Many in this North Land are specâ€" ially interested in the matter of Alâ€" berta coal for Ontario. â€" When The Advance published two weeks ago the despatch from Ottawa showing that the North Land would not be discrimâ€" inated against as some had feared, but that the $6.75 freight rate applied to all Ontario there was general satisâ€" faction here. According to the orderâ€" inâ€"council referred to in the despatch, in cases where the coal came over two railroads, as it would in this part of the North, the $6.75 rate still applied, the railways receiving pro rata of the $6.75. The interest in the shipâ€" ping of Alberta coal was indicated by the lively discussions taking place at the Timmins and jother ‘boards of trade.
