Pacific A STUPENDOUS KINO Laurier in a speech of two hours and a half duration presented to House in detail the agreement made by the Government with the Grand Trunk Pacific for another railway way line across the Government will build the line under a commission from to Winnipeg and Grand Trunk will construct the line from Winnipeg to the Pacific coast receiving a guaran tee on its bonds to the amount of per mile over the prairie sec tion and per mile for the mountainous section The Grand Trunk is to operate the line from to Winnipeg for years and after the first seven years will pay tfce Government 3 per cent on the cost of the road The line is to be available for all companies at rates to be fixed by Government The road is to be completed in five years After the seventh year of operation and up to the tenth any deficit that may accrue in the operation road will be kited to the cost and regarded as principal upon which the company will pay per cent interest for the remaining years of the lease The Government will also pay the interest for seven years on the cost of the construction of mountain section up to per mile The Government will deposit to secure its carrying out the contract The Premier in the most concise language outlined the project upon which tbe Government has been work ing and for which the country has been waiting so many days He reviewed ambitions and mistakes of Canadian railroad building in the past He pointed to the present needs and the present dangers of our commerce between the interior and the seaboard He peered into the future showed what Canada is to be and invited Canada to make ready for her future Time after time the House respond ed to the burning words of the ora tor Time after time the Chamber rang with deafening applause Even on the Opposition side of the House members could not refrain from tes tifying their approval of the senti ments uttered At the conclusion of his speech there was a tumult of en thusiasm in the House and none join ed more heartily in the applause than the exMinister of Hon A G Blair The agreement diners from the one made with the in that it gives away no great stretches of public lands of the country arid grants no huge subsidies and as observed by tbe Premier it provides for an air line from ocean to ocean from a Canadian port on the Atlantic to a Canadian port on the Pacific through new territory at a minimum cost and reserves to people a voice as to what passenger and freight tools shall be Practically speaking the people built the giving that company in cash and in lands and yet the people have noth ing to say in the ownership or man agement but in regard to the pro posed Grand Trunk Pacific while it will involve perhaps forty or fifty millions for interest guaranteed this spread over a period of year and in no year is the sum guaranteed by the Government likely to as Sir Wilfrid staled in Parliament the Dominion surplus for the past fis cal year and In the end the Hallway Company is to recoup the Canadian treasury for its outlay This Ik the way the scheme has been presented before- the House Mr Robert a prominent number of a Company who are for the Dominion the Thomson and Lord steamship lines speaking of the Governments Grand Pacific policy gives it his entire indorsa tion He says Why the act should be opposed I am at a loss to understand see ing that the opening up of such new territories and the invest ment of so much capital must be for the benefit of tire country It Is possible that disappoint ment may arise in the working building or earning power of the parts of the road but that Is to bo expected In such a gigantic en- terpriac and Should not for a mo ment be allowed to discourage Its projection Nothing could have been more discouraging iban the prospects of the Canadian Pacific Railway at its inception many wellinformed railway peopfe say ing that It would never pay for the grease used on the axles of its cars and yet that railway now stands almost at the head of the earning railways of the world From ail reports tbe Trunk projected railway runs through a more easily built and pos sibly richer section of country and there Is little reason to doubt that it will prove as good a paying railway as Canadian Pacific is and do much in the de velopment of Canada Had the Government ignored the claims which the Grand Trunk has the country refused la to thecn or unduly delayed the balding or this great transcontin ental railway future generations would them as unworthy of their positions as Canada and rightly so As the proposition is discussed in Parliament we shall be able to get further insight as to details but pres ent appearances indicate that an ex cellent bargain has been made Oar Society POINTS Miss was the gutst of Mrs Ed
