  • "LES INTENDANTS DE FRANCHE-COMTE 1674-1790. DES LA SECONDE CONQUETE ET AVANT MEME LA SIGNATURE DE LA PAIX, LE POUVOIR ROYAL MET EN PLACE DANS LA PROVINCE, UNE ADMINISTRATION NOUVELLE CALQUEE SUR LE MODELE FRANCAIS. LE PREMIER INTENDANT ARRIVE SEUL AVEC UN SECRETAIRE ET DES GARDES, MAIS PEU A PEU LES AFFAIRES A TRAITER DEVIENNENT PLUS NONBREUSES ET TOUCHENT DES DOMAINES DE PLUS EN PLUS DIVERS, LES SERVICES DE L'INTENDANCE SE DEVELOPPENT, DES BUREAUX SE SPECIALISENT SELON LES NOUVEAUX BESOINS DE L'ADMINISTRATION. L'INTENDANT CENTRALISE SES BUREAUX, SES SECRETAIRES ET LEURS COMMIS A BESANCON, CAPITALE DE LA PROVINCE. IL A CEPENDANT BESOIN DE SE TENIR INFORMER EN DETAIL DE TOUT CE QUI SE PASSE DANS LA PROVINCE ET DE FAIRE VEILLER A CE QUE SES ORDONNANCES SOIENT RESPECTEES: C'EST LE ROLE DES SUBDELEGUES INSTALLES DANS CHACUN DES QUINZE BAILLIAGES QUE COMPTE LA FRANCHE-COMTE. L'AUTORITE DE L'INTENDANT, COMMIS PAR LE ROI, EST TRES ETENDUE ET N'EST LIMITEE QUE PAR LE CONTENU DE LA COMMISSION ROYALE. EN PRATIQUE, L'INTENDANT NE DEPEND QUE DU MINISTRE, LE SECRETAIRE D'ETAT A LA GUERRE DANS LE CAS DE LA FRANCHE-COMTE, A LA FOIS PROVINCE CONQUISE ET PROVINCE FRONTIERE. IL GERE LES AFFAIRES PUBLIQUES, ORDRE PUBLIC, IMPOSITIONS, JUSTICE ET LES AFFAIRES PRIVEES A TRAVERS LES REQUETES QUI LUI SONT ADRESSEES. EN FRANCHE-COMTE, IL EST AUSSI UN INTENDANT D'ARMEE A CAUSE DE LA GUERRE SOUVENT PROCHE DE LA PROVINCE ET DES TROUPES QUI LA TRAVERSENT OU Y PRENNENT LEURS QUARTIERS D'HIVER. L'INTENDANT EST L'HOMME DU ROI DONT IL EXERCE L'AUTORITE DANS LA PROVINCE, MAIS AUSSI L'HOMME DE LA PROVINCE DONT IL S'EFFORCE DE FAIRE COMPRENDRE AU POUVOIR LES SPECIFICITES ET DE DEFENDRE LES INTERETS. DE JUIN 1674 A MAI 1790, PENDANT CENT QUINZE ANS, QUINZE INTENDANTS SUCCESSIFS, TOUS MAITRES DES REQUETES ONT ADMINISTRE LA PROVINCE, DANS UNE GRANDE STABILITE CAR LA PLUPART, TRES APPRECIES DE LEURS ADMINISTRES, RESTENT EN POSTE PENDANT DE LONGUES PERIODES."
  • "INTENDANTS IN FRANCHE-COMTE 1674-1790. AS EARLY AS THE SECOND CONQUEST, AND EVEN BEFORE THE PEACE TREATY WAS SIGNED, THE ROYAL POWER SET UP IN THE PROVINCE A NEW ADMINISTRATION IN IMITATION OF THE FRENCH SYSTEM. THE FIRST "INTENDANT" ARRIVED ALONE WITH A SECRETARY AND GUARDS, BUT GRADUALLY THE AFFAIRS TO BE TREATED BECAME MORE NUMEROUS AND CONCERNED A GREATER NUMBER OF DIVERSE FIELDS, THE "INTENDANCE" SERVICES DEVELOPED, THE OFFICES BECAME SPECIALIZED ACCORDING TO THE NEW REQUIREMENTS OF THE ADMINISTRATION. THE INTENDANT CENTRALIZED HIS OFFICES, HIS SECRETARIES AND THEIR ASSISTANTS IN BESANCON, THE CAPITAL OF THE PROVINCE. HOWEVER HE NEEDED TO BE KEPT MINUTELY INFORMED OF ALL THAT TOOK PLACE IN THE PROVINCE, AND TO HAVE HIS EDICTS ENFORCED. THAT WAS THE RESPONSABILITY OF SUB-DELEGATES APPOINTED IN EACH OF THE FIFTEEN "BAILLIAGES" IN FRANCHE-COMTE. THE AUTHORITY OF THE KING NOMINATED INTENDANT WAS WIDE RANGING, AND ITS LIMITS WERE THE KING'S ORDERS. PRATICALLY, THE INTENDANTS ONLY DEOPENDED ON THE MINISTER, THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR DEFENCE IN THE CASE OF FRANCHE-COMTE, BOTH A CONQUERED AND A BORDER PROVINCE. HE DEALT WITH PUBLIC MATTERS, PUBLIC ORDER, TAXES, JUSTICE AND PRIVATE MATTERS TROUGH THE APPLICATIONS THAT WERE TO HIM. IN FRANCHE-COMTE, HE WAS ALSO A MILITARY INTENDANT BECAUSE THE WAR OFTEN BEING FOUGHT NEAR THE PROVINCE AND OF THE REGIMENTS THAT CROSSED IT OR HAD THEIR WINTER-QUARTERS THERE. THE INTENDANT WAS THE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE KING WHOSE AUTHORITY HE EXERCED IN THE PROVINCE, BUT HE WAS ALSO THE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE PROVINCE WHOSE CHARACTERISTICS HE TRIED TO MAKE KNOWN AND WHOSE INTERESTS HE TRIED TO DEFEND. FROM JUNE 1674 TO MAY 1790, FOR A HUNDRED AND SIXTEEN YEARS, FIFTEEN INTENDANTS, ALL THEM COUNSELS OF THE "CONSEIL D'ETAT" SUCCESSIVELY ADMINISTRED THE PROVINCE WHITH GREAT STABILITY, FOR MOST OF THEM, VERY APPRECIATED BY THE POPULATION, STAYED AT THEIR POSTS FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME."
