The Ledge was published by James W. Grier until 1907, and was subsequently published by R. T. Lowery (1907-1920) and G. W. A. Smith (1920-1929). The paper's longest-serving editor was R. T. Lowery (1906-1926), a prolific newspaper publisher, editor, and printer who was also widely acclaimed for his skill as a writer.

Miners Union t 1 * Speaks Plainly, ABOUT READING EOOM Believes That Council Should Con; -, - tribute Something Towards Jts Support To the Editor of The Ledge .Dear Sir���������In your issue dated March 7th you stated that the city council had stopped the donation of 815 perjiiotith to tbe free reading room. -This -is quite true, but for the. benefit of tbe reading public, I think I will throw some light on the matter. The free reading room was first- started in Greenwood by ladies of the W. C. T. TJ. and was supported at first entirely by popular subscription. Later a grant of $15 per mouth was obtained from the city council and this grant held good till the last election of city officials, when the W. C. T. if., disbanded and the reading room assumed the propo-iionsof a white elephant on the hands of the com- .jrer street. Jas McGregor, mine inspector, was in the city last week ami visited the mines of Phoenix and Dead wood camps. The, latest assays from the Duncan mine, at Beaverdell gave 8202 and SI7-1 in -silver. Theso assays were from heavy zinc ore. At the annual meeting of the Canadian Mining Institute, held iu Toronto, Frederic Keffor, con- sulting.engineer for the B. C. .Copper company, was elected president. The Boundary .Crock Times appeared last week 11s a ,?.-cpluiiiii, 4- page paper, (tho saino foi;m as the Ledge.' ' Wo congratulate the management ou its improved appearance, mittec, iu whioh the city council was represented.' They requested the Miners' Union to take over the fixtures of the city re tiling room, as they, the,Miiiers' Union, were running a yer, suecer-sful reading room on their own account. When the present council was. clect'-d'and was requested by the union to con- tinue^the usual grant, (hey asked for a committee to-be appointed by the union to niee't a committee from the city council a,vA discuss tbe manner in which the reading 100m was conducted:' ��������� Mayor Bunting Aldermen Gulley and Wood represented the eity city council, and, R. RiwIuiepu., T. tGould, C. A. Phillips and my-' self represented the union.. After consideiable di-eus.-dou M-ryoi Hunting said that he wanted to do what was right; Alderm-n Gulley- said he knew that in rhe pa-f t!i<- money had been well .'-pent, though neither he nor any ni\"inb-r of the cminiitti-c had vi-ited the reading room, or inspected its stock of lit- eratuie; Alderman Wood did not state 1iis view of the question, but said he thought we had better lay the res dtof the meeting before the union. That, Mr. Editor, is the stamp of men trie intelligent voters of Greenwood elect to handle their, public affairs. Is it because the city councilors have been lending a ready ear to seveial varieties of knockers, the donation - was stopped. Knocker No. 1 -is a parson, who objects to the present reading room because the, Socialists have their literature there, ami who tried to start a combined reading room and gymnasium. Socialist papers on the tables, to that I pleatl guilty, no parson can do my thinking or dictate what 1 shall read, that is also the sentiments of others. Theie are two capitalist papers in the,reading room >to every one Socialist paper, also several religious p.-ipurs .(though I admit tho latter are seldom read) and if the parson could see none, but Socialist p-ipets on (he tables, he should consult an oculist as bis views are sadly restricted. Another objection urged against itho 'reading room is that itisalwaiH filled with union men, and why .not ? Is it a disgrace to be a union man ? If so, then I am disgraced and bopo'I may never outlive it. The object in maintaining a reading room is to.provide a place where men who live in hotels can spend a few hour's '.injstudy or recreation apart froln theidemoralizing influence of saloons'^and gambling tables,.and thernicn-beneiittccl are the employees'in the,'mines, smelt- eis, and stores,-'as' these men almost, all belong to \"unions. That objection is -groundless. My advice to all those-who,object to the present reading room because Socialism' is discussed,there, is to apply for Dr. Osier's old'age pension, as \"Socialism is the absorbing topic all over the \"world today. - Now,\"Mr.-Editor, if-I havi been rightly! 'informed, the city council voted $100 to tbe board of trade to defray the expenses of ,t!ieir smoker. In, mentioning .tin's\". I am not knocking the board of trade, as the boys,- (including, myself) had a good \"time, 'and aided the church members in thcii^ applause when the Lord's Day-Act wa'sdenouueed, the point I' want to bring out is this, the city council handles the public money. The board of trade is not a public institution, as they require an initiation fee, if the hoard of'trade can get a rakeoff from the city treasury to pay for a smoker, theri the churches are entitled to the same privilege for their socials, and so are the unions and fraternal lodges. Now, Mr. Editor, if the city council and the parsons of Greenwood are as anxious as they claim to benefit the homeless yoiiflg men, they must prove it by taking a better stand than \"���������topping ths allowance to the reading room. . In closing I will state that trie Miners'Union have, run the only succe.������.sfur'''?Vadiiig room iu Greenwood, and will continue to run it free to the public wh'ither assisted by the city council or not.

Thtirrday- evening of last week the Associated Boards of- Trade took ,up the disctisssion of the Cord's,Day Act and the effect of its enforcement on the mining camps of-the West. -The churches of the city were, represented with the exception of tho English Church. Rev: H. tf. Hastings as local secretary of the Lord's Day Alliance, addressed the delegates, as also'did the Rev. Father Ilartmaun of the Roman Catholic Church. The latter gentleman, perhaps, struck the keynote of the question as it effects tlie mining camps of this province, when he asked tbe delegates to \"be fair.\" That is all'the west wants is a fail deal. Conditions here are not the same as in in -the Eist. The unmarried man in the West cr.i live comfortably on S3 or Si a day and work only six days per week.

The discussion'was opened by G. O. Buchanan, ^president of the Associated Boards, who was strong--' Jy iu favor of the principal of the act. Though moderate iu liis speech, Mr. Buchanan left no doubts a p. the minds of his hearers assto his stand on the,question and advocated the enforcement of the act. Mr. M.' A. White.sjMo of Greenwood, although favoring a day. of rest for all, pointed out that at times iu mining camps great loss would result from the enforcement of the.act. Mr. F. E. Simpson of Cranhrook, was emphatically opposed to the coercive principle of tho act. lie thought it unfair for the east to dictate the manner in which the west should observe the d iy. Mv. YV. G. Gaunccof Greenwood could not vote on the question as he had not received instructions from his board of trade, btlfis was iu favor-of a Sunday observance. Mr. R. R.
