Does the evaporation in the evaporation column influence the total pressure?

evaporation as such influence on the total pressure. evaporation occurs when the total pressure is greater than the surface molecules vapour pressure. as the rate of evaporation increases , more vapour will be there at the top, and then the new total pressure will become the sum of the earlier total pressure and vapour pressure of the vapour evaporated. hence total pressure increases.............

Why the relative lowering of vapour pressure is independent of temperature?

Relative lowering of vapour pressure is function of pressure of pure liquid and pressure of solutions when you increase temperature both the values increase and compensate the increase value, According to the Raoult's law, Psolvent = Xsolvent Po where Psolvent is the vapour pressure of the liquid solution, Xsolvent is its mole fraction in the solution and Po is the pure vapour pressure.

Does vapour pressure include the partial pressure of water vapour in the atmosphere during boiling process?

The partial pressure of water (vapor) is included in the total pressure of the atmosphere (air) when boiling.

What would have more vapour pressure pure ice or sweet ice?

Both will have same vapour pressure as salt{NACL} would get trapped in ice and in solid iced state get seprated from pure ice crystals. so in case melting of ice in soln state pure water will have more vapour pressure but in solid state both will have same vapour pressure.
