In tact it is quite likely a million dollars could be saved had the C.P.R. another year to finish, the work; yet the pressing demands of the Kootenay require the lino to be pushed through at once and sure enough Mr. Haney says the vals will be at the shore of Kootenay Lake, 280 miles from Lethbridge, by October uext. This will give the cempany a 60 -mile stretch of deep water to Nelson, but the manager says that the locatiou ef this last section, of read is now being revised, and that the work viall be carried forward with as much energy as the eastern section.
