dred years after Its discovery by Heri

relations. Canada Is now pre

rich territory nbout Hudson Bay. to
build a railroad to Its shores and to
open the "Me literrnnean of Canada"
to commerce.

bring about n dispute ns to sovereign
ty over tho bay between this country
nnd the Dominion. The country about
he bny is capable of vast develop
ment and, with the completion of the
railway, an important gra'n outlet will
also be nt stalce. Tho southern part

compnres very fnvornbly with that of
the same latitude In other parts of
the globe.
