The document is quite lengthy but

United States at brief intervals since
tho year 1900, down to and in many
instances including the year 1911. In
those cases in which the subjects con-
sidered are measured by governmental
fiscal year periods, the figures for the
fiscal year 1911 are included; in those
in which calendar year periods are
used. of course, statements can only
terminate with the calendar year 1910.
Among the interesting facts shown
are that the area of continental United
States was 843,255 square miles In
1900, advancing to 1884, $50 square
miles in 1910; to 1896, 536. square miles
in 1850; and 3,O26, 7Se square miles in
1853, since which date no change In
area is shown. The population, which
was 5 1-3 million in 1900, was SO 3.4
million in 1911. Public debt, which
was $50, o0o,O00 in 1900, reached 81, $751;
900 less cash in treasury in 1865, the
figures of 1911 being $1,015,000, 900.
The, per capita debt, which was 1883
in 1900, and in 1865 $7e.9s, is in 1911
$10.83. The interest charge per cap
tia, which amounted to 81 cents in
1900, and $4.12 in 1866, was in 1911
% cents, and the total annual interest
charge, which was in 1866 STAG, 600, 900,
was in 1911 $21 1-3. Money in cir
culation stated as $26,500,000 in
1900. was in 1911 $3,22S,627, 0o2, and
the per capita circulation, which was
in 1900 $4.99 was in 1911 $34.35. De.
posts in all banks in the country can
not be shown earlier than in 1875. at
which date they are set down as lit
tie over $4,000, 000,0 and in 1910 over
$4,000, 100000. The number of depos-
itors in saving banks in 1920, the
earliest year for which the figures
can be shown, was little less than
$4,000; and in 1910 over 100000.
Government receipts, which amounted
to $2.W per capita in 1900, were in
1866, SASS. and in 1911, $7.45, or
about one-half what they were in 1866.
Exports of domestic merchandise
which amounted to $4,000, 900 in value

by Louis Kossuth, the great Hungar-
