[The Phoenix Pioneer]
BC Historical Newspapers
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.

Northey, who says the district 'has ample ore and conveniences to make a: great mining country. Writing from Olalla, Mr. Northey says: "In the daily papers I see numerous statements' concerning the sale or bonding of some copper properties in the northwest, more particularly.'in/the Portland Canal district on the north coast of British Columbia;. Here vast sums are being paid tor undeveloped mineral claims situated somewhere in the neighborhood of a rich strike.' AH this reminds me of the Rossland boom ��f *95i '96 and '97, and in that boom I dare say some investors will be lucky- enough to put their money on a winner, while others will.content themselves with the reaping of an abundant crop of experience. ' "Here's another instance of the .old saying that .distant ;pastures look greener.than the fields close at., hand. This section, the Similkameen, might have had a boom in 'oy���'9i& 'if' it had been accessible at'that time,'when the boom microbe was travelling westward from Rossland through the Boundary, but was diverted southward to Republic camp. There were, riot even wagon roads in this district then, the trails often being the creek beds at low water, and the only entrace from east or west being via the Dewdney trail; while north and south there were only deer tracts leading' ho where iii particular. 'Here steadily at work grinding; but dividends is the richest gold mine with the busiest stamp, mill in.- Canada. The Nickel Plate stands f,first on the list of Canada's gold mine's, and there are others *just; as' good in the' immediate vicinity, notably 'the Kingston. Then the gold-copper propositions are many. Some of.these-.are..'.low; down and close to the railway;'all of ihem are easy of access, easy to workr and easy to buy or bond, while I'have no doubt that most of themyare capable of placing their, owners' ori .easy jstreet if worked under proper-conditions.

' The British Columbia, Copper company properties are again all operating On Visit to Granby Smelter and Mines James B. Herreschoff, a prominent mcullurgist of New York, is a visitor in Phoenix, the guest of the Granby -company. Mr. Herreschoff is superintendent of the Nichols Copper company, which is an important factor in the copper world, controlling a large number of producers. Its chief busi r.ess is tbe refining of copper, handling 400,000,000 pounds^ annually���equalling about a third of the output of the Un.ted States or twenty, per .cent, .of the world's product. All of the Gran by's blister copper goes to the Nichols refinery; which is located on the outskirts of Brooklyn. .< h 1, . \ Mr. Herreschoff, who travels..con* siderably in. the interests of this company, said he had come to the Boundary to see the Granby smelting plant and mines. He visited the smelter on Thursday and was shown the mines yesterday -by Superintendent O. B. Smith and commented on the wonder ful advancement which had been made at the propel ties since his last visit in 1903. Asked as to his opinion of the future price of copper, Mr. Herreschoff saidit was difficult to figure on an ad: vance and smilingly remarked that the price could not go much lower. However; history repeats itself, he said; a high price tends to greater production and a smaller consumption, while a low price curtails the output and stimulates comsumption. Although demand 'for ihe Ted metal has not yet increased sufficiently to counteract the output;:it will assuredly, come, consumption will exceed production and the rise in the copper market follow. Mr.. Herreschoff does not look for'the'success of any merger to control the output of copper; such a merger; is largely - newt- paper discussions.;, ������ '������������:���>.:. .-:.���- Boundary Side Lights j The street sprinkler at Grand Folks has opened us season.

A BIG MERCANTILE DEAL CONSUMMATED Morrin-Thompson Take Over Huntcr-Kendrick Business The most important mercantile deal in the history of the Boundary country has just been consummated in the purchase of the Hunter-Kendrick company's business in Phoenix, by. the Morrin-Thompson company.' The con solidation will involve an annual business of about a quarter of a million dollars. On May 15 next the Morrin Thompson company will take over the grocery and hardware business of the Hunter- Kendrick company, and will later take over the dry goods business as well. Morrin-Thompson & Co. will continue their business in .the lower town as well as their acquisition in''the upper town, and expect that with their increased volume of business tobuy cheaper and, together with the reduced expense under one management, to tfleet a considerable saving for the buying public of Phoenix. " h~ May Lease Norlhporl Smelter Thomas Kiddie made a trip to Northport, Wash, lately in connection with the proposed leasing of the North- port smelting works to a -syndicate which has been talking of operating the works on a custom basis.

Qracc Cameron In Nancy One of this season's great play successes is a play called "Nancy," which was writtenby C. H. Kerr, author of "The- Beauty Doctor," "Little Dollie Dimples," etc. This piece will be presented in this city for one night, May 6th, and comes with a great company, headed by the peerless comedienne, Grace Cameron. The play is delightful and refreshing, full of heart interest and highly diverting comedy situations. Miss Cameron with the theatre and stage in absolute darkness, with the exception of the red glow of an old cook stove. In this particular scene, the dramatic situation is so intense that even though there is not a word spoken for nearly two minutes, you can hear a pin drop or a breath taken unusually strong by any members of the audience. During the action of the play Miss Cameron will sing seveial selections of the swingy order, and also of the big calatura variety. The sup- \ orting company is one of superior excellence, comprising such well known names as Pheobe Cardownie, Jack Raymond, Christopher Nelson, Frank Watters, and many others. The scenic, mechanic, and electrical effects are particularly elaborate, and the production will be shown here in its entirety, the same as in all the metro politan cities. One of the most pleas ing effects in "Nancy," the new comedy in which Mist Grace Cameron will be seen at the opera house, Phoenix; on Friday, May 6. ounces of gold and 23,000 ounces of silver. - This mine continues to be productive. Lately another, the Iona, has also come into notice, and preparations are being made for a resumption of work oh the Dundee, after a long period of inactivity, following the destruction of its surface ..works , by; fire some years ago'.l'r',.'...\ .. . ., In Erie /Camp, the Second Relief and Arlington gold mines have both contributed to the annual production of the district, but the former has not been so successful latterly as during several earlier years. The Arlington's production while not large, is fairly uniform year after year, approximately 3000 ounces of gold and 6000 to 7000 ounces of silver. Chrliteu Lake William Oxley, who has been connected with the Granby mines for the past five years, leaves next week for South America to take a position with a mining company operating near Valparaiso, Chile. 90 CLAIMS BONDED BY MANN SYNDICATE Mining Operations in Portland Canal District ��� The proposed mining operations of Donald I). Mann and his associates in the Portland district will be carried out on a scale of magnitude unparalleled in the history of lode mining in British Columbia. It has been announced that thus far ninety mineral claims have been bonded, the latest acquisitions being groups at Maple Bay and Goose Bay, in the same district. The various properties comprise straight smelting and concentrating ores, the values being in nearly every kind of metal, chiefly gold, copper, silver and lead. It is not expected that all the claims will "make good," but wherever there is a chance of making a mine development work will be maintained and pay ments on the bonds continued. In so large a number, many of which have not even been carefully examined, there is bound lo exist the usual percentage of "wildcats." Ownership in th,e bonds or options will be vested in a new corporation recently incorporated at Toronto and styled the Pacific Coast Mining & Development Co. The mining operations of the company in the North will be under the direction of H. E. Knobel, M.E., who personally examined many of the prop- crties last fall. R. S. Fraser returned from Spokane on Saturday but little improved in h alth. He intends leaving shortly to spend the summer on his ranch near Spokane. Everything points to a big season at Christena lake this summer. .The popularity of this natural beauty spot of the Boundary as a summer resort last year started the - whirl of excitement for this outing season. A large < number of new locations have been secured and cottages'will be. erected. Among the improvements at the lake this year will be a $1200 dance pavilion which will be built at once. Dancing is always popular among the.. holiday visitors and arrangements have ' been' made for an orchestra. ' ' Ole Johnson has also commenced ! the construction of a sixteen-roomed ! addition to his hotel. Excitement will run high here on May 1st. A big boat race will be pulled off between Elmer Ness and John B. Mitchell for a side bet of $50. Both the contestants are well, known, and several other bets have already been made on the outcome. BelMco't St. Elmo Willard Holcomb's dramatization of ' Augusta Evans' novel "St. Elmo" was ' presented by the Alcazar touring company in Phoenix opera house on Friday ��� evening of last week to a large and appreciative audience. The company was one of exceptional merit for Phoe-" nix and it is seldom an attraction in the local playhouse. has given such general satisfaction. While the dramatist has taken considerable license from the printed story, the play was of a high tone and entirely an enjoyable stage version. St. Elmo is an exceptionally strong cnaracter and in its portrayal Charles E. Gunn fully sus- ; tained his ability as an impersonator with magnetic personality. In the role of Edna Earl, the blacksmith's ' granddaughter, Miss Gerda Nelson was eminently successful, being naturally: talented for the presentation of the pe-'; cuha'ly attractive heroine. While the' entire caste was good, Bellew Baldwin as the Rev. John Hammond and Louise Brownell as Agnes Powell were conspicuously successful in difficult roles. The show was in every way a success and the theatre-goers of Phoenix may look forward.to other attractions in charge of Frederick Belasco. Tuesday's Fire A dwelling on west Dominion avenue, owned by Alex. McDonald, was badly gutted by fire Tuesday after noon. The fire got considerable head-* way in tbe roof of the building before the arrival of the brigade and took some time to extinguish. D. L Parker and family, who had been living in the house for some time had just moved out. The fire is said to have been caused by some.small boys who were playing about the building.

In support of his contention, he would refer to the experience of, well known copper mmesr suqhjofRio Tinto, andjhe results certainly confirmed his contentions. The advantages of Miner's low grade prop- os%pn i^as that mining became quarrying.^ Tne values were disseminated in buch a manner that picking and grad ing were abandoned, and it was de cided that the old mountain should be removed and shoved into the smelter. The steam shovels simply scoop it up in sections, and in the subsequent operations the mineral is saved and the residue finds its way back to the dump. Had it not been for certain self-fluxing qualities attending the scientific mixing oi the ores, the ultimate outcome would have been problematical. As it was, one difficulty after another was surmounted,,but not untH Mr. Miner had personally backed the proposition, it is said, to upwards of $1,000,000. Then came the con solidation of various properties into the Granby. Consolidated Mining, Smelting St Power company, with, a capitalization of $15,000,000, of which $13,363,030 was paid up. Mr. Miner was president and Jay P. Graves vice- president and general manager. Ihe first dividend was paid December 16, 1903, and consisted of 1 per cent. At the following annual meeting, for the year ending June 30, 1904,, Mr. Miner resigned the presidency, having been identified with the property for seven years. He still remained one of the largest shareholders at that time. The fact is, Jim Hill and his Great Northern Railway ,in- teresta,! had obtained control,. Hill's object being to make the mine serve as a source of supply of freight for his railway. ~ , r <��� The par value of the Consolidated company's 'shares was originally $5 The .mines have had. many, ups. and downs during their ten-years of opera tion, and the stock'of the Consolidation has experienced many fluctuations, as dividends'were declared and became doubtful or were passed altogether.

It such a canal is not built in the course of time I believe-Canada will lose- the grain carrying trade of the country." Coste was giving evidence on a bill to incorporate a company to build a canal, from ��� Lake Superior to Lake Winnipeg. From an engineering stand point, he said, the scheme was feasible It would be possible to build a canal along the proposed route 40 feet wide and containing seven feet of water. Coste. said there was no objection to the scheme by reason of the route being for some distance along international waters. He believed the Americans would fall in with the proposal of building, the canal, because American territory would be developed uxsmxxmmxma Jur��al(��tAwla��tass Cawlai Music lovers and admirers of light opera have,a musical treat in store for TALES PROM THE WONDERPUL WEST ;A Dear: Little Girl At TKe Rink ���i..S&fe,��Qyra.Xust..as..Q.uick......

The refinery continues to ship most of its silver to China,'; althoui<h an increasing quantity is being absorbed by the Ottawa mint for coinage purposes. All the new silver coins in circulation are made out of British Columbia metal. The Canadian market for pig; lead is increasing rapidly and the supply is coming almost entirely from Trail. One result has been that export shipments to China and Japan are becoming less each year. At the present rate of increase of consumption due to the remarkable growth and development in the western provinces, it will only be a short r time before the; entire pig lead production of Canada will be used at home. Fatal.tattla at Riipart C. Heaton,. better known as "the Colorado Kid," was fatally- injured by Detective McKenzie in a street fight at Prince Rupert, during which many bullets, were exchanged. Trie trouble arose over a- "blind pig" arrest. $335^000 IN- LEAD BOUNTIES The sum of $335,000 one third of a million, has been paid out during the year ending March .31st���or rather for that year, because the shipping; mines had til! April 15 to get. their final statements in���in lead bounties in Canada. All of this sum comes to British Columbia, and in fact, ;to the properties shipping to the smelter Trail, of the Consolidated Mining and Smelting company, as nowhere else in Canada is lead mined or rjefined. Of the bounty, 60 per cent, was paid from month to month, oh the 'claims presented by the shipping mines, the remaining 40 per cent, being held back till the end of the Dominion fiscal year, March 31, and paid upon the actual returns of the smelter.

In the same six years entries were made from all sources for 189,913 homesteads under. Canadian laws, more than 36% being taken by homesteaders from the United States. The exodus, from this country to Canada is now estimated to run at 100,000 persons a year, who take $100,- 606,000 with them. PROPOSED BIG C.P.R. TUNNEL The'C.P.R; have under consideration altering their line through Rogers Pass and running up the Beaver valley to a proposed tunnel under Mt. Sir Donald, coming out at Glacier. The tunnel would be fo'r to five miles in length and it is stated would soon save its cost in the maintenance and construction of snowsheds, besides avoiding the danger of slides in the pass A factor in the problem is that the time is at hand when all snowsheds and the extensive crib-work connected with some of them would have, to be wholly renewed in any case.
