As} a council for the benefit of the} Soo and the Lakehead cities, and} as an additional attempt to per-| suade the powers that be of the | great importance of Algoma and} Thunder Bay districts, it may be all to the good, but as something | that is to include the whole of Northern Ontario, it looks very one-sided, Although the reports claim that something like 90 per cent. of the North Country was represented, one fails to find the name of a single delegate from any town or municipality on the T. & N.O. with the exception of North Bay.

These, however, were opposed on the ground that the town would be removed, to a large extent, from the main road. Another proposal involved diver- sion of the road at First Street, alongside the railway tracks and across the slimes toward mileage 1 i eee | 04, while yet another Schad fe "itself offfand make the road.

There was more to the same tune, ex- hortation to "brush? off the old war-horse," etc., that no doubt made his speech sound hearten- ing to the people of Algoma. The formation of the "General Council" was carried out with great enthusiasm, many prophe- cies were made as to the great benefit that was to come from the organization and delegates were no doubt satisfied that a great day's work had been done. The T. & N. O. district, however, will apparently remain outside the old for the present and will probably be able to struggle a- long, as it has in the past.

All of these ideas, however, were finally rejected in favor of the original scheme, and the bridge was built at the crossing. It is probable some progress would have been made on the work earlier, but for the fact thar the town of Cobalt felt itself un- able to participate, financially, in the operations. Successive town councils discussed the matter, but always negotiations were halted when the question of paying for} the bridge came up. Eventually, | however, Col. Malcolm Lang, while M.P. for the riding, induced ; Hon. Frank Oliver, who had charge of grade crossing investi- gations for the Board of Railway Commissioners, to look over the site. He did so, was impressed with the danger, persuaded the powers that be to provide the maximum grant of 40 per cent. and when the Northern Develop- ment Branch and the T. & N. O. agreed to share the balance equal- ly, the financial problem _ was solved. The history of the undertaking would not bé completé without a reference to the persistent cam- paign carried on in the press in connection with the dangers at the crossing. Some years ago, the then editor of the weekly at that time published in Cobalt ran in each issue fgr one summer an editorial dealing with the situa- tion and urging the erection of a bridge as the only means of re- moving the menace considered to exist there.
