AS TO NATIONAL DEBTS
Spain's Financial Condition Compared
With That of Other Nations

A table has been published which shows
that Spain owes about one-thirtAas much
as England, and about one-half as much
as Italy, and about one-quarter as much
as France in the way of national debt, and,
while the debt per capita of Spain Is $7J,
that of Great Britain is $751; of Italy $7g,
and of France $116. These figures are mis-
leading. for they do not take into account
two important elements-first, the wealth
of the country, and, second, its credit. For
instance. the debt per capita of Holland
is $9556. That of Italy is $76.06. Ostensibly
the burden of debt is heavier in Holland
than in Italy, but the facts are otherwise.
Eolland is wealthy country; the people
are thrifty; the internal taxes are light;
the commerce is large and the profits of
it's colonial possessions are enormous.
Italy is poor country it has few manu-
factures, and it has practically no money
invested abroad. The aggregate wealth
of Italy. including land. live stock, mer-
ehandise, ships, gold, silver, railways
buildings and personal effects, averages
about $500 for each inhabitant. In Holland
the average wealth is $500 for each inhab-
itant, and the Dutch can, therefore, much
better sustain the national debt of $95 each
on the average than can the Italians the
debt of SIG.

an enviable one among European nations.
English consols paying 2N per cent sell at
about liz, and It may be said roughly that
the English government can borrow all the
money 1t needs and good deal more, no
doubt, at an average rate of ~ per cent.
The Spanish government loans pay osten-
sibly per cent, but Spanish bonds are SELL
ing at less than one-third their face value.
Actually, therefore, the Spanish govern
ment is paying II per cent on the money
borrowed-a ruinous rate when compared
with England's 2h. Spain's total debt is
equivalent to about 81. $50 900 900, and Eng
lands to s3,sO0, 900 900, but the wealth Of
Great Britain Is four times greater and It's
credit is five times as good.
In all computations Of national debt still
another error has come to be general.
Frances debt per inhabitant is now $11S,
while that of Germany is only 31.s7. This
disparity would be very difacuit to explain
we're II not known that each Of the coun-
tries or political divisions making up the
German empire has separate debt of its
own. For instance, Bavaria has debt Of
s4oO, 900, 900 Q,73O, 900 900 marks) and Wur-
temburg has debt Of 500 900 900. both larger

JUST HOW DEWEI WON
Daniel Doble Explains the Vermonter's
Tricks to His Ross County Friends

When the news of Dewey's victory reach
ed Pennyroyal, in Ross county, Ohio, and
that was not many days ago. it caused no
excitement, and there was no celebration
of any kind, but on Saturday night John
Bridges store was crowded with men who
wanted to hear a description of the battle
by Daniel Doble and an explanation of
some things that were not understood.
'Whut 1 can't git through my nodde.'
said Pontius Anderson, 'is how none o. th'
Spanish cannon balls didn't go right
through our boats jest tn same as our
balls went through theirn."
Simple enough" said Daniel Doble,
cause our boats is made O. soft metal,
an theirn's made O. brittle. Ev'ry time
old Dewey hit Spanish boat her sides
cracked jest like they wuz glass, but when
a ball hit Dewey's 1t was diffrunt TIL
metal bein' soft, 1t closed over th' balls
when they struck, not leavin' hole-jest
the same uz eff you threw marble int a

ketched on sooner mebby Dewey'd had a
hard time. They seen tn soft metal was
th' best, SO they het up their boat, tn last
enc, they had. TIL hotter 1t got, tn better

Dewey seen the balls from his boats
wuzn't doin' no hurt, an he seen TIL trick,

devices used to assist In making rooms

steep, but don't care for that for the girl

"All right. sir" said the clerk, and up to
the second floor they went, and talked of
the price per week on one of the best rooms
in the house.
Eyes, this is sinner" said the man from
Cripple Creek, "'bout the smoothest thing

hesitated and looked over itcarefully again.

he reached the office, remarked:

SNAKE WITH A sT1NaER

thinking 1t was rattler, looked at 1t to see
why it did not rattle, as such snakes always
Go. This examination proved that the snake
was not a rattler. 1t had a stubby tail
blunt and hard, which looked almost as
much like the head of snake as the head
itself. I noticed when looking at this tail
that the snake turned 1t upward, and what
l took to be a stinger darted out quickly;
lightning-like, and threatening. I at once
placed forked stick on its head to prevent
any danger from that quarter, and neigh
