Chamber Commerce
Endorses New Site
At a meeting of the members of the
Chamber of Commerce Wednesday
night the matter of the proposed
change In site for the contemplated
Fffferal building In Canon City waa
presented for consideration, and the
following resolution was unrnlmously
adopted:
Wher#aa, The Postoffice Depart
ment has purchased a site for a Fed
eral building in Canon City, Colorado
on the corner of Fourth and Macon
avenue, and.
Wbereaa. The people of this city
have not ssked for an appropriation
for the construction of a building on
this site for the reason that it does
not meet with the approval of a large
number of people and the site was
selected after a very bitter fight on the
part of our citizens, and.
Whereas. At the time of the selec
tion of this site the property located
on the southwest corner of Flftn snd
Main streets was under favorable con
sideration. but the prices asked for
this business property was far in ex
cess of the amount allowed for the!
purchase price, and was st that ttm«V|
held for 131.000 and.
Whereas. The citizens of —is com- !
reunify are desirous of securing sI
Federal postoffice building and are
willing to make many sacrifices to
that end and options are now held on
these lota, each 44 feet by 120 feet, or
120x132 fete, located on the said south
west corner of Fifth snd Main streets,
for the sum of snd tue people
nf this community pledge the Bum of
f 10.000 of this amount for the pur
chase of this site. and.
WbatffMA, This new ’ocatlon meet j
with the hearty approval of all the *
people, and.
Whereas. The present site as now
owned by the government can be trad
ed in on one of the options now held (
at a valuation of $2,500, and this sum ,
Is considered by conservative and re- |
liable citizens as a fair valuation at j
the present time for this property.!
and.
Whereas. We believe ihc disposi
tion shown by the people of this com- 1
munity in offering to the'
above sum for the purchase of a new j
and more desirable site is sufficient j
grounds to Justify s request for this j
change in locations, therefore, be it
Ms<olv4>d. By the Chamber of Com- j
melee, the business oody ol all the!
!le of Canon City. Colorado, that {
•quest the Hon. Guy U. Hardy,
ressman from the Third iriatrlcL
resent this matter to the Post- ]
* Department and urge upon them
Imposition of me presen- site, to i
aded in upon the. option now held
r direct sale, "and the purchase of j
jew location, and. be It further !
solved. That we also request an .
Dpriatlcn by the Congress for the
ion of a Federal building on the j
site at an early date,
opted this 3rd day of September.

There are two big things in Canada
beiides the country Itself. These are
the Hudson Bay Company and the <3.
P. R. The Initials stand for the Cana*
dian Pacific Railway, but everybody
calls it the C. P. R. I have read of
t Canadian Pacific in the financial maga
zine., and after an extended tour
over this wonderful system can well
understand why it is considered an
excellent investment.
C. P. R. i« one of the great railroad
systems of the world, and via its trains
and boats one can go almost around
the world. The system has 18.000
miles of railroad and seventy-six steam
ships.
The C. P. R. has not only given Can
ada its greatest railroad, but it has
built a chain of magnificent hotels
along that line that attract many peo
ple every season. We have been in
the C. P. R. hotels at Winnipeg, Vic
toria. Calgary, Lake Louise and Banff.
They are as flue as you will find any
where. And they are all full this year.
At Banff we were told that 15,000
people this season bad been turned
away from the C. P. R. hotel.
Every place we have been the hotels
have been crowded.
The section of the Canadian Pacific
Railway between Vancouver and Cal
gary la particularly interesting, not
only because it passes through the
most spectacular scenery on the North
American continent, but also of lta his
toric interest in the history of the Do
minion of Canada. British Columbia
agreed to enter Into that Dominion
only on condition that a railway line
should be built eastward from the
coast, linking her with the Atlantic
and interior provinces, and the Cana
dian Pacific Railway was the result.
This line was constructed in the face
of enormous natural obstacles, but
that tact has rendered accessible to
the traveler scenery of unique mag
nificence which he now can see from
his comfortable C. P. R. car. Leaving
Vancouver, the train follows the
south shore of Burrard Inlet, with a
vista of snow-tipped mountains, and
sailing craft and steamers and rafts
of sawn timber. Shortly after passing
Port Moody, the original terminus of
the railway, the line leaves salt water,
and traverses a rich alluvial country
which has been reclaimed for the mar
ket gardeners and farmers who help
to feed the city. From Hammond the
[ railway follows the Fraser RlvCr for
i 130 miles. Mount Baker in the State of
! Washington, forming a conspicuous
! landmark ou the right
! Mission is the Junction for trains
from Seattle. At Agassiz is a Govern
ment Experimental Farm for fruit and
grain, and passengers get off here for
Harrison Hot Springs, a popular sum
mer resort.
At Petain the Kettle Valley Railway
to the Okanagan and the Kootenays
branches off pax* the silver encrusted
peaks of Hope Mountains Yale, at
head of navigation on the Fraser,
was formerly th {outfitting point for
miners bound for the famous Cariboo
i Mines further north. Here one enters
the romantic Fraser Canyon, where
the great river has forced its way
through tremendous cliffs of black
rocks. Climbing along edges cut and
i blasted out of the side of the precipice,
I the traveler* look on the foaming cata
| rads 200 feet below, and the deep
! pools where in August the salmon rest
on their strenuous passage to the
| spawning beds Indians may be seen
on projecting rocks down at the wa
[ ter's edge spearing salmon—at other
, places Chinamen at the gravel bars
I waiting for gold.
| At Lytton the train leaves the Fraser
‘and enters the wild gorge of the
i Thomdson River with brilliantly col
| ored cliffs, through crevices in which
[ are seen occasionally snowy peaks.
! Two miles beyond Basque comes the
I Black Canyon, out of which it emerges
into Ashcroft, the modern point of de
| parture for Cariboo and Northern Brit

On the C. P. R.
By Guy U. Hardy.
C. P. R. has another branch line, con
necting with steamers which ply
through the Arrow Lakes to the Koot
enays—a trip of exceptional interest
and beauty.
• ns
We have met a number of fine peo
ple up here —government officials and
railroad people. One of the cleverest
is F. E. Trautman. He belongs to the
C. P. R. organization, but carries no
official title. He is very quiet and un
assuming, takes a back seat usually,
never crowds or pushes into automo
biles or dining rooms, nas never made
a speech, nor has he been mentioned
in a public gathering, but I have ob
served that when anything goes wrong
or needs fixing in connection with
railway matters Mr. Trautman soon
has it fixed. Mr. Trautman has been ;
attending to his own business so <
closely that many of our party have
not met him, but a few of us who
know him well call him the Col. House
of the C. P. R.
