NEW ROUTES.
British C,oium ,ian.

We have several times called atten-
sion 70 the Importance to this province
OF the completion of the Northern Pa
cine Railway to Seattle. That event Ia
expected to take place within about two
months from the present time, date 50
near tnat merchants may fairly be con-
siderinR whether II may not be worth
while to ascertain by which route their
fail goods should come. We have now
a steamship from San Francisco TO this
city direct; bat her trips have lately
been SO irregular that merchants oftener
missed than caught her. But the direct
steamer has demonstrated that We have
been paying considerable toll on all
goods passing through Victoria, and
tnat 1t Is OF very great importance for
rs TO secure direct steam communica-
ton. We have pointed ont that when
the Northern Pacific has been COM
piefed to Seattle, the shortest and quick.
est route for freight and passengers
coming to this provinces will be over that
line, and that our merchants ought to
endeavor as soon as possible to secure
the establishment of steamboat liae
between Seattle and New Westminster.
From an advertisement In another col
umn i. will he seen that the Oregon
Railway aid Navigation Company pro-
pose to establish new route from Port
land, via Tacoma, to this city. The
steamer Gipsy will, for the present, go
ON that route. From Seattle We have
the steamer Evangei; but until the CON-
pletion of the railroad no through
freight can come from Seattle. The
establishment of the Tacoma New West
minister route shows that the people
across the boundary are becoming alive
to the importance of cultivating closer
commercial relations with Us. British
Columbia is bound to grow mp with the
Sound, and the rapidity of our growth
will to some extent depend upon the
facilities we have for traffic. Let us en-
courage the establishment of new lines
to different points, but let us not forget
that our principal concern Just now is
with Seattle and the Northern Pacific.
1t has already been announced that
freight rates from the east to Seattle
will be the same ~ to Portland. From
Seattle to New Westminster should not
cost more than 81 or $3.50 per ton.
Over this route there should be a saving
on eastern freight of about Sc per ton
and at least one week la time. 1t is
expected that a favorable arrangement
will be made for the shipment of freight
from the Pacific terminus Of the North
ern Pacific Railway to Victoria, Are
our merchants doing anything to secure
favorable terms for this city and the
mainland? This matter should be taken
up by the Board of Trade. Correspon-
dence should be opened at once with
the authorities of the N. p. K. r.. and
it should be ascertained what I'll ey pro-
pose doing for Us. Merchants will soon
be ordering their fall and wiuter goods,
and with the order they should indi-
cate by what route the goods are to be
sent.
