Chapleau, with its fine pu‘bslic buildings, schools, churches,, hospital, ‘electric light, concrete sidewalks, and fine locazion in a tourists‘ paradise, inâ€" " |vites comparrison as a probable halfâ€" Q_ way stop on the projected highway. population of over 2,000 needs an i cutlet, and they are dâ€"termined to leave i |no stone unturned to gain tha‘ end, but, at the same time, in the transâ€"Canada highway controversy, the fact that the whole people of Canada will ul:imately have to bear the cost, local fseling is submerged in a greater desire to see that the transâ€"Canada highway comâ€" bines the greatest measure of gocd to all the people, with the lowest possible . cost. .;In the compromise routs it is felt these two features are ideally combined. |Hence the rousing enthusiasm during' |Saturday night‘s mee:ing, which armed local delegates with resolutions to preâ€" sent to Premier Henry, Hon. Chas. Mcâ€" Crea and Hon. Wm. Finlayson, calling for thorough aerial survey of the comâ€" ) promise route along with other suggestâ€" ‘led routes; careful consideration of mileâ€" j age, cost,.population and territory to be ’t*' served, scenic and other tourist adâ€" |\mntages. Chapleau opinion is to the lt:f,[ect; that the compromise roule will gain rather than lose by comparison, sn all counts, and have . instructed sopkssmen to wait on the cabinet members at the earlies;, moâ€" ment ‘to again present their views. It is A@eclared the soâ€"called unanimity of the Torth will receive a severe set back, when the Gelegation reaches Queen‘s Park, for jhe conduct of the North Bay ccnference was such, according to the delegates, that only a confused idea of the wishes of the municipalities could be arrived at. Voting strength is deâ€" clared to have 2een on the basis of one man one vote, whereas chis was nct in accordance with advertised intention, one delegate carrying proxies from 15 or 16 municipalities, each entitled to three votes, getting the same voice as one delega‘s from the Sault or other centre. The.â€"Chapleau delegates, howâ€" ever, so far from being discouraged by the turn of events at North Bay, believe their case has been strengthenéd in the fact that once the suppor.ers for the northern route saw that:+their route was lost they fell in with the Chapleau deleâ€" gate; behind ithe complomise route, delegzates from Kapuskasing and Timâ€" mins being the strongest supporters of the Chapleau backed route. In view of this, further steps are projected to seâ€" cure additional strengih and backing for the Mississauga Valley route by further careful canvass of northern and other municipalities." | | | 1 | TEMAGAMI MAN GiVEN TERM ONX CHARGE OF VAGRKANCY Another Protest at the Bay Conference Chaplean â€" Public Meeting Registers Sweepin: Condemnation the Tactics Empleoyed at the Recent Soâ€"called Conference. rgy came last week of a meeling it Charyeau to protest against ths lzd conference recently held a‘ Bay and to disown and disavow ody and all its works.
