The national debt of Spain is equiv
alent to one-ffth of the whole wealth
of the Kingdom, or ninety-fonr dollars
per capita. The annual interest is six
dollars per capita. The debt of the
United States is less than one-one'
hundred-and-f -fftieth of our wealth.
and the interest is but fifty-three
cents to each of our population. Our
total valuation in 1890 was one thou
sand and thirty-six dollars per capita !;
theirs only four hundred and sixty
dollars. This means that the people
OF Spain are taxed on their debt alone
nearly twelve times as high as we,
with little more than two-fifths the
means to pay. If we measure theiI
burden by their financial strength, !,
is nearly thirty times as heavy as ours
Unhappy Spain, the victim of incom-
petent and dishonest rulers, and Of a
cruel colonial policy which has ex-
hausted Its home resources!
