HON.
FRANK
OLIVER
AND
PEACE
RIVER
RAILWAY
OUTLET
Today
we
are
publishing
the
reply
of
Hon.
Frank
Oliver
to
the
Prince
Rupert
Board
of
Trade
in
regard
to
the
outlet
of
the
Peace
River
in
which
he
boosts
for
Monkman
Pass.
Of
course,
he
has
a
right
to
his
opinion,
although
he"
seems
to
have
been
a
recent
and
sudden
convert.
Naturally,
too,
we
have
our
own
opinion
on
the
subject.
In
the
first
place,
Mr.
Oliver
sees
this
question
through
the
eyes
of
Alberta.
He
does
not
recognize
the
claim's
of
British
Columbia
for
development.
Alberta
already
has
its
Peace
River
railways.
All
the
new
railway
he
suggests
or
most
of
it
would
be
built
through
Albertan
territory
and
to
serve
the
Province
of
Alberta.
Naturally
we
are
more
interested
in
British
Columbia
and
wish
to
see
this
Drovince
develoned.
We
want
to
see
a
line

is
that
the
reader
pores
over
the

all

until
he

the

That
is
what
will
happen
with
most
people
who
read
j
"The
Amazing
Web,"
by
Harry
Stephen
Keeler,
author
of
"Thieves'
Night,"
and
other
books.
)
It's
a
curious
yarn
dealing
largely
with
an
outstanding:
case
in
the
hands
of
a
clever
vounir

Toward
the
end
of
the
story
affairs
become
so
compli-l
cated
that
it
is
impossible
to
see
how
the
hero
can
possibly
set
theni
richt.
He
does
so.
however,
and
the
chance
is
so
sudden
and
complete
that
it
sweeps
the
reader
off
his
feet
j
and
makes
him
marvel
at
the
skill
of
the
story
teller.
Incidentally
Captain
Kidd
and
his
descendants
enter
into
the
tale
and
also
a
curious
old
Chinese
cabinet
and
a
mysterious
dead
man's
hand.
Taken
all
in
all,
"The
Amazing
Web"
is
a
story
that
can
be
well
recommended
even
to
the
jaded
taste
of
the
inveterate
novel
reader.

Mr.

At

Mr:

United
States
and
Yukon
Dis
cussed
In
House
The
construction
of
the
Pacific
Highway
north
to
Yukon
and
Alaska
was
urged
by
Capt.
Oeorge
Black,
Conservative,
Yukon,
In
the
House
of
Commons
at
Ottawa
last
week.
He
said
that
parts
of
the
highway
In
British
Columbia
and
the
Yukon
were
now
completed.
Some
day
It
would'
be
possible
to
motor
right
from
Mexico
to
Alaska.
Mr.
Black
read
newspaper
dis
patches
showing
the
attitude
of
the.
Government
of
British
Columbia
to
be
favorable
td
Jplnlng
.with
the
United
Slates
In
Investigating
the
feasibility
of
a
highway
from
the
United
States
border
to
Alaska.
Congress
was
also
voting
$25,000
towards
an
investigation
and
had
ap
pointed
a
commission
to
co-operate
with
Canada
In
this
regard.
Mr,
Black
hoped
the
Canadian
Govern
ment
would
also
be
ready
to
co-op
erate,
and
he
stressed
the
advantages
of
such
a
highway.
Hon.
Charles
Stewart,
minister
of
tne
interior,
declared
ne
had
no
quarrel
with
those
who
desired
a
highway
built
across
Canada,
but
all
the
speakers
seemed
to
be
of
the
opinion
that
the
Federal
Gov
ernmrnt
was
doing
nothing
In
the
way
of
highway
construction
and
nothing
to
encourage
the
inflow
of
tourists.
This
was
erroneous.
What
Has
Been
Done
Tne
Government
was
.
doing
a
great
deal.
It
had
built
a
highway1
through!
the-
Banff'
Hatlohal'-Park?!
and
$718,000
harj
been
spent
on
this.
At
the
same
time
$850,000
would
be
spent
on
the
road
through
Glacier
Park,
which
comprises
the
Government's
portion
of
the
uncompleted
119
miles
of
road
from
Revelstoke
to
Golden.
This
would
connect
the
last
link
front
the
Prairies
to
the
Coast.
Referring
to
the
proposed
Pacific
Highway,
Mr.
Stewart
said
Premier
Tolrrui.
uf
British
Columbia,
had
recently
discussed
the
matter
with
I
the
government.
So
far
as
the
Yu-jlcon
Territory
was
concerned
the
'Federal
Government
was
quite
prepared
to
build
in
its
entirety
its
'share
of
the
road
across
the
Yukon.
He
was
unable,
he
said,
to
speak
'of
financial
contributions
towards
I
the
construction
of
the
remainder
of
the
highway,
as
this
was
a,
matter
of
government
policy.
