description: The Miner was published in Nelson, in the Central Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia. The Miner was established by John Houston, an outspoken journalist who would later embark on a successful political career, which included four terms as the mayor of Nelson and two terms in the provincial legislature. After leaving the Miner in the summer of 1892, Houston established the Tribune to compete with his former paper. The Miner was published by The Miner Printing and Publishing Company, and the paper's longest-serving editor was D. J. Beaton. The Miner was published under two variant titles, the Nelson Weekly Miner and the Weekly Miner. In 1902, the paper was sold to F. J. Deane, who changed the title to the Weekly News.

The auction sale of government, lots last Saturday continues to furnish the chief topic of conversation in the town. Tt is safe to say that no single move; on the part of the government has created more local dissatisfaction. It is a dissatisfaction which can be borne very philosophically, even by the government, for one half of the complaints are urged from diametrically opposite reasons from the remaining half. Complaints of such a nature, that to please both parties would have beeri impossible.
