LANDS SYSTEM 1869 TO. 1889. - NABRATIVE. ‘ The history of the surveys performed under the Dominion Lands System begins | in the year 1869, shortly after the territory of Rupert’s Land was acquired by the Dominion of Canada by. purchase of the rights of the Hadson’s Bay Company. Previous to that date, the only’ surveys, other than explorations, which had been effected in the territory purchased, covered a narrow belt of lots fronting on the Red and Assiniboine Rivers, snd extending a sbort distance up and down these streams from their junction at Fort Garry. These surveys had been performed by Messrs. Sabine and Goulet, under instructions from the Hudson’s Bay Company, with the object of defining the boundaries of holdings granted by that company to settlers living along these rivers. : As it was thought that a large portion of the newly acqtired territory was good agricultural land, well adapted for successful farming operations, and it being expected that a large influx of immigrants would follow the transfer of the country to:the Dominion, it was realized that one of the first duties of the Government was to devise and adopt a comprehensive scheme or system upon which to conduct the surveys of the country, and to proceed with the survey of such portions as were likely to be required for immediate settlement. Tothe Department of Public Works was relegated this important duty, and on the 10th July, 1869, instructions were issued by the Honourable the Minister of Public Works to Lieut.-Col. J. 8. Dennis, Pro- vincial Land Surveyor, instructing him to proceed to the Red River district to — examine the country in the vicinity of Fort Garry, and to suggest a scheme or system upon which to base the surveys which were to be undertaken. He. was accredited to the Crown Lands Departments both in Canada and the United States, with the object of procuring all the information and advice possiblé to aid him in drawing up the scheme or system for adoption by the Government. 7 ‘Arriving at Fort Garry in August of that year, the country bordering the Red and Assiniboine Rivers and vicinity was examined, and after giving due weight to the information received from those competent to advise on the enbject, a system for the survey of the country first into townships and then into farms was drawn up; and, with illustrating sketches, was forwarded to the Government under date the oBth of August, 1869, The proposed system was spprovod, and was brought into ‘ force by an Oder in Council dated the 23rd of eptember, 1869, the: Order in Council being based upon a memorandum from the Hon, Wm. McDougall, the then Minister of Public Works, who forwarded the proposed system and recommended its adoption. . . . The system adopted contained many points of difference from that now in force, and being of interest from an historical standpoint, it is here given in extenso im ‘S PpROPOSED METHOD FOR THE SURVEY OF THE PUBLIC LANDS IN THE NORTH-WEST TERRITORIES. 1, stem to be rectangular ; all townships to be east and west or north and south. “ 5. The ‘townships to number northerly from the 49th parallel of latitude and the ranges of townships to number east and west from a given meridian, this meridian to be drawn from the 49th parallel at 3 point say ten miles west of Pembina, and to be called the Winnipeg Meridian. _ “3.

In devising the system, the views of those well versed in surveying operations, both in Canada and the United Statgs, were made use of, and the following facts were offered in support of the scheme proposed :— In.comparing it with the American system then in force in most of the western - states and territories, it was noted thatin the latter there was no provision made for public roads, the area required for this purpose being subsequently taken by expropriation from out of the net area acquired by the settlers. ; It was also suggested that the townships in the American system were unneces-— sarily small, and it was. pointed out that in an open or prairie country, the facilities for communication are greatly in excess of those in a broken or wooded country, and the larger townships were advocated in’ consequence of the economy which would result in the administration of municipal affairs, The numbering of the townships north from the international boundary line and the numbering of the ranges east’ and west from a principal meridian, was recommended on account of its simplicity and the facility which it afforded for easy description in disposing of the Crown lands. , .o - > In the interval between the date of sending the proposed system and the receipt of further instructions as to its adoption or otherwise by the Government, it was decided to carry on the survey of the Winnipeg or Principal Meridian referred to in thescheme submitted. In doing this, an approval of the scheme was anticipated which might not have been obtained, but no doubt it was realized that any scheme adopted would, in its main features, resemble the one proposed, and would authorize the survey of the country into rectangular townships. The line which it was_proposed to run would serve as a base or initial meridian for any system decided upon, and in consequence of the absence of surveys of any kind from which a survey under a defined system could be begun, some line had to be adopted and surveyed as a starting point. In the absenco of information on the subject, it is impossible to say why the particular location in which the Winnipeg Meridien was run was adopted, but no é * doubt, Judging from the information which -we now have regarding the country traversed by this meridian, it was so located as to avoid the belt of timber along the. Red River, and at the same time not too far west of thé river to be readily available for the dependent surveys which it was proposed to effect in the vicinity“of Fort Garry. It would seem that the intention was, pending the receipt of instructions regarding the adoption of the system proposed, to survey and mark the Winnipeg Meridian from the boundary line as far north as Townsbip 11 in the proposed system, and then to project the line between Townships 6 and 7 easterly, and to subdivide a _-amalLiract_in the vicinity of Oak Point. This was done, and it may be referred to as the first survey performed under authority of the Dominion Government in the territory of Rupert’s Land. , we In the fall of 1869, the outbreak known as the Red River troubles occurred, and _ this put an end ‘to the surveys for the time being. During the-year 1870, nothing in the way of surveys was undertaken, but the subject of the future surveys, and the system to be followed, received considerable attention, and towards the end of the year steps were taken to amend the system authorized by the Order in Council of September, 1869, The Government was no doubt largely influenced in the decision to alter the system adopted, by the views of the Hon. (now Sir) Adams Archibald, the Lieutenant Governor of the newly created Province of Manitoba, The views of the Lieutenant Governor were very fully set forth in a despatch to the Secretary of State, under date the 20th September, 1870. By - - permission, the following notes taken from this despatch are here given in explana- tion of the very material change which was shortly to be made in the system authorized. . It was pointed out by the Lieutenant Governor that, while the general principle of the survey of thé country into rectangular townships was a good one, at the same time he considered the townships too large; it was also noted that for a very long 2 [PART vr] / (55 Victoria. Sessional Papers (No. 13.) A. 1892 time the American Government, had--been-carrying on their land surveys under a system which provided for townships six miles square and containing 36 sections of 640 acres each, and that these sections were again subdivided into quarter sections of 160 acres each. Attention was drawn to the fact that many states of the Union had been laid out and peopled under thissystem, and, further, it was urged that, as the State of Minnesota and the Territory of Dakota, which would be surveyed’ under this system, adjoined our territories, and the two systems would be con- tinuous, there were strong reasons for making our system somewhat analogous to theirs. Again, the American system being known all over the world to the emigrant classes, and a lot of 160 acres being the acknowledged extent of an ‘emigrant’s requirements for farm purposes, any change from that system, it was claimed, would act disadvantageously to our country. In reference to the 5 per cent of the acreage of each let set aside for roads under the system authorized, the Lieutenant Governor urged that this system would act unfairly, for -while one man’s farm might be badly cut up by a road, his neighbour, subject nominally to the same charges, might escape altogether, and he therefore recommended a’fixed allowance for roads as being the fairest method of providing for public highways. In January, 1871, Col. Dennis submitted a memorandum in reference to the pro- posed change in the system in force; he recommended that “ the’ system of survey- % be altered, retaining the rectangular principle, but making the'townships six miles “square, with road allowance on all section and township lines of 1°50 chains wide.” This memorandum contained some additional recommendations regarding th&bound- aries of the newly constituted Provi anitoba, and in reference to the disposal of certain lands within that province, but these latter recommendations had no - bearing on the survey proper. : Ste . On the 7th of March, 1871, Col. Dennis appointed Surveyor General of Dominion Lands, and during the same month the tontrol and administration of the Dominion Lands was transferred to the Department of the Secretary of State, and a branch of that department called the “ Dominion Lands Bran¢h,” was created. We now come to what may be termed the starting point pf the great work of surveying the vast country which had been acquired by the’ Dominion, and since this date the work has gone steadily on each year. The first important point requiring consideration and settlement, was the question af the proposed change in the system ; the recommendations of the Lieutenant Governor and Col. Dennis séem to have met with favourable consideration, for we: find that in April, 1871, on the recommendation of the Hon. the Secretary of State, an Ordet in Council, was passed, bringing the new system into force, and on, the Ist of ! May, of the same year,amanual of surveys was issued by the Surveyor General, explanatgry of the system which had been adopted, and for the guidance of the deputy surveyors, as they were then called, who were to be employed in surveying Dominion nds, This manual re-" mained in force for some years, and as under its provisions} a large portion of the country was surveyed, and as it was the basis for the new or amended manuals which have since been issued, its main features will be briefly referred to; it provided :— ‘<(1.) The public lands in Manitoba and the North-West square in are to be laid off in rect- angular townships, containing thirty-six sections of one mile square jin each, together with road allowances ietween all townships and sections, of one chain and fifty links in width. | . “(2.) The townships, therefore, will, subject to deficiency or surp from converging or diverg- ing meridians, as the case may be, measure on each side from centre to/centre of the road allowances bounding the same, four hundred and eighty-nine chains. ; ——- ° . “(3.) The townships will number in regular order northerly from the international boundary, or forty-ninth parallel of latitude, and will lie in ranges, which will be mbered, in Manitoba, east and west from a certain principal meridian, run in the year 1869 and.styled the ‘ Wipnipeg Meridian, which starts from the said forty-ninth parallel at a point ten milegr thereabouts, westerly from bina. , aan b a Pome: (4.) The said forty-ninth parallel or international boundary is tHoltitst base, or that for town- . ships one aud two; the second base will be between townships four and five ; the third between townships eight and nine; the fourth between townships twelve and thirteen ; the fifth between townships sixteen and seventeen, and so on northerly in regular succession. . “© (§.} The.covrection lines, or those upon which will be allowed the ‘jog resulting from want - of parallelism of ‘meridians, will be as follows, that is to suy : on the line between townships two and [part vz] . 3 11 + > i} 55 Victoria. .° Sessional Papers (No. 13.) © -: “A. 1892° three, on that between six and seven, on that between ten and eleven, and so-on.

On these lines, at the time of such survey, all township, section and quarter section corners are to be marked, which corners are to govern respectively in the subsequent subdivision of the block. “©(10.)

These posts or monuments, as ar invariable rule (with the exception above referred to) are to be placed in the west limit of the road allowance on north and south lines, and inthe south. limit of the road allowances on east and west lines, and in all cases will fix and govern the position of the boundary corners between the two ad- joining townships, sections or quarter sections on the opposite side of the road #llowance. - . “(11.)

The manual contained detailed instructions for the guidance of deputy surveyors engaged in surveying Dominion Lands under the above system, and also-much gen- eral information regarding the surveys. The system and the manner of effecting the surveys under it are so exhaustively treated of further on in this report that it is not necessary to speak further on this point here. 4 } With the issue of the manual the survey of Dominion Lands was actively begun, and it is propsed, in the following pages to give a short account of their prosecution ‘since that date. | Se - For convenience of reference, and as the most ready method of writing of the surveys since performed, each season’s surveys are treated of by themselves, begin- ning with those of the season of 1869. SEASON OF 1869. The inception of the surveys during the early part of this year has already been referred to, The report regarding the system which it was proposed to follow in - carrying them on was forwarded from Fort Garry about the end of Angust, and im- mediately afterwards the actual field work was begun at Pembina by a series of observations for latitude to determine the position of the 49th parallel. These observations placed the boundary between the United States and the Ter- ritories about 200 feet further north than that determined some years, previously by General Pope of the United States army. _ Beginning from the point established by these observations, the 49th parallel . was produced for a distance of ten miles west of the Red River and from there the survey of the Winnipeg or Principal Meridian was begun. ~, ; In establishing this portion of the 49th parallel it was found that the line sur- veyed from General Pope’s post by American surveyors crossed the line run from the post established by Colonel Dennis, and that posts and mounds placed to mark Sections in townships south of the boundary line stood-on the north side of the latter ine, ot . r . . This fact was reported to the Government and their attention was drawn tothe necessity for a joint commission to settle the position of the international boundary west of the Lake of the Woods, . o_o By 28th September the Principal Meridian was completed up to the Assiniboine River, being marked with posts and mounds in avcordance with the system submit- 4 [parr vr]. 4 : 55 Victoria. _ Sessional Papers (No. :13.) ~ A. 1892 ted. From this point the further production of the meridian was assigned to M. Hart, P.LS., and a second party under the charge ‘of Major Webb, P.L.S., was organized and started on the survey of the base line between Townships 6 and 7 from the’meridian easterly to Oak Point. : # Colonel Dennis then returned to Winnipeg and commenced the compilation ofa © map of that portion of the country between the Lake of the Woods and Fort Ellice and from the boundary line north for one hundred and twenty-five miles, -It was proposed to show on this map the projected townships in accordance with the system approved, and the manner in which the convergence of. meridians, &c., was to be allowed for. The work on this map, when nearly completed, had to be abandoned on the 30th of October owing to the political troubles which then broke out. _,Mr, Hart had continued the Principal Meridian up to Township 11 and then tarned west on the base betwean Townships 10 aud 11 with the object of projecting it west as far as Portage la Prairie, However, after running this line a*short dis- tance west, he struck Shoal Lake. . . . He then returned to the meridian and, beginning at the lino between Townships 9 aye 10, produced if, west across Range 1, then turning north he produced the meri- dian between Ranges 1 and 2 to Shoal Lake, and returning to the base he continued its production west, and had finished the greater part of Range 2when the outbreak occurred. The party was then withdrawn from this point and spent the remainder of the? season in running the exterior lines of the townships lying between the Principal ’ Meridian and the Red River, north of Township 8. Major Webb had begun the production of the base line between Townships 6 and % from the Principal Meridian east, and had nearly reached the Red River when he was stopped on the 11th of October by a party of the discontented half-breeds; his _ party was, therefore, withdrawn and spent the remainder of the season in running ~ the exterior township lines north of the Assiniboine River and east of the Principal Meridian, and in the survey of the lots of the settlement belt along the Assiniboine. The field work was finally stopped on the Ist of December, the surveyors and several of the members of their parties being enrolled among those’ who were - organized aa a military force with’ which an attempt was to be made to restore order in the country. (8 On the’Iith of December this force was disbanded, and an effort was made to continue the surveys; this, however, failed, .and nothing further was done.

On the 20th of May of this year, the Act setting apart a portion of the terri- tory of Rupert’s Land as the Proyince of Manitoba was assented to, but, owing to the diaturbed state of affairs in that province, nothing in the way of surveys was undertaken during this year. _ Season oF 1871. , . The adoption of an amended system of surveys and the appointment of the Surveyor General in the early part of this year have already been referred to, ; With the formation of the Dominion Lands Branch of the Department of the Secretary of State, and the issue of the Manual of Surveys, the survey into town- ships and sections of the immense territory was begun, iy 0 Instructions were issued to twenty-one deputy surveyors who were to be eraployed on the season’s surveys; of these, fifteen wore to be engaged’ in surveying block outlines and effecting subdivision surveys. The remaining six carried on sur- veys in the settlement belt along the Red and Assiniboine Rivers: - .” The number of surveyors employed, and the extensive field included in: the ‘ gurveys, rendered the appointment of an inspector necessary. _ Mr. Lindsay Russell, who had visited the Red River country as far back as 1858~59, was offered this position, and in July became Inspector of Surveys. He had charge of the surveys in the field, and during the season visited many of the parties employed. an . oo All the surveys duriug this season were performed under contract at so much 4 mile, The schodule of rates paid under these contracts was as follows :— SCHEDULE OF RATES.

SEASON oF 1872. . The surveys during this season showed congiderable expansion, as compared with those of the previous year. a ; ; Forty-six surveyors, im addition to’ the Inspector, Mr, Lindsay Russell, and Messrs. Milner Hart and A. H, Whitcher, who had been appointed Assistant Inspec- tors, were enfployed. . . ' The necessary working parties for this staff involved a force of about 400 men, with 100 horses and carts for transport service. This gave many of the newly- arriving immigrants remunerative employment, and afforded them an opportunity '- to acquire, in the course of the surveys, a knowledge of the country valuable to them, when deciding ‘as to the locality in which they would settle. . ms . To insure that these numerous survey parties should incur no loss of time through difficulty of obtaining sufficient and wholosome supplies, large quantities of provisions consisting of bacon, biscuit, dried fruit, compressed vegetables, &c:, were procured and forwarded to Manitoba; and there furnished the survéyora at cost price. This, of coyrse, entailed a considerable-amount of labour on the part of those ooking after the surveys, but it was hoped that the progress of business in Manitoba would soon reach such limits that sufficient supplies could be furnished by private enterprise at reasonable cost, a The surveyors employed this year were divided as follows :—~Hight were engaged in running block outlines ; twenty-three carried on township subdivision surveys; five were employed in the surveys of the sottlement belt parishes, and five were ‘engaged in making explorations at different points in advance of the surveys, - The reserves granted to the Hudson’s Bay Company at certain of their posts under-the deed of surrender required survey. Instructions were issued to Mr. W.S. Gore, P.LS. (now Assistant Commissioner of Lands and Works of British Columbia), to earry out this work, and’ he was also instracted to collect all information possible in travelling from one post to the next. This work waa expected to occupy Mr, . Gore for two years. , .

Upon their representations the Inspector reported as follows :—~ “ The contract system suited well the conditions of character of country and facilities for trans- port that existed at the outset of most of the block surveys, and in anticipation of which conditions the prices allowed were fixed ; but the country to be ‘surveyed proved not to be nearly as uniforn: in character as was expected, much less of it than had been estimated was found to-be open prairie.

' , : Obstacles to progress, in the shape of extensive marshes, thick woods, windfalls, &c., occurred, pre- senting varying degrees of difficulfy and delay, to arrange prices corresponding to the different shades of which would be impracticable. Some surveyors who were fortunate enotigh to fallin’ good country, realized fair remuneration from their contracts, but the’ majority would not, unless’ some consideration beyond the terms of’ their contract’ wére allowed for special difficulties encountered. This might at first sight seem simple to remedy, by allowing bigher rites per mile for fines run in certain kinds of country; but the difficulty of so doing justly by both parties to the contract, lay the impossibility of estimating beforehand for an unknown tract of country, to what extent obstacles to survey existed, and precisely what increase of cost they entailed. Only by fixing a rate per mile, d it be ensured to the . surveyor that he would in all cases make his fair daily pay. An average price though fgir to the. surveyors as a body, might prove exceedingly unjust to the individual. The cases of the block and the suldivision surveyors are widely different. The former, besides beingthe pioneer of the latter, . extend over distances in some cases reaching a hundred milgs and more, with consequent vicissitudes jn the survey of the line and transport of supplies, that the varying chagacter of the country traversed would produce. For example, one surveyor in the course of his sedson’s work had ut 30 miles of road through the woods, to enable his carts to follow him with his supplies. Anott®, not very remote from him, worked all summer on open plain, where his horses hardly ever required to deviate from the line he was running. Where in the matter of transport, delay had cost the first ' surveyor weeks of his whole party’s pay and food, they had not cost the second an hour. The con- tract price to each of these was not the same, but it was difficult, until the work was done, and actual -eost known, to assign a difference in price per mile run that would exactly meet the circumstances. c ‘Their case.thus set forth by. the block outline surveyors is fairly stated. I would add _ thereto, in favour of their being remunerated by daily pay and allowances, that under the contract system, adverse circumstances, such as bad weather, difficult country, &c., act as a pressure on the surveyor to slight his work in his endeavour to make up, by hurrying through it, forost time. It sometimes should before proceed- ing further, check his positions.y astronomical observation, thatyhe ept, with his whole party idle, waiting days for the requisite clear weather. He is here, by dead loss of his disbursements for pay and expenses of a large and costly party, and of his own time, tempted to disregard his ‘instructions, to proceed with his line and té assume that it'is{ correct, thus involving that’ very liability to error against. which the rule was intended to guard. ‘As the Sigbdivision of a township is” confined to a distance each way of six miles, and its character is by the previously made. block “survey, to a great extent known, the contract system can be successfully applied to subdivision surveys.” rs employed, aided largely no doubt by the Tospector’s report, seem\o hayetiiid the desiredl result, for the rule was adopted that all future block and outliné” survey were to be performed under daily pay and allowances, and that subdivision sutyeys only should be made under contract. _ This The representationa of the surrey¢ a 3 . Tule has remained in force ever sinfe, and.there iq every reason to suppose that the ¥ work has been much more carefully performed than it ‘would have been if effected under contract. « _. ate A map showing the surveys completed in Manitoba and thé"North-West Terri- -. tories-was issued with the Surveyor General’s report of this year. It is introduced here, being of interest as the first map issued to show the results .of the surveys of Dominion Lands, and also the first official map of the Province of Manitoba. In April an Act was passed called the “Dominion Lands Act” in which the mauner of administering the lands in Manitoba and the North-West Territories was dealt with, and the system of survey explained. The--Act also provided for the formation of a Board of Examiners who were to éxamine candidates for admission to practice as deputy surveyors, and provided for the admission to practice of sur- veyors from the different provinces. —_ : ‘ . With the passing of this Act the persons employed in surveying Dominion Lands, were given the distinctive title of deputy surveyor. This title has since been Ged, and numerous alterations have been made in the law regarding the quali- fications necessary to be admitted to practice. —_ In the autumn of this year a joint British and American Commission com-, menced the survey of the international boundary between the North-West Terri- tories and the United States, from the uorth-west angle of the Lake of the Woods to the summit of the Rocky Mountains, ; 8.

Th¢ representations of the Inspector regarding the payment of block surveyors by the day instead of by contract having: been favourably considered, we find that during this year all the surveyors, except those employed in effecting’. subdivision surveys, were paid by the day, and the~éystem of payment, inaugurated at this time, has remained in force ever since.. - In May the Bill creating the Department of the Interior was assented to, and on _ the 30th of June the management and control of Dominion Lands was transferred from the Department of the Sccretary of State to the newly constituted Department "of the Interior.

The survey in detail of all the holdings in the several parishes fronting on the Red and Assiniboine Rivers was completed: . . Tk The decision arrived at in September, 1873, conceding the land covered by the hay and common privilege in the “outer two miles” to the owners of front lots in certain of the parishes fronting on the Red and Assiniboine Rivers, necessitated the survey of the “outer two miles” to correspond with the river front lots, A force of surveyors, was detailed for this work, under the direction of Mr. , Whitcher, one of the inspectors of surveys, and the larger part of the field opera- tions was.completed before’ the close of the-season. - . The lands reserved to the Hudson’s Bay Company, under the deed, ofsurrender, at several posts in the Lac la Plnie district were surveyed by Mr. D.L.S. Miles, | During this season the first surveys of Indian reserves wére undertaken. On this work six surveyors were engaged, and reserves were laid out at several points in Manitoba and the North-West Territories. << i . SPECIAL SURVEY. In February an Ordet in Council was passed authorizing a special survey of bascs and meridians threugh the North-West Territories, and extending to Peace River. This was the most important surveying work undertaken by the Govern- ment since the acquisition of the territory, and a short description of its objects, and of the work effected during the season, will be of interest. - oR, The objects of this survey were :— — . 1. To establish o practical ground-work for the extension of township surveys at any point along the line-of the proposed route for the Canadian Pacific Railway, thus tending by syatematic settlement to the development of the country, 2. To contribute towards the construction. of the railway by facilitating the _ location of the land grant along the Tine. ' 3. To obtain a knowledge of the character and resources in the way of soil, tim- ber and minerals,:as also ‘of the flora and fauna, of the territories covered by the. survey. ; . mo . "To the above may. be added the possibility that data ‘of value would -be obtained for estimating the length of a degree of the meridian in the region covered. This will be understood when it is said that the work was intended to extend over some twelve degrees of latitude, and that all possible precision was to be aimed at in earrying on the work, o ‘ oo a . wi \ ' fpart vi] 9 ar 55 Victoria. | Sessional Papers (No. 13.) ~~ A. 1892 - With this view, in addition to laying down the actual lines of the meridians and bases throughout the country, which was to be performed by a separate party under the supervision of the chief of the speciul survey, the position of these bases and meridians was to be definitely checked from time to time by means of a continuous triangulation to be carried on simaltaneously over the most favourable belt of country that could be found for that purpose. . This triangulation was to be extended northerly from the 49th parallel, as “fixed by the International Boundary Commission, and westerly from the Principal ~ Meridian, in Manitoba, to the Mackenzie River near the outlet of Lake Athabasca. This important survey was placed in charge of Lindsay Russell, Esq., Assistant Surveyor General, and early in the year a move towards initiating the work was made by ordering some of the instruments needed. Owing however to delay. in receiving these the inception of the field work was somewhat delayed; however work was begun towards the end of July, and the following extract from the report of the Assistant Surveyor General upon the work accomplished this season will serve to show the beginning made in this important work :— “* Towards the end of July a portion of our instrumental outfit arrived at Ottawa, sufficient to enable me to instruct Mr. A. L. Russell, D.L.S., my first assistant, to commence the field work by connecting, by careful survey, the iron boundary at the intersection of the Principal or Winnipe Meridian and the fourth base line, with the astronomic station at Pembina, whose longitude ha been telegraphically determined. - ; . - “ This he did in the following manner: Starting from the fourth base he made a check survey of the Winnipeg Meridian, with careful double chaining’ and repeated azimuthal observations throughout, down to the 49th parallel or international houndary. ‘Thence he measured along that parallel eastward, by thrice chaining each mile, the distance “between ‘the Winnipeg Meridian and the astronomic station above-mentioned. Careful comparison of the steel chains used by him, with standard, was made at the end of every mile. : . «On the 29th August, I left Ottawa with the remainder of the party, and sufficient instrumental outfit to do the principal part of the work of triangulation westward from Mr. A. L.‘Rusaell’s point, the iron boundary before-mentioned. : “* We were delayed on our journey to Manitoba by the necessity of going down the Red River by steamer; on account of our instruments, chronometers, base apparatus, &c., that could not go by stage waggons. . us ‘ ‘« These ateamers are governed by circumstances as to time of sailing, and have not atated days of departure. Wofgftifortunately arrived at such time as to lose altogether four days waiting for a steamer. This, with a slow passage down at low water, prevented our fairly getting to work at out base of triangulation until 18th September. So ., .C& few days after this Mr, A. L, Russell and bis division of the party joined'me, Having com- pleted the part of the survey already deseribed, [instructed him to proceed westward to the vicinity of the- White Mud River, there to carry on a section of the triangulation. * The leveller, Mr. H. B. Smith, C.E., had hitherto—besides making some useful connections of “the water levels below the rapids at St. Andrews on the Red River, the mouth of the Assiniboine, and Tithe Red River at Pembina—been engaged in getting a profile along the lines surveyed by Mr. A. | . Russell, - . : ‘* Considering that the country, over which our triangulation would for the rest of the current . season extend, had been fully examined and levelled by the engineers of the Pacific Railway survey, I judged it desirable to turn our levelling party to more profitable account than that of verifying facts already well obtained. I therefore instructed him, instead of carrying his line of levels west- ward, in our track, to take them up the course of the River Assiniboine, and at the same time to make such observations of the nature of the stream, and the obstructions to its navigation, as would enable him to report upon'its value for that purpose, and approximately the ameliorations it might require. “Takao directed him to make an examination, and obtain a profile between the River ‘Assini- boine and the south end of Lake Manitoba, by the way of Long Lake, sounding the latter, and thence following the lowest intervening ground he could find, with a view to possible future connection by canal of the navigation of Lake Manitobs with that of the Assiniboine. ’ ‘ . Mr. Hermon, P.L.S8., had, a previous season, reported to me that during the course of a survey in the vicinity he had seen the possibility of such a connection from the existence of ground of a low ‘level throughout, between Long Lake and Lake Manitoba, exceedingly favourable to a canalling pro- ject. oo . ~*Mr, Hermon’s judgment proved quite correct. Mr. Smith found a practicable line for the con- nection of navigation, and the relative level of the waters to he such as to admit of -turtiing those of Lake Manitoba into the Assiniboine, to regulate ite depth, and for the creation of. water power, both objects of great importance in the locality concerned, : . oo ‘ __ ‘Returning to the main occupation of the survey—the carrying of a series of triangles from the Winnipeg Meridian westward~-—this was continued by both sections of the party until winter had set. in and the weather became sufficiently severe to interfere with accurate observation of the angles. 10 oe ; [parr vi] wily . t . ; .. 1! - ie 55 Victoria. % Sessional Papers (No. 13.) | A 1892 _ 6 On the. 10th November, the work immediately under my own charge had reached Mr. A. L. Russell’s section, and closed with it, J then moved the whole party down to the vicinity of Sturgeon Creek, and, availing myself of the finer days, ran the triangulation from the Winnipeg Meridian into Winnipeg, tying in its geographical position by stations on Fort Garry, St. John’s Cathedral, and the iron tornship boundary in rear of the town. . . ‘‘ This closed our work of this nature for the winter, making the total distance covered by the survey, from the astronomic station at Pembina to the western termination of A. L. Russell’s tri- angulation, and including that between the Meridian and Fort Garry, a hundred and sixty miles. “ Having received, on my return to Winnipeg, your telegraphic instructions that the farce of the party waa to be employed during winter, under direction of Mr. A. L. Russell, in laying out meridians * and bases for townships east of the Lake of the Woods and along Rainy River, I proceeded to make the necessary arrangements forplacing supplies in depots in these localities. * “ This was effected with some difficulty ; no one was passing over the Luke of the Woods road east of its first thirty miles; therefore the road had to be broken along it, and over the ice on the Lake of thé Woods, the rest of the 150 miles that supplies were drawn. ‘The absence of any forage the entire way was also unfavourable. . : ‘* Food for the party for the winter having been thus placed in the centre of their work, and having provide them with an outfit of camp equipage suited for the season—snow-shoes, dogs and dog sleds for transport—I despatched them on the 8th December to the Lake of the Woods, starting myself the same day on my return to Ottawa. . . “Having thus given an ontline of the manner in which the party was occupied in the field, I shall proceed to give some details of the method of survey, the processes and instruments employed. “The 49th parallel of latitude, as established by the International Boundary Commission, bein the datum line across the continent to which our system of bases and meridians has té be referre throughout, it was necessary that the present survey should be connected with some fixed point upon it. “Tr was also requisite for the accurate laying down of the geographic position of important places and features of the country to be traversed, that the absolute longitude of the commencement of the survey should be obtained. | . ‘*For the purposes of the British section of the International Boundary Commission, and those of the Dominion Lands Surveys, in 1872, Capt. Anderson, R.E., Chief Astronomer to the British Commissior, at Pembina, in co-operation with myself at Chicago, determined, by the electro-tele- graphic method, the difference of longitude between the observatory at Chicago, and his aatronomic station at the former place. This, with the known relative position of Chicago and Greenwich, will ive, by reference to the Pembina station, the necessary connection of all our future surveys with sreenwich, , “Hence the adoption of the astronomic station on the 49th parallel at Pembina as the point of departure of the present survey. “The accuracy of position, relatively to the 49th parallel, of our bases, can ‘always be checked by carefully observed astronomical latitudes, therefore the actual measurement on meridians, north- ing and southing, does not require to be made with as minute precision as that along the bases in the east and west direction, on which nq direct astronomic observation gives a check,of any value. “ Until telegraph lines are constructed, throughout the country traversed, the accuracy of dif- ferences of longitude will depend solely on that of survey measurement. 4 For this reason it was necessary to employ the method of triangulation in carrying the survey - westward, On the check survey of the Winnipeg Meridian carefujfdouble chaining was deemed sul- ficient. The interval of. ten miles between the meridian and Pembina station was not triangulated, the. circumstances being so favourable to, accurate chaining, and the distance so short, that thrice measurement by that means was considered sufficiently accurate’; {the probable error being in a small ‘ratid to that of the absolute longitude of the point of referencd. ; “T have reason to believe, from the close inter-agreement of the different measures of each mile, that the longitude’of the, Winnipeg Meridian from the Pembina astronomic station is determined to a couple of feet, or as closely 2s measurement with the ordinary chain will admit. The evenness‘of groind—perfectly level prairie-—was in the utmost degree favourable to nceuracy. * Ag the computation of the triangles and of the astronomic observations is yet in progress, am! - unable to show for the whole of the work, by closing results, the comparative accuracy of the trian- ‘ gulation, but the following differences were obtained for the portion calculated. . ‘From ‘the initial base, by a chain of twenty-eight tridngles, whose sides would average about two miles, to the first base of verification, the length of the latter by calculation differed from that obtained ‘by direct measurement an inch and a half, or as the base of verification was about 69 - chains long, a closing error of about ator: . 7 “The double measures of these bases with our base apparatus had compared as follows :—dif- . ference of first and second measurement of initial pase, three-tefiths of an inch. . « The azimuth of the base of verification mentioned, deduced from the initial base through one side of the above chain of triangles, differed from that obtained by the other side four seconds of arc. In the next series, of twenty-two triangles, the azimuths similarly. carried forward from.the begin- ning to a common side at the end of the chain differed a second and a quarter. . ‘'In measuring horizontal an, les on the prairies, the cause of error most beyond control, is that _ of unsteadiness of image produced by irregular refraction. ° This occurs to so great an extent as to produce frequently an apparent lateral displacement, of the station under observation, of many seconds. ; [parr vi] », oo it . : ' 55 Victoria. _ Sessional Papers -(No. 13.) A. 1892 “In such cases there ig no other resource than to wait for more favourable atmospheric condi- tions. Hence a good deal of lost time in observing. For two or three weeks in the fall our progress was similarly hindered by large prairie fires in our vicinity, their smoke making it impossible to see any distance. . ‘ ie It is a question whether the difficulty of lateral refraction might not be considerably lessened by observing from the top of a framed staging at a height of 20 or 30 feet from the ground. Some experiments shall be made at the outset of next season’s work, to ascertain whether the advantage in this direction, and in the increased range of sight to be gained on prairie by very moderate elevation of the observer, would warrant the cost of transport of portable framework for the purpose. “The station signals used are similar to jointed flagstaffs, and are capped by bright tin cones, with brush below ; they are stayed by three rope guys, an iron pin in the foot of the mast being step- . ped into the,station mark, an oak post with central hole in head driven down till even with surface of the ground. Lo . , “ The angles are taken with 10-inch theodolites, by which five seconds can be read. To obtain greater precision, by taking the mean of ‘many observations, a number of series of direction readings is taken at eachrsiétion. Ct, . . ‘A series consists of the successive readings, from that on the station adopted us zero, round on each station concerned, through 360 degrees eek to the zero station, The difference between th firat and the last direction reading ‘On this station being the closing eripr of that series. . '. To eliminate the instrnmental errors of collimation, inclination pf horizontal to vertical axis, and to decrease those arising from errors in graduation and from play i clamps and tangent screws, these series are arranged as follows, premising by way of explanation : : “ That ‘face right ’ and ‘face left? are positions of the verniers anditelescope axis differing 180 degrees, or a semi-revolution in azimuth. , . \ ‘That ‘forward motion’ indicates that the instrument is revolved* in azimuth with a motion from left to right, in the same direction as the hands of a watch. : _ “ Backward motion the reverse. ‘ “* That for both motions, in bringing the observed object in coincidence with telescope wires, the tangent screw shall always be turned so that the motion shall continue onward ih same direction. _“ That positions 1, 2, 3 mean respectively, that the position of the. fixed or graduated limb of “the instrument is so shifted for each that if A be the line of graduation directed to the zeyo stationin _ position 1, then will the lines A+ 120, A+240, comes successively opposite that station in positions 2 and 3. : . : “ The arrangement is then — ‘Ist series, position 1, face right, forward motion. «2nd do do do backward do - “(3rd do do face left forward do & “4th do do do backward do - ‘** And so on for each of the two other positions, giving twelve series in all, and for each position eight vernier readings ; therefore, 24 for any one direction, and 48 for any angle. - ‘“* The azimuths of the sides of the triangles are checked at intervals by referring them to circum- polar stars, the method of observation being similar to that already stated for horizontal angles of the triangulation with the addition of noting level readings and chronometer times. ‘ eo “ A reference mark is used, consisting of 'a box about 9 inches cube, firmly mounted on a stand, and placed aj-such a distance as to be seen clearly through the telescope without altering its stellar focus. The fronting face of the box has in it a vertical slit of about a quarter of an inch opening ; inside is a amp, and between it and the slit isa ground or white painted glass pane, preventing irradiation\gnd producing sharp definition of the edges of the slit to ensure precision when bisecting it with the telescope wire. “ The scheme for azimuthal observations stands thus : “POSITION 1. “PACE RIGHT. “* Forward motion, ————-—mark, ——-— -—-——-, level reading, circle reading. “ “e star, chronometer time, “ . ** Backward motion, _—_———-star, . “ “ “f 4c ba mark, ————__-_ ——_——, oe 6 *€ PACE LEFT. : : ** Forward motion,——--~——mark, —_— -_—, level reading, circle reading. . « ‘ star, chronometer time, “ fo ** Backward niotion,— ———star, “ * “ ce ‘s . mark, . - - ——, rad , ‘* And so on for each of the other two positions. ; ‘When taking the measures of a horizontal angle, the result of reversing the instrument, the inclinstion of its vertical axis being considered constant, is to reduce the angle to its projection on a plane passing through the instrument. at right angles to its vertical axis of rotation, and there is a further correction to reduce it to its projection on the plane of the horizon. This is obtained by level readings. ° oe 12 © Epart vr} 55 Victoria. Sessional Papers (No. 13.) A. 1892 _. ‘In prairie country the stations to be observed are usually 0 nearly on the same level that, with ordinary care in keeping the rotation axis of the instrument vertical, this correction is inappre- ciable, Thelevel readings require to be noted only when stations differ much in elevation, and that - there is risk of change of inclination, or when one of the objects isa star, as in the scheme for azimuthal observations above. ; ‘* These azimuths are also checked by comparison with a meridian mark established by observing transits of circumpolar and southern stars. ‘ To obtain the latitude of astronomic stations the following methods are employed : “Ist. Zenith distances of Polaris and other standard polar stars are observed in reversed posi- tions of the altazimuth, with the chronometer times of observation ; also, an equal number of measures. of circum-meridian zenith distances of standard southern stars, the mean of whose altitudes corres-_ ~~ ponds to that of the polar stars. : . ** 2nd. The latitude is deduced from the observed interval of time between the east and “west transits of stars across the prime vertical. an ‘© 3rd. Direct measurement, by-means of a micrometer screw, of the differences of the meridian zenith distance of pairs of stars north and south of the zenith, Talcott’s method. / ‘* The special construction of the altazimuth used admitting of the equally careful application of all these methods, they become in a measure, from the difference of principle or procedure involved in each, independent checks on one another. {fo .. “« Method No. 3 has the advantages over the others of rapidity of observation, simplicity of con- struction of instrament it requires, ans freedom from the errors involved in graduation, or change of form of graduated circles ; but, in the present condition of star catalogues, has thefdrawback, that to - comply with the restriction, of nearly equal altitudes of the north and south starfin each pair—the cases of such coincidence occurring rarely among the fewer standard (best determined) stars, it is pecessary to have recourse to the mere numerous class, those whose Positions are less accurately nown., ; ‘In the first method, by incréasing the number of points at which the easurihg circle is read, i.e., the number of reading microscopes—and by being careful to select stars’so that the averages of altitudes north and south shall not differ widely, the errors arising from undetected irregularities of graduation and from change of form can be rendered inappreciable. In this method, the condition of equality of altitude north and south is so modified that there is no difficulty in finding for any latitude suitable standard stars. ‘ . Q ‘The second method is of the three the least convenient of application in the fidid.; but is specially valuable as a check on either of the other two, on account of the, to some extent, indepen- dent data from which by it the latitude is deduced. It can be more successfully carried out in an observatory, where the stability of the instrument used can be better insured, where the gmall changes from fixity of position occur more slowly and are more uniformly proportionate to the intervals of time during which they take place. Satisfactory results can, however, be obtained in the field, with a properly constructed instrutient, carefully placed and used in such wise as not to depend for too long an interval,’ without reference to stars, on its stability in azimuth. ; ~ “* Common to all three methods, and entering directly in the results of all to its full amount, is any error arising from irregularity of action of levels, usually caused by alteration of curvature of the tubes due to their exposure, in course of observations, to changes of temperature. Attention to cer- tain points in mounting them, and enveloping them, as much as their use will permit in non-conduct- ing material, tend to prevent those rapid changes which have worst effect. _ ; “ Ror the first method, the following is the process of observation :— ; oo ‘« The altazimuth having been carefully adjusted and levelled, so that the outstanding instru- ~ mental deviations shall enter as exceedingly small factors, the telescopé and vertical circle are firmly clamped at, approximately, the altitude of the polar star to be observed. ; j “Phe azimuthal. motion is also clamped, and the star having been brought into a suitable . position jn the telescope field, the four circle microscopes are read and noted, also the three levels of the microscope bearer. A series of several measures is then made between the star and the middle fixed horizontal wire of the diaphragm, by means of the movable wire of the telescope micrometer, the chronometer time being noted with each measure ; then the readings of circle levels and micro- sdepes are repeated in order the reverse of that at the first readings. i “The mean hetween the readings before observing and those last taken is the adopted circle reading, to which is referred each one of the intervening series of micrometric measures of ‘the incre- : ith distance. ‘ ~ ment? oe eee is then reversed, and the same Course pursued, with the difference that a double set of micrometric measures and three readings of microscopes and levels are made. * _ ; “Then the instrument is returned to original position and first series repeated, giving finally an equal number of zenith distances in the two positions—face right and face left. _ “ For the accnvate interpolation of the changes of refraction throughout the observations, the thermometric temperature and height of barometer are read at begianing and end of each position. To eliminate the effect of errors in the adopted declinations or right ascensions of the cireumpolar . stars, the observations on them are repeated when they are at diametrically opposed points -their di ath. ' ‘ . . of hele dine stars are observed in a similar mamner, near and on the meridian, in reversed positions of the instrament, with the slight difference that—the rapidity of their, motion requiring change of azimuth of the telescope to keep them in its field of view during the series of micrometric ; {Part VI] 13 55 Victoria.

The telescope level is instantly read and noted) and next the micrometer reading. ‘ **The instrument is then turned 180 degrees in azimuth and same process repeated with the other star of the pair. . : . : ‘ “ As the instrument is very closely placed in the plane of the meridian, the chronometer time of bisection is noted only when the observer has failed to make it exactly at transit, and that it therefore requires reduction to the meridian. ! 4 ‘‘ When the stars used have been observed a number of times at standard’ observatories, results from them, on account of the greater certainty of their declination, have more than usual weight ; it then becomes worth while to repeat the micrometric measures on them, noting the chronometer times as in the method of circum-meridian zehith distances ; but this seldom happens with the available pairs of stars, generally of lesser magnitude, among which class the fortuitous concurrence of equality of altitude and shortness of interval between transit of each, with certainty of position is rare. ‘‘ The second method, that of obtaining the latitude by observing the transit of stars across the east and west verticals, is carried out as follows :— . . ‘* From the catalogues are selected two groups of stars whose declinations are about a degree less than the latitude, and 80 disposed that the stars of each come closely one after another, and with such interval between the groups as will admit of their being observed in the following manner :— ‘*The meridian reading of the azimuth circle of the instrument having been checked by reference to the previously established meridian mark, its upper or movable part is clamped at the reading which places the central wire of its telescope in the plane of the prime vertical, then the chronometer times of the transits of the stars of the first group over,the several wires are noted for their passage across the east vertical. The axis level is carefully read for each star—it remains on the axis during the course of the observations. : ‘* Reference to the meridian mark is again made in case of any smal) azimuthal change of position of the stand. The instrument is reversed; the ends of the telescope axis being revolved through exactly 180 degrees of azimuth, and again clamped in the plane of the prime vertical, then the times of transit of the first group of stars over the west vertical are similarly recorded. This gives for that group of stars a series of observations in each of the positions—face north and face south—of ¢ instyument. . . . > <‘ In this latter position the east transits of the second group of stars are observed, and then by versal back to the origina] face north position, the west transits of the same group. . . ‘This proceeding eliminates from the result of these observations any effect of collifnation or wire interval. . ’ “* Meteorological observations were not made, for the reason that our outfit for that purpose was not complete at time of starting to the field ; further it was not judged of any profit to make partial observations, as the work would lie for the short part of the current season comparatively near to one of the fully equipped government meteorological stations—connected with the Magnetic Observ- atory at Toronto—by which full returvs would be made.” . f The requirements of the survey made it necessary to hove’ some base measur- ing apparatus that would occupy an intermediate posifion, in point of relative ~ accuracy and time consumed in working, between the rapid but rough measurements-: of the ordinary chain, and the base apparatus usually,émployed in primary triangu- lations—which latter, although giving fine results, is‘complicated and requires much time in its application. y '. Aspecial base measuring apparatus was,designed by Mr. Russell for use on this survey, The following concise description of the apparatus is extracted from the Surveyor General’s report :— . ‘Mr. Russell’s apparatus consists of well seasoned deal rods successively connected with each other by metal fittings working on the contact principle, the particular application of which principle is as follows :—Each joint consists of an accurately turned hard metal cylinder with its axis horizontal and transverse to the line of measurement; on this cylinder, which is at the end of one rod, rests the rectangular inverted V, or claw of metal fitting, at the end of the next rod. The line bisecting the rectangular claw will always pass through the centre pf the supporting cylinder at any relative ld [PABT. VI] ~ ~-standard coefficients of expansion for deal. It is hoped that circumstances may admit of employing a ay Qo 55 Victoria... -' Sessional: Papers (No. 13.) . A. 1892 ; inclination of the two rods, the distances, therefore, from dot to dot at the centres of these cylinders, with the temperature not considered—are constant for all inclinations of the rods. The objectionable feature of any meagnring apparatus: working on the contact principle is that of wear of touching surfaces and conseqfient alteration of length. This is toa considerable degree obviated, in the pre- sent arrangement, by a provision for turning the cylinder round, at equal intervals of use, to distri- bute the wear and ensure, as nearly as possible, its occurring symmetrically. It is evident that the cylinder might be decreased in size until nearly cut through, and yet, if its section continued to be a true circle, the distance from central dot to central dot remain thesame. / . ‘* Effecta of temperature are approximately taken into account by adopting the mean of several the more correct method of determining experimentally the expansions for both temperature and . ‘humidity of the particular rods used, and applying corresponding corrections to measures made with them, ! «Tn an interesting report on deal measuring rods lately written by the Warden of the Standards of England, he shows that experiments made with them-in measuring ant important base in the Ordnance Trigonometric Survey of Britain cannot be deemed so conclusive as was then thought against their use. That, in the case in question, their expansion from humidity was, in a distance of 5 miles, about 4 inches only,.instead of about 2 feet as first deduced. ‘‘Tn using these rods on the survey now in question. their length will be frequently checked by referring them to a standard steel bar by means of a micrometric comparator, having due regard to atinospheric conditions at time of making such comparisons. : ' The results obtained during the last season by-this apparatus are such as to justify the belief that one mile ina day, over reasonably level country, may be measured with remarkable accuracy. . © For instance, two bases. were measured. one of 60 chains, the other, a base of verification, of 66 chains-25 links. The difference of a double meagurement, if each case, was in the former, three- tenths, and in the latter, two-tenths of an inch.” e va te SEAsON oF 1875. iS é “During this season thirty townships were subdivided, and 1,020 miles of block lines were run and marked.

The follogfing extract fron the report of the Assistant Surveyor General regarding the se 3 operations will illustrate the results:secured : “ ynock SURVEY EAST OF THE LAKE OF THE WOODS. ‘“ en the block outlines in the Province of Manitoba, already run, and the Lake‘of the Woods there as an interval of unsurveyed ground ; therefore, in. projecting the meridians and bases east of that lake, to insure conformity of position with the existing surveys to westward, it was necessary to produce the 49th parailel, as established by the International Boundary Commission, across the lake, to serve a8 a tie and basis of projection for all blocks to the eastward. — - “The course of the parallel crossed 30 to 40 miles of open lake, This, at a season of the year ‘when the thermometer was somettines registered there below 40°, entailed the expense of arrange: ments for dragging campiny fuel, and further the inaccuracy that is likely to attend instrumenta R : Jrarr vi]. - aS er, a The town plot called “ Selkirk,” situate on the east side of the Red River, at the - y ‘ employe \ 55 Victoria.

It therefore seemed preferable to et the position of the parallel on tlie eastern shore bythe more indirect method of a diagonal tie-line rom the before-mentioned commission’s point at the north-west angle, which line- would traverse a part of the lake fairly sheltered by occasional wooded islands furnishing fuel. . «In the computation of the triangle this involved, the differences of latitude and longitude were calculated by that known as: ‘ Gauas’s second method,’ and frequent and close azimuthal verification obtained for the tie-line which was twice measured ; it is therefore presumed that the intersection of the 49th parallel with the eastern shore of the Lake of the Woods was established with very little if any less accuracy than by direct production of the line, the probable difference being ouly in the greater effect of any possible departure, in that region, of the figure of the earth from that assumed, and in the greater length of survey by the detour. —__- : : - ‘+ The instruments for an astronomic check on the latitude were not in the field, even were they available the season would have made any dependence on their results precarious. a “CTRIANGULATION FROM WESPBOURNE TO 102° MERIDIAN. ‘From Westbourne to the Little Saskatchewan, the best route for the purpose that could be found is sufficiently wooded to impede very seriously a triangulation survey in a flat country. While in this section but slow progress was made. . _ 4 - “ Westward of the Little Saskatchewan it became more open; the work advanced more rapidly, but still subject, though in a lesser degree, to the retarding difficulty that has existed throughout the survey of getting triangular points in a country of go even a surface. “' Lateral refraction was, as in the first season’s, work, a constant cause of loss of time, and in- jurious to precision. To it, principally, are to be attributed all the larger closing errors that appear in the reduction of the triangles, and the resulting differences between computed and measured lengths of sides. . ‘ “From the first or Winnipeg Meridian to that of the 102 west lengitude, six bases were measured at a8 nearly equal intervals as circumstances permitted. The average difference between computed and measured bases of verification was a little less than yadyy of their length. ‘“‘ The base-measuring apparatus proved this season, as last, fairly equal to the work expected of it. Though necessarily much inferior in precision to the more complex and delicate apparatus usually q on extensive national trigonometric surveys, it can Ye used with greater rapidity and gives sufficiently accurate results for triangulation of second order ; the average departure from mean of different measures of same distance being about yyhaz of the length.” . , Season or 1876, The general depression in commercial affaira, and the consequent falling off in immigration, added to the grasshopper plague which had occurred in Manitoba during the previous three years, all had their effect upon the surveying operations, which during this season were on a somewhat limited scale. ; Exclusive of the staff of the special survey, eighteen surveyors were employed. Their work was divided as follows :—Five were engaged on block surveys, six on township subdivision, five in surveying [hdidn reserves, one on settlement belt surveys andone on survey of main highway. Tn his réport for this year, the Surveyor General gives a statement regarding the total acreage of lands surveyed up to the end of this year’s survey season, together with a statement of the cost per acre, and a comparison between this cost and that for Ontario and Quebec. — This statement is given here, being of considerable interest : - ‘Since the establishment of the Dominion Land Office, in March, 1871, to the. date of this report, 10,574,915 acres have been surveyed info townships, sections and quarter sections, and 341,666 acres, comprising all the old settled parishes on the Red and Assiniboine Rivers, have been surveyed and mapped. : : ‘To the above has to be added the work of the special survey—as alao the laying out of many Indian reserves,a number of exploration surveys, and, finally, the subdivision of large tracts of timbered land into wood lots for settlers. : - 7 Tt is proposed to give the acreage cost, to the present date, of the Dominion Land Suryeys, in connection with which it will only be proper to mention the principal features of the system. «The township surveys involve the preliminary steps of laying out the territory into blocks of twelve miles square, or four townships, enclosed between meridians and base or correction lines. _ “The running out of these blocks is performed by day-work of a-surveyor and party ; and where subsequently deemed expedient, such blocks are divided into townships, which in turn are subdivided into sections and qyarter sections—-such subdivision being performed by contract.at mile- age rates previously approved by Order in Council. . . : “The cost of block outlines.surveyed to the present time averages $36.83 per mile. ~ 16 [part vi] ° 55 Victoria, Sessional Papers (No. 13.) A. 1892 “The cost per acre of subdividing the blocks of four townships into sections and quarter-sections has been 2°91 cents ; adding the cost of the block lines to the above acreage rates makes the total cost of all the township lands surveyed to date to be 3-83 cents per acre, “The survey of the settled lands in the parishes on the Red'and Assiniboine Rivers has been more expensive, having cost 27,8, cents per ucre. : “This, however, cannot'be considered an extravagant price, when it is remembered that an immense amount of work was involved in surveying and mapping the lands in the several parishes, showing all the holdings with the exactness required to admit of their being described in letters atent. “t Adding the expenditure for settlement belt surveys to that for subdividing township lands, we obtain the average cost for all farm lands surveyed to this date 4°57 cents per acre. ** Let us compare the township survey rates proper, i. e., 3°83 cents, with the relative cost of township surveys in Quebec and Ontario, . . “* It may be premised that, previous to the union of Upper and Lower Canada, in 1841, the sur- veys in the respective provinces were performed with the ordinary surveyor’s compass, the lines being run by the magnetic needle, and were, therefore, subject to gross errors, arising from the effect of - local attraction upon the needle ; also from surveyors not ascertaining the variation of the latter when making their surveys ; and, further, no check lines were drawn in any of these surveys previous - to the year 1829, the result of all which was that the lots of land were not of the form or area intended, the concession or ranges lines in some cases being so crooked as to reduce some of the lots to one- fourth of their intended area, and increase others proportionately, giving rise to subsequent endless law-suits and difficulties between owners of the adjoining lands. for, ‘Further, surveys made by the magnetic needle did not involve /the opening out of lines by. cutting down trees, etc., and surveyors could therefore draw their lines much more rapidly than by the astronomical method, which requires all obstacles to be cleared. i ; “« Since 1841 Crown Land surveys have been performed astronomically, and check lines have been run, thus ensuring accuracy in the form.and area of the lots op Seuyions. . , _“* In stating the average cost per acre of the earlier Crown Lan surveys in Upper and Lower Canada, the amount of work performed in surveying is not shown, ko that the rate cannot fairly be compared with the present rates. In the former, only one boundat of the lot, the front, was sar- veyed ; at present, all the four are drawn. Thus, in the old surveyg the running of one mile of line gave 800 acres ; now it gives only 160 acres. . . 7 ‘* The average cost of the Crown Lands surveyed in Upper and Bower Canada from 1841 to 1875 was 6,4, cents per acre; each mile bounding 200 acres. ‘©The Dominion Land township surveys, on the other hand, havi been made for 3°83 cents per acre, each mile bounding only 160 acres.” i’ SPECIAL SURVEY. — ; Tn accordance with the recommendation of the Assistant Surveyor General, the’ ’ triangulation, which was being carried on by this survey, was stopped at the 2nd initial meridian, the intention being to establish the additional initial meridians by: means of the electric telegraph line or by running standard meridians and parallels, To effect these objects the following disposition of the force of the survey was , eats A. L. Russell, D.LS., in charge of the main section of the party, was7~ instructed to proceed with the establishment of the meridians and parallels, and Mr. W.F. King, astronomical assistant, went to Battleford to co-operate with the chief at Winnipeg, in establishing the longitude by the interchange of telegraphic signals. However, the telegraph line between Fort Pelly and Winnipeg was never, throughout the summer, in sufficiently good order to admit of making through signals, and the attempt to establish the longitude of Battleford failed. . -~ > Mr, King devoted hia timo while waiting at Battleford to determining accurately the latitude of the place, and he also made a survey of the settlement and explora- » tion of the district. . . a The main section & the survey was first engaged in connecting the 5th base and initial moridian. Tbe meridian was thén measured and marked (it had the? van the previous fall) for a distance of about 81 miles north of the 5th base, Turning west from the initial meridian on the 8th base, the remainder of the season was spent in the survey of bases and meridians extending as far west as _ Fishing Lake. During the season about 180 miles of meridians and parallels were ' gurveyed and marked, observations for latitude were taken at a number of points, and considerable exploration was also completed by the staff of the main section, and a very valuable xeport on the capabilities of a large portion of the country west and i [PART VI os 17 +2 55 Victoria. Sessiorial Papers (No. 13.) A. 1892 ° south-west of Fort Pelly was submitted by Mr. A. L. Russell, in charge of this division of the survey. ; . SErason oF 1877, Comparatively few surveys were undertaken during this season, the surplus of township lands previously laid. out having rendered any farther immediate supply unnecessary. . Seventeen surveyors were engaged in field work, distributed as follows:—two in charge of divisions of the special survey; one in surveying roads; six in survey- ing. Indian reserves; five on subdivision surveys; and three in settlement belt or “outer two miles ” surveys, a The staff being small, only a limited amount of work was completed. Exclusive of the operations of the special survey and the parties engaged in road and settle- ment surveys, seven townships were subdivided and thirteen Indian reserves laid out. Te, . Very satisfactory progress was made in the work of the special survey, as will be seen by the following description of the season’s operations, The survey was divided into two sections, the eastern section being in charge of Mr. A. L. Russell, and the western section in charge of Mr. W. F. King. ‘The eastern section was engaged in extending the 102nd meridian (2nd initial meridian) northward to the located line of the Canadian Pacific Railway and tele- graph line, the intention being to use this point when establishing the longitudes by means of telegraphic signals, They then produced a system of base and meridian lines as far west asthe 106th meridian (the 3rd initial meridian), which was care- fully established and produced 72 miles north to the North Saskatchewan River, A portion of the 12th correction line was then run east from the meridian, and some meridians and outlines in the vicinity of Prince Albert settlement, and of the Indian settlement on the South Branch of the Saskatchewan River, and sdme of the trails in the vicinity were explored and ronghly traversed. This section of the survey surveyed and marked about 300 miles of line during the season, and also effected considerable exploration in the vicinity of the line run. When on their way home in the fall, Mr. Russell, accompanied by an Indian, made a vapid trip through the Carrot River district, and was thus able to report regarding what proved to be an excellent district. —_ ~ Oy . The western section of the survey preceeded to Edmonton, having yhile on the | way established the latitude of certain paints by,astronomical observation, They also -while en route provided-for the guidance of future travellers by marking the crossings ‘of the‘leading thoroughfares between Manitoba and Battleford by other important trails, with painted finger boards on posts erected at the several intersec- tions in question. . : “ae _ The intention was that Mr. King should make a surveyvof the settlements in the vicinity of Edmonton, and should establish and survey the 114th or 5th initial meridian, in connection with which it was hoped to employ the telegraph line in, interchanging signals as a means of determining the longitude. This, however, in common witb all other attempts to make any use of this worse than useless telegrapb line, proved a cogpplete failure, and the initial meridian was established by Mr. King by using the longitude of Edmonton as determined by the Canadian Pacific Railway survey. ‘ . . This section of.the survey wintered at Edmcnton, and during their stay there they completed the preliminary survey of several of the adjacent settlements. The results accomplished by this division are, however, more fully treated of further on. Under amendments to the Geological Survey Act, the Survey became a branch of the Department of the Interior during this season, and the Museum was moved from Montreal to Ottawa. , 18 [Part vi] 55 Victoria. Sessional Papers (No. 13.) A. 1892 .. SEAson oF 1878, Pe . . . as In his report of this year the Surveyor General said, speakiby-of surveys :— ‘In the Province of Manitoba and the territory adjoining, the labge area that had been, in previous years, laid out in townships and subdivided, has, so far, met thé principal needs of=progres-——~ Sive occupation. a “But various settlements springing up in remoter parts of the North-West Territory, it- has become necessary to provide for these by making \letached surveys of townships and-river frontage arm lots. . «« The special survey of standard meridian and parallels has been prosecuted for some seasons past, with a view of affording that connection with existing surveys by which this could be effected, and of insuring that townships so laid out, in advance of the extension of the general system, in localities widely apart, and remote from the main body of surveyed Dominion Lands, should be found to have been correctly placed in the position they should oceupy in that system when it isextended ~~ from Manitoba to British Columbia. “Oe ‘“‘ The survey in question also embraces the determination of the latitudes and longitudes of points throughout the territory, for the purposes of contributing to its correct cartography and as a check on the measured surveys. _ ' “The operations of the survey extend from the international boundary at West Lynne, on the Red River, following its valley and those of the Assiniboine and Saskatchewan Rivers, to a point about 15 miles west of Fort Edmonton, or nearly at the 115th meridian of west longitude from Green- wich, and approaching the base of the Rocky Mountains. “ Besides its purely surveying results, much information respecting the character of the country traversed has necessarily been obtained.” Including the staff of the special survey, twenty surveyors in all were employed - during this season. ; . In reference to work;they were divided as follows :— . Four in charge of sections of special survey. . Nine in surveying Indian reserves. \ Three in subdividing townships. One surveying boundaries of Manitoba. One surveying public highways in Manitoba. ‘One surveying parish of Ste. Agathe. One acting inspector of surveys. ; a ; The subdivision surveys covered only ten townships, which were all situated in the vicinity of Prince, Albert settlement. ‘ ; The survey of part of the boundary of the Province of Manitoba was completed and: properly marked. ' ; ; * Mhirteen Indian reserved were laid out in Treaties 2;3-and 4. ee A large amount of important work was accomplished by the four sections of the special survey, a short résumé of which is here given. Section 1 was, as it had been since the formation of the survey, under the charge of Mr, A. DL. Russell, D.L.8. The greater part of the season’s work consisted in preparing the way for subdivision surveys in the Prince Albert district, 133 miles of outlines being surveyed and marked. Inaddition to this considerable exploring was done by Mr. Russell in parts of the country which were as yet outside the surveys. Section 2 of the survey, which was more properly called the astronomical section, was under the charge of Mr. W.F, King, D.T.S, This division had, ag already | described, proceeded during the previous season to Edmonton for the purpose of establishing the longitude in co-operation with Mr. Lindsay Russell by means of the telegraph line, and to fix the position of and.survey the 114th or 5th initial meridian. ° : . On the way to Edmonton during 1877, Mr: King determined the latitude at several points, and also placed painted finger boards at the following points :— (1.) Néar Shoal Lake’ (Mounted Police station), to indicate the trail to Fort » Pell ad Swan River barracks, - aA %e) On the north side of the Qu’Appelle River, beyond Fort Ellice, to show the trail to Fort Pelly. oo ™ 3.)

In the valley“bf Eagle Creek, at the junction of the plain and river trails to Battleford. ; ; . After reaching Edmonton a careful series of observations for latitude were taken, after which the 14th base line was established by producing a meridian north from the observation point to the latitude of the base, and from the latter point a system of chords was run to the west for about 13 miles, and the 114th or 5th initial meridian established; the longitude of Edmonton, as fixed by the Canadian Pacific Railway survey, being used in the determination of the position of this meridian. A portion of the initial meridian was surveyed by Mr. King at this time. This section of the survey remained in winter quarters at Edmonton until - February, during which month a traverse of the Big Lake settlement was made. At the end of February, a further and last attempt-was made to determine the long- itude by interchanging telegraphic signals with Winnipeg,or Fort Pelly, but the attempt, owing to the wretched condition of the telegraph line, was a failure, ° From this date until May the party was engaged in exploratory and settlement surveys. On the 25th of May the party started for home, but shortly after leaving. Edmonton received instructions to return to Edmonton and complete the settlement surveys, After work in the Edmonton district was finished the party moved to Prince Albert, some members of the party proceeding down the river in a boat, and carrying the chronometers 80 as to effect a longitude tie. with the 3rd initial meridian at Prince Albert. - . — ; The remainder of the season was spent in surveying outlines near Prince Albert, the party reaching Winnipeg on the return journey in November, having been absent 18 months. ; . The 3rd section of the survey was under the charge of Mr. J. S, Dennis, jun., D.T.S., and was employed in establishing the 4th initial meridian, ‘This was accom- plished by producing the 10th and 11th bases westward from the 3rd to the 4th initial meridians. In doing this th latitude post which bad been previously estab- lished at Battleford by the astronomical section was tied in. The production of this line into Battleford proved that place to-be in error in jongitude, as shown by the—— Canadian Pacific Railway surveys, about eleven miles, Lita Section No. 4 of the survey was employed during the season under Mr, M. . Aldous, D.T.S,, in surveying the settlements of Prince Albert and St. Laurent. In the fall of this year one of the first important changes regarding the admi- nistration of the surveys was made. In November the Surveyor General, Col. Dennis, was promoted to the position of Deputy Minister of the Interior, and Mr. Lindsay Russell, the Assistant Surveyor General, became Surveyor General. _ . ° SEASON oF 1879. The surveying operations of the department were on asomewhat more extended scale during this season than they had been during the previous two or three years, Thirty-two sarveyors were employed. Of these twenty were engaged in the survey of outlines and subdivision of townships. Niné were employed in: surveying Indian reserves, and three in locating and surveying timber limits. A very considerable amount of work was completed, 51 townships being aubdi- vided, and 875 miles of outlines surveyed and marked. - ‘- 20 Teann vi] SN nee pe 55 Victoria, Sessional Papers (No. 13.) A, 1892 a . During the season the 5th initial meridian was established by a section of the | special survey, under charge of Mr, M. Aldous, D.T.S. He produced the 4th initial meridian north from the 11th base, the-point where it had been established during ‘the previous season, and then ran weston the 14th base and adjoining lines to the 5th initial ‘meridian, , . . . . The astronomical section of the special survey was, as in past seasons, under the charge of Mr: W. F. King, D.T.S. The season was spent in moving from point to point, and establishing the latitude carefully by astronomical observation. In this - way the following stations were established : No. 7. Near the north-east corner of section 25 township 35, range 17, west of 2nd initial meridian, ; , No. 8. Near north-east corner of section 52, township 46, range 20, west of 2nd initial meridian, . . No. 9. Near a post on the 10th base, 58} sections west of the 3rd initial meridian, . ; .y : No. 10. On the 11th base, near its intersection with the 4th initial meridian, _ No. 11. On the 14th base, about 64 sections west of the 4th initial meridian. . These observations were taken for the purpose of furnishing a check on the line surveys then in progress, and corrections were from time to time made in positions of posts on the initial meridians and intermediate base lines, to make then agree with the latitudes astronomically determined. oO ae mo, Besides the determination of the latitudes at the above stdtions, the season’s work included a number of micrometer and track surveys made for’ the purpose of better locating the main topographical features of the country. The results of many - of these track surveys, where they were taken along the main trails, were scheduled, Siving distances from point to point, and subsequently proved a great convenience to persons travelling on these trails. te The explorations which were carried on in addition to the general surveys added very much to the stock of information reyarding the topographical’and climatic features of the country, and cach year’s operations proved that previously. held - estimates of the quantity of arable land in many parts of the Territories were very much below the mark. ; ; In fact it was only after the surveying operations had extended west to the Rocky Mountains, and north to the Saskatchewan River that the full extent of the large areas fit for cultivation and“grazing was fully realized. These surveys and explorations exploded the idea, at that time so prevalent, that large portions of the Territories were barren wastes or deserts, and may be said to have settled the ques- tion of the adaptability of the larger part,.of, the country as a field for successful farming operations. ‘ ae ; In his report of this year the Surveyor Genoral referred to proposed changes in the manner of surveying block outlines, and with the object of reducing, if possible, the average cost per acre of the survey of lands. It was suggested that the square to be surveyed by block surveyors should include sixteen townships, instead of four as’ had up to this time been the rule. . _ This proposal was sanctioned and preliminary steps were taken to carry it into ‘effect during the next season., With this in view a memorandum was prepared setting forth in detail the modifications of. the process of survey previously employed, necessary to effect the new system, and otherwise instructing surveyors as to the method to be pursued. Se : . a Attached to this memorandum.was a series of geodetic tables, which were com- puted by Mr. W. F. King, and azimuth tables computed by the Surveyor General for use by surveyors engaged in surveying blocks under the new system. These tables and memorandum, were subsequently Incorporated in the new Manual of Surveys. This, however, ‘will be referred to in its proper place. *, Season. or 1880... This season saw the largest number of surveyors employed that had up to this time been engaged in surveying operations during any one year. . [parr vi] - fo: 21 55 Victoria. Sessional Papers (No: 13.). A, 1892. Fifty-five surveyors completed 3,418 miles of Standard meridians, parallel and township outlines, and 11,220 miles of township subdivision. ° . ‘This showing was an exceedingly creditable one, the season having been unfavourable for surveying operations on account of the continuous wet weather and bad condition of the roads. ; co Among the most important lines surveyed during this year was the 5th initial meridian, which was run south from Edmonton to Fort. Macleod, a distance of some 350 miles. This line traversed the country along the easterly slope of the Rocky - Mountains for a great portion of ita length, and the survey furnished reliable information regarding a beautiful tract of country both fox cultivation and grazing parpases, and one in which good soil was found to be prevalent, and wood and water - abundant, An important exploration was effected during this season by Professor John Macoun, who was sent to thoroughly: examine the Souris River Valley and adjoining region to the west and north. The Professor made a very careful examination of a large portion of the country, and his report did a great deal towards correcting many erroneous ideas about the agricultural capabilities of that district, and also furnished valuable botanical and ornithological information. a During this year an important change was made in the department, the Indian Branch was created a separate departmeut, and assumed control of the surveys of the ; Indian reserves in Manitoba and the North-West Territories, which had hitherto. been carried on under the Surveyor General. . ; © so ) SEASON OF 1881, The surveys of this season again show a considerable increase over those of the previous year, and consequently are in excess of any previous season’s operations. Seventy-three surveyors were engaged in carrying on work, and the large amount of 6,435 miles of Standard meridians and parallels and township butlines, and 16,865. miles of township subdivision lines, or'a total of 23,300 miles of line wero surveyed and marked. ; a, TS Some important changes were made this year in the method of laying out - Dominion Lands. Road allowances were, throughout, reduced from one chain and a-half to one chain, or sixty-six feet in width; and three of the east and west roads in a township done away with. The effect of this change was to transfér a very large area of land from road allowances into that of land available for purposes of sale and settlement, without detriment to facilities for communica- tion, and also to reduce the cost of survey of a township to such an extent as to make a saving in the survey of the Territories of probably two and a-half millions of, ollars. “Incidental changes and improvements in the method of survey were made, uh a new edition of the Manual of Surveys became necessary; this'was issued in March. - At contained very fall and detailed instructions to surveyors, and explanations - - regarding the change in.the system, and also several useful tables which had been, ~ prepared by Mr. King and Mr. Deville. an . In June of this seagon, Mr. E. Deville and Mr. W..F. King were appointed ° Inspectors of Surveys. Mr. A. H. Whitcher, who had been one of the inspectors of surveys up to this: date, became Agent of Dominion lands at Winnipeg, and Mr. Milner Hart, the dther inspector, retired, ; ; 7 The Surveys branch had;been long and faithfully served by these two gentle- | men, and much of the success in carrying on the field operations was due to their - exertions and practical experience; - sO Although large sottlements had by this time grown up in many parts of the - Territories, and surveys-in those localities were urgently needed, tho rapid construc-. tion of the Canadian ~Pacific Railway through the Territories necessitated the employment of all available surveyors in surveying the country-along the projected line of this road; however, the’ requirements of the outlying districts were not a2 ce [parr vi] - ‘55: Victoria. .

A. 1892 * altogether overlooked, and in the fall of this year large contracts were let for the subdivision of townships-in the vicinity of Edmonton. _ ’ Arrangements were also made in the fall to employ two block survey parties, during the winter in producing the 5th and 6th initial meridians in the Peace River country, This portion.of out territories having attracted considerable attention as a desirable field for immigration, it was desired to prepare for any subdivision sur- veys which might become necessary by having the initial meridians defined and marked on the ground, During this season an exploration was made by Professor Macoun along the western slope of the Duck:and Porcupine Mountains, and in the valley of the Red Deer River. This exploration afforded much valuable information regarding this* hitherto almost unknown portion of the country. ~ Co, In the early part of this season Mr, King was engaged in continuation of the - work of the verification, of the position of governing lines of the surveys, by astronomical observations A table of the results of the observations which were taken with this end in views given here, a In the latter portion of the season Mr. King, under his appointment as Inspector” of Surveys, supervised the operations in the field of the survey force employed.

Sessional Papers (No. 13.), "AL 1892 pasoe a ee ee oa tee = Fi —_ - Ninety-two surveyors were employed, divided into the three usual divisions of ‘block, township outline, and contractors. ; . The work accomplished covered a very large area, the ‘outlines of some 800 townships being surveyed, about 430 of which were subdivided into sections, —s.. In May of this year Mr. Deville was appointed Chief Inspector of Surveys, and took charge of the Survey Branch of the Department. This change become neces- sary owing to the promotion of the Surveyor General, Mr. Lindsay Russell, who becanie Deputy Minister of the Department on the 1st of January, Colonel Denniy having been superannuated on account of ill-health. - “.. In Colonel Dennis's retirement the department lost an officer who ‘had been associated from their inception not only with the surveys but also with the land administration branch, and one who owing to his large professional experience and deep interest in all things pertaining to the welfare of Manitoba and the North- . . West Territories had devoted his best energies with very material results to the advancement of both. : Mr. King, the Inspector of Surveys, had charge of operations in the field, and during part of the season established his headquarters at the Forks of the Red Deer and South Saskatchewan Rivers. “ ; _ + Owing to the lack of wood in the western portion of the Territories, and the o consequent difficulty in procuring wood posts, some other provision-had to be made -for marking the surveys. To meet this difficulty iron posts were substituted for the wooden posts for marking section corners. These were of half-inch gas pipe, 3 feet 8 inches in length, the numbers used to indicate the section, township and range, being stamped on a tin square placed on top of the post. Before the opening of the season’s operations in the field a large number of these posts had been manufactured in Montreal ‘and shipped to Winnipeg and from there - _were distributed. . In consequence of. the delays which had up to this time “occurred owing to sur- ' veyors delaying in' completing the subdivision of townships allotted them, and in preparing the returns of their surveys after the completion of the field work, two rules were adopted having in view the correction of these‘delays, The first was’to give a-bonus of 15 per cent to suryeyors filing in the department before the end of * the.year the plans and field notes of the whole of their survey. Tie other was to require all contract surveyors to report at a certain date their presence in the field, and to allot the work of the missing ones among those on the ground. .. > “These rules were found to work well, and their enforcement materially assisted ~in enabling the large amount of work accomplished; this season to be successfally completed, and the results.in the, shape: of completetoirnshiip: maps ‘to be putinty’'*-’: _, the, hands of-tbé land agents-throughout the Territories, - In order to prepare the-required copies of township plans for use by Iand agents and-in the department, and in consequence of the large number of these plans ° required, it was found necessary during this year to establish a lithographic offee in connection with the Surveys Branch of the department. : ; ~In view of the increasing population, and for greater convenience in regard t postal and other matters, an Order in Council was passed on the 8th of May of this ' year, dividing the North-West Territories into four provisional districts, called , respectively Assiniboia, Saskatchewan, Alberta and Athabasca, oe Szason or 1883. . ; The surveys of this season were conducted upon what may be termed a gigantic Beale. . . o One hundred and nineteed surveyors were employed, classed as follows :— _Ten surveyors of base lines, twenty-one of township outlines, four examiners of contract surveys, eighty-two contractors for subdivision surveys, one settlement belt surveyor, one town plot surveyor. - . : 24 O ; : _ [parr vi] - : an ae Sey. - - cL .

AL 1892 t This large number of surveyors, together with the necessary assistants, labourers, teamsters and cooks, comprised.a small army of men, and required for transport a large number of horses, carts, buckboards, &c. . ~ - The extensive surveying operations during this and the previous season became necessary owing to the rapid construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway, which in the fall of this year reached the Rocky Mountains, ; During this year 11,300 miles of: township lines were surveyed, and some 1,221 townships were subdivided, involving the survey of some 70,000 miles of line. The results of the season’s operations, which provided about 27,000,000 acres of land ready for the agriculturist, probably stand unrivalled in the history of land sub- division in any country. : _ The surveys covered the country between the Touchwood Hills and the Rocky . Mountains, and extended north from the second base line to the North Saskatchewan _ River, and one of the immediate effects of the information derived from the actual survey of this immense district, was the proof of the fact that only a very small portion of the district was unsuited to settlement. -. In the early part of this year it was found that the business of the Department -of the Interior had become so extensive that the offices of Deputy Minister and ‘Surveyor General, which had been combined in the person of Mr. Lindsay Russell, were separated. Mr. Russell retained the supervision of the technical branch’ as. Surveyor General, and Mr...A. M. Burgess became Deputy Minister. ° The supervision of the surveys at heddquarters was under control of Mr. Deville, Chief Inspector of Surveys, while Mr. King, Inspector of Surveys, had the direction of the operations in the field. m Mr. King established his office at Medicine Hat, on the South. Saskatchewan River, which proved a great convenience to surveyors, who were thus enabled to ' confer with an officer of the department, without the delay of correspondence with Ottawa, and this cénvenience was augmented by the continuance of a system which had been inaugurated during the previous season, of a corps of mail carriers, who visited the different parties in the field, distributing the mail, and carrying des- -patches to and from headquarters. - . In May a third edition of the Manual of Surveys was issued, which contained very full instructions 1o Dominion Land Surveyors regarding all operations to be performed by them, and also many valuable tables to assist them in their work, SEASON OF. 1884. cots Dhelarge area which had heen surveyed and made available for settlement by the operations of thé seasoné of 1882 and 1883 was now found to be fully equal to the immediate requirements, and it was considered advisable to curtail operations in the field, as experience had shown that the posts and mounds in unsettled districts are from various causes: obliterated, and in some cases the resurvey of the townships had been foung necessary. \ . . ; 5 : Tho surveys of this season were conducted chiefly in the districts between Car]- ton and, Fort Pitt, between Edmonton and Calgary, and in the vicinity of Fort Walsh, about 300 townships in all being subdivided, a Seventy-one surveyors were employed, of whom forty-eight were engaged on subdivision surveys, thirteen in surveying township outlines, two in examining con- tract surveys, aud the remaining eight on miscellaneous surveys at different points. Among’ the surveys, other than those having in view the subdivision of land into agricultural holdings, which had from time to time been undertaken by the department, may be mentioned the survey of the old trails or roads, which was begun ‘this season, the intention being to continue the survey from time to time of the important trails in thé Territories. , Lt _ *. These trails were surveyed and permanently located at the request of the Lieu- tenant Governor of the North-West Territories, and in accordance with the provisions of the North-West, Territories Act. . ¢ ‘ [pant vi] | 7 25 “s Pa 55 Victoria. Sessional Papers (No. 13.) .

With that end in view an exploration with micrometer traverse was made during this season of the Peace and Athabasca Rivers, and also of the Saskatchewan and Nelson Rivers from Prince Albert to York Factory. — A complete schedule.of the exploratory and micrometer surveys performed by the department during the period treated of in this history will be found in, the appendix. . . . PP The passage of the Settlement Act by the Legislature of British Colambia, and the transfer under. its provisions to the Dominion Government of a belt of land 20 .- tuiles in depth on both sides of the Canadian Pacific Railway through that province, necessitated the opening of an office in Victoria, B.C., for the disposal of the land. ~ thus acquired, and also the initiation of the survey of the lands within the belt. - ' These surveys wére begun in the vicinity of Port Moody and St. Mary's Mission, two surveyors being employed in subdivision surveys at these points; and two others were occupied in determining and laying down, as a general base for the sur- veys, the line of the Canadian Pacific Railway from Port Moody eastward. The Dominion Lands surveys in British Columbia, and the amendments to the system in force in Manitoba and the North-West Territories, rendered necessary in order to make the system applicable.toe.that mountainous country, dre more fully treated of further on. . aa On the 30th of June of this year, Mr. Lindsay Russel], the Surveyor General, retired from the service-on account of failing health. ‘In Mr. Russell’s retirement the department lost 4 gentlenran whose great abili- ties and professional- skill were universally recognized, and the Dominion Land Surveyors lost a chief who was ever ready to assist by advice and encouragement all efforts towards improvement in methods and knowledge, _ ’ Mr. Russell had been associated with the Dominion Lands surveys almost from their inception, and his knowledge and indefatigablé exertions very materially assisted in the successful prosecution of the surveys, and in developing their scien- tific and exact character. . i: : . Season oF 1885. | The surveys of this séason were on a very limited scale when compared with those of the two previous years, : The proposed operations were somewhat interfered with by the troubles which occurred in the northern part of the Territories in the spring of the year, but in any case the surveying operations would probably have been limited, as the require- menis of immigrants and the demand for subdivision surveys had been very fully provided for by the extensive surveys effected during the previous three years. Thirteen surveyors only were employed, who were allotted work as follows:— Tivo astronomers, one surveyor of railway line in British Columbia, one eub- divider in British Columbia, one surveyor of trails, one explorer, three surveyors of - town plots, and four subdivision contractors, . an The two astronomers, Messrs. O. J. Klotz and Thos, Drummond, Dominion. Topographical Surveyors, were engaged during the season in the ‘important work of ‘determining by means of the interchange of telegraphic signals, the longitudes of several points along the line of the Canadian Pacific ‘Railway in British Columbia, and also’ the latitudes of these points by astronomical observation. These points were to be used for the purpose of fixing the positions of.the initial meridians of the railway belt. At the same time Mr. Wm. Ogilvie was engaged in making a survey of the railway line to be used as a base for the future subdivision surveys at points along the line, , . | 26 - ‘+ [parr vr} a. ne 55 Victoria. Sessional Papers (No. 13.) A. 1892 It may be well to refer here, briefly, to the system adopted for the survey of the lands within the railway belt, and the proposed method of making the, surveys on the ground. ; : , i . Owing to the mountainous nature of the railway belt it was seen ithat'the sys- tem in force in the Territories required some amendments to make it applicable to this district. The chief amendment adopted was in referenceto the road allowances, which instead of being provided on certain lines, as in the genetal system, were provided for by an allowance being made in the.acreage of each section. __It-would be an impossible undertaking to try and follow the usual méthod of pro- jecting base lines and township outlines in a mountainous country, therefore some other base for survey operations throughout the belt had to be provided, and‘as the road- bed of the Canadian Pacific Railway afforded an easy route for a survey, an accurate instrumental traverse“along this line was adopted, as a most convenient and accurate method of establishing points of reference, from which the surveys at different points. throughout the belt could be started. The portion of this traverse between Port Moody and Révelstoke was completed by Mr. Ogilvie during this season as above mentioned? /” . uc ot methods followed in effecting this traverse, and- in putting the results in such’shape as to be ready for reference in carrying on dependent surveys are very _7Tateres ing; bat any description of them would be out of place here: both subjects va will bé found ably treated of in section II of this report. . “In the latter half of this season, Mr. Thos. Fawcett, D.T.S., made an exploratory survey from the Take of the Woods to Cat Lake, vié the English, Albany and Cat ’ Dake Rivers, and his ‘report furnished much valuable information regarding this portion of unsurveyed territory. . Tn consequence of the retirement of Mr. Lindsay Russell, already referred to, the position of Surveyor General became vacant. This vacancy was filled in March. by the promotion of Mr. Deville, the Chief Inspector of Surveys. : In the fall Mr. Dennis was appomted to carry on the work of making the neces- sary corrections to existing surveys, resulting from errors which had been made at certain points. The work done in this connection will be found more fully treated of farther on. . . . . SEASON oF 1886. Forty-three surveyors were employed during this season. They were divided as follows :— : Two astronomers, one topographer, one surveyor at Banff Hot Springs, three _ subdividers in British Columbia, two subdividers in the North-West Territories, four surveyors correcting old surveys and examining contract ‘surveys, twenty subdivision contractors, and nine surveyors of trails. . The astronomers, Messrs Klotz and Ogilvie, were engaged in the continuation of the work of determining the latitudes and longitudes of various points along the . line, of the Canadian Pacific Railway, and-in the North-West Territories. In addition tv this work, Mr. Klotz completed the traverse of the railway line from Revelstoke to the summit ofthe Rocky.Mountains, which as already explained was to be used as a base for the extension of .the Dominion Lands system of survey in British. Columbia; . wee . . Mr. D. L. S. McArthur, this season, commenced the work of laying down the topography of the country on both sides of the railway line through British. Columbia. He mapped the country between Canmore and Revelstoke, but was mych. - delayed in his operations owing to dense smoke caused by forest fires. This work . involved very-hard labour and considerable danger in climbing to the top of the high: mountain peaks, - . ete a, ‘ A large number of the old trails in Manitoba and the Territories were surveyed during this year, nine parties being employed on that work. These trails were defined and marked under the provisions of the North-West Territories Act, and [vart ve] 20 , t 55 Victoria. - Sessional Papers (No. 13.) A. 1892 many difficulties arose in surveying them, owing to tho settlers having fenced up the original trails; these difficulties were however settled by reference to the Lieu- tenant Governor of the Territories. - . . The only other surveys out of the ordinary’run of season’s operations carried on during this year was a micrometer traverse of the shores. of Lake Winnipeg by Mr, Wilkins, D.T.S. ; the commencement of the topographical surveys at Banff Hot Springs, by. Mr. G. A. Stewart, D.L.S. ; and the initiation of the work of effecting corrections where required to. existing surveys. oo An attempt was made during this year to introduce photography on the surveys, 4 humber of surveyors being supplied with cameras: ‘It was proposed to illustrate surveyors’ reports by reproducing their photographic views, and it was desired to test the usefulness of photographs in providing topographical information. . In July of this year, Mr. W. F. King, Inspector of Surveys, was promoted to the position of Chief Inspector, rendered vacant by the promotion of Mr. Deville. — As it had been found that in thé grazing districts of the Territories, the cattle\- and horses destroyed the marks of the surveys, by knocking down: the posts and . tearing down the mounds by pawing, it was decided during this season to try and prevent the obliteration of the marks of the surveys in these districts, by dispensing with the mounds, and using a large iron post firmly driven into the ground, four pits being dug as usual, but the earth from these being scattered about instead of being made into a mound. ° : . ; SEeAson or 1887. - Compared with the previous year there was a decrease in the surveying operations during this season. 1 Thirty-nine supveyors in all were employed, and the work effected was as follows :— , . ; The ‘csermioadon of the latitudes and longitudes of certain points was carried on under the charge of. Mr. W. F. King, Chief Inspector of Surveys, Mr. O. J. Klotz, D.TS., being associated with Mr. King in this important work. During the season the position of Wapella, Kalmar and Port Arthur were accurately fixed.,. In British Columbia five parties were engaged in subdivision sutveys, the work performed being in the New Westminster, Kamloops, Thompson ‘River, Little Shuswap Lake and Spellumcheen districts, and Mr. Dominion Land Surveyor Belanger was employed in planting section and quarter section posts in the vicinity of the railway line from the summit of the Rocky Mountains westward. Mr. J. J. McArthur and. Mr. W, 8. Drewry continued the topographical surveys | in the vicinity of the railway line, This work was carried on under a somewhat different system from. that in vogue up to thie time. The surveyors were provided, * in addition to the ordinary surveying instrumenta, with small cameras with which views were taken from different points, the positions of which were fixed by rough triangulation ; in mapping the district explored, the topographical details are sup- plied from the photographs, ~ (oe This “ photo-topographical.” system.of surveying was found to give good results, ~~ and-allowed-of large districts, which- owing to their mountainous nature could not be-surveyed by ordinary methods, being accurately mapped at a very small cost, _ The development, enlargement, &c., of the large number of photographs taken in connection with these photo-topographical surveys, necessitated the employment sof a-professional photographer at headquarters, which position was filled in April of this year by the appointment of Mr, H. N. Topley. a : Sevén surveyors were engaged during the season, under the direction of Mr. Dernis, who, on the 7th of May, had been appointed Inspector of Surveys, in effecting’ corrections to existing surveys at different points in the Territories, and in examin- ing subdivision contracts, : uo + _ {parr vr . 55 Victoria.

SO, Until the previous year that part of the North-West Territories adjoining Alaska had not been visited by any parties under instructions from the Government, and the information regarding that vast district, derived as it waa from travellers or - foreign sources, was necessarily very vague, a Juring this year it was decided .to send a joint geological and surveying expe- dition to make an examination of its resources. The expedition was ia charge of Dr. Dawson, Assistant Director of the Geological Survéy, with whom was associated Mr. W. Ogilvie. D.0S., who, under instructions from the Surveyor General, was entrusted with the work of surveying the Pelly and Yukon Rivers, and detining _ the point where the [41st meridian (the international boundary between Alaska and | Canada) intersected that river. ; ; Mr. Ogilvie was instructed to winter at the boundary line, in order to complete the necessary astronomical observations at that point, and in the spring of 1888 was to start for the mouth of the Mackenzie River, by way-of Porcupine River and Fort McPherson, and then ascend the Mackenzie River to Fort. Chipewayan, at which face he would connect with his exploratory survey of the Peace and Athabasca ivers, performed as already mentioned in 1884. ; ° In June Mr, Ogilvie reached Chilkoot Inlet, in Alaska, and commenced his sur- vey at one of the United States coast survey stations. He then crossed Taiya Pass, a distance of 18 miles, to Lake Lyndeman, the head of the Lewes River, and from there carried his survey down stream to the international bonndary line. __ This was much the most important and extensive exploration Which bad up to this time been undertaken by the department, and the results were looked forward to with a great deal of interest. . oy ’ During this season Mr. Dominion Land Surveyor St.Cyr was engaged in defin- ing the boundaries of the Rocky Mountains Park at Banff. Mr. Dominion Land Surveyor Miles located and surveyed reserves for the Mounted Police at different points in the Territories; and Mr. Dominion Land Surveyor Wilkins was detailed to survey certain lands occupied by the Methodist Church Missionary Society, adjoin- ing or inside the boundaries of Indian reserves. a Season oF 1888. é; The operations during this year, both in number of surveyors employed and work undertaken, shows'a decrease as compared with 1887. Thirty-five surveyors were employed, being distributed as follows :— ASTRONOMICAL WORK, The determination of the latitudes and longitudes was continued under the direction of Mr. King, Chief Inspector of Surveys, assisted as formerly by Mr, Klotz, During the winter a large astronomical transit and sidereal clock, with -electric attachment, both by the well known makers Messrs. Cook. & Sons, had been procured, and in the spring these instruments were set up in Winnipeg where Mr. King was located. Mr. Klotz during the summer occupied stations at Edmonton and Fort Pitt. tt _ _ ‘EXPLORATIONS. | Mr. Ogilvie continued his exploratory expedition in the Mackenzie district. _. In the early spring he crossed over from his winter quarters on the Yukon to the Mackenzie River by way of the Porcupine, and from Fort McPherson began his aurvey ofthe Mackenzie, By the fall he had reached Fort Simpson. ; ‘An exploratory party under charge of Mr. D.T.S, Fawcett started in May from Athabasca Landing for the mouth ot the Clearwater River, the object being to , [parr vi] 29 as \ ‘\ 55 Victoria, Sessional Papers (No. 13) ~ A. 1892 connect the surveys of the Athabasca and Nelson Rivers by a survey down the Churchill River. a : Mr. Fawcett was unable to reach the Nelson River. He finally reached the Saskatchewan by way of Cumberland, and descended that stream to Grand Rapids, and then by way of Lake Winnipeg to Winnipeg. — : CORRECTION SURVEYS. Five parties, under the direction of the Inspector of Surveys, were engaged during this season in carrying on correction surveys, among the most important of which may be mentioned the resurvey of the greater portion of the 5th initial meridian and part of the 4th initial meridian by Mr. D.L.5S, Belanger. BRITISH COLUMBIA. > . In British Columbia the work of re-establishing the reference marks of the traverse of the Canadian Pacific Railway, and the marking of the nearest section and quarter section corners, was completed by Messrs. Fawcett, Dufresne, Garden and. Cotton.: oo . Mr. McLatchie and party were employed in effecting subdivision surveys in the valley of the Spellumcheen River, which is one of the best agricultural districts in that province. ‘ Various subdivision surveys and resurveys were made by Mr, Cotton in the New Westminster District, and be also, by means of a traverse survey, established the limit of the railway belt on Pitt and Slave Lakes. — ; Mr. St. Cyr, who in the early part of the season completed the survey of the limits of the Rocky Mountain Park, and also some minor surveys in the Bow Pass, spent the latter part of the season in effecting a survey of the Columbia River for the purpose of defining the-southern limit of the railway belt. | ' MANITOBA AND NORTH-WEST TERRITORIES, Fourteen contracts were let for subdivision surveys in Manitoba and the Terri- : tories during this season, the larger number of the townships subdivided being north-east of Calgary. ; Albert district, and also a main trail on the south side of the Saskatchewan. River. Mr. John Bourgeois made a survey of the trail from Carlton to Green Lake, Mr. Green completed the survey of the more important trails in the Calgary district, and also effected the resubdivision of some townships in Southern Manitoba, The highway from Westbourne to Gladatone, along the line of the- Manitoba _ and North-Western Railway, was surveyed by Mr. C, P. Brown. 4 TOPO GRAPHICAL SURVEYS, The “ photo-topographical” survey of the Rocky Mountains was continuéd by Messrs. McArthur and Drewry, the former working in the Bow Pass from Copper Mountain eastward, and the latter being engaged in the Crow’s N 8 : The methods and instruments were considerably improved during this season, and a large-tractofeountry was accurately surveyed, . “OO NOTE, In the foregoing history of the surveys performed under the Dominion Lands system an attempt has been made to consolidate the information relating thereto, which is-now only to be found by reference to ‘annual reports of the department, or to documents on record in the department.

Sessional Papers (No. 13.) A. 1892 useful. for reference by those engaged in or interested in the survey operations of thé department, ; .\ To refer briefly to some points connected with these surveys, and to the benefits which have accrued from their prosecution, may not be out of place. When the vast country, now known as Manitoba and the North-West Territories, was acquired by the Dominion, the information possessed regarding its topography, soil and climatic conditions was very vague. It is true the greater portion of 1t had - been explored by the hardy pioneers connected with the Hudson’s Bay and Nortb- Paes West Fur Companies,.and exploratory surveys had been made by Captain Palliser and others, which afforded much valuable information; but in so far as reliable data or statistics, of use in inducing immigration, were’ concerned, the Government practically knew nothing. . The primary—eonsideration, having in view the future welfare of the country, was to devise a system under which the country could be rapidly and accurately subdivided into farm holdings. The system adopted and the manner of carrying it into effect have been treated of in the preceding pages. The prosecution of these surveys has resulted not only in the subdivision of the country in a thorough and accurate manner, but also in the acquirement of a mass of reliable information which has enabled us to affirm that in Manitoba and the North-West Territories, the Dominion possesses an heritage which, for healthy cli- mate, richness of soil and general adaptability. for agricultural pursuite, compares favourably with any country on the habitable globe. The manner in. which the surveys have been performed, both as regards the quantity of work done and the accuracy of results accomplished, reflects the greatest credit upon those connected with the administration of the survey operations; and we are able to boast that never in the history of any country has so large a quantity of work been so successfully accomplished in the same space of time, and further that our land subdivision surveys, under the Dominion Lands system, stand unrivalled for accuracy and permanency of marking. , ; ; In the appendix will be found a schedule for each season, giving the names and residences of the surveyors employed, the character of the work upon which each one was engaged, and details of the work completed. Schedules showing the trails surveyed, the reserves surveyed for the Hudson's Bay Company, Indian reserves surveyed by the Department of the Interior, micro- theter and exploratory surveys performed, correction or resurveys completed, the acreage of the yearly surveys, and all settlement, townplot and miscellaneous surveys effected, are also appended. ; i a [parr vi] _ . 31 \ ny ( } 55 Victoria.
