for by a, tax on7 real (and per
soiial propc. ty. . '
As it is now licccssary to provide not
only for the current expenses for the first
nine months of this year, Jbut also for the
next ensuing fiscal ye lr, it becomes neces
sary to make a calculation on what will
be required until October 1st, 1878, a pe
riod of "XX mouth.
Taking the estimate for niue months,
$25,00Ojind for l he next twelve months,
$335000: make in all $58,000. During
this period there will be three levies tinder
Sche'dule B, making $18,600, and one
levy each from other sources referred to,J
say 3,100, cr a total of $21,700, wbicb,
detlucted from the above total, leaves
$30,300 to be raised from real and per
sonal property, and requiring a levy of
about 72 counts on the $100 valuation,
and which, on the basis of last year's tax
es, (38 cents being levied for State pur
poses, leaving only 28J cents for the
county) would be a special tax of nearly
4i cents 0:1 the $100 for the 21 months.
VALUATION OK EEALTT AND PE3S0NALTT.
The valuation . of real and . personal
property in the county was $6,000,000.
This beinir the Year in which anew1 valu
ation is required, in present condition of
affairs we may reasonably expect to see
this reduced to $5000,000,upon which we
now base our estimates.
It is especially desirable, that . all sup
plies for tne county should bo purchased
on & cosh basis, and thus save a heavy
portion of the expenses heretofore in
curred.
The question then arises: how cau this
be done? ;
It is obvious that there arc ouly two
ways to meet the emergency prenising
that there is no disposition on the part of
the people to defraud, their creditors by
repudiating their just claims one being
to borrow the money, the other to levy a
special tax to cover past ana tQturo ex
penses. , .-;- I. !'.
The tax levy is made in April and due
and payable in September cf each year.
There is no money on hand except the
ouiiviug mna, wiucn cannot oe used lor
general purposes, and the receipts, from
Schedule B with which to meet court ex
penses, consequently to meet present ne
cessities money must be borrowed in any
event. . .
If power is granted by tho Legislature
to levy a special tax to cover the estimates
aborc made, this tax will not be available
before September next. Meantime we are
assured that. with this powsr granted by
the Legislature, and tbc adoption of a
resolution by the, Cbunty Coiinissioaers
promising io pay warrants issued " subse
quent to a certain date, say .February 1,
xoi 1, im iwit-icix, ,uu o per cent.-per an
num, out of the receipts of taxes as thev
come in, that the banks of this city will
ash such warrants at their faccvaluu and
hold them as provided. This arrthgement
would permit the government to f be con
ducted on a cash basis. - E
The floating debt should be provided
for as to throw its burthen over a; term of
years, and as it is impossible for the county
to borrow money, lor a term of years, on
any other ; pledge than . bonds duly au
thorized; and, as under the', constitution,
no municioal corporation may issue bonds
except under-. the authority,, first of the
Legislature, and then by approval of the
qualified voters, such authority must bc7
obtained. ; (
Your Committee would therefore recom-
mend the adoption of the following reso
lutions : (
.First. Resolved; That the County Com
missioners he requested to apply, to the
Legislature for power to levy a special tax
to provide for the current expenses of the
county for the first nine mouths of the'year
1877 not excedmg the sum of $25,000, less
the receipts from other sources. !
Second, That the Board be further re
quested to ask for the same authority, to
issue bonds of the county hearing-six per
cent, interest, payable in January, 1887,
to an. extent not exceeding-$35,000, said
bonds to be issued at not less1 than their
par value, and for the sole purpos of set
tling the floating debt of the County, con
tracted j rjvious to the 1st day of Janu
ary, 1877, and to be exchanged Ifor the
described judgments and warrants on
such equitable terms as may be agreed
upon .-between thp Commissioners and
the said creditors. ' I'
Third,. That the Board be requested ty
apply for tho same authority to I levya
special tax to cover the excess of expenses
over estimated revenue for the fiscalyear
of 1877-78, not exceeding in the'aggre
gate $3,200, this being the fulf4mount
of such estimated excess. i
The time at our disposal so far hris not
permitted any investigationoY theevcral
county officers' acbounts, jtnd we can not;
therefore, express any opinion as to the
validity or justice ofthe claims figainst
the county, included in the estimate of
the county debt. This will take time
and a vast amount of labor, and we must
ask further indulgence until the; whole
matter can be thoroughly looked into.
All of which is respectfully 'submit ted.
