Only the Quebec end of the work has been authorized but the On- tario power area has heen survey- ed and ofiicially approved. As a matter of fact the whole. power system at the Chats rapids fs ob- vlously anticipated, as evidenced by "the stability of the work al- ready done on both sides of the] _provinciel boundary line in the Ot- fawa. .The development on the Quebec side of the river is being { operated the trading post in that vicinity and still further back to the day that Samuel de Champlain ascended from the lower reaches of the Ottawa to the level of the [Rapides des Chats, a few hundred vards from the site where will now stand the spattous power house, aud there erected a red cedar cross proclaiming "The land and the waters as the = pessession of France." : Pour hundred men are mow at work; a right-of-way has been cut through the woods for the C.N.R.| on the Ontario side and today the steel is laid, to the Quebec boun- dary; huge cranes unload the great pieces of British Columbia fir and cedar; tons of rock have been blasted and removed for the right- of-way, then came the grading gang and immediately following them were the men with the steel, The crib work of the railway is to be utilized in part as the coffer dam d. that structure is being construdyed for several hundreds, of yardsl. extending almost . to Mohr's Island, which is the centre of the river and will ultimately be the centre of the work. With the completion of the cofferdam con- struction of the permanent con- crete dam nearly three miles in length, and the power house, will be commenced. It is not antici- pated the project will be complet- ed for three years. To create a head capable of de- veloping 250,000 horsepower, it will be necessary to raise the wat- approached from the Ontario side srherc all work is of a permanent character. * The location about 15 miles tawa.
