BANKER TO PRISON
Harry A. Lamb of Mcintosh Gets
Three Years.

Mcintosh, July 24.-Following a
hard fight by the defense in a trial
lasting an entire week, Harry A.
Lamb, former president of the First
State bank of Mcintosh, was found
guilty by a jury here. The charge
against him was that of making false
reports to the state banking depart
ment.
The defense sought to show that
President Lamb was seeking to pro-
tect himself and depositors in a tenn
porary condition and that he had no
criminal motives in any of his ac-
tions.
After the submission of the verdict
the presiding judge sentenced Lamb
to a term of three years in the peni-
tertiary. The general belief here is
that no appeal will be taken and that
the bankers friends and relatives
will bend their efforts in attempting
to secure executive clemency for him.

question was. however, the important
one, and it was not satisfactory.
Gradually a. definite agitation for a.
Hudson bay railroad took form and
various projects were considered. The
Dominion government investigated eau
tiously and conservatively and with
results which did not cause much en-
thusiasm. But as public sentiment
continued to grow in favor of the prof.
ect, the government took notice and
finally provided the necessary financial
backing for the Mackenzie and Mann
interests. which were building the Ca
madam Northern. Surveys were made
and a definite route was adopted, with
the terminus at Fort Nelson. Con-
siderable work has been done on the
Hudson bay line. but probably on ac
count of the financial situation it will
go ahead from now on rather slowly.
But there is no doubt that the rails will
reach Fort Nelson.
The doubtful point about the Hudson
bay route does not relate to the rail
line, but to the means of getting
through Hudson bay to the sea, for a
regular cargo steamship line, There
was much controversy on this point,
and navigation through the ice packs
of the Hudson and out through James
bay is still doubted by many to be
feasible commercial project. Earl
Grey. the governor general in 1910

from their main trunks. although the
Grand Trunk Pacific terminal is at Prince

Present financial difficulties may inter
fere with these additional railway faclli-
ties becoming available as early as an

has very pointedly refused to absorb more,
Canadian railway loans and the Dominion
government has been asked to amplify

Wheat growers in the Canadian

the quantity consumed by the Canadian
northwest itself. Then would come the
question of how much would go eastward
and how much westward.
Opinion differs somewhat as to the
fix it at the 1o5th meridian of longitude,
around Calgary or the boundary be-
tween Alberta and Saskatchewan. Moose
Jaw has some advocates. as has Battle
ford Swift Current. 30 miles west of
the Manitoba line, is also a prospective
dividing point. From Alberta to the Pa
cific coast ports is approximately go
miles. and it may fairly be assumed that
the bulk of the wheat grown that far
east will be shipped out by way Of
Vancouver and go through the canal to
Liverpool.
One problem in connection with these
canal shipments is vet to be solved. 1t
relates to the effect of the hot and
humid climate on the wheat cargoes.
In some years considerable quantities of
wet and tough wheat result from eX-
posure to the early frosts and thaws. and
this is liable to sprout or rot during
period of hot, moist transit 1t is pre-

A Curious Vane. ;

A CURIOUS vane is that to be seen
on the steeple of a church at Great
Gonerby, near Grantham, in England.
This vane is in the form of a fiddle and
bow and is of unusual size.
An interesting history pertains to the
vane Many years ago, it seems, there
resided in Great Gonerby a peasant who
eked out a modest livelihood by perform
ing on an old violin. which was almost
part of his life. At last he decided to
emigrate to America. He prospered and
became quite rich man. He sent to the
clergyman at Great Gonerby sum suffi-
cent to build new church This dona-
ton carried one curious condition-that
metal replica of his old fiddle and bow
should be placed on the steeple of the
new edifce. The gift was accepted and
the vane may still be seen on the church.

In the beginning the Hudson bay
project appealed rather to the men of

the responsible public men in the Do
minion. Even when Winnipeg was a

there thought it would be better to get

rather than toward the Pacific They
figured that a railway would reach
Hudson bay in their own generation
and that a steamer route would then
be founu regardless of ice packs and
other natural obstacles,
Men in the Canadian northwest were
dreaming Of the Hudson bay route
when the prospects for a canal either
by Nicaragua or by Panama were dim.
The railway project through this al
most unknown region was fascinating,
but it appealed more to the pioneers
than to the fur traders.
AS the construction of the Canadian
lines extended through the northwest
