At that time the Botind.il)' was a term incognita, as it were, to the average prospector, and those who weie limiting the fickle goddess in this desolate section at that tune weie indeed few la1- and between. There was nothing to speak of in the way oi a settlement between Rock Geek and Marcus. All the w.iy between it was practically a luckless wilderness. KimLiud was unknown, the Slocan had yet to be discovered and hnve and get ovei its fai-reaching boom, and in short mining in Southern lirmsli Columbia was yet most decidedly in its uifanc). In settled towns, in fact, the man who dabbled much in mines was apt to be looked upon with suspicion by his bankers and the commercial world generally. But the sun was just as hot in July 1891, as it is today, 01 at least the dred band of prospectors who staked the Old Iionsides and Knob Hill on that date thought so. There was scarcely a trai1 in the country except the old Dewdney nail, and the fust comers followed the ndges and bln/.ed then way through tbe forest primeval. U bat are now the best and most thought of claims in l'hoenix camp were staked within a lew days ol each other. On the 21st Matt Hottei and Henry White staked the Knob Hill and Old Iionsides, and even then they oid not think so very mucb of the properties. The suiiace showings were immense, but, as now, the values were not high. A lew days later (ieorge \V. Rum- beigei, now our w01 thy mayor, to gcther-wrth-J ot Taj tor, wandered up and down these well timbeied hillsides and finally de< ided to stake the Brooklyn in company with Steve Man- gott. This was on July 31st. The Stemwinder was located on July 25th by James Atwood and James Scho- field. Bob Densler located the War liagie and what is now the Idaho, and Mr. Rumberger relocated the laitei alter it had been abandoned. A month later Messis. Rumbeigei, l'a\- loi and Manjiott located the ground now i_.illed the Monaich, Rawhide and Gold Drop, but let them run out, alter which they were located undei theii present titles. It was no joke to go prospecting in those days, w hen supplies had to be packed ^60 or 70 miles trom Marcus,' lording the Kettle mei in torn aangei- 011s places on the way Privations were many, and Iiisiiiies could not be had at any price, l'ut these haidy pioneers did not laitei. (Jeo Rumbeigei had (ome trom Pennsylvania, had stopped in Kansas and Colorado, then m Idaho, and tinalh thiew in his lotwhete the city of Phoenix now stands. Times weie haid then, and it was a slow and tedious job to show- up the piopeities that had been located. Mi. Rumbergei tor one or two winteis worked in the Coeur d'AIene mines, and his pa 1 Piers did the assessment on the liiookljn and Que. It was a mighty good thing 101 Phoenix and the Boundary when this oct lined, although but (cw realized it at the time. Mr. CJiaves, however, has never swerved lioni the beginning, and nas gradually increased his syndicate's holdings till they now own leu of the best propeities in the Houndaiy in this camp, all in pne huge block. IIpv, they have wtfrked them to a most successful issue, notwithstanding that the best mining expeits in the west turned them down as worthless on account of their low grade, is now well known to the public. Early in 1899 the Dominion Copper Co. was lot med with a capital ot five millions, luicked/Jiy several of the stlongest financeis iiv'the Dominion of Canada. They took over the Hiook- lyn, Idaho, Stemwinder, Rawhide,etc., and are now successfully operating them under the management of James Hieen. i The story ol the,( Snow shoe, Wai Kagle, eu ., is similai j lo that of the othei propeities mentioned.

T. Smith 'The , Mothei Lode in Deadwood camp, was staked tbe same year that the first location was made in Phoenix. In 1894 the town.of Giand Foiks was stalled and the nextspiing Robeit Wood platted the townsite of Greenwood.

Latter Day Activity. 'The real giowth of Phoenix dates scaicelv two )eais ago. In June, 189S, a petition was sent lo theauthoi- lties tor the location ot a postoflice to be called Uiooklyu, but as that title was preempted by t'je-iaibvay boom town on Lower \irow lake—long since dcseited and the home of buds—the name was changed to Phoenix. The stage and mail unite went tight thiougb the town, and the postofifice was established in Octobei, 1898. with Thomas Roderick as^iosun.istei, he being succeeded a yeai latei by the present in cumbent, D.J. Matheson. t|ie s,)0,tmj During the lollowmg spring the |eiist j.00-' business world seemed to realize that Phoenix was destined to be one of the most impoitanl mining camps in Hiiush Columbia, and as this nnpres sion giew, the place grew also, lhat summer the first poition ot the town was platted lot J li McArthui on the New York mineial daim. In Sep tember ot the same )eai G W. Rumberger platted the suilaic ot the Cimeion mineial c laim, and tne lots weie soon sold.

Airangements for celebrating Laboi Day in the chief mining town of the Houndary aie now in an advanced condition, and eveiything points to the event being one long to be rcmetn- cmbeicd in this section. Last Monday evening there wns n meeting fit" the membeis of the general committee sit the school house, and theie was a large attendance. Chairman Rumbeiger presided, and Secre- laiy I'ayloi wasaUoon hand. Afiei consideiable discussion it was decided to add horse lacing to the programme, and theie will be at least three events of this kind. Theie are some pietty swift animals ahcady in the boundary, and it is expected that theie will be a numbei of otheis from the outside. 'The pi ogiamine committee had done much baid work in arranging the different events and the amounts ot the prices to be aw aided lot each, and the report along this line was most satisfat loiy. 'The press committee oidered the' laige posters to be gotten out by the Pioneer and also oidered envelopes, bearing the adveitisement of the cele bration, wlwh will be distnbuted fiee to every business man 111 the city, foi use dunng this month.

Townsite E. W. Company Formed, With Monk as Secretary. The little town of Russell, jn Perry county, Wash., just across the bound- .11 y line liom Cascade, experienced a mild boom at the time of the Columbia tk Western railway construction into the Boundary^ Hut its importance was but fleeting at the time, and lor a year 01 two it has scarcely been known on tbe face of the map. Now, however, things aie changed, and it begins to look as though Russell might be an impoitanl point. K. W. Menk, of the fiim of McArthur & Monk, about a month ago secuied an option'on the townsite, 320 a< res, and a tew days ago succeeded in interesting several capitalists in the townsite, with the icsiilt that a company is now being incoiporated to push the place. Col. W. N. Drayton, the V., V. and li, railway townsite man, is inieiested, as is also lidgai Chailes, the light ol way agent ef the same railway. Mr. Monk is secretary ol the company. Beautifully siuiated on the hanks of the Kettle nvei, the town abeady lias thiee stoics, thiee hotels, a good lestaurant, and the company is thinking alread) ot putting up a hotel. A sawmill is also pxpected to be located theie in the ncai future, and a new store with a $10,000 stock of merchandise will soon be leady lor busi ness. Mr. Monk returned from a visit to Russell last Wednesday, went back the next dav, and expects to make his headquaiters there. He thinks that the new iailway, now building into the boundary light through the town, will make Russell a divisional point. At any late the plate will have a custom bouse and laihvay touiidhouses. One rf the finest smelter sites along the boundaiy line is located theie also In addition to this the town is sur lounded with some of the most promising mining piospects to be fouiid in that section, piominent among which aie the Mountain View and Russell, both ol whidi have unusually excellent coppei ledges. A numlici ol" Phoenix people are inteiested in the townsite, among them being Iia Black, V. Monnier, Hugh McGuire, W. L.

No one who knows what the original settleis passed tliiough in those da)s thinks that the good lortune that l.itei came to them, or some of them, was any too good. Many a time did our present mayor and his partners loot it to Marcus U> secure supplies oir credit at the store of the late Marcus Oppenheimer, and then trudge back over hills and dales to this camp. It need hardly be said that, nothing more than .assessment work was done in those times. Better Times Were In Store. Thus the pioneers got along as best they might, in those lust five or six years. 1). C. Corbin had said that he would build a branch of his railway- . lip the Kettle rive.i—this same railway . that is only now, ten years later, being constructed, Four 01 five years ago things began to brighten somewhat. The capitalist, satiated in Rossland, or the Slocan, or entirely new to tlie district and country, began to be attracted by the stories of the tremendous ledges of gold and copper bearing rock that had somehow filtered out. About five years ago Messrs. Far- rell and Midgeon, wealthy men from the old town of Ansonia, Conn., secured the Stemwinder,butthey soon sold their interest in this property and in the Montezuma, Standard and Phoenix to McKenzie, Mann & Co. This was a starter. In 1890 Jay P. Graves became interested in the Old Ironsides, Knob Hill and other claims, and in turn interested S. H. C. Miner, of Granby, the 'ots weie snapped up. Capitalists travelled man) miles foi theoppoi- tunity to buv and were disappointed because there weie not enough busi ness lots to go .iiound I'he louith survey ' was that of the Dominion Copper Co.'s addition, a couple ot months ago, and it is well known that this also ■w.is successful The fust hotel hotel was built in ihe winter of 1895 b) 1'ied GialT. It is located almost directly opposite to the fit st log shack built in the camp, In Geoige Rnmneigci, which is still standing. In the spring of 1S99 the Old Ironsides hotel was built, and was the fust of a series of extensive improvements by the Miner-Graves syndicate, which are still under way. The Wynkoop- Stephens Trading Co., Ltd., was started about the same time, and the Pioneer war. first published in November, 1899. Then business bouses and hotels followed thick and fast, up to the present time, and they are still coming. What will be tlie record for the next ten years in this camp can only be conjectured, but there are'■ many who think it will be even moretemarkable than the decade just passed into history.

Kempt, of the Knob Hill paid a visit to Grand Forks this The Granby smelter is not the only works to he enlarged in the Boundary, as will be noted from the following sent out from Greenwood this week: The british Columbia Coppei Co., Ltd., of New York, owning the Mother Lode mine, has ordeicd another blast furnace for its smelter at Greenwood. The new furnace will be similar in construction to the one now in operation and which has had an uiiinteirupted and very successful run ever since it was first blown in, on Febiuary 18 of the current year. It is a stac'< f'lr- nace, the down take going from'12 feet above the feed floor up some 15 feet and then down into the big main dust flue. The size of the furncoe is 42 inches wide by 150 inches long, inside dimensions at tuyeres, of which there are 10 at each side, of 3 inches diameter. The Allis Chalmers company (successois to the E. P. Allis Co., who manufactured the first furnace), of Milwaukee, Wis., aie building the new furnace, the construction ol which will take about 60 days. Allowing foi time that will be occupied in delivery at Gieenwood, and in construction, it will be between three and four months before the new furnace will be ready foi operation. There is very little preliminaiy woik to be done at the smelter, provision having been made at the fust foi two mote furnaces. 'I'he steel furnace house will have to be cnlaiged, but the floor and the dust flue are leady for the putting in of the additional smelting facilities the new furnace will afford. The engines and boilcis aie sufficiently laige to run three 01 foui furnaces, but another blower will have to be added to, provide foi the increasing treatment capacity of' the works. -The nominal ^aMscit^o^ihty^fuinace- in use has frequently been slated in print as 225 tons. What This Smelter Has Done. Its actual tonnage of 01 c treated since its blowing in is as follows: " February, (10 days) 3,016 tons, Maich, 10,519 tons (daily average); April, 11,- 322 tons (daily average, 377^ tons;; May, 11,830 tons (daily average, 381 yi tons); June, 11,206 tons (daih average ZThV- tons) Total tonnage to June 30th, 44,877 tons; daily aveiage tor four months ended June 30, neat ly 398 tons. By the time the new furnace shall nave been completed teady for work, the coinpan)'s Mother Lode mine will be in shape to double its output of ore. It is at the present time e.isil) keeping ahead of the lequneiiientsol the single furnace al the smeltei, and this without hoisting an\ oie at nights and woiking only six dajs.iweekat the mine. Further the No 7 mine, 111 Central camp, is now sending down about ioo tons ot ore a week and airangements aie n ,w complete toi the output of the 13 C mine—between 150 and 200 tons dail)—heietolore sent to the Piail smelter, being shipped to Greenwood.

Andthis j was no'.withstandini; tlie I'mt tliitt. he keeps posted by the weekly visits of Ihe Pioneer. He expected to see some improvement, hut nothing like the progress reallv made. Sir.

While he was away last year the stockjobbers n°t after these stocks in Montreal, a id as a result more than one of them were financially broken by the deal. As soon as the time is ripe the rest of tbe Miner-Graves holdings in White's camp and in Rossland would be combined in one large-company and another smelter built at i-rraud Forks. 13 Mm* P\-\ H\'<t' \ "•&"" >1 ■•* :?,Ti 'I ■ ''r'li ? , if- .I1' 1 1 X' x • "If "" T "~- ■>" • -r -it-— ™- . • » *■ f »Vi ?■ * *■ t ww 1 r^-q ■ ■ ■ iy i*f" * -^ ■» 11. ti. it -■•»l,t if 3 ^.

On another page will be found the gist of the memorial recently sent to the Dominion government by a few of the mine managers, who have held a num ber of secret sessions at Nelson in the last few months. It is safe to assert- that if these same managers had accepted the conditions as presented and put the same energy into working their respective properties, that they have in getting up petitions, the stockholders would be far ahead in the deal. There is little chance of the last eiiort accomplishing anything, WHAT THrEDITOpFsAV.

The*new title of the King, which declares him to be "ol the United Kingdom of Gieat Hiitain and Ireland and of British Dominion beyond the Sea, King/'etc.', etc., is veiy satisfactory.

This company is the Granby Co., the 'mines of which'are located and are be- *' ing steadily "operated here in Bhoenix. i The1-, stock of this concern is today worth" more than <when the present owners, acquired it, many times over, f-and some of the buyers could unload at a profit of from 400 ,to 7oo*per "��� cent. A few have done so. >0n the other hand it is asserted by one who claims to be in a position to know, that at least $8,000,000 of Montreal capital has been sunk in mining schemes in this province.1' This has been,"done laigely, not because the properties wera worthless, but because, instead of securing the best talent available and going ou with the business of mining in a business like mangier, brokers have played battledore and shuttlecock with the stock, in addition to which the promotors have paid hundreds of thousands of dollars ,v to new men to learn the business of mining. .-, With the Granby Co. things have been different, so much bo lhat Eng- ilish* journals are begihning to com- -. ment favorably in regaid to the company, its methods of conducting business and its bright prospects. The record of the Miner-Graves syndicate, lh6 jMomoters of the Granby Co, has been remarkable in the past, and its fnture bids fair to be no less remarkable. Just why the government is surveying for a railway pass through the Hope mountains,- no one seems to know.* The'railway that builds "from Kootenay tcthe coast will do its own surveying,; inv any event, and the government is not likely, just now^ to go into the railway business!" , The Spokesman-Review asserts that F. August Heinze has sold the Rossland (Miner, and others state that Bernard McDonald is the new power behind the throne. Mr. Heinze's income is said to be 40 cents per minute, the year round, "and he has no further use for daily papers in these parts.' * The Victoria Post, edited by Mrs. James Anderson, is decidedly bright and bfeezy, and is "forninst" the government and the C. P. R. But it does believe in the V., V. and <E. railway, and it is not slow in making its belief known.

Admitting that the.mining laws of British Columbia, are not by any means perfect; have they inflicted the untold injury to the province done by the rottennese and robbery of the' late high-class promoters?; The present strike in the Rossland camp is due largely to the desire of the men managing over capitalized properties to make the labor unions the scapegoats for their own sins. "This is a phase ol the 'difficulty' which should be fully understood ,be- foie any one attempts to pass upon the prospective merits of the to the labor-dispute-in the Rossland, camp. It is not solely a question' of wages. It cannot, be because the advance demanded -by. the muckers in the Le Roi would not amount - iii a year's operation'to over ;��":,,000, and the owners of the Le Roi aie supposed to have over $15,000,000 worth of ore in sight in their property, which only requires the labor of the miners to make it marketable. Mining companies, when they have $15,000,000 worth of ore in sight do not usually abandon it simply because ,��5,000 have been added to the cost of of the property's working per annum.'''

Title | The Phoenix Pioneer |
Alternate Title | [The Phoenix Pioneer and Boundary Mining Journal] |
Publisher | Phoenix, B.C. : Pioneer Publishing Co. |
Date Issued | 1901-08-03 |
Description | Devoted to the interests of the Boundary Mining District. The Phoenix Pioneer was published in Phoenix, in the Kootenay Boundary region of southern British Columbia, and ran from April 1898 to May 1916. The Pioneer was published by the Pioneer Publishing Company, which was managed by W. B. Wilcox (from 1899-1908) and Thomas Alfred Love (from 1908-1911). On August 12th, 1910, the headquarters of the Pioneer burned down, together with a large portion of the town of Phoenix itself, and the paper consequently suffered serious financial difficulties. On April 11th, 1911, the Pioneer was sold to Gilbert Kay, who published and edited the paper until May 1916. The paper was published under a variant title, the Phoenix Pioneer and Boundary Mining Journal, both from 1903-1910 and from 1911-1912. |
