government for permission to
build its transcontinental line
from Cape St. Charles, on the At-
lantie Coast, to the head of Dean
Channel, on the Pacific. The an-
nouncement of the intention to
build this railway has been kept
very quiet by the British capita!-
ists who are backing the scheme
in order that there might be no
trouble in securing rights of way
and necessary
prices become inflated.

Mr. Jacobsen of Bella Coola is
