THE PROGRESS OF THE CANA.
DIAN WEST.
Nearly 100000 OF an Increase In
Canadian Immigration in 1906.

Nearly 100000 OF an Increase In
Canadian Immigration I'm 1906.
The progress of a new country cannot
be better ascertained than by noting
the increase of railroad mileage in its
transportation system, and judged by
this standard, the Canadian West leads
all the countries in the world during
the current year. Thirty years ago
there was not one hundred miles OF
railroad west of the Great Lakes, and
very little prospect of a t~ransconti-
mental route for many years to come,
but by the end of 1885 the Canadian
Pacific Railway was within measurable
distance of completion, and last year,
twenty years later, fully 5000 miles OF
railroad traversed the provinces or
Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta.
IN the past year the work of railroad
construction has been vigorously prose
cuted. and by the end of 1906, some
5000 miles of completed railroad has
been added, making a total or FULLY
1000 miles in the three great grain
producing provinces OF Canada. Such
an increase in the transportation facili-
ties of the country is bound to make
good times not only in the districts
where the railroads are being built,
but throughout the entire west. Allow
ing $4,000 a mile for construction, the
sum OF 500, 600, 900 will be put in cir
culation, and this in itself should cause
good times to prevail In a land where
work is plentiful. wages are high, and
the cost OF living is moderate.
But the building of new railroads
through Western Canada means a
greater benefit 10 the country than
merely the money put in circulation by
the cost OF construction. Additional
railway building means the Opening or
new agricultural districts and an addi-
creased output of grain to foreign mar
kets with consequent financial returns +;
the erection of elevators and the growth
of villages, towns and cities and every
lilllE tlSt llhL HAM ipL bhC PhcShNF'
Of national life and the opening up or
additional thousands of free home
steads so extensively advertised by the
Canadian government agent, whose ad-
dress appears elsewhere.
It was stated OH the floor OF the
Canadian Parliament recently by a
prominent representative that ten years
from now would see the bulk Of the
population Of Canada residing west OF
the Great Lakes, and II the work of
railway building during the present
year is any criterion, the prophecy
made by the Canadian statesman may
be easily fulfilled inside OF the time
stated. During the present year no less
than 1SS,O64 persons have found homes
In the Canadian West, of whom 81, 1876
were Americans who have seen the
great possibilities of this new West,
and have decided to cast in their lot
with it. Certainly, our neighbor north
of the 10th parallel is making 4 great
record, and deserves the success, that
appears to be coming its way.
