Clearly seen is a line of tall poles supporting electric service lines and associated crossarms, insulators, transformers, etc. Power for trolley service might have been strung on the lower four-pin crossarms supporting somewhat heavier-looking cable.

See the following photo of a glimse of the other side of this street with towering telephone lines extending through this British Columbia downtown!
