This north country, which has almost

rich in copper, and has vast mountains
of iron ore, with thousands Of square
miles of wilderness yet unexplored.
Lately the government experts have
come to the conclusion that men will be
digging diamonds shortly along the
height of land, and blasting them out
when cutting and filling for the new ma

Finally the general elections came on,
and the sane, sober Canadians pranced

Winnipeg, Man., May 4.-When
Charles M. Hays had been eight
years in Canada and had lifted
the Grand Trunk railway from liabil-
lty to an asset, he sprung a surprise on
the people of the Dominion in the shape
of proposition to build another trans
continental line from ocean to ocean.
1t looked like dream-a beautiful,
impossible dream. In the nature of
things it became necessary at the very
eventually the substantial aid, of the
Dominion governments. This, of neces-
sity, threw the great enterprise into the
political pot, where it boiled for more
than two years.
To oppose the government the oppo
sition in parliament had to oppose the
whole project. AS is usual with men
having the hard side of case, they
and, indirectly -often directly-ma-
ligned the land in which they lived.
They declared the forests of New On
tario a vast unknown wilderness of mus
key. They denied the necessity of the
new line despite the statement OF the
est-known railway man in Canada
Sir William Van Horne-who, speak
ing of the Grand Trunk Pacific and the
Canadian northwest, said: FThere is

Perhaps the greatest reason for the

fact that work on the new Grand Trunk

Before many months it will be as IA
nous for quite another cause.
Natural gas is going. to make Medi-

ural gas is excellent fuel with which to
operate manufacturing plants, and men
with capital who are looking for town
which is centrally located in western
Canada, with splendid railroad facili-
ties, and who wish to set up packing

brick or tile works, tannery, ore smelter,
glass works or furniture factory, are
finding cheap fuel and other things for
ownership town of Medicine Hat. The
natural gas is being furnished to them
by the city at the rate of 5 cents for
1000 feet.

Hat News, said to your correspondent

Mighty Voice of the West.
All the while the west was swelling
like a balloon, not with hot ali, but
with homesteaders. American farmers
were crossing the line at the rate OF
10000 per annum, and these with the
natives of the northwest lifted up their
voices and called to the government to
build the line.
In time the cry of the west echoed in
the wilderness of New Ontario and. was
heard as far east as Montreal.
The opposition became confused. One
man would declare the whole scheme a
wanton waste of public money; an
other would say, cit s shame to give
so valuable franchise to the Grand
Trunk and urge the government to
build, own, and operate the entire line.
