Realizing this fact,-advanees-have been made time and again to systems other than the O.P.R., with a view to securing a competing transportation line for the city. The circumstance, however, of the new) trans-continental trunk lines being located far to the north appeared to present an in- surmountable obstacle to obtaining the de- sired end, until the Alberta Government recently promulgated a policy of railway development which gave Medicine Hat the opening which we had been anticipating) for so many years. The chance came with the announcement that the Canadian Nor thern would complete its Goose Lake li from the eastern boundary of the Provinc to the junction with the Vegreville-Calgary line just north of the crossing of the Red Deer River. Fortunately at this physico- logical moment we had a friend .at court in the person of Hon. C. R. Mitchell, who was able to present the claims of Medicine Hat consented to guarantee the bonds of a north and south line through Bruderheim and Vermilion and thence to the boundary of the United States, passing through Medi- cine Hat. Not only has this concession been secu- red, but the assurance has been given that with the completion of the Goose Lake ex- tension, this fall, construction will immedi- ately begin on the Medicine Hat branch. The distance to be covered between the Goose Lake extension and this city is.less than one hundred miles. The deduction is a simple one a year-from this fall Canad- ian Northern Agents will be soliciting freight and passenger business in Medi- cine Hat. : t Those who are in touch with publie affairs in this city know that in every in- stance the only feature of the Medicine Hat situation that has militated against the ld- cating of many additional industries here, is the lack of railway competition.. With the altering of this condition of affairs, ing of the foundations for a great indust- rial centre. Aside from the fact that the entrance of the Canadian Northern into Medicine Hat will superinduce the conditions referred to in the preceding paragraph, there are other factors introduced into the situation which are of no inconsiderable moment. The mere presenee of a competing railway line in the eity was the ambition on whie all effort has been concentrated but the entrance of the Canadian Northern means far-more than this to Medicine Hat, The line in question opens up the whole eastern end of the province making it direetly tri- ibutary-to-this-city and connects up all the East and West lines of the various roads running north of us. Just what this signi- fies can perhaps be better understood by a reference to the map. It will also be seen that we are given direct access to the great north country. That there is even more in store for the city and district than is apparent on the face of this railway announcement is evi- dent. It is to the south that we must now turn. What railway connection in this direction will.do for us is, of course, a mat- ter as yet of conjecture and not certainty. The citizens and settlers have been so plea- sed witn the proposal of the new line enter- ing the city that very little thought has -been-given-to-speculation regarding what the road would do after it had left Medicine Hat. On this point the charter simply says and thence to the Southern boundary of the Provin e. The southern Koundary of the province is the northern boundary of the State of Montana.
