. Canadian forest industries 1903. Lumbering; Forests and forestry; Forest products; Wood-pulp industry; Wood-using industries. THE CANADA LUMBERMAN 23 president, W. G. Dickinson, Victoria ; secretary, C. H. Lugrin, Victoria ; treasurer, E. E. Welsch, Victoria. Preliminary to beginning the manufacture of pulp the company will establish a saw mill at Qtiat- sino. P. C. Hohlenburg and J. T. McNeill, of Cleveland, Ohio, representing an American syndicate, recently secured an option on the properties of William Bruck- hof and William Godard at Springdale, Kings County, It is understood that if the option is taken up a pulp mill will be erected on the property.

He contends that the extra duty would have to be paid by the consumer, and that if the law were applied in the case of pulp, by a parity of reasoning it must also be applied with respect to lumber. This would bring about an awk- ward situation, as many Amarican companies have built large saw mills in Canada.
