MEANS A NEW

A Charter to Atlin Will Be
 Asked For

During the session of the Canadian legislature of 'g9-i90. a charter wsls grant od Co !. A. Mara. cx-M. F.. F. $. Barnard' cx-M r.. and Capt. John Irving. cN-M.
 L.. A.. to construct and operate lne
 railway from some suitable point on Kit imaat inlet. in the Coast district. to Hal zclton. on tho Skecna river. Application is this session to bc made Tor an eNten- sion of this charter from tlazeiton. by the most reasonable and feasible route Co point at or near the northern boun' diary line of the Province of B. C. at or near Tcslin lake. or Atlin lake, or both and also from satd Ilu2eltOn. by the most reasonable and feasible route to point at or near the eastern boundary line of the Province. via the Skecna, Babine. priftwood. Omcneca and Finley rivers to the Peace river pass. thence easterly to a point at or near the eastern boundary of the Province: with authority to main tain and operate branch lines from any point of the proposed route. All other powers and privileges usually asked for in such applications arc requested Of the government.
 It is supposed that the request for amendment Co the original charter and the present one is for the purpose of working in conjunction with parties In the east. who have charters extending rom the Hudson Bay to the eastern of this province.
 If the suppositlon is correck we are jus lincd in stating that the combination of the several charters will form one Of the most valuable railroad franchises on inc American continent. As far as this section of the line Is concerned. it Is to hc hoped that the government in granting ihe charter. will bind the company to construction within a reason able time. in ordec that we may have some assurance the new charter to be applied for. Is not for speculative pur- poses only.-Atliu Claim.
