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.

Vol.5.-No. 52. REVELSTOKE. WESTVkQOTMAY, B.C., APRIL 15^1899. $2.00 a Year. CORRESPONDENCE. The. Question of the Day Is labor's wages. We have bad a good opportunity to size up tnis question from the $40,000 speut on ttfe river bunk this winter. That is a large suiii to±cpend in a .small town like this ■ but it has done' no good except to a few that could have done without it Justus well, and for the resson that $2 per day is not enough for lahorers. A man pays $1 a duy for board; if he is a temperance man and a good church member he has $r'left,' for clothing, which U no1 small item, at least 23 cents per day; then there is always lost time'ors outside work: if he loses one day per wenki which he will, he has $2,501 eft, which makes $10 per month. If' he gets eight months' work out of twelve,'which is the , veiy^ ^most for an average, he will.be from $25 to'.$30"in debt at the end, as $10 per month for 8 months equals ,$S0; board for I months without work, $120. ,, And if he'is not such iitnan as referred to above he will have his.tobacco and a diink or two per day, perhaps go- to ' the theatre once or twice, he will be in , debt at end of the 8 months to the people who make the wages. They' cannot prosper because there is too much credit and too much loss now. <■ Who do these small wages benefit, no. one in the world that ,is, fair and upright. • A man may lake a good job for a good, price and i cut' watjes to "make more, but the next jobh" has to "' take for less and pay. still smaller wages. Big companies will cut wages 't'6 get then work done cheap but they make a mistake, for this reason; a ''good man will not' work for small wa^es if he can help it and he. will do more good work in a day for $3 than a ' poor man in a day and a half for the satne; and'with a good foreman those Can be picked out at once, A man should he. .paid according "to the amount of'good work he does and .not for the kind of work he.'is put at; the iesultwoukl he that .there, would he more «ood work done lor less money.

Thi* is not to suggest that some special means should be devised to lighten the taxation of British Columbia, for that would be both absurd ,and impossible. The idea" is that the province should receive something like a relative share of the puklic expenditure.' Not that that there ought to be expended in this province two and one-half-times as much per capita as in the other provinces. What ought to he impress- ed upon the public mind is that the province is paying more than itjs share of the cost of" keeping the Dominion" going, that every dollar expended in opening the province and bringing in population means a direct .i el urn to the revenue two and a half times as 'great as money spent for a similar purpose elsewhere, that the province has in a sense a vast sum lo its credit in the shape of a surplus of its contributions over all the expenditures niade on its behalf, and therefore that, when demands are made'for consideration in the future, they are entitled to respect not only on the score of fair, play but on good business principles.

McKechnie explained the-case was one of' diphtheria and a special meeting was called to consider it and' appointed^ inedical health officer. Aid.

McKechnie thought they had the same power to appoint health officer as to appoint a city clerk. . Aid. Crage asked in furtherance of Aid. Graham's point if peace was broken, was it not safeguarded by provincial police till their own were appointed. Aid.

Bylaws had'been reported,complete with amendments by committee and second- reading given; but now, if^'.he understood aright, the third reading was but formal and several clauses necessary to working of, by-laws having been, laid over they could not be. put in or the by-laws altered at,all they having been reported .complete, as amended. He wished for information it being eminently necessary that their proceedings should be regular on such matters. Aid. McKechnie thought they could amend on a third reading. Aid. Wells an'd Aid. Graham agreed in thinking by-laws useless as far as gone if not amendable on third reading; the latter suggesting the desirability of beginning de noro. The mayor was uncertain of the piocedure but thought amended clauses could be discussed on third reading; however,, it was better delay'action till city solicitor present to consult with.
