As a matter of fact. the natural direction for commerce to move on this continent and in the world is across parallels of latitude. The north and south movement is about to commence. Our country is now practically fully occupied. There is no longer any considerable westward movement of our population. On the contrary. immigration on this continent has been deflected. and an army of farmers are crossing our northern boundary and occupying the wheat lands of Canada. Already. and within the last twelve months. 100.000 men have left this country and crossed into Canada. The peaceful conquest of that country has commenced.
