Spain Compared with the
United States.

The puhlic debt of Spain is
sl,55O,coO,Oo0, and she has only
100000 of people, giving each
inhabitsnt a debt of $78. The
purchasing power Of money in
Spain is almost twice rs great as
it ia in the United States; while
at tho same time, labor is very
cheap. The interest accruing on
this debt annually is S55,G0O,00O,
and her total government receipts
from duties collected at the Gus
tom houses are only $35,000,000,
or e2O,0O0,0O0 less than the inter
est on the public debt. 1t costs
about SoO0,O0O,00O q year to run
the Spanish government, which
must be heavy burden to her
small population Of sixteen mill
ions. Nothing that a Spaniard
owns is exempt from taxation.
That government must, in the
near future, fail financially. The
wheels of progress seem to be
locked, and nothing but gloomy
forebodings stand out before her.
A war with her Cuban subject is
very heavy as it is such q great
distance from her. The public
debt ofthe United States is even
less than that Of Spain, and she
with 100000 people, making
her Indebtedness less than ST.
per capita. The annual income
of the United States is abou
$3O0,000,000 q year, and SO mucf
of it is used in paging the ourren
expenses and then some to thu
liquidation of the public debt
The treasury department of thu
government reports at this tint
money plenty to defray the ex
penses Of the government ant
still have a surplus. The onl,
trouble we have is in mantainin,
the gold reserve. We have ever,
year since the war feen able t,
liquidate some Of our debt. TIL
United States is as yet undevel
oped in her resources, and no
indebtedness is of no consider
alton to her ability. A happ
and prosperous country Gus!

Events of the Coming
Year.

The coming year will be peri
cd of memorable in tho history of
the world, if but q part Of the
plans of the United States Gov.
eminent and European nations is
carried out. In the United
States there Will be the livliest
presidential campaign ever held,
and the Fifty-fourth Congress,
now in session, will furnish OK
ceedingly interesting debates D.
the tariff and financial questions
until Jnne. There will be sever
al exciting State elections, and
many great political speeches.
Everyone will watch with interest
the progress Of the Veaezuelan
Commissions inquiry, the results
Of the wars in Cuba, in South
Africa, in Turkey, and the out.
come Of other complications now
arising in the Old World.
1t is q remarkable coincidence
that at the beginning Of a year OF
such rich promise of stirring newa
the greatest metropolitan news
paper in the United States-The
st. Louis Republic-should re.
duce it's price to 5000 year, OF
to less than two cents day
This low price now places the
Republic within the reach Of
everyone. Those who wish tC
keep posted on politics, trade
national or international affairs
during 1895 should at once aub
scribe for it on these easy terms
in addition to taking their owl
local paper.
Newspaper readers who ma,
think they cannot afford to TAXI
a metropolitan daily paper should
at least subscribe for the "Twice
a-Week" Republic-104 papers ,
year-for only a1.00 a year. I
contains the best Of every thing
that appears in the dnily.
