Comparison of the total appropriations
with those Of the corresponding session
OF the Fifty-sixth Congress shows an
increase during the first session of the
tltty-seventh amounting to $40, ,2S5 o2o =
50. Increases are made in the Agricul-
tural, Diplomatic, the District of Colum-
bia, Legislative, Naval, Military Aca-
DENY, Postofice and Deficiency Appro-
priation Bills, while the River and Har-
Dor Bill and Isthmian Canal Bills are
increases in their entirety.
While the expenditures seem vast
sum, and are, the fact should be borne
in mind that they are justified by the
receipts of the government, and that the
national debt, which for so many years
was bugaboo is in process OF extinc-
tion at a more rapid rate than was
dreamed possible few years ago.
Standing alone, the expenditures would
indicate preseut-day extravaganza and
accumulation of debt But the popu-
lation OF the United States increased
from s,3o3.483 in 1850 to 76,265,z7 IN
1900, and the government revenue from
SIo,S4S,74o to S567,2'oS52. The wealth

the Spanish capital possesses-one
cannot say "enjoys"-an evil pre-em

European capitals. Its death rate for
the past five .-ears has been about 33
per 1,000-much more than one-third
higher than the average death rate of
London.
Consumption is the chief cause of
death. which is not surprising for the
keen, icy breeze from the Guadarra-
ma, which, as the Spaniards say, will
not put out a candle, but will kill a
man." must be fatal to consumptive
patients.
The root of the mischief seems to
be food adulteration and overcrowd-
ing, for 100000 people are contained
in 1900 houses. That is a state of
things for which there is no excuse,
unless it be the eternal want of
pence" for there is room enough and
to spare on the vast bare plain which
surrounds Madrid to build houses
enough to accommodate any number
of people. The municipality is going
to take the matter in hand. but ex-
perience teaches us what that means
