BC Historical Newspapers
The oldest mining camp newspaper in British Columbia. ; The Ledge was published in Greenwood, in the Kootenay Boundary region of southern British Columbia. 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. The Ledge absorbed the Boundary Creek Times in April 1911, and was published under a variant title, the Greenwood Ledge, from August 1926 to May 1929.

Don't misa it, f Mining Truth, Spokane, says: "Three months ago, in its iestie for June 16"; Mining Truth gave the public the first general account ever written of the new mining camp of Beaverdell, British Columbia." The following reference to the above remarks is from The Slocan Record, published by James W. Grier in New Denver: "Mining Troth is slightly in error. Tbe first newspaper men-| tion of Week Fork country appeared in. tbe Midway Advance after the return of Jas. C. Dale from locating the Carmi and Butcher Boy in 1897 and was written by the publisher of this paper. There wqs a previous location farther north in tbe 80's called the, headlight. In 1901 we published the West Fork News at Beaverdell and wrote up all the claims of the district and "predicted that it would prove one of the great high-grade belts of the province. It required Duncan Mcintosh's luck and practical common sense to bring this about. Twenty-fonr years ago mining men wanted big bodies of copper-bearing ore, and those working the Wallace mountain claims used low-grade methods in mining, and the values were blown all over fehe scenery." Mining Notes Figures prepared by the Provincial Mineralogist, and presented to the Minister of Mines show that the mineral output of the province for 1925 will be at. least approximately $60,000*000, or nearly one-fourth more than in ,1924 which was a record output. The value of/mineral production last year was $48,704,604, while for tbe first eight months of the present year the production has totalled approximately $41,000,- 000. The production of gold shows a large increase, and greater output is also seen in coal and zinc, while smelter activity is evidenced by a big increase in the outpufof coke. Work has resumed at the D. A. in Deadwood camp. The compressor and drills are working smoothly and good progress is being made on the long cross-cut tunnel. A small crew is busy on the Gold Pick north-west of Greenwood.

It was very largely attended and the casket was covered with many beautiful flowers. Intermon t' took place in Rock Greek cemetery. The pallbearers were: F. Smyrl, G. Pitman, F. Burdick, T. Boyo, C.

Variable Weather In Canada Is Good For Agriculture While walking through the streets of a littlo town in Western Ontario last sunimer, I happened to notice in the window of tho Jocal newspaper oflice the following verse printed in large-letters: "As a rule a man's a fool When it's hot, he wants it cool; When it's cool he wants it hot, v Always wanting what it's not." 1 could not help thinking that perhaps there was more truth than poetry in this little selection. Going from one part of our Dominion to another, I hear people so often express dissatisfaction with iheir own- particular part of tho country, principally because of some objectionable feature of the weather at some season or other during tho year. Moro often than not, in the districts where cold weather stays with'us longer-(ban we think it should, our people wish they lived in California where all is rosy and weather conditions supposed to be perfect. It is.true that in certain seasons lhe greater part of the settled valleys of California enjoy a splendid climate, but thc same can be said of almost any part of our Dominion. A few favored coast sections of California, where citrus fruits do not thrive, seem to have a desirable living temperature the greater part of the year, but theso sections arc very small compared with the remaining part of the st.ato. The point that I wish to make, is that few sections of the world where agriculture is of ecouomic importance have desirable" climates at all seasons of the year. We folks who, because of our occupation or financial circumstances, seem destined to spend all file year in our own home community, will likely find that balancing the agreeable against the disagreeable, our own climate is fairly good after all. .

' ���\ Mew Timepiece Being Tested at London's Terminal Stations A new typo of clock which bas a square dial and no hands is being tested at London termlual stations. It has already been installed at ���'Metro" stations in Paris. At Waterloo the novelty of a clock which tells the time simply by figures on two small panels Instead of by hands pointing to. the numerals on a round dial, has drawn crowds. As each minute passes, a new panel is let down automatically,- and in'the same way the hours aro changed. The clock, which is electrically driven ,is controlled by a master clock ol" the ordinary type. Sir. John Baeiy who is interested in the experiments, said to a press representative: "It is much easier to read the figures than the'������hands at a distance, and for that reason the timepiece is eminently suited to railway stations. - Another advantage Is that the time appears,, on-tho new clock just as it doas in the timetables: Thus, at. 12.30, all thai, you see is the figures "32-307' Brothers Receive Similar Wounds Hoping Prince Will Revive Bntish Trade Manufacturers Believe Trip to South America Will Help Business vWith the near return of ihe Prince of Wales i.-i England, British manufacturers and business men are voicing hopes that, something good is coming to them from the Prince's ambassadorship to South America. They are lookiug to him for' some such slogan as ICing George's "Wake -up England" to galvanize drooping industry .here. Godfrey Ch.esinan, -secretary of manufacturers, representing 2,000 firms, referring to his expectation of a national appeal from the Prince, said: "Nothing but good could result from such a call which would bo welcomed by the workers and equally by lho employers. "Labor as -a.' whole has gre'SX respect for the Prince and should he make aii appeal his words likely would have great eff"cl with lho working people.

' Truth states that New Zealand's contribution to tho Imperial navy next year would be nine shillings per head. It quotes the New Zealand as saying: "It is our Job to do all that we can to keep tho renewal of cruisers up to date."

FREE TRADE IN EUROPE MIGHT MAINTAIN PEACE Washington. ��� Pointed suggestions. made by delegates to the Interparliamentary Union's conference that, the Washington Government again take the leadership in promoting reduction of world armaments, were answered by Representative Theodore Burton, of Ohio, in an address before, the closing session. Referring lo tho desire often expressed by the president for a new limitation of armaments conference, Mr. Burton said "various propositions looking toward the same ideal are being considered in various .European conferences, and it would be an intrusion for our president to ask foi a conference in Washington while these efforts are being made:" Ho made it clear later, however, that he was speaking on his own authority and wais net inspired from the White House to make the statement. The suggestion that a policy of free' trade in Europe would eliminate iu some extent cause for conflict between nations and would at, Uie same time greatly broaden the markets of al' European countries, was made by Andrew R. McMaster, of Montreal, M.P. for Brome, a member of the Canadian delegation. Canada's interest in such custom agreements, he-said was in tho development of ils loreign trade, particularly the marketing for wheat exports. Tho development of .such markets, lie said, was necessary lo th�� future welfare of the Dominion.

THE7LEDGE, GREENWOOD, BRITISH COLUMBIA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1925 <> I Here and There A party consisting of twelve Chinese students, from Hong Kong, and Peking arrived in Montreal recently to take up temporary positions in departments and shops of the Canadian Pacific Railway, in order to familiarize themselves with the rail-, way situation in Canada. They will remain a few months and then return to China to make practical use of the information they acquire. Among the notable- personages who arrived in Canada during tha first week in September from Europe were Princess Patricia, Sir Thomas and Lady Grattan, and the Earl and Countess of Mar and JCetlie, all of whom were on the Canadian Pacific steamship Mountroyal; James Oliver Curwood on the Empress of Scotland and Baroness Orczy on the Montnairn, of the same line. Calgary, Alberta. ��� The No. A Royalite well (Imperial), 'continues to amaze geologists. Its naptha production increased July to'546,135 gallons, 73 degrees Beaume, an increase of 25 barrels daily over the June production. The production continues to increase and the flow of gas at 20,000,000 cubic feet a day is being maintained. This flow will ���hortly be harnessed to supply Calgary. Preparations are under way for the holding in Montreal in June next year of the annual convention of the American Association of Railroad Superintendents. J. K. Savage, General Superintendent, Canadian Pacific, was elected chairman of the arrangements committee, and plans were made for the organization of a complete committee to go ahead with the business of making the convention a success. "'-.' A despatch from London state* that in the past three wreks more than 20,000 boxes of Quebec-made cheese have arrived and been sold in London at good prices, the quality, it is said, being of the best.; It is pointed out that if Quebec products are tp obtain the position they de-.. ce'rve here it is necessary to keep continuous supplies coming, in order to-make them known to the general ; public, rather than to make either isolated . or occasional speculative shipments'. * Along .this line, soma ,0,000 boxes of Quebec-made cheesa went forward from here to the Lon�� don rnarlist during the past week. Twelve British newspapermen rep- - resenting some of the most important dailies in Great Britain, are now.making a six weeks' tour of the country over Canadian Pacific lines. The party will travel from Halifax to the Pacific Coast taking in all the important industrial and scenic points of. the country. They will spend a day' at the Canadian National Exhibition at Toronto, and will visit the famous Bungalow Camps in Ontario, as well as the beauty spots in the, Rockies. They arrived at Quebec on August the 22nd, on ths Montclare, the object of the tour being "to correct in the minds of representative British journalists the err.oneous impressions recently made0 in England regarding Canada by certain sections of the press. :> SYNOPSIS OF y LAND ACT AMENDMENTS Under the herding, "The Inconsistencies of Men," C. B. Fletcher contributes tlie following interesting remarks on freight rates to the August "Railway Review": "Man's progress is measured by his adaptability to his surroundings and his opportunity to trade with his fellow men by exchanging products. Transportation is the essential instrumentality for trade, commerce or business of any kind. "The phenomenal prosperity of the United States today is the direct result of.the most efficient transportation facilities in the world ��� railroads. "Railroad transportation is worth ten times what it costs today to every person in this nation. Tho railroads haul your meat 500 miles for 36 cents a hundred pounds, you pay from 20 cents for cheap cuts to 60 cents for special cuts of meat or from 60 to ISO times the cost of transportation. "The railroads haul flour 400 miles for 13% cents a hundred, 7 pounds for one cent. You pay 10 cents a pound for bread or 70 times the cost of transportation. "You pay one dollar for a.meal'at a first class hotel on which the freight charges were less than two cents, including everything served, and the coal to cook it, and then tip the waiter ten cents or five times .what the railroad received for hauling it 400 miles or more. "The same man' who tips the waiter ten cents will go out and make a speech and complain of high freight rates which are not one-fifth pf the amount of his tip. "Consistency, thou art a jewel P PRE-EMPTION8 Vacant, unreserved, .... surveyed Crown lands may be pre-empted by British subjects over 18 years of age, and by aliens on declaring intention to become British subjects, r. condl- " tional upon residence, occupation, and improvement for agricultural purposes. -Full information concerning regulations regarding pre-emptions Is given in Bulletin No. 1, Land Series, "How to Pre-empt'Land," copies of wliich can be obtained free of charge by addressing the ' Department of Lands, Victoria, B.C., or to any Government Agent.

F^en the most thickly {���mi led rural districts ln Canada aro capable of sustaining a denser population through more intensified farming, while In Northern Outarlo and Quebec and in all four "Western Provinces there arc vast unpeopled areas. On the other hand, there up* some millions M.oro people iu tlie Uritish Isles than there arc avenues of employment open to them. The Uritish I'loveriimci-!

Nor, in the changed industrial conditions which have resulted froni the war, does there seem to be any possibility of a material improvement in this situation. Ju limes past Urn United States absorbed Jargo numbers of immigrants from thc I'.rilisli isles, but under its quota system ihe doors of tho big American republic are now practically closed.

RHEUMATIC PEOPLE CAN NOW FIND RELIEF By Driving the Poisonous Acid From the System Rheumatism attacks people when the blood is thin and watery, or charged with impurities, thus setting up in- llammatlon of the muscles and'joints. Cold, wet weather or sharp winds may start the pains, but the cause, is rooted in the blood aud-to get relief it must be treated through the blood. As a blood builder and nerve tonic Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are unsurpassed, and for that reason do "not fail to give relief to rheumatic sufferers when given a fair tri.il. Among the rheumatic sufferers who have proved the great value of this medicine is Mrs. Simeon J.
