we
shall
have

declared
Olof
Hanson
of
this
city
when
discussing
the
business
he
is
doing.
Most
of
the
poles
are
being
cut
on
the

and
Skeena
Rivers
and
floated
down
to
Cedarvale
where
they
are
loaded
on
to

shipped

The

are
all
sold

it

only
a

them

his

declared
that

nf

He
advocated
the
establishment
of

nf
unbiased
economists
to
conduct
a
scientific
study
of
the
tariff,
"the
one
