What puzzles us is why the city should pay any of the cost. The dâ€" tracks are a nuisance and so are the trains using them. Why should the Joe that presently has to sit or stand and wait until the train gets through cluttering up the main street, contribute towards a continuation of the offence.

Indeed, his tombstone on a high hill overlooking the Peace bears the inscription "He was everyman‘s friend and never locked his cabin door‘. Henry Fuller Davis, a trader and gold prospector, came to Canada in 1858 from the California goldfields to join the Fraser River gold rush. He earned the nickname of "Twelveâ€"foot Davis" when, in the Cariboo, he discovered two claims in excess of regulation width and mined $15,000 in gold from the twelveâ€"foot space between them. He was one of the discoverers of the Omingc: goldfield in Noithern B.C. Later he became a tr_ag'g: and his friendliness to pioneers, travellers and Ind'iang was 1egspd: What was a Red River Cart? Used by the Metis the Red River area on their buffalo hunts, and for freighting é?ds between Fort Garry and St. Paul and between Fort rry and Edmonton, the Red River cart was a two wheeled vehicle constructed entirely of wood, except that shagâ€"aâ€"nappi (rawhide) was sometimes used as a tire to bind the wheels Made prinâ€" cipally of the ordinary hardwoods to be found on the prairie riversides, the axles were usually of maple with the hubs of elm. The deeply dished wheels were normally 5 or 6 feet high, with 8 to 12 spokes, and gave to the vehicle a considerable degree of stability. The two shafts were attached to the axle,gnd a platform, surrounded by a light railing, was mounted on the shafts and between the wheels. In use, the draft animal, sither a pony or o0x, was harnessed between the shafts, and loads of 500 to 1,000 pounds were normally hauled on the cart. The vehicle was light, strong, easily repaired and was capable of being used over rough, trackless or even soft grounq. of UCilig Uustd Over POurIii, LELGLRICSS UR CVEUIL SUNY BAUUIIU® For river crossings, the wheels could be dismounted, and strapped to the underside of the platform, thereby providing a buoyant and fairly navigable raft. When used in cart trains, the carts were organized into "brigades?, of 4 to 6 carts, managed by one driver. During the hunt, the carts, placed around the camp, served as a defence. Although they were used extensively, in hunting, for carrying the buffalo meat, their use extended to such serâ€" vice as freighting and even farm work. They originated most likely, from French Quebec and the Highlands of Scotland, and there is mention of their use as far back as 1801.
