I read: Ten years ago Canada was buying only $56000000 worth of American goods. Today. despite the raise in the Canadan tariff. $125.000.000 worth of American imports yearly enter the Dominion. Canadas exports to Great Britain represent almost the same. doubling at a bound in ten years . and the entrance of 20.000 immigrants in 1894 has gone up to nearly 154.000 In 1904. of whom 50.000 are Americans. citizens of the United States. What is the index of the comparative prosperity of two countries? That people with common sense leave the less prosperous of the two in order to seek prosperity upon the shores of the more prosperous of the two.
