ing on the line in expectation of having
the trains running by next fall. At all
events, work will be pushed in every de.
partment, and nothing that money, ex.
perience and earnestness can accomplish
will be left undone. They have a large
number OF Ottawa men employed ON the
right of way and they are making the
timber disappear as il by magic. One
thing that especially delights all concern.
Ell is the fact that ut no place on the line
does the grade exceed per cent, while
on the main line 2 per cent grade is CON-
mon and per cent not unusual.
There are number of coal mines along
theh line, one of which is even now being
actively developed. 1t is only five miles
from the line, and a spur Of track is now
being built out to it. As soon a. con.
strhction is finished, shipments will be
made Trains will be run over the line as
soon as the foot of Kootenay lake is
reached. The work of construction from
there to Nelson will, however, go on with.
out any interruption. The wagon road
from Fort Mcleod to Meyer lake has been
completed.
