Proposed Lines to Peace River Being Examined C N. R. Engineers Now Examining Route Via Brule Lake to Grande Prairie. La.t Week Party M»de Examination of P. G. E. Line a* Far a» Quetnel Last Friday a party of Canadian National engineers left the main line of the railway near Brule Lake with the object oi making an exhaustive report on the proposed Brule Lake extension of the national lijie to Grande Prairie or Sturgeon Lake. All possible information on proposed routes to the Peace River country is being gathered for the conference of railway and Alberta and B.C. governments to be held at Winnipeg in January. The presence of a party of Canadian National railway officials aboard a special train over the Pacific Great Eastern a week ago gave rise to much speculation at Quesnel whether the frequent rumors that the national system was to take over the British Columbia line were not about to be confirmed. Canadian National and Pacific Great Eastern officials' explain the trip was taken in preparation for the conference in January next between the Canadian Pacific and Canadian National heads, the Dominion government and the British Columbia and Alberta governments to discuss railway connection between the coast and the Peace River country, with special reference whether the most feasible route is by way of Brule or Prince George. The Canadian National party con-siated of A. E. Warren, general manager of western lines; J, R. Cameron, assistant general manager; D. R. Campbell, of Winnipeg, superintendent of contraction; S. C. Gzowski, chief engineer of the C.N.R., and other ofFicials. The only Pacific Great Eastern man in the party was G. T. Livingstone, maintenance of way superintendent. The party arrived at Quesnel from Squamish at 5 o'clock and left seven hours later for Clinton where cars were taken for the auto trip of thirty-five miles- to Ashcroft.-Messs. Warren and Campbell went to Victoria immediately on their return. Several months ago M. H. McLeod, consulting engineer for the Canadian National, made extensive investigations into tho situation. After his recent trip to Vancouver, Sir Henry Thornton visited the Peace River district. Following so close on these trips the visit of other officials lends credence to the general rumor that the conference in January will finally determine "the Peace River route and that legislatve action, giving the Canadian National authority to build into the Peace River will follow. Premier King, during his western tour, just completed, spoke in favor of Peace River connection, and in view of the strong sentiment throughout the West in favor of giving the settlers in that section of the Dominion adequate railway facilities at the earliest date, it is quite within the possibilities that the whole matter will be definitely decided at the next session of parliament. STUART LAKE LODGE BURNED. I Just completed in anticipation of . catering to tourist nnd hunting par-j ties visiting the district next year, a splendid lodge embodying all the i features of a hotel, erected by Paul Walter on Stuart Lake, near Fort St. James, was completely wiped out by , fire last week. Mr. Walter arrived with his family last April from Ore- ; gon and spent several days in the I district with R. G. \T. Lett, C.N.R. colonization agent, who was instru-mental in bringing him in. The dc- j struction of the lodge is a distinct loss to the district besides' a personal one to Mr. Walter, for it was anticipated it would be used extensively and would be an added attraction to a district that abounds with all manner of game. It is understood it will be rebuilt. South of the Churchill river in Saskatchewan there are thirty-two million acres of forest land unfit for agriculture. Of this area about one-fifth (somewhat over six million acres) has been set aside as forest reserves.
