THE C. P. R.‘ Con‘ipany has :it last. filed plans regarding their proposed route through the town by which they intend giving a level crossing at the foot of Gamfraxa Street hill. The Council is not willing to accept terms and give the desired right of way, and now ask the Railway Commission to decide the matter. The town desires acut to be made higher up the hill with an overhead driveway and this is the nature of the demand they make. Work has so far progressed that it seems improbable that the un- derground course will be granted, but the chances are that a measure of pro- tection will be afforded not previously agreed to. The level crossing at the foot of such a bill has in it a consider- able element of danger and while it is true that trains will not be passing back and forth at very close intervals the present is the best time to secure a crossingtbat will be tolerably safe for all time to come.
