HUDSON
BAY

HUGE
Local
Resident
Returns
To
City
-After
Spending
Summer
on
New
Railway
Robert
McCarthy,
steam
shovel
engineer
for
the
Canadian
National
Railways,
has
returned
to
the
city
after
spending
the
summer
on
the
Hudson
Bay
Railway.
He
was
stationed
about
350
miles
north
of
The
Pas,
or,
roughly,
half
way
down
to
Fort
ChurchllL
.
If
the
Hudson
Bay
Railway
never
carries
a
pound
of
wheat
commercially,
Mr.
McCarthy
believes
that
the
expenditure
of
much
money
there
is
well
Justified
by
the
mineral
possibilities.
One
can
gain
some
idea
of
these
when
it
is
pointed
out
that
twenty-five
million
dollars
Is
being
spent
In
making
the
Flln
Flon
mine
a
producer
and
that
the
Sherritt-Gordon
mine
is
declared
to
be
even
a
greater
mine
than
Flln
Flon.
Two
large
marble
quarries
on
that
railway
also
make
a
unique
addition
to
Canada's
mineral
store.
Mr.
McCarthy
said
that
to
see
real
muskeg
Prince
Rupert
people
should
see
that
along
the
Hudson
Bay
Railway.
"Why.
Prince
Rupert
oeople
don't
know
what
muskeg
Is,"
he
says.
"The
country
up
there
is
full
of
it."
Among
former
Prince
Rupert
people
In
the
Hudson
Bay
Railway
district
Is
Dave
Roberts,
formerly
Canadian
National
Railway
locomotive
engineer
here.
Mr.
Roberts
Is
at
the
throttle
of
construction
trains
there,
Mr.
McCarthy
reports.
