To the Stockholders, at the Annual Meetings, 1876-1877 The business now done on these shores being almost wholly that of lumbering, or coal mining, the general appearance of the country is that of unbroken forest. The amount of lumber manufactured on the Sound is reported at two hundred and fifty millions feet annually. Victoria, in British Columbia, is at a stand still. The only thing noticeable there, as interesting us, is a large pile of railroad iron, intended for the Canadian Pacific Road. Port Townsend is a thrifty town, and seems likely to become a place of some importance. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
