If \"litigation ia the bane of\nthe mining industry,\" tbe course to\nbe pursued should be the oue tbat\nwill avoid it. We could uot far a\nmoment suppose that the quickest\nway to \"knook out\" the Canadian\nPaoifio Railway would be by challenging them to a combat which\nwould inevitably end iu a long litigation.\nTho discussions whioh were earned ou when the proposition was\nmade to British Columbia to becomo\na member of the Confederation,\ncould have much light thrown upon\nthem at tbe present day, as to whether it has been a matter of profit or\nloss to the Proviuse.
