"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 .

The rain a week ago helped a little, but the three large power wheels of the Cascade, Power & Light Co., Ltd., from which ordinarily at least 3,000 horse power can be had for industrial purposes, are now able to furnish not more than 2,500 horse power, while the Granby's own water power at the smelter dam, ordinarily not large, is reduced not a little. At present Cascade power is used to operate the Granby mines and smelter, the Snowshoe hoist, the Rawhide compressor, and to light Cascade, Grand Forks, Greenwood and Phoenix. A little Bonnington power is used to operate the converter at the B. C. Copper Co.'s smelter at Greenwood, and this company will use Bonnington power entirely when the smelter is in blast again, as the Cascade people had no surplus to contract for. While the 6o,-ooo-volt lines of the B. C. Distributing and Construction Co. from Bonnington have been built into the Boundary, and the several sub-stations erected, the installation of the additional plant at Bonnington Falls is not yet complete and will not be for some little time, at least. All that this company can do is to furnish the comparitively small amount of surplus power which it has at its old plant at Bonnington, which will help some but will not go far. As it is now, the Granby management is distributing its use of the power available in every way possible lo produce lhe most efficiency, using steam where available, turning about shifts so as to have the power for drills when not needed otherwise, etc. Yet the shortage is seriously felt. The Cascade people ,?re doing everything they can to assist, but they cannot do much till heavy and extended rains arrive to increase the efficiency of their hydroelectric plant, located 13 miles below Grand Forks on Kettle river. And in the meantime, there will be an increased-demand for power from ali the large Boundary mining concerns this fall with the enlargements now under way..

True, it is a maxim constantly employed to state a principle, but it is neither stale nor worn thread-bare. This is because there is much force in the principle so stated. Unification is the trend of the age. Unification of particles, like the joining of the strands of a rope or cable, results ia an accretion of strength. These simple facts are so well recognized in these times, that unionism is the goal toward which men are moving. The toiling masses are seizing upon this principle of unification, or, in other I words, organization, for the purpose of ., being the better prepared to overcome opposing forces. So it is with the captains of industry, so it is with political leaders, so it is all along the line of human progress and achievement. The foregoing is simply a plain statement of common and universally \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD accepted facts. Now, let us look at a 7 particular phase or element in the processes of unification\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDTHK PRESS. and space to that interest ihan to any other. Its editor will not, it is believed, be accused of being egotistical or given to braggadocio, if lie lays claim to having on the paid subscription list of the Pioneer hundreds of the wealthiest mining investors and promoters in this and other countries. To them and the capitalists everywhere it is continually setting forth the mineral wealth of the Boundary country, and the marvelous productivity of its operating mines, which is attracting attention from all directions, and which is evidenced by the copying from its col- umins by the mining press everywhere, especially in financial centers, and the frequency with which noted investors and eminent metallurgists visit and carefully inspect mining properties hereabouts. In this connection it may be truthfully stated that the most effective and productive of good results to the mining interests of the Boundary of any I of. its efforts in the line of publicity, has been the publication and broadcast distribution of the Pioneer Annual Special. Believing this, and that there will be a greater demand for it this year than on any former occasion, we shall shortly begin preparations for issuing the Special for 1906, and shall undertake it more confident of support than formerly, because of past successes. There is more reason for its publication now than ever before, and if it has been useful in the past it will be infinitely more so in the futurer. Last Sunday, September 1 dth, James J. Hill, president of the Great Northern Railway, was 6S years of age, and he probably jumped from his lied as fresh as any one of his io,oco employees on his 20,000 miles of roads. Mr. Hill was born of hardy Scotch- Irish ancestry near Guelph, Wellington county, Ontario, September 16, 1S3S. At fifteen he l-.ft Guelph to make his way in what was then the west\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDSt. Paul and Minneapolis \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDand has since made his home there. After experience as shipping clerk and in other positions on a steamboat line, he became agent of the Pacific & St. Paul railway, with some miles of rusty track and $33,000,000 indebtedness. He gradually worked himself up in the railway world, each step showing the genius of the man for system and organization, till he became president of the Great Northern railway, and con trolled the Northern Pacific and Burl ington systems, all which are payint large profits to the owners, and in very- many ways setting an example that is followed by other lines. Preaching the doctrine of low grades, heavy power, large capacity'carsand long trainloads, when tht.se things seemed visionary to others, Mr. Hill's lines have created business wherever they penetrated. He is ever seeking to haul larger tonnage at lower rates than competitors and yet leave a profit for himself. He is a remarkable man in many ways, and the west feels his impress, and will feel it for decades to come. o~~- B. C MINING Next Sunday and thereafter, all railroads entering Spokane will give a fare and a third round -trip rate to the Spokane exposition, which opens Monday with racing in the afternoon and a carnival parade, festival procession, fancy dress ball and general high jinks in the evening, all participated in by that new and Mystic Order of E-Nak- Ops. This one and a third rate is good any day, with return privilege any day. Besides this, a special one fare for the round trip, ticket is sold from all points on Monday, good to return any time in the two weeks. About October 15th the Le Roi smelter at Northport is expected to be in blast again. Rossland ore shipments last week were 7.043 tons, making 227,314 tons for this,year. At the Center Star, Rossland, preparations are being made for the installation of the largest hoist in Canada. The Spokane and Trinket claims, at Ainsworth, that were not worked for ten years, are now in active operation, and have seven cars of ore ready for shipment. Spokane people are the owners. Total ore shipments from the mines of Yale and Kootenay mining districts last week, were 33,353 tons, 23,000 tons of which were from Yale (Boundary) mines. Total to date for the year is 1,164,716. Enlargements are under way at the Trail smelter, so that about 2,000 tons of copper ore can be handled daily. This is due to the successful operation of the giant- copper furnace which was blown in about three weeks ago. Nothing is more condusive to suc- sess in any undertaking, public or private, than favorable public sentiment. In the unification of public sentiment for or against any individual or corporate effort, there is no force more potent than the press. All leaders, in whatsoever realm of effort, realize this fact. Promoters of every shade, commenda ble and condemnable, in seeking public favor, first seek the good will of the types which speak to millions of readers through the public press, well- knowing their potency. - No printed publication is so insignificant as to be devoid of influence over its readers.

The solution of this is to be looked for, partly at least, through the John R. Greenfield, of Vancouver, was a caller at the Pioneer office last Saturday, and discussed the mail service in this part of the province. We were pleased that he happened in at that particular time, so that he could see the method of making up the mail from' this office, as the Pioneer has had the occasion mors than once to criticise the service in the Boundary. Mr. Greenfield had no criticisms whatever to make of the Pioneer's system, but marvelled thai such antics could happen in the transportation of mails in the Boundary as we have recorded in the past. Latterly the service has been somewhat belter, though the service between Phoenix and Greenwood will not be materially improved tiil the C. P.

The time was when anything worth while in the mining line in British Columbia was supposed to center around Rossland, and the heading, as above, was quite appropriate then. But times change, and so do places, and one of the localities that has changed for the better is the Boundary, which has forged forward and outdistanced all of the districts in the mining parts of the province. If the editor of the sturdy, slow, News-Advertiser wishes to do the thing right, he should print the ore tonnage from Phoenix weekly, and give it the same caption. He would be sticking to facts, then, and not ancient history. For some little time past. President Roosevelt has been brushing up his \"Big Stick,\" and now he has brought it out into full view once more. If those quarrelsome Cubans do not take note of this fact, and resolve to be good again, Teddy will bring the stick into play. If he does, there is good reason for believing that the time for the autonomy of Cuba has passed. Those who attended the Nelson fair this week, today being the closing day, are not slow to say that the exhibits there were excellent and well arranged, and that the fair was a great success in aimost every way. Each year more interest is being taken in this fair, and it is becoming one of the important fall events of the province. The Boundary ore exhibit, in charge of G. W. Cornish, of Greenwood, attracted a| great deal of attention, and from many who knew but little of this section. It was undoubtedly an excellent advertis- ment of the Boundary.

It is not too much to say that the credit of turning sceptics into believers belongs to the Granby Consolidated Co., which has for some time joined the big dividend payers, and has in this way handed out the most satisfactory proof of all of having solved problems which metallurgists generally regarded as almost unsolvable. Probably the first very prominent notice which these great ore bodies received followed the visit of Dr. I.e- doux to Phoenix in 1903. This eminent authority on copper mining wrote at length on the marvelous deposits which form the group of mines owned by the Granby company, and prophesied great things of the district. Later on 'Honest John\" Stanton, the father of the American copper industry, visited the camp, and he, too, after a brief inspection, pronounced the Granby properties as the greatest body of sulphide ore of which he knew. Put though both these authorities spoke freely of the character of the mineralization, neither of them made so exhaustive an examination as that made at a later date by W. L. Austin, a metallurgist and geologist, trained at the great university of Heidelberg, and trained further in the wider field of practical research among the big mining countries of the world. It was in February, 1905, that at the request of some of the Granby directors Mr. Austin made his first visit to Phoenix, and he has just completed another examination which has served to confirm the accuracy of his former conclusions. Definition ol Granby Ores. \"These ores are really impregnations by vapors and mineral solution of lava- flows, tuffs and ash beds, formed by previous volcanic activity.\" This definition of the Granby ores may be regarded as the keynote of a highly interesting chat with the New York expert during which he unfolded the history of the Phoenix formations. \"On my first visit,\" said Mr. Austin, \"I could see that the whole character of the ore-bearing rocks was eruptive, the product of violent volcanic action, as was disclosed by the plastic nature of many of the specimens. The type was andesitic although much of the rock was so altered as to be unrecognizable with the unaided eye. I was by no means satisfied as to the exact nature ol many of the specimens, so sent a collection of samples, including practically all the various types, to Prof. J. F. Kemp, who occupies the chair of geology in Columbia university, New York city. The samples were thin- sectioned and the slides were investigated under the microscope, a method of analysis which literally discloses the nature of every crystal, and determines as clearly, or more so, the character ol the rocks under inspection, as though they were analyzed chemically in the usual way.\" Not Altered Limestone. Knowing that the statement had been made fiom somewhat high quarters that a considerable lot of altered lime stone existed throughout the camp, Mr. Austin was asked as to this point. \"No, the Granby ore bodies are not altered limestone,\" was the reply. \"I speak now as to the general formation Here and there are pockets of limestone scattered through the deposit, but these are of a wholly secondary importance, and their presence may be explained as follows : In the upheaval which took place ages ago, portions of the original formation were evidently broken off, and these are found today as islands surrounded by the lava tlows or imbedded in the tuffs and ashes, limestone islands have been d to marble, and have in some instances been more or less impregnated with copper. One such example is in the 300 foot level of the Old Ironsides. Of course, ihe liniespar which subsequently appeared in solution is a different matter; I am speaking now 1 of the rocks themselves.\" \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD'What about the proportion of lava Prol,llSt- i,^\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD ... \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD,\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD , ,, ... '-,.. ' I lovers of fast horses, some to ashes, Mr. Austin? \"No ratio can be given. This particular volcanic outburst was largely ex plosive in character. As you know, some volcanic cones are built up by a| series of explosive ejections and mud j Hows, others by lava. Wo saw an example of the explosive type at Mt. Pelee, which also sent forth huge mud Hows. These latter will in the course of time form tuffs. The lava Hows and ash beds on Phoenix mountain were later impregnated with mineral, forcer! into them by intense pressure and probably under great heat. Such is the probable genesis of the Granby ores.\" It lias .So Parallel. I liese \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDhange of speculation. The magna, or reservoir of molten material to which these rocks on the Granby mines owe their origin, was of a dioriiic character, No, I know of no parallel case, outside ol the Boundary, to the conditions obtaining at Phoenix.\" Continuing Mr. Austin pointed out that some of the gases contained iron in combination with some element or elements which permitted the deposition of the metal in the form of spec- ularite (hematite or oxide of iron), some of the solutions contained lime as carbonate; as to the copper it was difficult to say whether it came in gaseous form or in solution. Self-Fluxing Character. \"The peculiar feature of the occurrence i.s, of course, the sell-fluxing character of the ote, a condition which has largely influenced the commercial success attending their treatment. The silica contained in the eruptive is low (less, for instance, than in the case of granite), then the specularite mixed through the mass, and the lime, existing as spar, all assists in making a very satisfactory smelting mixture.\" \"What about the distribution of the sulphur?\" \"Well, as to the sulphur, it probably came in with the other elements constituting the ore. At what special temperature or distance below the earth's surface there is a dissociation of the elements, I couldn't say. Sulphur, copper, and iron have a strong affinity for each other, and appear associated in the Granby ore as chalcopyrite. The temperature of the earth's interior is something we cannot experiment with, and is probably far beyond that of the electric arc. There is a whole lot of theory about these things,\" and as he made the remark a smile lit up the eminent expert's face, and he quoted happily, and very appositely, Mark Twain's saying that geology is a very fascinating science because it gives you \"an enormous return of conjecture from a small investment of fact.\" Asked as to whether the conditions at Phoenix would pretty much apply to the Boundary country generally, Mr. Austin replied that \"this is precisely where 'conjecture' would come in.\" He was not prepared to make a statement abont sections which he had not personally examined, but as to the Granby properties he was positive in regard to his facts. Turning more to the commercial side, questions relating to the development work, to the extent of the ore bodies and so on, were put to Mr. Austin and were answered with the courtesy, desire for conservatism of statement, and lucidity of utterance which has characterized all his remarks. New Ore Bodies Added. \"Since my last visit there have been several new ore bodies added to those already known to exist, discovered largely by means of the diamond drill, the irregular nature of the deposits providing a good field for drill work, and as the company has taken out about a million tons of ore since I was here in February, 1905, no man is justified in fixing any definite limit to these mines. The conditions are practically the same throughout the ore bodies. The magnetite, it is true, does not appear to go down in this particu lar case, but hematite and iron pyrites obtain all through, and speaking generally, the grade of the ore is holding at depth everywhere. As to the manner in which the work is carried out, it is admirable. The system of pillaring, viz , leaving pillars and arches of ore for supports instead of timber, has been beautifully worked out. and no doubt timbering would have seriously- diminished profits. The management has met various problems as they arose in a practical and scientific way, and handled them economically and well. In fact, the success of the Granby has b:en very largely due to good management.\" M. Burrki.i.. MR. OZIAL ROUNDS. A Resident of Welland Finds Relief in Pe-ru-na. SUFFERED 15 YEARS.
