INTERCOLONIAL EXTENSION, Sin,—The Governor-General, in his | speech, announced the fact that hie Gov- ernment has decided to railway from Quebec to Montreal.

Dominion allow vast sums of money to be building new railways, it bebooves them to enquire m'emplated line is nec-ssary to development of the country aud the de- mands of traffic or not? la this case there cau be but one answer. Already there are | two lines of railway, which are more than | eufficient for the traffic, and a third is | clearly noi wanted. It will add nothing to | the convenience of passengers, and will | not lessen to any extent the freight charges | Bat it leads through seven con- -titnencies, | and will have the effect of consolidating | them in the interests of the “ pairty.

The building of this line will be « shameless waste of pablic money, and furnishes painful evidence cf the truth of i the boast of the Quebecers, that they are | * Masters of the Administration.” | The independent (?) Guardian swaliows, | with a smile, this dose of corruption which | may yet turo the stomach of many a sound grit! He adds: “It will be a much more justifiable thiog to ae extend the Inter- colonial than to expend mitlions on the Crow’s Nest road.” happen to know something of both districts. The Crow’s Nest Pass gives access, by an easy grade, tu | British Columb: a and opens up 4 region of untold mineral resources, the Passe itself having invaluable miece of coal, the best of limestone and magnificent timber —ihe former indispensable to prcfitable | mining and the two latter n:uch necded by the prople of the prairies.

The only access tothe mines of the Kootenay is by an American line. Oa this subject Mr. Andrews, a business man of Winnipeg, ioterested in mining, says he | believes “that every day’ 3 delay in the completion of the Crow’s Nest Railway means a great loes to the people of eastern Canada.” The Americans are now supply- | ing all the wants of the country, which is developing g eo rapibly that he estimates = will be 100,000 peopie in West Kootenay by the Ist of January next.

Here is a great mineral district, which would give a market for manufac- | tures and farm products, crippled and cut off from the rest of Canada, workisg bard to make wealthy the people of a toreign country by no means friendly to us for want ot a railway which wonld greaily tacilitate their business and distribute the wealth amongst our own people by supply- ing their wants. Yet an “independent ’ newspaper justifies the Government in building @ line where two are already ruo- ning, aod condemns the Crow’s Nest Rail- way which is acknowledged by ail who understand the subject, including the Min- ister of Railways himself, to be a neces— sity not only to the mining districts but to the whole of Canada.

Accordingly it was decided that Sir Richard Cartwright should repy. ‘This accounts for his moving the adj uroment of the debate.
