The Peace Rail Outlet:
Ie there i is one big undertaking

than any other it is that of the
Pacific Great Eastern Railway.
Some time ago the Prince Rupert
Board of Trade issued a pamphlet }
on the Peace River country and
the great advantages of serving

that new empire by a railway
to connect with the G. T.P. west

Rupert as the terminus. That}
pamphlet made a splendid im-

gained should not be lost by a
lack of interest on the part of
interior people. |

At the present time the pro-
vincial government is endeavor: | -
ing to unload the P.G.E. railway
and the Premier has been nego-
tiating with Alberta with the
idea of combining the P.G.E.
and the B.D. & B.C, Railway and

unloading both on someone who
will give the Peace River a rail
outlet: from the B.D. & B.C.
through the Peace and down to
Prince George, and thence over
the P.G.E. to Vancouver. |

That-may be alright.for a goy-
ernment attempting to get out of
a bad hole, butis not good enough
for the Peace River country or
for the country along the ‘Grand
Trunk: Pacific west of Prince
Georgé to’ Prince Rupert. The
Premier’s plan would cut this
whole country out of the Peace
River business..

On the other hand, the minister
of lands stated at Prince Rupert
last week, that when the Peace
River was given an outlet to the
Pacific Ocean the railway, ‘would
run’ ‘into Prince Rupert over ‘the
Grand Triink ‘Pacific line, The
