Since the last biennial report from this office, the war and defense four per cent warrants, issued under chapter 199, Laws of 1880, amounting to $125,000.00 and the last of the war and defense bonds then outstanding, for the sum of $2,500.00, have been redeemed and canceled; and it affords me much pleasure through you, sir, as their chief executive, to congratulate the people of Iowa upon the fact that the State is once more practically out of debt, her finances in a sound and prosperous condition and her executive business wisely and economically administered.

The following statement, numbered eleven, is an exhibit of an apparent indebtedness which is not real, as the State owes no one but herself.
