DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Interim Reports (First, Second and Third) Of the Commission: To Investigate and Report Upon the Accuracy or Otherwise of All Returns Made Pursuant to the Crown Timber Act, Section 14, by Any Holder of a Timber License, Etc;, Etc;, Etc We, the Commissioners appointed by Commission of date the ninth day of March, 1920, have the honour to make the following interim report in respect of certain operations of Walter H. Russell, of the City of Port Arthur, either individually or by and through companies of which he was the principal and almost the only stockholder, or the manager. 1. The business of Mr. Russell and his companies has been, since 1907, the exploitation of the pulpwood resources of the Province of Ontario, in the District of Thunder Bay. 2. The pulpwood which they there obtained has been for the most part exported to the United States. 3. In order to secure certain valuable areas of pulpwood, Mr. Russell conceived and carried into operation a scheme for taking advantage of what he supposed to be the legal effect of the Mining Acts of the Province. He caused a number of persons closely connected with him, or in his employ, to take out mining licenses, nominally for themselves, but in reality for him and his companies (the fees being paid by him). As he himself says, the licenses were taken out and the locations selected and obtained solely for the purpose of stripping the properties of the pulpwood thereon; and it never was intended that even the slightest development should follow the alleged discoveries of mineral. 4. This was admitted by Mr. Russell to have been done mala fide. 6. Very large quantities of pulpwood were wrongfully obtained in this way. The books of the Russell Timber Company show that in 1913-1919 there were so procured at least 79,350 cords. 6. In addition to the above, Mr. Russell and his companies have trespassed for many years upon Government lands without shadow of right, and they have removed there from much pulpwood of great value, which they have dealt with as though it had been cut upon Mining Locations. 7. In our opinion, upon the admitted facts, proceedings should be taken to cancel the patents improperly obtained and also to recover the value of the pulpwood and for damages generally. 8. We transmit herewith the evidence respecting the above matters. All of which is respectfully submitted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
