By the article printed in another column it will be seen that the new road is to enter two of the richest districts in the great • country tributary to Hazelton--the anthracite coalfields of ti/e up- per Skeena and the gold camps of the Omineca river district.

Its construction will inevitably lend impetus to the development of the entire district, bringing increased business to this town, while there Other districts, possessing great, resources, which are nearer to Hazelton than to any point on the projected ,road, and which are likely to remain tributary to this town.

].he season of activity in Groundhog and the Omineca camps is already beginning, a number of surveying and prospecting p;arties having already left Hazelton, as well as a large amount of freight, which will be followed in the course of a few weeks by several

working crews, which will continue development operations. The business men of this town have good reason to feel confident that I Hazelton will continueto be, as it has been for many years, the] distributing point for a great and rich district. I

New Game Regulations Marked improvement in the

observance of the provincial game laws is the outstanding feature of the annual report submitted to the Legislature last week by the chief game warden, Mr. A. Bryan WilJiams. This faet is attributed in a

large measure to the new regula- tions enforced lastyear with re- gard to the carrying of firearms, and also to the fact that the num- berof deputies, both temporary and permanent, was increased. There is not the least doubt,

says the report, that there was not anything like as much game killed before the season opened this year as last year, and this remark applies with particular force in the vicinities of construc- tion camps, where last year, be- fore the season opened there was a regular epidemic of poaching.

Mr. Williams has some inter- esting things to say in regard to the license which has been en,

" forced during the year. On this point he says that it is doubtful if any previous amendment' to the Game Act had been simpler to enforce or more effectiee in operation. He makes an interest. ing point about the necessity.of increased attention being paid to the issuiug of licenses in order to prevent boys under 16 years of age from "~ecuring them. During the year, according to the returns received, 206 informa-

- tions were laid under the (lame Act, and 10 more by deputy game wardens under the Dominion Fisheries Act. Two of the cases have not ye t been tried, but of the remainder tines were imposed in 171 cases, 10 pet~sons being sent to jail, and in 16 cases the firearms were confiscated', !~:: The fines amounted to $ ,287. ?..: .:' ,

there were no actual record heads taken away, the returns were satisfactory in every degree.

[ The chief game Warden relates an interesting experience with the Indian guides in Cassiar. They apparently decided to emu- late the white man's method, and formed a sort. of. guides', union, with a vieW tO striking for high- er wages when they thought such a step necessary.... Having done this; .they resolved to ask $10 per day for head guides and a slightly lower rate for the underlings. After considerable discussmn, the Indians were brought to a more reasonable appreciation of. things and values,, and the situation is free from the threat of a strike.

An interesting section of th~ report deals with the destruetior of dangerous animals and birds, and in this connection it is stated that bounties have been pa.id during the. year on 232 coogars, 277 wolvesl 1,618 coyotes and 58 golden eagles. Mr. Williams regrets that there has not been any diminution in thegnumber of cougars.• In regard to:.. wolves and coyotes there has been a con- siderable~'re(iuction, ~lie comPara~ tive figures for wolves being 277, against 467 las~y.ear,.and in re- gard to c0yotes, 1,618 as against 3,017. ., :; ~ '

Dealing With the fur industry, gr. Williams Says that it is stili a most uncertain : -problem, al. though ,prb.gnafit with possibili- ties, and he recommends: that every effort should be made to devel0p:it. $o far, be' saysi few people have any kno~vledge of how to go-about the industry, although it is .a question that affects the whoie of candda, and :has beeh~found worthy of the attention of the Domin]0n goD. ernment. Owing to the mild climate, he. doe_s not think' the Coast iaqaite Suitable for some specfes,:but ilr the iilterior sec- tions o f the province he reports that there ard thousands of aeres suitable foi" the development o f the industry.

The new Pacific, Peace River & Athabssca railway, which is seeking a charter at Ottawa, is attracting much attention in t h e west. Surveyors will gointo the field in March or early- in April, and' construction work will be begun some time in the spring of 1915.

The line has been laid out with a view of draining the magnifi- cent Groundhog coal basin, in which Mr. Thomas and his asso- ciates have secured large inter- ests. The line will also tap the coal fields along the Peace river, will pass through the Omineca miningcountry, and it aims to make a bid for the transporta- tion of wheat by its sections through Alberta and Saskatche- wan.

At Prince Albert, Sask., the Pacific, Peace River & Athabasca railway will secure connection with the big Canadian ~transcon- tinentals and connections with the railway systems of America. It will also be in a position to enter the Hudson Bay district through the pass.

The promoters plan to build the road from Nasoga gulf, in the Portland canal, and very near the mouth, o f the Naas river, From that point the line ,,:viii cross British Columbia an/d wil l go through theJmountains by Hogem pass. The grade there is said to be .91 per cent, about the best mountain grade obtainable. Hogem pass is about 375 miles northwest of the Yellowhead pass, through which the G. T. P. ancl C. N. R. enter British Co- lumbia.

Except for sections along the Naas river, where it approaches as close as twenty miles to the main line of the G. T. P., the P. P. R.& A. will open up a terri- tory that is hundreds of miles away from the nearest railwa.y at the present time.

David Alfred Thomas, 122 Ashley Gardens, S. W., London, England, is the leading figure in the promotion of the line. He has acquired extensive coal areas by purchase or by option, and is said to be fnterested in other mineral lands in northern British Columbia. He is one of the most wealthy coal barons in the world, and the annual output of c0al from his Welsh mines'ex- ceeds by 5,000,000 tons the an- nual output of coal from Cana- dian coal mines.

From Nasoga bay, or the .mouth of the Naas, the line will run northeast up the Naas for a distance of 225 miles to the height of land between the Naas and the Skeena watershed, then down Courier creek to the Skeena and down the Skeena to the mouth of Bear river, and up the Bgar river to Bear lake and then ahross the divide in a' southerly direction to Driftwood river, and down the Driftwood river to North Tacla lake and from that lake to.Hogem pass.

After leavingthe pass, the line Will go to the Omineca .river, thence easterly to the Findlay branch .of~the Peace river and then down the north side of the main Peace river and easterly • and northerly to Vermillion rap- ids or chutes in the province of Alberta. Thence crossing the Peace river at the falls or chutes and continuing down the right bank of the Peace river, the rail- waygoeS(to Point Providence, ~henee in. an easterly :direction to the mouth of the Athabasca river,, then up the Athabasca ~tf.FOR MeMurray, m an easterly dl~'deti0'n" to the Clem'water river, thence:to the Pembina river and
