WINNIPEG, Sept. 18th, 1,908.
Editor of Tn.0 HERALD.
DEAR lana :—As promised to some
of the Zurich people, to give them
a short sketch of our journey to the
west, now proceed to, fulfill it :
We left Hensall on the 1.5th of
the month, and as this was one of
the cheap clays to the Great West-
ern Fair, at. London, the train was
so crowded that we were forced to
take .the platform steps for our
seats, but after leaving London for
Toronto, the accommodation was
better. When we arrived at Toren
to, 2.30, we.found a great crowd. at
the Union Station, and still more
arriving. When the first train was
made np for the west, 'thousands of
people were ready to board it, and
such a jani I never saw. It kept
the police busy to keep the crowd
back. We were able to board the
fourth train, which contained four-
teen coaches, and how many follow
ed after that I do not know.
Toronto is a fine city, and is a
credit to Canada. • The population
is 201,040—the Capitol of Ontario—
and the nest city of importance to
Montreal, in the Dominion. It is
situated nn.the shore of Lake Onta-
rio, and has a most complete Rail-
road system, reaching out to every
important lilacs and district in the
Province. It has imnnense manu-
facturing establishments and some
of the largest Commercial Houses
in the country, and its educational
institutions are widely known.
From Toronto we went to North
Bay -; on the route are seine attrac-
tive towns, such as Allendale and
Barrie, on the shore of lake Simcoe
noted as fine -summer resorts. Next
town was Orillia, where one will
see some fine structures and partic-
filarly its • fine Assylum. After
leaving this town, night set in, and
the first place we struck in the
morning was North Bay, which is
13SI5 miles north of Toronto.
North Bay has a population of
2,530, the capital town oaf the Nip-.
pissing District. Situated on Lake
Nippissing,an extensive and beauti;
ful sheet of water, 40 mniles long
and fen miles wide, with Islands
and calm shores ; small steamers
ply on the lake and the district is
much frequented by sportsman,
North Bay is a Railway Divisional
point, with repair shops, and has•
very good hotels,
Prom Lake Nippissing the scene
from the Railway is somewhat
wild 'and broken with frequent
lakes and rapid streams ; fishing
and shooting are excellent, so we
are informed. The distance from
Morth Bay to Winnipeg is 950
miles. This takes in New Ontario,
Algoma District. This stretch is as
mass of rocks and Mountains and
some scrubs ; some of the Rocky
Mountains, we are told, exttnd in
height several thousand feet, and
it is a miracle to every passenger
how the C. P. R. could get through
those rocks. It is worth one's
while to travel this road to see the
sights. It took us two days and
two nights to travel! this road.
Here and there you will strike a
small station, which contains a side
track and an operator, to guide the
trains and sometimes a saw -mill
and asmall store owned by the
