The Ladysmith Daily Ledger was published in Ladysmith, in the Cowichan Valley region of Vancouver Island, and ran from July 1903 to December 1906. Ladysmith developed as a residential area for the employees of a large coal mine, and, in 1904, it had a population of approximately 4000. The Ledger was published by the Ladysmith Publishing Company, which also issued the paper under two variant titles: the Daily Ledger (April to July, 1905) and the Ladysmith Ledger (September to December, 1906).

Will BUILD 1U8IIM ������������������������+��������������� Seattle, Sept. 1-1.���������Reports which liave been current for the past1 few months to the efioct that the Canadian Pacific contemplated building into Seattle were further supported yesterday'by 0. E. Loss, aiailioad contractor' - of San Francisco, who announced his belief that the Canadian road will i tie extended Jicie within eighteen months. Mr. Lost, thinks also that the Western Pacilic ���������will be here within, two years., Mr. Loss is at the head of the C E. Loss Company, of San Fiaihcisco, one of the largest railway contracting firms in the West. His com7 pany is now building the Similka- meoii extension of the Canadian.- Pacific and announces that that line will be finished withm ninety days. Mr. Loss' intimate connection with railroad construction on Uie Pacific coast, makes Aim a close obseivei and student of railroad conditions, which lends weight to his opinions in these nutters, although it is entirely unofficial. "lYou may say," said Mr. Loss at the Hotel Butler last night, "that! heliove the Canadian Pacific ' wiM leach Seattle within-eighteen'month.-; There is at piesent a feeling among the officials of the road that an cx- pansive policy is needed, and it appears to. be the intention to fight J. J. Hill iu his own teuitory. "While I am not at ltbeity to point it out to you, I know -of a practicable route which the Canadian Pacific.can obtain from Vancouver to this city, tapping terntoi) not reached by the Great Northern or the Northern Pacific. The Canadian Pacific Railroad, 1 believe, will build every mile of its^ xextension and-not avail ,itsell of existing lines. "So far as the Western Pacific is concerned, its original intention was ito build ,to San Fiancisco, ibut since the destruction of that city, which will ol physical necessity be slow in rebuilding, it is only natural to believe that the Goulds will bring their line to Seattle. kI expect lo see their road here in two years." Tuesday, the Southern Pacific railroad announced its intention of [build ing a coast line to Portland, using existing lines, and forming a holding company ;with the Santa Fe to operate all \ the tiackage between San Francisco and Eureka. This move, thinks Mr. Loss, is inspired by tho intention of the Goujd road to build on north.
