buildiug mslerisi, as bad been found in
"Uiei huiburu, lo uin persunul know
ledgu. This wuulil give the mstsrlsl s
commerclsl value. -
Further ihun thu above, the dreilg-
iug of the .-iiu I, would lend In Improve tho current by giving il a direct
flow through llie passages ip lhe
bridge. Hs understood thai sums oh
jeetion hSS been UlSllo to the locution
of the central pier, in the lalcsl plaus
siiliiniiieil, it being beld thst this pier
il ulnm n lucnled ip ihe deepest portion
of the uliiiiiiiul. In reply tq this, tbere
wss prububly a resson for the pier lielng plsced In tbst particular position
by ths engineers, il might be because
of the nature of the foundation or
■omo other reason. The dredging of
tbe channel would provide a means oi
overcoming the objections made, while
leaving the pier iu the location seteet
ail. ■ 'upturn I'vim" here drew s rough
sketch of Ihe shore line ou both sides
of |be lulet In illustrate ln« meaning.
Iliicuislug the question of tbe height
of Ihu Auor of Ihe bridge above bigb
wgter, Captain i'ylius explained lhal he
bad mentioned 71) feet in bit letter as
beiug the extreme ouliido limit, which
should be named. Instances iu Which
this height would actually be demand
Sd wuuld lie rare. Waterfront property lo tbe outer harbor was ileniued
to become so valuable tbat sll tbe
sawmills would doubtless be situated
shove Secoud Nsrrows. Ths hssvier
porliou uf the Iridic passing through
tha bridge would therefore consist of
tugi wilb lows of logi and of pleasure
craft. Ships would alio bave to psss
through fur loading purpuses anil if I
large dryduik were built sbuvc the
narrows, oueen linen might slso re
quire lo puss through lite bridge, liul
these laltes wore inilam-ei iu whicn
Ibe iwiug might lo be uied, while ss
for lbs other elssnei a height qf Afty
feel ubove bigb wsler would be ample,
for sll prsclicsi purposes.
Ai for Ibe width of Ipe span which
•bould be built Captain I'ybus roil
.'rule,I lbe position luken in Ids letter, le tbe effect Ibst s span of V.in
f. et would bs quite sufficient, but if
thst were increased 10 iM feel, sucb s
width would lie ample fur all purpuses.
The proposition lo build a permanent
obstruction in thc way of a dam acroai
lhe harbor at thai puinl, Captain Py-
but charucleri.eil aa ridiculous. Ile
■lid uot think Ihsl II was worthy terious
eomideraliun.
In concluding tbe interview Captain
Pybus reverted again Iq tbe greal bcuc
fiti whieb migbt lie secured from a lie
Vigatlou standpoint by menus uf dredging and expreued Ihe opinion Ibal Ibe

which cannot he evaded, in favor of a
sane iiiiun.le and reasonable demands
upun tlie part of ali parties relative to

We are pleased tu lie privileged lo
. reproduce tuduy, frum the columns of
a eoiilumpurary, a letter frum Hie pen
uf Henry Pybus, Cummauder H. N. II.,

itlitain iu all Ihu important heritors of
the wurld. As master of one of tbs

The ul un,iinni- and questions by
means nf which Captain I'ylioi deals
with the prupused dam al Hereiul Nar
rims show clearly that as u navigator
he is altogether uppiited tu a dam ami
considers a bridge the proper structure
fur tiie location.
In tbe secund paragraph of his letter
Ciplaiu Pybus slinws the extravagant
i.m of the demand! which Ihe Vuu
euuver Hliipniailers1 Association hsi
sought lu impose wilh reference tu Ihe
bridge. Ilis pusitiuu with reference tu
ilic length uf the spau which will be
required wili be tinted with interesl
The execl 1.-..I.I- uf Ihe letter iu deel

"The beam uf Ihc largest ship afloat
dues uul exceed ninety feet, so thai
u passage uf 160 feet is ample. Two
hundred end fifty feel is the width uf

whu could uut take a ship thruugh a

Viewed mure closely, however, it is u

Whuu an actual cumputation is made,
it will hu found thst the cost to tbs

very small. The by law as it stands al
present reads lu the effect thai a ruad

twenty fuur feel where a full road at
liiumine is inil'l.-, A strip af laud
iiienii four feel iii width would require lo lie eighteen hundred ami Ilf
leen foet in length lo contain oue acre:
This would Include thirty six fifty fool

cost of such clearing is twu hundred

Iho owner uf acreage will nut he at
ail eiuliarassiug in lhc firsl instance
and even such as it is, it will ultimately
lie paid liy the purchaser of lols iu the
subdivision iu a slightly iucressed pri
for the propurly which lie purchases,
thus mora than reimbursing Ihe acre
age owner lur his outlay
There can scarcely be room fur twu
opinions as tu the advantages that
woui.l accrue lo the municipality frum
the fact that lliruughuut the entire

inlu lull, a nm,lua.i would invariably
be fuuml, giving ready acceu tucicli
Int. This fact, uf ilself would go far
lo favorably impress intending pur

would greatly facilitate properly sales.
I'nder existing conditions the growth

cuiustaucei are frequently such that
it is unl wilhin the altilily uf lite
council to grant prompt compliance
however deiiroui Ihey may he uf do

ups which is probably vexaliuui lu Ihc
intending builder ami which retards
Ihe incoming uf actual settlers, if in

seeker building elsewhere. I'nder the
propused by-law uu situation iuch us

chaser wuubl liud access lo bii lul

The by law wuubl further relieve thc

the advantage* of which, frum au ad

The chief objection thui far urged
agaiusl lhe passing of lhe by law li tu
Ihe effect thai ai ratepayers, preient
owners of acreage tracts have helped
lo pay for Ibe roadi ihu. far romlrucl

elpenw, thui lliu riminuling in favor
ol those owuen who have lerured roads
previous lo lbe passing of tbe by law.
Tbe theoretical rurreelaees of this con

this situation, however, it is urged Ibat
tbe roads thus far constructed through

sold in North Vancouver.
