Canada Lumberman Weekly Edition April -6, 1904 BRITISH COLUMBIA LETTER. (Correspondenct of the Canada Lumberman.) Vancouver, March 28th, 1904.—Con- ditions in all lines of the lumber industry in this province are at present firm, and there are ample indications that they will remain so. Last year was a disastrous one to loggers, several operators becom- ing bankrupt, and a large number of camps closing down. This, with the deep snow this winter, has caused a scarcity, and good merchantable logs sell from $6 to $7 per thousand.

Heaps & Company refused to enter. The members of the Association met morning, noon and night for a week, and Mr. Heaps was inter- viewed at his house by some mill men prominent in the organization, and at last (he announcement was officially made that no pool would be formed, and that every- thing would proceed as formerly. Prices for rough lumber range in the neighborhood of $13, while that for the finished article varies. This figure has been maintained for
