When steel of the Hudson Bay Railway reached here the vision of the late Captain William Beach, pioneer homesteader of Churchill. who , constantly preached the Churchill mouth as the only site for a railway terminus to the Hud- son Bay, also was fulfilled. Capt, Beach died in Winnipeg in January, 1927, six months before eo. final decision to change from ort Nelson was announced : by »Hon. C. A. Dunning, minister of reflways and canals, a decision reached on the report and recom- mendations of Frederick Palmer, Port of London engineer and ex- pert of the British admiralty, en- gaged by the government for the purpose of examining Nelson and Churchill. developed with almost unlimited potentialities. The latest at announge- ment shows that the plans are to carry the finishing 'of the * line through this summer working beth south and north and by the sum- mer of 1930 the port will be open. Harbor material will be hasten in, and at the same time ballast ing will proceed to bfing the line up to the standard at least of Can- adian Natiomal branch linés. Next will come progress on 'harbor works, completing equipment transferred from Nelson to Caurch- ill when the terminus was definite- ly decided.

'"We had worked hard for 15 years, saving for our children, We had almost enough to retire. Then we were cheated. We began falling back~----." Her voice broke and she was unable to say any more. Detectives busied themselves with a systematic search of the apartment, looking in Campbell's desk for papers, searching his let- ter files and scrutinizing his per- sonal effects, What they found gave them a picture mot only of the Jeckyl-Hyde existence his con- fession had revéaled, but also of an home." : yo accentric personality that defled their understanding.

CUTLER, Librarian With Mr. Dunning's decision that work would start forthwith in August 1927, the grade to Nelson from Kettle Rapids was abandon- ed, and the line laid north. Work on the line to connect The Pas with Hudson Bay began in 1911 with Churchill as the end in view. The change to Port Nelson was announced in the house of com- | mons by Hon. Frank Cochrane, | | Radios-Phonographs-Records minister of railways, Feb. 26, 1913, with the qualification '"unless upon completion of survey -and inspec- tion it might be thought advisabla to decide otherwise." A vote of $4,600,000 was submitted, in May, 1913, for the building of the road and a decision to carry on was reached in August of that year. Hon. Frank Oliver maintainea his preference for Churchill, and a controversy raged throughout the west on the question of choice till Mr. Dunning, on Palmer's report selected Churchill. Steel was then at Mile 350 and the new route call- ed for 150 miles more, which, it was estimated would be finished by this spring, and is now accomplish- ed, except for the dressing, as there is a great deal of steel laid on froz- en muskeg which requires consid- erable ballast. Though estimates of engineers are that trafic will not be general over the line to tide. water before September, the ulti« . mate achievement is hailed as se- cure by all advocates of the Hud- son Bay route as an ocean outlet for Western Canada. Against the extra cost of build- ing a railway 87 miles farther, to reach Churchill, was set the extra cost of harbor work to fit Nelson for its purpose. Recently it was announced from Ottawa by Mr. Dunning that the reaching of tide- water with steel laying was in sight, and that preparations are ai~ or contemplated for a ceremon- {al opening of the line, in which he deemed it most appropriate that Senator, Right Hon. George P, Gra- ham, former minister of railways and canals in the Laurier govern- ment should officiate, he having turned the first sod in the con- struction. It is proposed, Mr. Dun- ning said to ask Senator Graham to drive the last spike some time this summer, when actual shipping will be more nearly possible. Though Manitoba and Saskatch- ewan have longed for this culmina- tion of a dream of fifty years, and agitation had been waged continu- ously to bring about the construc tion of a railway to the Hudson Bay, as an outlet for prairie grain, in particular, as an alternative to the railway haul to Montreal, Que- bec, St. John, Halifax, or New York, the most coherent efforts in this direction were manifested in 1924 with the organization in Win- nipeg of the On-to the Bay associa- tion, with Brig.-Gen. R. W. Pat- terson as .presiednt. Meetings of the association, mass meetings with motion pictures, and speeches advocating prosecution of . the work, were held in Winnipeg, Sas« katoon, Regina and other places in the two provinces, and though there seemed a different of opin- jon as to which port should be- come the terminus, the association avoided that topic to stress the me- cessity of the railway to "The Bay." . That politics had nothing to do with the association was evidenced at many meetings, where Premier Bracken neither presided or took part, with ex-Premier Norris and Col. F. G. Taylor, M.L.A., the lead- er, respectively of the Liberal and Conservative parties in the Manito- ba house, assisting the movement in every way. At a meeting here was seen and heard O. D. Hill, of elfort, the town now chosen as e junction of the Canadian Na- tional line from Saskatoon, head- ing for the bay. Mr. Hill represent- ed the association boards of trade of Saskatchewan. Premier Bracken's remarks at the annual meeting in 1925 callea attention to the progress then vise fble in the construction of the road. The power possibilities of the Nel- son river since have received much attention; the pulpwood resources of the territory have been travers- ed, and in the north country gen- erally, also the mining possibilities, which have since been immensely | Genuine Bargains For All!
