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.

Limited.\nThe property, which, is located 30 miles\neast of l'hoenix, is producing rich copper ore, with values in gold and stiver.\nMr. Dempster suites the clean ore\ndumps are a veiy fine sight and believes it is as line ore as has ever been\nmined i i the piovince. The results\nof some 30 assays of these dumps had\ngiven an average of 5.3 per cent, copper and $4.20 gold. A very careful\naverage taken through the face of the\nslope last week gave a result of 7.5\nper cent., copper apart from gold and\nsilver values. Another sample from\nan accumulated pile of ore during the\nprevious two days showed 10 per cent,\noopperin addition to values in gold\nand silver. \u25a0\u25a0.\u25a0\u2022\u25a0.'.\n1-ieore in the stopewas at present,\ncontinued Mr. Dempster, six feetJiin\nwidth with a large body of lower gride-\nore, b t of commercial value alongside.\nThis latter body has been crosscut for\nnearly 30 feet, all in ore, the values\nranging from $5 to $15 in copper and\ngold. ..This crosscut was now being\ndriven with a view to encountering the\nboundary or hanging wall.\nAt various points in the tunnel run\nin for nearly 600 feet on the vein,\n\\alues have been obtained of 5 per\ncent, copper and as high as $18 and\neven^$2_,in gold. \u25a0'; To get a true knowledge of this huge deposit crosscuts at\nfrequent intervals will be, immediately\nlun. The showing at the ' glory hole,\nwhere the rich sulphides come right to\nthe surface, is a sight worth seeing, said\nMr. Dempster.\n'I he new kitchen and dining.hall\/is\nnow complete and is up-to-date \"in\nevery particular, more nearly resembling the accommodation of a good\nhotel than a miuirig;camp, but it is in\nline w:th th. management's desire, to\ngive every comfort and convenience to\nits employees.

The bond\ncalls for a concentrating plant to be\nerected on the property , within four\nmonths and the payments extend over\ntwo years. Considerable development\nwork was done on the claim in 1907\nwhen the property was under bond to\na Phoenix syndicate. Ninety tons -of\nsample ore were shipped, with very\nsatisfactory results.\nThe recent firmness of British-Columbia Copper is due to the reopening\nof the mines, and the fact the company\nexpects to. enjoy a good .production\nwithin a comparatively short time,\ncomments a N.Y. financial paper. It\n\u2022has been stated that the company can\nlay copper in New York for 7.963c. a\npound, which includes mining, smelting,\ntransportation, selling commission and\nother expenses. Insiders have been\nkeeping the price down with a view to\nbuying a quantity of tbe stock, and\nsince Adolph Lewishon became a director* in the company, several new purchasers have appeared in the market.\nThe directors have planned to declare\na dividend when a surplus of somewhat over. $20.0,000 shall be collected,\nand this would have been done some\nwhile ago, if the strike and other difficulties in the price of the metal had\nnot prevented. .\n$U5 FOR BASEBALL  ;\nHERE ON LABOR DAY\nAttractive ^ Progr^inof Sports\nNow About Completed j\nA The various committees in charge\nof the big Miners'; Union, picnic tri\nPhoenix on Labor, Day are working\ndiligently tomake'ihe\"event the most\nsuccessful in the history of l'hoenix\nunion celebrations.

Notwithstanding\nthis, stockholders hold tenaciously to\ntheir shares and a price better than\npar is maintained, says the News\nBureau.\nThe bulk of Granby's shares is\nclosely held. Among those credited\nwith large holdings are J. J. Hill, the\nFirst National Bank of New York, the\nAmerican Metal and Nichols Copper\ncompanies, and H. L. Higginson, of\n[,ee'__ Higginson, New York.\nDuring 190S the company paid two\ndividends of $2 each, the last one in\nDecember. Expenditures have been\nmade for enlargement of the   smelting\nilant   to   a   capacity   of  40,000,00c\niiounds or more.\nThere  is   one disadvantage   which\nicts against Granby ranking with tin\n'mvest cost producers\u2014the distanct\n\u2022rom  eastern   refineries  and markets.\nhereby necessitating a long haul foi\nitfie company's product.\nFires In the Boundary\nBush fires have been raging in many\nparts of the interior and did considerable damage in the Bpundaryduring the\npast week.

Further destruction of property was pre-ented by a gang of men,1\nwho were repairing a bridge at that\npoint,\" taking prompt action and worked\nall night. The engine of a^passing\nfreight train was pressed into service\nand hauled water from a nearby supply,\nthus saving another pile of '5000 ties.\nFire raged in the vicinity Of the Bonanza\nmine on the North Fork, but the mine\nbuildings were kept safe.

Seventy-two votes were cast,\n42 for Mr. McKeown and 30 for Mr.\nMcintosh.\nMr. McKeown is one of the oldest\nproperty owners in Phoenix, is familiar\nwith the conditions of the city and th.\nrequirements of a civic official and\nshould make a decided acquisition to\nthe aldermanic board.\nThe bye-election was necessitated by\nthe declaring vacant of P.

Gazette.  HAYWOOD ADDRESSES  LARGE AUDIENCE  In Miners' Union Hall Sunday-  Evening  Last Sunday the large opera house  of Phoenix Miners' Union hall was  crowded with an audience to hear William D. Haywood, the ex-secretary of  the Western Federation of Miners.  A review of the W.F. of M. with an  account of the great trial at Boise was  the theme upon which Mr. Haywood  spoke for two hours. He made a  strong plea in favor of Socialism. He  did not ask his auditors, however, to  vote for the Socialist paity until they  were coiiviuct-d it was the best course  to pursue.  Mr  Haywood told how the Western  Federation of Miners was born in 1892  amid  much trials and   tribulal.ons  in  the Panhandle of Idaho, with  the idea  of having a strong organization  which  would include  all   the   mines   of  the  West.    Its main   objects   were to  in  ciease   wages,   shoit_n   the   hours  of  those engaged and to  generally  better  the condition of its members.    This  aroused   strong    opposition   of   mine  owneis,   and   war,   he   declared, had  been carried on vigorously against  the  organization.    He reviewed tbe strikes  in Idaho and Colorado, the calling out  of the troops and the turmoil  which  followed.    Then followed a recital  of  the arrest of Moyer, Pettibone and himself at Denver on a charge of muider  in which they were rushed into Idaho  without authority of  law.    The  irons,  the chains, the cells in which they were  confined were  vividly describfd.    He  paid his respects to   McPartland   and  Orchard, desciibing theni   as the Kirg  and Prince of detectives.    Detectives,  he asset ted, were the meanest men on  earth.  He thanked the unions everywhere  for raising the splendid fund to fight the  legal battle and prove their innocence  The meeting concluded with cheers for  the speaker.  \"  Watches  We have the Largest Stock of Watches in the Boundary, at prices  suitable  to  all   pocket   books.
