The methods employed by tho Argen tine Republic to develop itself have l-d to a crisis both pol.tieal ami financial. Taking a century view of tho situation it may be said that nothing has happen ed. The natural resources of tho coun try are untouched. Only about one jut cent, of the total area of tho country c cullivab-d. Tho other 90 ier cent, re mains unproductive. A country wii" such resources cannot be crippled. It may be arrested in its progress, but af ter a little reflection and h more or lo- thorough examination of the causes of its arrest, it will icsunio Us cottse, though probably at a slower pace. The mistake of the Argentine Republic was in trying to do in a ear what can only be done in a century. It paid a high price for immigrants, borrowed money at high rates of interest, invited foreign capital that bad -no other interest hi the country than to make out of it as large a per cent, as possible, projected enter prises in advance of the conditions of the conntry, and in n general way forced business out of its nat ural gait Ilradetreet's estimates that it has drawn tl,iMD,(l3U,0J3 of forcig.i capital in the last twenty years and h increased its dubt from $l.VJ,OOi),0 t $500,000,000, Iwsides guarantees exteu.l- el to railways and other corporationf.
