T|ROAD OF THREE NATIONS

THE OMINECA MINER, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1911.

Pacific Highway Will Soon Be An Ac-
complished Fact—Next Trophy Will
Be for Trip To Mexico City

Things grow rapidly in the
West. One cannot take 4 flying
trip back East without finding,
on his return, that the nephew
he left asa round eyed baby is
now inknickerbockers and asking
questions; that the nursery slips
he planted in front of the door
just before his departure are now
interfering with the telegraph
wires and the paving,

One of the best examples of
phenomenal growth on the Coast
is the Pacific Highway. Little
more than a year ago this project
was conceived ag a road to con-
nect Oregon, Washington and
‘California, It was taken up with
enthusiasm by the general public;
and newspapers in every com-
munity ran column after column
about it. Before long its planners
had sueceeded in marking High-
way through Washington. Now
it has gone through Oregon and
is pausing for a moment on the
California line,

At the completion of work iu
the Evergreen Siate, the Pacific
Highway Association nicknamed
their road the ‘‘Road of Three
Nations.”” They decided to in-
vade Mexico and British Colum-
bia,

British Columbia was more
than willing. The provincial
government appropriated .large
sums for construction; and an-
nounced its intention of making
Pacific Highway passable clear
through to the Alaskan border,
The recent success of P. E. Sands
in marking the trail from Ash-
croft to Hazelton assures the
early completion of this work,
Now that the Hazelton trophy is
in the hands of its winner,
motorists’ eyes are turned toward

_|a@ similar medal, to go to the first

car which reaches Mexico City
from San Diego. Itis not Hkely
thet the golden wheel will rest
long unclaimed.

About a month ago, theofficers
of the Association began to dis-
cuss Mexico with more interest.
Towns were marked on maps;
possible routes were laid out in
peneil; tours were scheduled for
next summer. Such runs will be
made under more favorable con-
ditions than prevailed last sum-
mer, since a strong man is now
in power in theturbulent republic.

Today, with interest stronger
than ever; with the attention of
the whole nation centered on
Pacific Highway as one of a great
chain of national roads, its ori-
ginators are contemplating no
less plan than -the extension of
Pacific Highway to the Straits of
Magellan. Aroute has not yet
been definitely selected.

Wife Murderer To Hang

(Special tu The Miner)

Vancouver, Oct, 27:-—The Can-
adian Northern railway has
awarded to Waddell & Harrington
a contract to design and superin-
tend the construction of ten steel
bridges on the route between
Cisco and Kamloops. Two of
the bridges will cross the Fraser,
seven will be constrneted across
the main Thompson river, and
one over the North Thompson.
The total cost will exceed $1,250-
g00,

Extension of E. &N.
(Speelal to The Miner)
Victoria. Oct. 27:—Sol Cameron

of Prince Rupert has been given
the right-of-way contract for the
proposed forty-mile northern ex-
tension of the Esquimalt and
Nanaimo branch of the C. P. R.
The new section will extend the
‘road to Courtney, near Comox.
The C, P. R. has also let a con-
tract for a quarter million dollar
addition to the Empress hotel,

the Empress, being the success-

Notes of General Interest

The provincial government has
offered a reward of $1,500 for
the capture of Moses Paul, an
Indian who escaped from Clinton
jail while awaiting trial for the
murder of William White, a
halfbreed.

Several mining companies are
included in the list of thirty cor-
porations threatened with remov-
al from the register of stock
companies if they fail to comply
with the law of registration be-
fore December 12.

Infection from ‘tainted’? mon-
ey is assigned as the cause of the
death at Waltham, Mass, of
George C. Farnham, a wealthy
banker, Some time ago Mr.
Farnham, while engaged in
couuting greenbacks, scratched
his ear with his finger nail,
sleight wound was poisoned with
germs from the bills and develop-
ed into on abscess, and then into
a general poisoning of his system.

The immense power plant at
Stave river falls, which will sup-|o
ply electrical energy to Vancou-
ver, is practically completed, and
will bein operation about Decem-
ber Ist. The plant consists of
four units, each of 18,000 horse-
power. In the construction of
the dam itis claimed arecord was
made, Fifteen thousand cubic
yards of concrete were placed in
three months.

Unele Sam has a billion dollars
in gold in his coffers. and he will
coin no more of the precious
metal for twenty years, This is
the reason why some of the mints
are closed and the output of
others restricted. The new pol-
icy of issuing certificates against
bullion has already saved the
government a large sum; more-
over the people prefer paper
money to coin. As bullion is
used for export, the mints are
now running off only silver coins |
and pennies. The United States
-| buys gold at the rate of $120,000-
000 a year.

What is declared to be the
richest gold find since the days
of scattered pockets in California,
was made by two men who re-
cently returned from a voyage to
northern Labrador and Baffin
Land. The men, R, 5. Elmsley,
of Ottawa, and Richard White of
St. Johns, chartered a steamer
three months ago, ostensibly for
a trading voyage. They returned
with five tons of mineral which
they declared at the customs
The mineral was enume-
rated as gold quartz, placer gold,
iron, mica, plumbago, porphyry,
dolomite, rhyolite, labradorite
and schist. One member of the
steamer’s crew exhibited a three-
ounce nugget of almost. virgin

gold, The men refuse.to discuss
their, discoveries,
