The Kootenay Mail was published in Revelstoke, in the Columbia-Shuswap region of southeastern British Columbia, and ran from April 1894 to December 1905. The Mail was published by the Revelstoke Printing and Publishing Company, and its longest-serving editor was J. Livingstone Haig. In 1906, the Mail merged with the Revelstoke Herald to form the Mail-Herald, a staunchly conservative paper that eventually folded due in part to competition from a more liberal competitor, the Revelstoke Review.

T.'Brevvstei said that in but one particular was the situation changed ; since the petition'bad been circulated; signed and forwarded lo Victoria. For .some reason or othei' not appaient " fhe plainly expressed wishes of the people had been disregarded by the , government, and their will defeatetl,* evidently'-by the unwarranted inter- fe'rance 'of one man.' " Ct Mr. Brewster then made a very -i'm- bigucuisly worded- motion that a delegate be sent to Victoria and secure the immediate incorporation of Kov- elstoke. and - then interview Messrs. Somlin and Cotton and learn if there were ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ any reasons for delay, and entirely ignoring" Mr. Kellie in llie mailer. , This motion was seconded-.by , W. W. Brown. _ r ., Mr. McCarter said'fthat ti binding*! promise lincl been * made that the muYiicipnlity would not have, to assume responsibility for protection work; that. Mr. Cotton was a ware 0 of the .prospective incorpoiation when be much* the pioinise. As we,'had the government's pledge we -should go on and incorporate and that,would constitute a good.claim against the province for inofeelion. Tbe petition had s ' _ been pigeon holed and now Mr. Keilie 'appears on the scene vvitli objections; this was nn affront offered the people and should be resented. ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ Delegate should'go and press incoiporation. He then offerrd an amendment, inak- ing the motion read as follows; "That a delegate be sent to Victoria to secnie the immediate incorporation of Kevelstoke: That he be instructed to iuquiie fully into the reasons for the government's disregard of the people's wishes as set forth in their petition.", H. A. Brown; . Thought it a good ideii to send delegate; we had nothing to fear. - T. L. Hnig opposed amendment; feeling wns general that we should be careful; should vv nit and see what was meant; believed Mr. Kellie bad idea that,wo vvouid hazard chances for government aid by incorporation at present; should,wait a few weeks as requested, otherwise this was simply a meeting to pi ess date for* incorporation; could see no affront; was a kindly meant' warning and the board should not assume responsibility of ignoring it. Mr. Haig then moved an amendment to the amendment, instiucling the delegate, to ascertiiin if there wen* any good reasons for decbiy, find to communicate with the board by wire' for fiuther instructions if he found any. P. Chapman thought that in fairness to Mr. Kellie sua)) judgement should not be taken nor his warning be disregarded. 11. N. Coursier was iu favor of incorporation, but could not aee what would be gained by baste. He wanted some reason, for this hurry; had heard no reasons for haste but many against it; the main reason for hurry hist moi)tb vvas that the city could collect license money; this loss could not now be re-paired: nothing could be lost by further delay and much might be . _ ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ I ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ i. gained. The question of responsibility for river bank pi election work had been in dispute between the provincial and ' federal government* for years: should we become the third party to the dispute? If responsibility was thrown on municipality it would affect till tux .pavers. Tbe question should How be left to Ihe public; public meeting bad delayed incorporation until responsibility could be fixed; public should be consulted now. II.

It 'may possibly be remembered that, in that nilicie mentioned a prediction of prosperity was bold out foi the year of l-SOS. It will bo our business in the present efi'oi,t to ,see lo what extent that prediction has been fulfilled. There aie, doubtless, a number of people who will claim that the'past year lias not brought forth all that'iwas expecU'd of it. There is a certain amount of truth perhaps in the assertion, iu so far as it'applies to the' opening up of the mining district tributary to us, but tin' explanation is not far lo seek. Just at tbe time of year when outside capital "is "forthcoming tlie Spanish-American .war practically prevented investment.'to an enormous extent and-the opening ii'p of our tributary dinlricts suffered' in consequence..

Following closely on"real estate we ;|coiiie lei the building operations 'which have been carried on during tlie past year.- Here, too, we see. a very marked improvement, not only as to the number,'but in the value of the buildings elected. Most noticeable perhaps are the following: The Taylor block, Molsons Bank, C. P. R. machine shops a iiii Tapping's theatre. Added to these is the. large number of private dwellings and smaller stores which have changed tbe aspect of so many of tbe various tracts of vacent land so noticeable in 1897. Another of the advances towards the prosperity of Kevelstoke which may be added to the list is Ihe apparent desire of the Ca iliac) ian Pacific Railway 'company to ameliorate the conditions under which we have so long suffered' in regard to freight rales. This is a question of vital ' importance to Kevelstoke and although n good mcive has been ma'de there still remains a wide field for improvement, though, from the-present ^outlook, there is little doubt that-during the coming year a satisfactory sctllenit'iit of this vexed question will be;reacli.'c'. Last yeai a good deal of stress vvas laid on tbe fact of the tail- vvuy company having moyed its offices fiom Donald to this point. This year we. have the satisfaction of not only seeing thc offices but tho repair shops. This means a considerable .amount to us, especially as it i.s not only the intention to move the shops from Donald but to enlarge their capacity vvlien established at this point. In evidence ot this we have trie nevv building which the company lias jo*-1, completed. Anyone who has visited tbe old Donald shops will notice the diU'eience and will be well -able to realize hov\u00EF¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ very much more complete and substantial the Kevelstoke building is. Another valuable addition to our commercial institutions here during the year has been fhe establishment of a branch of the Molsons Bank. This in conjunction with the ImporiahBank, whose advent was chronicled in 1S97, places Revelstoke in ii very satisfactory position in this, branch of business. The block which has been erected by them and in which their offices are situated, on the corner of McKenzie Avenue and First Street, is one of the notable improvements iu the building line dining 1S0S. One very noticeable fact is evident with" regard to lbe buildings which have been erected during the past two yea is and that is that generally speaking they aro of a better class and more substantial than any built earliet. This applies equally to houses of business and dwellings, and it speaks well for the confidence of the people of Kevelstoke. in the town and will surely have its effect on the outtMcU'i It would he well perhaps now to review (bï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½* business clone in the prwiai and customs departmenls during the past year, and in doing so tn.ike a fovv comparisons with that transacted iii'fi-in;ei years.

The1 venr of 1S8S has seen the first , steps taken towards Ininging about a" settlement of the question of "Tiv.iu'- porlalion into tbe Big Bend country.'" This in itself if carried thiough sue-,, cessfully, and there is eveiy .reason to ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½' believe that it'will be cai i-ied through, would he oiie of the greatest0'benefits to Revelstoke that it is ' possible ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ to conceive. Frciiu'what has'been done hitherto in the Big Bond .country,' in, ihe way of mining enterprise, -tbeie is little if any room In .'doubt that it is one of the richest,* if not the richest, iniueral,region in the Konlenays-',' bub it has been praclic-ally inaccessible without CTie expenditure of large sums of money for transportation. Hence ils very slow development. Given ineaiis_ctf access and fair rates of transportation and there is no question bub that the Big Bend will more, than hold its own with any of-its sistet' camps in the countiy. Lfnder these circumstances it is certainly permissible to consider the inauguration of a transportation company to achieve the above end a distinct gain to the town of Revelstoke during the past year. On examining the development of mining operations in the various distiicts tributary to Kevelstoke; we find that despite the lack of capital, which" should have come in, good work bus been*done and good results have been' obtained, and Revelstoke as the supply point for these districts has reason to congratulate itself on these results.. In conclusion, it may safely be said that Kevelstoke has held her ou n well in,the race for prosperity which is tbe inevitable lot of all western towns, unci if all of my predictions of last year for 1S9S have not been fuliilled, there aie not a great many of them iu which we have fallen short. This being the case we can look forward with" confidence to the year of LS99. or. there is no doubt that the various ditlic-ulties which will doubtless fall to our lot, will" be overcome us easily and as' well as they have been in 130S. <3> i * A Remarkable Wedding.
