Everyone of these gentlemen ex- pressed to me the firm conviction that it was all well worth the price and that they heartily approved"
 The bankers said then, he said, that the country safely could stand a national debt of between fifty five and seventy billion dollars.
 eff the bankers thought the country could stand a debt of fifty five to seventy billion dollars in 1883, with val0es as they were then, I wonder what they would say the country could stand to-day, in the light of an enormous increase of values of property of all kinds ali along the 1ince since 1885," he asked.
