A Great Canadian Road-
Of thousands who are familiar with
whads .2 the letters C. P. ll.. few have a correct
5 idea of what these represent. 01' IIOW far- ' reaching their sway. Without inqurlng
who first suggested a railway from ocean to ocean on Canadian- soil it is fair to assume that uniting the proyinces 31 years ago made such a line of almost vital necessity. After much agitation government began the work,but in 1880 transferred it to a company who were to receive 25 m llions in money and 25 million acres of land. In 1881 uork was begun in good earnest, the rails advancing tbr.e miles each working day, at times even doubling that rats; on the mornng of November 7th, 1885, the forces from east and west mel in what is called Eagle Pass, 2555 miles west of Montreal, 351 miles east of Vancouver, when the last rail was placed and lhelast spike driven home, there being still five years to run of the time for complet nhg the contract.
The inquiry is sometimes made, what
is the east terminus of the Canadian Pacific? In one sense Halifax is the eastern terminus, in another sence' St. John. From Halifax lo St. John, a distauca of 275 miles. C. P. R. 'trains use the Inlercoloninls track bus. the C. P. li. road begins at St John. Taking Halifax as eastern terminus. the distance to Vnn~ couver is $662 mles; from Summer- side about 3530 probably ` 750 miles more than if vhe line were per- fectly straight. For convenience the road is divided into tour great sec- tions as follows: The Atlantic division from Halifax to Montreal 756 miles ;1he caste rn division from Montreal to Fort William 998 miles; the western division faom Fort William to Donald 1450 miles; the Pacific division from Donald to Vancouver 458 miles. For train- running the road is divided into much smaller sections at what are called di- visional pomts ;judging by shorter roads one might think that a train start- ing from Halifax ‘orlfancouver would keep right on to the opposite terminus the same hands» the same engine-not so however. Railway men require sleep, food and rest, 'and at the division. al points (perhaps 16 of them) all the train hands except the mail clerk and express agent go off for some 14 or 16 hours, at the end of' which time they board a train going back; and so cou- tinue backward and forward day after day on what they call their °'run.’, These runs are not always exact as to length, but the average is about 250

require rest, at least experience teaches thata locomotive lo give its best service must not be kept in harness too long, but require occasionally to cool and be polished-groomed, so to speak. The C. P. R. is of such length that locomo- tives and men are as apt to finish their day at early morn as' at sunset, or to begin when Light is lowering the cur~ tains as when morning is young. It is well known that for' every 15 degrees of longitude one travels westward the time changes an hour, the points at which the change takes place being Ottawa. Fort William. Regina and Donald; in this way P. E. Island time is four hours loo fast for Vancouver. -
West-bound trains are always "No
1,” those coming east “ No. 2.”L:-ist I March and April during the Klondike exciunent, sime days N0. 1 had to by sent in 'dye sections, in other words live daily paessnger trains were needed for the rush after gold. Long-distance pas- scngers usually h we dummage and the C. P. R. is wise in giving plenty of room. in which respect I never travelled an road that behaves so munilicently. These trans-continental trains are, for the time being, homes where people retire to luxurious beds and wake a big distance farther on ;cooks too are at their special function und savory odors float back on the air. Through trains take at least seven days in crossing , the continent including stops. eight to len hours. Were it possible to view too whole line at a glance there would be seen seven trains constantly speeding westward and as many bound for the east; at morning the well-vsrnished coaches reflecting the sun, at night their lamps like clear meteors scudding over the plain. At times the number moving each way is much in excess of the cardinal seven. ‘The number of stations éfrom Halifax to Vancouver exceeds 430 oi which about three~sevenths are flag stations. Besides the main track the company owns four or five dozen branches and subsidiary lines ;tbe whole added together making when the Crowls Nest is tinishol at least 8000 miles. Oflthe _branches. that between Montreal and Toronto(338 miles)is chief in importance and owing to increased trade an additional trick isto be laid very soon.
At the close of last your the C. P. R`.
rol-ing stock consisted of 598 locomo- tives. 588 first and second class passen- get and colonist cars; 99 first class- sleeping and dining cars; 30 parlor and odicial cars; 312 conductor’s vans; 15.- 544 freight and cattle cars, besides re- frigeratoroars, flat coil cars, palace horse cars, etc, bringing the whole up within a little of 22.000, which placed in continuous line would extend at least
60 leagues. If the C. P. R. does not own ships it is not without ateamere, take the following list: Empress of India, Empress of China, Empress of Japan, magnificent floating castles trad- ing between Cauada and far eastern realms; the Pacific coast steamers, such as Tar-ter, Athenian, etc., besides about two dozen river and lake boats. some of them over 3000 tens. Then as to rel-1 estate; from the province of British
