      In the Significance of the "Frontier in American History," I took for my text the following announcement of the Superintendent of the Census of 1890:

      Up to and including 1880 the country had a frontier of settlement but at present the unsettled area has been so broken into by isolated bodies of settlement that there can hardly be said to be a frontier line. In the discussion of its extent, the westward movement, etc., it cannot therefore any longer have a place in the census reports.
