My friends. that prophecy. in my opinion. has come true. Sedgwick. of Massachusetts. 120 years ago never dreamed of the extent the United States would be in territory. but he did foresee that as our country filled up the older countries of the other hemisphere would fill up faster. and that the overflow would become less desirable in every decade and must become still more undesirable as every 10year period rolls by. This is exactly what has happened since it ceased to be possible for an Immigrant to go straight through the gates at New York to free acres in the Weststraight through. with a ticket pinned to his shoulder and a smile of happy expectancy in his face. Those days are gone. He jams into the cities.
