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.

That a Dominion Bureau of i\Iu;es be created with'a view to (he placing of that industry,"whicli to British Columbia, is one of vital imporfance, ou the same footing, -is j.-, that of agriculture and other industries. ,'i That we recognize with approval (.Inaction ol the government in the provision-made for the free re! urn into Canada'of lead ot Canadi.ii! origin sin el led in Canada but refined abroad, and in 'view of the large production of lead bullion now going on in Canada (a production that a few years since did not exist) and that in view of the gieat inequality ol' the duties leviert' on lead products and other materials used in the manufacture of paints, such duties ranging from nothing to oo per cent of the value thereof, this' convention would Tecnmmeiul'thai* the tariff of customs on lead ^products and other materials used in (he manufacture of painls coming into Canada be'revised and put on a parity with each other and with thedtities now levied for revenue purposes upon similar classes of goods.

A/Galliher of Nelson. ' . "The announcement of Mr. Galiiher's na'ti'ie was"greeted with great applause,, by the convention which seemed to be of one mind with the mover of his nomination and it was some, time before S. S. Taylor, Q.Li., of Nelson, who.'1 rose to second Ihe nomination could be heard, .lie.spoke of riSlr. Galliher as a . fellow townsman and assured the dele! gates ihr-y wonldniake.no mistake by \ n'liiiiii.'iting him as hew as assured of not only the solid support of the Liberal.-^',, of South ICoolenay but also i f a very large conservative vote^throughout the southern portion of this great, mining constituency who.-e ne; ds and lequiiv- nients none knew heller than did Mr. Galliher, whose, intimate kno'vvleage of' I he country and piofessional acquaintance with t.he law would enable him to be of inestimable, sei'vice to his constituents. It was with much eloquence r and force (hat Mi. Taylor continued to urge the claims of his'nominee,'and .*, the applause which greeted his perioral ion vvas evidence that he had inclined the. convention lo his opinion in this regatd. This wasmadeappurent when the'chaii man called for furl her nominal ions without iespouse, the. nomination:" being .declared closed and Mr. Galliher lo be llie unanimous' choice of the (-(invention. This announcement was greeted with a wild outburst of enthusiasm aiUl it was some minutes before Mi. Galliher could geta hearing, congratulations being showered upon him from all qua 11 ers.
