what they and what is for the A I take Hie liberty of repeating my rcc to the legislative assem bly in behalf of the early lawa for the establishment of a coherent financial or revenue whereby taxation shall be made more uniform and Die public revenues classified and and provision Whereby the expenses of the territory may he paid instead of depreciated and thus greatly As of I That the of
