The creation of national debts is not
a modern improvement, but the ability
Of a great nation TO provide for a great
debt, and to make it the most conve-
nient and best form Of personal prop
erty, Is a modern wonder The debt of
Great Britain was begun by raising
million sterling by loan in 1892, aud
xhen her great contest with Louis
XIV, was terminated, the debt had
reached ifty millions Many states
men and economists were then alarmed
at the great burden which had been
imposed upon the industry Of the coun-
Try, but when the war of the Austrian
succession had swelled this amount TO
eighty millions, Macaulay Gays that his
torians and orators pronounced the
case to be desperate. But when war
again broke out, and the national debt
was rapidly carried up TO one hundred
and forty millions, men Of theory and
business both pronounced that the
fatal day had certainly arrived David
Hume said that, although, by taxing its
energies to the utmost, the country
raieht possibly live through it, the ex-
pertinent must never be repeated
even a small increase might be fatal
Granville said the nation must sink
under it unless some portion OF the
Load was borne by the American Colo
mes, and the attempt to impose this
load produced the war OF the reyo-
| luton, and, instead of diminishing, ad-
dei another hundred millions to the
burden. Again, says Macaulay,
was England given over, but again she
was more prosperous than ever before
But when at the close other Napoleonic
wars in 1916, this debt had been swell
ed up 10 the enormous sum Of over
eight hundred million sterling, or four
thousand three hundred million dol
lars. or nearly one half the entire prop
erty Of the United Kingdom, the stout
est heart. the firmest believer in nation
al progress and national development,
might well have been appalled,. But
/ IN the very face Of this mountain ofob.
ligation-to say nothing Of her vast
colonial possessions-the property Of
the British nation has been more than
| trebled, and her debts now a charge Of
but y! per cent against it. All that
Great Britain has done in paying her
debt, we shall do, and more, with ours
We have vast territories untouched by
the pillow, mines of all precious metals
of which we have hardly opened the
doors, a population fun Of life, en-
ergy, enterprise and industry, and the
accumulated wealth ofmoney and labor
of the old countries pouring into the
lap Of our giant and ever to-be-united
republic. During the fiercest and most
exhausting of all possible wars, we have
demonstrated our national strength
and all the world over, national strength
is but another name for national credit
LAS good as United States Stocks will
soon be Synonymous the world over with
'as good as British Consols.' For our
part, we think a Z. S Treasury note
bearing seven aud three-tenths annual
interest is just as much better than
British Consols as the rate ofinterest is
higher. Some of our timid brethren,
who shipped their gold to London and
invested in consols, are now glad to sell
out and invest at home at a round loss
