The management of the Canadian Pacific Railway are desirous that th« representative business and public men of the West Kootenay District, should have an early opportunity of seeing the district opened «p by the construction of their Crow’s Nest Pass Line, and with this end in view have authorized the local officers of the Company in this district to extend to members of the press a cordial invitation to join them on a trip through the East Kootenay. This invitation has also been extended to the Mayors and Councils of Nelson, Roesland, Kaslo and Sandon, also to delegations from the Boards of Trade from those points. It is the intention to leave Nelson on the nitial trip of the new steel steamer “Moyie” connecting at Kootenay landing with passenger train, and running as far as Fernie, the center of the large coal fields, giving the guests an opportunity of looking over the mining districts of Moyie, Craabrook and Steele; and through the courtesy of the manager of the Crow** Nest Coal Co an opportunity will be given to look through the coal mines and the coke ovens. At this time it is difficult to fix a date when the road will be ready to take care of a party, but it will be somewhere about the first week in December.
