EXPEGT GOVERNMENT T0 HELP WITH AMOS RAILWAY Quebec Government Anxious Building of Connecting Line, But Thinks Dominion Should A delegation of about 200 waited upon Premier Taschereau on Saturâ€" day to urge the building of a railway to link up Amos, Quebee, with Mont Laurier, Maniwaki and Montreal. The delegation included representaâ€" tives of the councils and boards of trade of the Amos and other districts affected, members of the House of Commons, the Quebec Legislature, the Montreal, Ottawa and Hull councils and boards of trade and others. The delegation were chiefly concerned in the opening up of what is known as the Abitibi region, and the Northâ€" western section of Quebee generally. This was felt to be most probably advanced by direet connection with Montreal, Hull, ete., through the building of the proposed Abitibi Norâ€" thern Railway. Premier â€" Taschereau stated â€" that there were two methods of subsidizâ€" ing a railway, by grant of land or of money. _ The former would not be conâ€" sidered for a monent as Quebec was definitely opposed to such land subâ€" sidies. The latter would mean $%,â€" 400 a mile for each of the 240 miles asked. â€" He inquired whether members of the delegation considered that it be just for the provincial government to bear the entire brunt of this cost. The government of Canâ€" ada was assisting in the development of railways in the West and were the Federal authorities to assist, the soluâ€" tion of the Abitibi distriect question would be a comparatively easy one. Premier Taschereau stated that folâ€" lowing a Cabinet meeting at Quehec a month ago, he had instructed the Minister of Colonization and Forests to investigate the advisability and adâ€" vantages to be derived by such a railâ€" way. He was later informed as a reâ€" sult of these investigations â€" that along the line would be nearly impossible.""‘ Regarding the exploitation of the abundant foresis in the district, there was a feeling in certain quarters that this should be left intact as a reserve in view of the present superabundance of output. | In conclusion, he stated that "wc! are in full sympathy with the proâ€"| ject and if you can convince the Fedâ€"| eal authorities to, march hand in hand with us a solution will be easy.""‘ The delegation last week at Monâ€" treal to meet the Premier of Quebec was introduced by Dr. Poulin, M.L.A., who called attention to the representâ€" ative nature of the gathering and the number of localities represented. _ _ George Henderson of the Montreal Board of board trade and C. H. Catelli of the Montreal Chambre de Comâ€" merce showed that at present, 80 en en en n en in ied t nc oc c en mm mommmemen e mannment en en en Premier Taschereau told the deleâ€" gation that the Quebee Government would do its share, provided the Federal Government would also hold up its proper end. ~ sw per cent. of this dis to Toronto although . in direct mileage, w eric Martin, also of per cent. of this district‘s trade goes to Toronto although Montreal is closer in direct mileage, while Mayor Medâ€" eric Martin, also of Montreal, declarâ€" ed that such a project was to the adâ€" vantage of the district and the enâ€" tire province. As Mayor of Montreal he urged a favorable reply from the Premier. Rev.. Father A. Genier of Mont Laurier spoke in a similar vein. F. W. Perras, M.P., for Wright county said that he had the opening up of such a line very much at heart and reviewed the advantages to be derived. A. A. Legault, former mayâ€" or of Maniwaki and warden of Hull and Wright counties, declared that it would mean the opening up of an adâ€" ditional 10 or 15 parishes. Shipment of wood by Maniwaki would mean a saving of $4 a cord. Total Aid 49 54 ()0 |B4 148 140 10 16 for ; 10 13 0 o Rev. Fath clared that daily crying is up to you, vantages of deel lor i2 years.

He added that such mines as the Norâ€" anda and the Abana had marvellous indications and were the government to wait until mines were developed it would be too late to recapture the lost trade. H,. Authier, M.L.A. for Abitibi, deâ€" clared that the Government would eventuailly be deriving $600,000 a year from the exploitation of the forests in this district and that an immediate advantage of at least half this would result.

Gagâ€" non‘s mutilated body was picked up on the railway tracks west of Cochâ€" rane on Jan. 22nd and report made to the provincial police at Cochrane who took charge of the case. At the inâ€" quest some thirty witnesses were callâ€" ed and gave mulcnce but there was no direct evidence as to how (GGagnon ‘ame to his death. It appeared to be certain that he was run over by a train and the probabilities were along the line that he had fallen from the train on Jan. 21st, on which train he was a westâ€"bound passenger.
