Notwithstanding he was
once a Postmaster General
and is now a Sunday school
superintendent there are many
people who believe John Wan-
namaker- is telling- the truth miles, it is evident that our original
New Mexico have since been
created.
In .1853 the United States
purchased from Mexico 30,000
square miles, at a cost of $10,
000,000, and this new acquisi
tion now forms a part of New-
Mexico and Arizona. In 1867
Alaska was purchased from
Russia at a cost of $7,200,000,
the area secured embracing
577,390 square miles. The
Atlanta Constitution from
which these figures have been
compiled, recapitulating, says
that the various acquisitions of
territory to the United States
have been as follows :
"I .
"From France, in 1803, 1198,000
square miles; 58,680 square miles
from Spain in 1819, 325,000 square

squre miles from Mexico in 1848,
30,000 square, miles from Mexico in
1853. and 577,390 square miles from
Russia m 1867 making a total of
2,839,070 square miles. It also ob
