T Route by Sault of this "compromise TrOWie ‘ ‘mre on solid ground in condemning the «‘sgault Ste. Marie route by way of the "*Mbeky north shore cof Lake Superior as absurd and impossible.. Chapleau has "‘been taking a special interest in this * wicalled "compromise" route, and here ‘"i a despatch last week from Chapâ€" Cleau, quoting men who ought to know: Frospectors, lumber men, fire rangâ€" * ‘efs, ‘missionaries, trappers, fur buyers S‘afid geroplane pilots who have flown over the country unite in extolling the _ meany advantages of the central route ‘for the transâ€"Canada highway, over ‘#ither of the other proposed routes while they are equally strong in conâ€" "demning the Lake Superior route. "‘It is ridiculous to even think of _putting â€" a highway along the lake * shore,"‘declares Ben Harrop, pilot with the Consolidated Mining and Smelting _ Co., who has flown across Northern _ Ontario many times. "The rocky barâ€" ‘ren territory would offer tremendous difficulties in building and the season * would be much shorter than on the proâ€" â€" Bchreiber. The Advance believes that ‘*the logical route is by way of the Ferâ€" *"gtison highway west to Hearst and ‘from there westward again, with conâ€" ‘rnéction to Oba, Chapleau, etc.. a matâ€" ‘"*ter "of provincial roads. However, the ‘jected inland route. It is so far beâ€" tween places that there no prospect of anyone ever building a town there as ‘the only possible revenue for a business would be from tourists. _ â€"I don‘t think any tourist would ever want to enter Ontario at the Sault and then be headed back again at the head of the lakes, without having seen the interior of : Ontario. "From the air the shore of Lake Suâ€" perior appears the roughest country in Ontario, and there are regular young mountain ranges along the lake shore. bitive," Mr. Harrop thought the transâ€" Canada highway should tie up with the: transâ€"Canada aerial system, the landâ€". ing fields for which are now being con-1 structed in the northern part of the province. | Game Warden Knows Country L. 8. Hemphill, game warden located in the heart of the Chapleau game preserve on Big Missinabie Lake, and who knows every inch of the country between Oba and Chapleau along the: Mississauga valley, declares it an ideat tourist country. To ons 300 The cost would undoubtedly be prohi-‘ "There is teeming wild life and plenty of great speckled trout fishing in the headwaters of the rivers startâ€" ing in the park," <he ‘said. "Tourists would be thrilled with a drive through the densely wooded forests, where they would be certain to see game of every kind. It is fairly level country and very easy to build a road through." | "Jack Green, former deputy chief fire ranger, travelled through most of the country by canoe. He» was delighted with the prospect.of the country being opened, because, he ‘declared, some parts are almost ingaccessible by water. With the highway built ‘through the central section, it would be a great asâ€" sistance in helping the fire rangers traâ€" verse the country speedily with supâ€" plies. He extolled the beauties of Adison Lake. "An ideal place for camps," he declared. "It is the most beautiful spot in Northern Ontario. There is a sand beach around threeâ€"quarters of the lake and the water is as clear as crystal and green as an emerold. The country is as untouched now as it was a thouâ€" sand years ago." CE e en ie +4 Sees No Comparison ~‘Vic. OCrichton, exâ€"forest ranger, fisherman and with an intimate knowâ€" ledge of both Lake Syuperior shore line and the Mississauga Valley route says: ‘"‘There could be no comparison beâ€" tween the two routes as far as ease of building a road is concerned. From Batthawana Bay to Schreiber is one continuous stretch of mountainous rocks, broken only where about 80 riâ€" vers find their way into Superior and all of these rivers would be hard and very expensive to bridge. The country along the lake shore is practically deâ€" void of game. but there are great forests of timber. land is good and you couldn‘t find more picturesque rivers for canoe in the ‘whole province." "Along the â€"Massissauga Valley route there iswondgrful scenery, not just conâ€" tinuous roc[m and water as the lake route oï¬ers.,, The hunting is of the best and moose and deer are especially plenâ€" tiful. Wonderful fishing in all the lakes and streams and the Chapleau game preserve offers grand chances for the tourist to doâ€"some camera hunting on wild life."* Charlie Sanders was, , mnjl carrier mmdummmndemwr "I‘ve been through the whole counâ€" try," he said. "Most people think it is westward to Already in the section partly comâ€" pleted south of Chapleau a group are working on a free gold discovery with assays as high as $300 to the tonâ€"and a copper vein showing. From Healy to Oba is another goldâ€"bearing formation. All these many scattered sections would be brought together by this route. Speaks for Sportsmen Rev. H. Hesketh travelled the water route from Peterbell on the C.N.R. to Missinabie on the C.P.R. as a sportsâ€" man and tourist, and knows a very considerable amount of the territory between Missinabie, Peterbell and Chapleau, he said : prospector‘s tour, from north of Bolâ€" kow to north of Missinabie. According to their account a road through their section would be most satisfactory from a prospector‘s point of view, connectâ€" ing as it would innumerable mining ditions are most favourable to farming. It would also benefit iumbering operâ€" utions, he believed. Rev. Father Gascon and Mr. G. L. districts throughout the country. Reâ€" garding mining discoveries, the central route would reach the same country as would the Lakeshore route, there being only a difference of a few miles to connect these points. "From a point of view of economy as to building and (maintenance of a highway through this territory, this route would appear to be the most feaâ€" sible, being comparatively easy of grade and approximately following the height of land," he said "In addition, such a road would give access to a country which is a veritable sportsman‘s deâ€" light." Mr. Godfrey, who was Indian agent for 20 years, travelled all over both the districts by canoe, on foot and by plane. Speaking from his cight years of exâ€" perience of road building in the north, he said that there was. no comparison so far as economy â€"went, between the lakeshore route and the central route. bé easily secured. _ . _ _ _ _ > _ ~William .McLeod, fur. dea,ler merâ€" chant and Indianâ€"agent from 1913 to 1916, found the country via Mississauga Valley route most favourable. ‘He said that there ‘were no rocks to contendl with and the route would not touch any muskeg. He travelled throughout the ceuntry by cance, and on the railroad: Phil" Sauve, pilot for the Eclipse Airâ€" ways, has flown over most of northern Ontario. He has flown over both the lakeshore route and the Mississauga Valley route. - From Chapleau to Oba is a low rollâ€" ing plain, and there would be little rock to contend with, he ‘said: Following the height of land would make the river crossing a very simple feat.

They found the country beautiful and picâ€" turesque. There is a forest of maple, and in the fall of the year it is one of the most striking pictures one could wish for. Has Travelled Country Edgar Pellow, merchant and lumberâ€" man, with places of business in both Hearst and Chapleau, says: "I have some knowledge of the country along which the Mississauga Valley route should go, as well «as having traversed the country between Franz and Hearst via ACR. many times, and have moâ€" tared from Hearst to North Bay over the Ferguson Highway. I am led to conclude that if the proposed route from White River to Schreiber is anyâ€" thing like the section on the A.C.R. from Franz to the Sault there is no question as to the scenery, but when you have said that you have said all. "When oneâ€"considers that for every ï¬ve ‘miles advanced as the crow flies about 7 1â€"2 miles of actual road buildâ€" ing must be done, it is readily underâ€" stood what curves. and crooks are neâ€" cessary, and where this is encountered there is always a greater degree of h Bs tb C k V" d o jut hacard" to ‘theâ€" person travellinig. _ {‘By way of comparison take thef highway. .through the clay belt, where one can.see, in many places, 10 ahead, and where the roadâ€" building mileage is actual.

In other cases the reference to taxaâ€" tion is made where the manufaeturer or merchant deems it advisable that patrons shall know that the industry or‘ institution they represent are burâ€" dened with discriminatory taxes. The ‘automobile industry is one which makes use of the words ‘"plus taxes" when quoting prices, while people o ) make use of Pullman accommodation find on examining their tickets an item showing the tax imposed on travellers by that means. It is the custom with some instituâ€" tions when quoting rates to call the attention of patrons to the growing sigâ€" nificance of the rise in taxation when prices of services or commodities are in question. 7 In some cases the showing of the item of taxation is demanded by the Government as is the case of the sales The growth of the habit of Governâ€" ments to engage in commercial enterâ€" prises had made it desirable that the public shall realize that privatelyâ€" owned utilities are compelled to proâ€" vide for expenses from which their competitors are free, a striking examâ€" ple being furnished by the railroad inâ€" dustry. + § It should be obvious to thinking peoâ€" ple that institutions which are called upon t© contribute large sums towards the conduct of the nation‘s business, including the maintenance of: socia‘ services, thave but ‘one source from which these institutions can provide the taxes they are called upon to pay, which is the revenue they derive from their customers, and if the amount of WESTERN GEM deep mined CANADIAN COF _ Dinosaurs roamed Alberta.
