MOBILES KEEF HER POOR.
Spain Has Many Pensioners and Suffers
Also From Absenteeism.

Spain Has Many Pensioners and Suffers
Also From Absenteeism.
With such a sun and such soil, why
shouS Spain be poor? Her land is rich
with minerals. Her climate is all that
vegetation requires to he fruitful. This is
mostly true of Italy and Ireland. too, and
the cause of the poverty of these three
countries Is the same. The land is the
property of few mobiles, whose only care
as landlords Is to extract from 1t enough
money to enable them to maintain their
rank and live at ease at the court. The
tenants know that all they put into the
soil only goes to enrich their landlords,
and so, taking example from them, they
lead n careless life, save nothing and make
no effort to increase the productiveness of
their land.
But it is not to these facts that the in
solyency of Spain is due. The people pay
enough taxes to keep the national finances
in sound condition were it not that a
large proportion of the money finds its
way into the pockets of parasites, crea-
lures of the ministry. There are thousands
of needless pensioners, who keep the treas
ury low
Here is an instance of the way the peo-
pies money is spent in pensions 1t ap-
peared in the Madrid newspapers, apropos
Of the marriage Of the pensioner, now an
old man. Many years ago, when Queen
Isabella was on the throne, this nobleman
occupied for one hour only the office of
minister of the interior. He had beer
elected to the cortes, and his father was a
friend of the leader of the opposition, who
had at that moment just been intrusted
| with the formation of n ministry. In this

Guilty. Few deputies would consent to
serve. At last, however he succeeded in
filling all the posts but one, the ministry
j of the interior. Three hours before the
newly appointed ministers were to wait
upon the queen the young hidalgo called
on the new prime minister and presented
a letter Of introduction from his father
and then without hesitation the premier
asked the new deputy, "Will you be min
lister of the INTERIOR"
The young nobloman started in aston
isEment, evidently doubling the question
er $ sanity. But he was treasured, and be
fore he left the Louise he had accepted the
Office. The hd;ilgo had just time to drive
to tailor's and obtain ready made court

by a vote of the cortcs, and within an houl
