CANADIAN RAILWAY
BILL READ AGAIN
OTTAWA EfMBEDERS SEEM TO THINK
THEY WILL HAVE TO BUILD A
ROAD THEMSELVES.
"WE MUST GET IT BACKI"
So Said One Member, Speaking of Ter
ritory Lost to Canada by the
Boundary Deoision.
BY ASSOCIATED PRE8s.
Ottawa, Ont., Oct. ar.-The National
Transcontinental railway bill was read a
third time in the senate yesterday and
passed.
The bill provides for a new railroad
from the Atlantic to the Pacific, through
the agricultural districts of Northern Can
ada. It will parallel the Canadian Pacific
for some distance, but it will be so far
north of that line that practically new ter
ritory will be tapped.
Colonel Hughes suggested that an All
Canadian road be built fo the Yukon from
the Pacific.
Sir Wilfrid Laurier, the premier, replied
that Canada would have to do this now
that the award had gone against her in
the Alaska boundary tribunal.
Mr. Gurley, in a low tone, said that
Canada.would have to try to get back the
territory that was lost. There was a cry
of "order," and that ended the discus
sion.
The National Transcontinental railway
bill is that which gives a vast amount of
government aid, as well as a charter, to
the Grand Trunk interests to build a rail
way from Eastern Canada through to the
Pacific coast. The western terminal will
be at Port Simpson, 6oo miles north of
Victoria. Port Simpson is just south of
the international boundary line. as deter
mined this week by the Alaska boundary
commission.
Opposite the harbor of Port Simpson,
across an arm of the sea, is United States
te'ritory. Thus, from a military point of
view, the United States will command
the harbor entrance even more completely
thpn the new British defenses and fortifi
cations at Esquimalt-said to be the
strongest in the empire excepting only
Gibraltar-command the Straits of San
Juan de Fuca, which are the entrance to
Puget sound.
The new transcontinental road will
open up a section of country said to be
exceptionally rich. The particularly valu
able section to be tapped and opened is
that stretch of country about 600oo miles
wide that lies between the Rocky moun
tains and the coast range. It possesses
timber, mines and grazing country, all of
great possibilities. On account of the low
elevation of the mountain ranges at that
altitude, the warm breezes, blowing over
the Japan current from the Pacific, have
an almost uninterrupted sweep. This pro
duces and equable climate and provides
winter temperatures the equal of regions
for to the south. In the Northwest terrl
tories, east of the Rocky mountains, the
northern country is said to be quite as
favorable to agricultural and stock raising
pursuits as that southern portion of the
territory now reached by the Canadian
Pacific.
A fact of general Interest, about the
new line is the apparently well founded
belief that James J. Hill is largely in
terested in the project. Announcement
was made only the other day that he haIl
made a combination with the Grand Trunk
whereby there would be an exchange of
business between that road and his merger
roads at Chicago, and that the Grand
Trunk would, through this exchange and
Hill's permission, operate an American
Australian line of steamships, sailing from
Tacoma.

My husband hlad the best ,hvbsiian for me and I used his medicine for nearly four months, but I gradtually

A friend who was callinn on me brought me a bottle of Wine of Cardul and was so loud in its praise that I told
her that I would take it to pleSe Ier.
I was surprised and pleased that before I had used the bottle I really felt s U . ,

on the floor of congress. The lald not

which would be valuable if ir ig;ited, Mr.

I said I preferred smlokers when I sent
for the gang. W\hen they went to work
I told thnl they were to sinke as niunh
as they Ileased. And they hit tihe pipe
right along to their heart,' content. I .L.
sulre you. A lneighbor cnalle to look at the job
aLll threw up his hands when he saw m.y
gaing. I own it the drain were four lusty
fellows; each and every one was loading
and lihtingl hi howl.
"'\Waste of time that; takes a Ioan at
leaist one minute to fill, light and start a
pipe. Tlhose fellows could lnot work for
me. Simlply wasting too much time smlok
ing.'
"So he said, but so did I just the samiie
fail to agrlee with him when I saw the
chaps buckle down to lusiness ; worked and
puffed, Iuffed aind worked. It was the
saiie with the tile men. 'I hey'd suddenly
lift up with a jerk as though they had for
gottenii sllethingi. (Out Ciam the pipes and
hags---scratch, puff and, presto! down went
the tiles all shipshape and qluickly. It was
the same with the rest of tihe men. They
worked aiil smoked, smoked and worked;
if they lost time fooling with tile pipe they
made it more than up when the pipes
started business. Mind, I do not find any
fault with the non-smoker--on the con
trary, I admire the manal who does not use
the weed. But when it comes down to
real old hard work I will take the smoker
every time when I want my job done
quickly."
"And I presume you lighted a perfecto
and looked the thing over with a degree
of satisfaction that was sublime ?"
"Hardly; I never smoke myself, I only
chew."-New York Times.

2.--Jackson H. Ralston of Washington,
the umpire of the Italian commission at
('aracas, Venezuela, has decided against
Venezuela in the case of the government's
claim for double playment of local taxes,

ment of taxes on goods imported at Ciu
dad, liolivar, under the recent revolu
tionary government at that port.
When the decision of Mr. Ralston is

considering the prosecution at Ciudad, Bol.
ivar, of foreign merchants who refuse to
,pay the Castro government duties which
they have previously paid to the late revo.
lutionary government.
