The statement that the Dominion gov ornament have granted acres of land per mile to in the construction of the Manitoba southwestern tie Manito by Northwestern railways will be pleas ant news to Tho people of Manitoba. The construction of these lines is very necessary to the Prosperity of Tho whole will be especially of great Benefit to Winnipeg. The southwestern Runa from Winnipeg in a South Westerly direction to a Point Midway Between tie 99th 100th parallels. It then goes directly West at a distance of some ten Miles from the Boundary parallel with it nearly to the 104th parallel. There is also a projected Branch from a Point to the eastward of the 103rd parallel to a Lettina. whole length of the Branch southwestern including would to us. Of this 550 Miles. Of this 51 Miles from Winnipeg to Maryland is now running. Tho southwestern will run through the Turtle Mountain District also run through a Groat Deal of land on Tho Souris River will be a most valuable feeder to the Canadian Pacific. The Manitoba Northwestern railway is to extend from Portage la Prairie to Linco Arthur on Tho North Saskatchewan distance of some 500 Miles. Of this Lino from Portage la Prairie to Minnedosa 78 Miles in length is completed running. This railway will pass through an Admir Able country open up to settlement a vat tract of valuable land. There can not be a doubt that with such a land subsidy As acres a mile that sufficient Money to build the line can to easily obtained in England where the North West is now in High favor. Powers so extensive As were Desir Able to the architect or the Council but he was satisfied that the architect had Power to go on Complete the building charge the Cost to the contractor or to the sureties. The question of liens on the building was one that the Council ought not to con Sider until the building was completed. Then when the final Oati mate was Given those who had liens would receive their pay in full or such a proportion As the fifteen per cent held Back would give. Aid. Brown asked the architect Why no estimate had been Given for three weeks. Or. A. Barber answered that on account of the Long spell of wet weather very Little work had been done very Little material furnished. To had been away to rat Portage Whan the last Esti mate was Given his brother had Given an estimate a thousand dollars too great so that the amount Duesing would not have been More than a few Hundred dollars which was principally for labor.

Dewar had made arrange ments with Tho Bank for advances to be repaid the estimates which by the contract should be passed every two weeks. This had Boon done up to three weeks ago. Advances to the amount of had gone into Tho building Ancl he asked that this should be paid to the Bank from the fifteen per cent held Back. Aid. S. Mcdonald said he would like to help the Bank but to held that until the work was finished the Council could not Deal with the creditors. Aid. Carrothers considered that it would be an injustice to other creditors sureties to do As was proposed. Aldermen Wilson k. N. L. Me Donald were of Tho same opinion. Aldermen Ham Mulvey wished that the parties affected would come to an understanding among themselves allow or. Dowar to go on with the con tract. Aid. Mulvey moved that the Resolution to amended so As to direct the architects to proceed under instructions from the Market committee. Or. A. Ponton was heard in reference to his offer. He would Complete the building for the balance of Tho contract Price discharge All liens now registered. Aldermen Wilson s. Mcdonald moved that the offer of or. Ponton be accepted the work to to carried on under the same architects provided the Security be satisfactory to the Council. Aldermen Mccreary Ham moved that before any further action be taken the Market committee meet with the Dif Ferent sureties the contractors As Many of the creditors As possible Endeavor if possible to arrange matters in a manner satisfactory to Tho said sure tics.

The profession however express them selves hopeful that the court will Aee its Way Clear to give another week after the present to term work As they say Tho number of rules awaiting disposal very materially affects their business.
