assessed at an average of 75 per cent Of

There has been no increase practically
In the wealth in thirty years, although in
the ten years between 1850 and 1850 the
per capita wealth nearly doubled, rising
from 1891 to 1893, OF which only gel was
from the discover, of gold.
In 1859 the wealth of this country was
very evenly distributed; there were no
multt-millionaires, very few m~illionaires,
few large fortunes. No special wealth
statistics were collected, but the censu
OF 1850 shows half the wealth In posses
sion OF half the people. There were no
bonanza farm and no tenant farmers.
One half the male workers. were on farms
they owned, and the average land value Of
each farm was 1881. while few went
much over or under. Poverty WAS con-
fined TO cities, and to small sections of
them. 1t is perfectly safe to assert that
81 per cent of the people held in fair and
even measure 81 per cent OF the wealth,
while Z per cent Of the people owned the
remaining 8 per cent, leaving not more
than s per cent practically paupers.
