 The receipts of grain at various big centers throw light upon the astounding prosperity of the trans continental railway. Sir Thomas re- ported that premiums on stock is- sues to the amount of S1O5, 100000 have been invested in the general improvement of the property with out capital liability.
 Thirty years ago the pessimists laughed at the folly of building a railway that they said would not pay for it's axle grease;" today its president calmly states that $33O,- 000,000 have been invested in the past ten years on improvements and additions and then caps his climax by picturing the investors paying a total of premiums of S105, 100000, ranging from 9 to 75 per cent, into the company's treasury over and above the face value of the new stock
