To the'Editor oi- thic Ledger: I notice in a recent issue of the Free Press a letter from Mr. W. R. Ross (afterwards produced in .pamphlet form) in which.he makes statements regarding" myself and In the first place I have never charged'Mr. Ross with opposing the bill in question (he and then absenting themselves from the House when a bill is in Committee is too coarse ; method of doing business to deceive any ordinary observer, It may be good politics but where do the people come in. I was not wholly unprepared,'for the change of front of certain members including Mi\ Ross, for when in Victoria as a member of a cWogation"to secure support for the bill I observed a prominent official of the Crow's Nest Pass Coal Company in the corridors of the House, directly after the second reading and was perfectly satisfied as to his business. Mr. Ross slates that I "saw a number of members of the House and enlisted their support" but I "r//V/ not astern/..11m sumo courtony'lo him". This is an absolute falsehold and he knows it for he did not attempt to deny it at Coal Creek, where, at his own meeting I charged him wilh making this false statement. Victoria. He claims these amendments were trifling matters, I claim that nothing is triflying that tends to-save life and limb and if the Miners of this district have to give two years' notice to their Member of Parliament as to what lliey want in the way of legislation of this kind it i.s high time they got busy. In the matter of Open Towns Mr. Ross has suddenly discovered that something ought to ho done hut very discreetly omits to pledge himself to do anything. So far as the outside world is aware, he has sat for over three years and never opened his mouth on this matter. This is no worse an evil now than it was three years ago. Whythis'maslerly silence? Mr. Ross is being made painfully aware of the fact that his constilutents have not been all asleep this past three years and unless I mistake their temper, will, on I'eby. 2nd, relegate him to that private life that he so well rulcm1-, T nm wHl twnro of (he fnct that Mr. P.or<' .im! his parly cow.idcr that a wv./kii;^ man should have, no1 political ambition;;; that should, of course, be left lo J'JjiaJ ch.ss lawyers, It is,rank heresy,to suppose that a workingman would know how to legislate for workingmen.

Title | The Fernie Ledger |
Publisher | Fernie, B.C. : D. V. Mott and G. G. Meikle |
Date Issued | 1907-01-26 |
Description | The Nakusp Ledge was published in Nakusp, in the Central Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia, from October 1893 to December 1894. The paper was subsequently published as the Ledge both in New Denver, from December 1894 to December 1904, and in Fernie, from January to August 1905. The Ledge was published by Robert Thornton Lowery, a prolific newspaper publisher, editor, and printer who was also widely acclaimed for his skill as a writer. After moving to Fernie, the paper continued to be published under variant titles, including the Fernie Ledger and the District Ledger, from August 1905 to August 1919. |
