C.P. RIVAL THREATENS HILL
Rich Oriental Trade Is Not For
One Man.
OPPOSITION TO GREAT NORTHERN
COMBINATIONS ARE BEING MADE
TO ENTER INTO TRADE
WITH JAPAN.
OPPOSITION TO GREAT NORTHERN

The belief that the Canadian Pacific
is to be the strongest rival of the Hill
lines within a few months is growing
strong in the east. This belief has
grown almost to the responsibility of
established fact within the last two
weeks, is the report that comes from
st. Paul
A Canadian Pacific official Mr..
Whyte, mas been quoted here recently
as saying that the Canadian Pacific
has strengthened its position on the
water front at Seattle by the purchase
of terminal grounds second only to the
Great Northern holdings, and has
other lands under option. This fol-
lows, by couple of weeks, the denial
of Sir Thomas Shaughnessy that the
company has bought anything west OF
Spokane.
1t is assumed here that the presi-
dents statement was a bubble. based
upon the fact that the Canadian Pa
clf1c, per Sc has not taken title to any
of the Shorthand property. At the
same time, the rumors to the effect
that the Canadian Pacific is going into
Seattle will not down. The rumors, of
course, are concerned with a direct
line from the east into the city, and
n oft
sibilities with, regard to an entrance
over its own tracks from the north
Facts Speak for Themselves.
Facts with regard to the Spokane
& International are the strongest basis
for the report, and are not deniable.
This road is to be ready for use,
equipped and in commission by Aug
1, 1906, at the latest. The original
date was July 1. The Corbin forces
are hard at work, rushing things as
hard as they can be rushed. Of course
railway building in winter, over the
line, is not as easy as it looks. The
Canadian Pacific had to finish the line
from it's main line to Yahk, on the
border, before the building supplies
could get down to the new line over
Canadian Pacific railroad tracks. This,
to some extent, delayed the beginning
of the American line.
The strongest fact, however, and the
most emphasized in current gossip is
that the Spokane & International, Ca
madam Pacific and 500 line, in con-
junction, are now claimed to be the
cheapest route to operate that will
run between Spokane and the twin
cities. If this claim, openly made by
the Canadian Pacific people here, and
by the underwriters of the Spokane
& International bonds. Day & Heaton
is capable of proof, the results to Spo-
kane and, ultimately, to points west
are impossible to judge in advance

Hill Forgets c. p. r.


Mr. Hill apepars to have forgotten
the Canadian Pacific, in the sheer de-
light of making Great Northern stock
do fancy stunts in the Wall Street
markets. He still claims that if the
railroads get down to Great Northern
rates they will all go broke long be-
fore they do any harm to him. That
is pretty true saying as far as the
American lines are concerned, but it
ed States more than a generation to
forget the lesson the Canadian Pa
citic railroad gave the transcontinental
bureau when it dropped a transport
line into the Golden Gate and smashed
the transcontinental pool into the flat
test kind of a fizzle. There are trans
portation men on the Union Pacific
that don't sleep easy nights to this day
when they figure on what the Cana
dian Pacific did to the rate schedule
at that time without, apparently, any
disagreeable results to itself.
Rates Now Equitable.
Of course, things have changed since
then. The Canadian Pacific, in those
days, used to charge the unlucky in
habitants of Regina nearly twice as
much for the transportation of their
freight from Montreal as it charged
the inhabitants of ictoria.
the figure is guess more or less,
and the schedules are forgotten by
everybody except the people of Re
gina, but the principle was there. Now
adays, the railroad commission of Can
ada is made of railroad men, mostly
titled and all with an ak ready to
chop when need be. So the Canadian
Pacific railroad is as good as the
American lines and behaves itself.
There are no fancy tariffs in the
northwest. The members of the
house looked after that when they
stacked up solidly behind the govern
