"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."@en . ""@en .

A. McKay & Sons\nThe Phoenix Dairy proprietors\nReport of Mounted Police '\n- The report of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police for >the year\n1912 was tabled in the House last\nweek by Mr. Borden.\nThe report shows that on Sept.\n30 the strength of the force consisted of 5.4, officers and 800^ noncommissioned officers and constables, an increase of four officers and\ntwenty men, compared with the\nforce for the year ending1 Sept. 30,\n1911. .\nDuring the year 13,391 cases\nwere entered by the police. Of\nthese 11,435 resulted in convictions;\n1307 were dismissed or withdrawn,\nand 249 were awaiting trial on\nSeptember 30th. Compared with\nthe previous year these figures\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2show an increase of 3973 cases and\nan increase of 360 convictions.\nThe cases include thirty murders,\nseventeen' in Alberta, twelve in\nSaskatchewan and one in the\nYukon; twenty-one cases of attempted murder, eight in Saskatchewan and thirteen in Alberta,\nand eight manslaughter cases, two\nin Sask. and six in Alberta. In 21\nof these cases convictions were\nsecured,'and on Sept. 30'seventeen\nremained to be tried. The report\nsets forth that in proportion to population there is little increase, and\nthe same result will be obtained if\ncompared with statistics for twelve\nyears. .,, ,\nAnother interesting comment in\nthe report is that the names of\" the\naccused indicate an undue propor\ntion of our alien population is re\nsponsible for these crimes of vio\nlence, and the west is paying- the\npenalty for drawing a large immigration from central Europe.\nCommissioner Perry refers to\nchanged conditions in Saskachewan\nand Alberta, which in his opinion\ncalls for a reconsideration of the\nagreement between the two provinces and the Dominion. He1\npoints out that under the agreement of 1906 a force of 250 men'\nwas to be kept in each province.;\nSince that ;:i;tinie, however^ the;\npopulation had enormously ihcreas-j\ned aritl^a-heavy strain was put on\nthe force in consequence.\nThe Overseas edition of the London Daily Mail of December 7, contained an article on British Colurii-\nbia'fruit WhtcK'aroused considerable\nindignant comment throughout the\nprovince. It stated, among other\nthings, that British Columbia fruit\nwas packed in barrels and that they\ncould-not compare*with the best\nof Tasmanian and Oregon orchards,\nand were fetching much less omthe\nmarket, and ended with* a criticism\nof the packing methods in vogue in\nthis prouince. ' *\nHowever, the eyes of the writer\nwere .quickly opened to the, mistakes\njhe had been making,\fonin the next\n{issue of the same paper a very complete and handsome retraction and\napology was offered, the' writer\n.taking every thing back, including\nthe.barrels, and said that, he had\nmistaken some Nova Scotia fruit\nfor that from British- Columbia,\nwhich \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 was, ' he had since learned,\nreaching the market excellently\npacked, in good condition and\nequal in quality to the best that\ncould be brought againstvit.\nThe thanks of the British Columbia fruit growers are due W.

There\nis now no difference between the\ncharges made at Vuncouuer, San\nFrancisco or Ottawa, and it is confidently predicted: that big shippers\nof gold from the Yukon, who have\nheretofore sent their metal to Ottawa or San Francisco, by registered\nmail, will now send it to Vancouver's assay office.

The only\nc|ifference between Ottawa and Vancouver was this one-eighth of one\nper cent.

McLeod. Manager Haskins took Mr. Rutherford over the ground and showed him the development work that bad been done thus far. A very careful examination was made, and it proved entirely favorable to the property. Though news in mining circles is naturally dull at this season of the year there is more or less development being carried on throughout the district. The feature, however, of this week is the resumption of development at Seven Mile on the Salmon river where a 100-foot tunnel contract has been let. to Richard Olsen, John Johnson and Ola Johnson, by T. H. Callaghan on behalf of l.ackie, Kirkpatrick and company, who bonded the claims from Dan Lindeborg. To take up the contract, the trio, who in association with George Hruggy own the Wire Gold group on the Marmont river, on which they have been working for some months, have suspended development there for the time being. Good reports continue to come down from Glacier creek of the driving of the 2,000- foot bore by the Portland Canal Tunnels Ltd., and more rapid progress is now being made as the drills are working in solid rock.

In his public capacity he has found, as doubtless the majority of other public men do, that such letters become a feature of his mail. He is not, however, seriously alarmed \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD by the threats aganist his life contained not only in the letters from Spokane but in others that have lately come to hand. \"And,\" remarked he, with a pleasant smile, \"1 am not loosing any sleep through dread of impending assassination.\" ft is understood that one of the recent letters received by the premier contained a threat that the writer would shortly cross from the mainland with a launch, with the object of blowing up the premier's residence. Although this communication is taken to have emanated with some crank, it has been handed to the detective department, by which such precautions as may seem necessary in the premises will be taken.

ML LAING, Proprietor Concentrates Why Zam - Buk is Best Cure for Skin Sores An illustration of the way in which Zam-Buk cures even the most serious and chronic cases of ulcers, eruptions and sores is provided by Mr. R. H. Barker, of Glencairn, Ont. He says: \"I would not have believed than any remedy could cure so quickly, and at the same time so effectively, as Zam- Buk cured me. \"My face became covered with a kind of rash, which itched and irritated. This rash then turned to sores, which discharged freely and began to spread. I first tried one thing and then another, but nothing seemed to do me any good, and the eruption got worse and worse, until my face was just covered with running sores. \"Apart from the pain (which was very bad), my face was such a terrible sight that I was not fit to go out. This was my state when someone advised me to try Zam-Buk. I got a supply, and marvellous as it may sound, within little under a month, every sore on my face was healed. I was so amazed that I have told the facts to several persons, and I have no objection to your stating my experience for the benefit of other sufferers.\" Zam-Buk is purely herbal in composition, and is the ideal balm for babies and young children, for whose tender skin coarse ointments are so dangerous. Zam-Buk is a sure cure for cold sores, chappe'rl hands, frost bite, blood poison, varicose sores, piles, scalp sores, ring worm, inflamed patches, babies' eruptions and chapped places, cuts, burns, bruises and skin injuries generally.
