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."@en, ""@en ; edm:aggregatedCHO "https://open.library.ubc.ca/collections/xkootmail/items/1.0181638/source.json"@en ; dc:format "application/pdf"@en ; skos:note " IPTTiBIjISIOIIEJID TTXESIDiA/^r JL1&1D JFJEZUD^TST- VoL 7.���������No. 3'7.

In the lace of- deficit,' how can we afford ,to pay a staff of men to, be always ready to attend fires, and yet this is most nec- esMirj'. If it was possible to buy land .mil get a title to it iu the middle of i hi- town, I would say, build a central lire ball with police station and city hall combined, let the police liye there and the prisuners keep the fire apparatus in good order. 20 lo 25 men with one central lire hall would, be amiilv sufficient fortius (own at piesent; the cost of practice, false alarms, and actual fires co-ting double under the present arrangements what it woulel under a cential system. Another thing deserving attention ii. that two members of the council oil their own responsibility, bought furniture for ther fire hall without having' the mallei'debated: and as it was not a case, of emergancy I- consider their' action illegal. ' ' *' r,I woulel earnestly aelvise the utmost caution being used before purchasing the water and light plant, as cases' are on recoiel where the sellers had no title to (he land seild and' it had to be\" paidfor again: besides-, this town with practically no income, nothing in view,\" and not even a, legal outlet, cannot a'ford the expense, the deal had fur better be deferred for two or three years to come. \" If we buy now\" the' cost will be about $75000.00 and to put both systems in to a thoroughly efficient slate will cost the city nearly as' much more. I am strongly opposed to' spending .$4500.00 on streets, a ml sidewalks except the money be raised on ��������� half frontage tax on the sidewalks- at least, so as to relieve the city ftnfl' place part of the hut den on tho^e who are diaectly benefitted.
