r ,
The public, no doubt, is curious to
know the nature Of the business prop
Osltion that enticed J. A. Nichols
t resign his office Of county auditor
OF Morrison county, an office that is
coveted by many, and brings to its
incumbent the neat sum Of $1,000
annually
Aboutta month ago the Nichols
Lumber company was Incorporated
under the laws Of MINES ,tss, and
although mention wau then made
OF the company, the public was
given but little Inf .rmation regard
ing the scope OF the business the
company would handle.
Mr.. Nichols, speaking about tho
company, stated yesterday that L.
II. Shevelin, the Minneapolis lumber
man has long had in view the or
ganization Of Il company to carry on
this particular branch of the lumber
industry, and has several times be-
fore endeavored to induce Mr.. Mich
OILS to give up hi Office and embark
in the enterprise. He at last sue
ceeded, and the Nichols Lumber
company was rganized and incor-
porated with $4,000 capital.
The officers are President. j. \. \ich-
OILS; vice president, George Nichols,
Little Falls; secretary, T. H. Sheve-
lin, treasurer, II. C. Clark, Mime
apolis.
. The company will do a general
lumber business. 1t will buy and
sell pine lands. pine stumpage, buy
and sell logs, contract logging oper-
atiOns and will also handle hard
wood timber of all kinds and spruce.
TO J. A. Nichols will I've left nearly
the entire responsibility, 1t will be
upon his Judgment that all pine
lands and stumpage will he bought
and in fact the hardwood and
spruce lands and stumpage also.
For this particular branch of the
business we know of no one better
quilted to do it successfully than
MIR. Nichols. He has had an enten-
sive experience in timber estimats
ing, both in the employ Of MIR.
Sheveliu and others, an, today
there is scarcely a man in the state
whose Judgement on such matters is
considered more reliable.
George Nichols will have charge
OF the logging operations Of the
company. This ia also an import
ant position for which the company
could not have r AIDE a better selec-
ton. From bnyhood up Mr.. Nichols
has conducted logging operations,
and certainly has the advantage of
q vast amount Of experience
The company, while capitalized
for $1,000, has much more capital
at it's disposal should it's operations
require it, and no doubt they will,
for all those connected with it are
What are known as business hustlers
and will extend the operations to
the full limits of their capacity to
handle il,
Mr.. Nichols has opened an office in
the Butler block in this city, but the
nature of his business from now on
will call him away a great deal of
the time, as he expects to personally
look over all lands and timber
stunpage bought by the firm.
MIR. Nichols ia uaid Il comfortable
salary by rhe company. besides
sharing in the profits Of it's opera
tions. 1t can readily he seen that
with any reasonable degree of sue
CESS, MIR. Nichols has u much better
prospect than IL political career
offered.
