"Canadian Pacific Telegraph Company"
Announced 01 August 1900

	Messrs. James Kent and B S Jenkins of the Canadian Pacific
	Telegraph Company, have recently completed their tour inspection
	covering the entire CPR circuit from the east to the west
	coast.  A careful examination of the telegraph system in
	British Columbia especailly throughout the Kootenay and along
	to Victoria were of special concern and interest.  
	
	Mr Kent notes that, "When this season's work is finished,
	we will have a new line between Laggan and Fort William. We have
	been doing so many miles each year, and now we have completed that
	distance, besides accomplishing several hundred miles of renewals
	on the Pacific Division.  Additional wire facilities to the extent
	of one-thousand miles will be provided this year alone."
