In 18V6 he was made a member of the Legislative Council of the Province of Quebec. Mr. Rolland was the head of one of the most important paper manufac- turing firms in the country, with mills at St. Jerome and St. Adele.

Jules Allard, Minister of Lands and Forests, states that a decision on the subject will be announced shortly. He has given no suggestion as yet regarding the government's attitude but states that in regard to this matter as in all others affecting the industry of the province, the government will do its best to encourage suc- cessful development. He has declined as yet to say whether the embargo will be removed either wholly or partially. The purpose of placing the embargo upon the export of pulpwood grown on Crown lands was to give 'the province the benefit of the manufacture of its pulpwood into paper. This would enable the province to utilize its wealth of water power and provide employ- ment for its population, thus preventing an exodus to countries out- side of the province. Not only was the manufacture of paper in the province a benefit to its people, but it was better for the United States paper manufacturers to establish their mills on the Canadian side of the line. It would be cheaper for all new mills to adopt this course so as to save freight charges on pulpwood and to take ad- vantage of the cheap water power available in Quebec.
