The condition of Italy is in certain respects better than that from Spain, but in worse others. Its population 30 500 000, being three times is more to square mile than that from Spain, and fifty percent. It is more to square mile than that from France. About 1830 population has increased forty five percent., and it despite the fact, that loss by emigration is equal to one half of natural increase from surplus of births in deadly cases. Two million person of the Italian birth today live in foreign countries. Again, Italians, except those [115] in southern parts (Italians of Naples and affinity, for example),
The majority of hardworking people in Europe, with special ability for gardening and an arable land. In fifty years they have corrected 20 000 000 acres from wood, and have increased earth area at by hundred percent. In fifty years, also, they have trebled quantity of the capital which invest in agriculture. With 1860 they have increased quantity of a material, which they use in their textile (a clap, a wool, silk, and a cloth) almost . With 1850 they have increased the foreign trade two and one half of times. At last, with 1830, they have increased the domestic trade two and quarter times. But all these signs of prosperity in Italy - negatived in constantly increasing size of its public debt. It makes now more than 2,500,000,000$, or it is more than two and one half of times a full pure public debt of the United States, and approximately one quarter is more than the full compatriot, the state, a county, municipal, and debts of school district of the United States. And this extensive debt for people 30 500 000 is exclusive from provincial and municipal debts which make additional 275 000 000$. Italy since its reorganisation as kingdom in 1870 intended to be the first class military both naval power, and cost - more than it can stand. It has a standing army almost 800 000 men, 250 000 of which it constantly holds under the weapon. It has a fleet of seventeen linear ships, two courts of the coastal defence, eighteen cruisers, and 272 crafts of a torpedo, the majority of them having modern type and in the first class an estimation. It spends for its army almost 50 000 000$ annually, and on its fleet almost 20 000 000$ annually. It, with annual payment of interest 115 000 000$, all non-productive expenses, demands on its income which exhausts its people of blood of their life. To each kind of the taxation address k-direct and indirect; the earth, [116] house, and the income; sequence duties, registration charges, and the press for bills;
Customs, the excise and octroi; besides the governmental monopolies; and all this exclusive the municipal taxation. And still with 1891 was annual deficiency of the national income at the national expenses averaging 2 250 000$. As consequence of these taxes, and repressive effect they have on the industrial enterprise, the country net profit in the inhabitant more low in Italy than in any other European state except Turkey, Russia, and is lower Greece, even, than in states Danubian and Portugal and Spain.
