Excerpt from An Open Letter to the Shareholders of the Canadian Pacific Railway Co: Being an Answer to the Circular Letter of Sir George Stephen, President of the Company, Addressed to the Shareholders, on the Subject of the Disallowance, by the Dominion Government; 1st October, 1887 This interpretation of the provisions of the contract was gener 'ally accepted by parliament and by the country. It was reiterated hy'the Ministerial press the length and breadth of the Dominion, and not a single voice - although Sir George Stephen and his as sociates were in hearing when these statements were made - was raised in contradiction. And, on the faith of these assurances, the contract was ratified and became law. It must, therefore be plain to every unprejudiced mind that the C. P. R. Co: could not have expected a monopoly in Manitoba. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
