[The Phoenix Pioneer and Boundary Mining Journal]
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.

He has been spending a couple of weeks familiarizing himself with the mining conditions of the Kootenay and Yale, and of course took in Phoenix in the course of his travels. While his ���stay in the chief mining town of the Boundary was'brief,,Mr. McBride saw enough to make him open his eyes wider than they had been opened' for many a long day. . The minister of mines was accompanied on his visit to Phoenix by Fred Oliver, W..T. Smith, and Mr. Mackintosh, son of the governor. He was met: here by, Alderman Punch, an old acquaintance, Mr. McBride and Mr. Punch's son having been schoolboys together. Supt. Williams, of the Miner-Graves syndicate, courteously showed the party through the Old Ironsides arid Knob Hill mines, and while the trip was made in a most hurried manner, as Mr. McBride had arranged .to leave on the afternoon train, he saw more solid ore at one time,; m 250x250 foot blocks, than it had ever been his good fortune to gaze at before. In fact, he was so much astonished that he hardly knew how, to. express himself.7 In conversation with Mr. McBride, Aldermali Punch called h is attention to the fact that the government: had not yet made the refund to the new corporation of the city of Phoenix, for license fees paid, and the minister promised to give the matter attention on his return to Victoiia. , Repiesentatives of- the Phoenix- Board of Trade and the Old Ironsides" management were desirous of showing sSm^Specia!attention to MrMcBride, but his time was so short that he had to start for the train without even getting his lunch; However, after his first visit to the Boundary country and Phoenix,; his-views'of the importance and needsof this section will most assuredly be broader and more comprehensive than before.

General Manager Marpole, of the C. P. R.i will be in the Boundary next Tuesday to look into the situation, and complete the necessary details. ^^i>^^-?fc-'9>-''^^1^''*>^'^-:*''^6'' Wednesday evening's session of the city council was notable chiefly forya resolution adopted for the purjiose of securing a good .-passenger service to I'hoenix over the rails, which have beeti-completed to the town for nearly seven months. ' The mayor arid' Couiicilnien Clark, Mclnnis,' Morrin, McBeun aiid Punch were present when''the council started business. ,'A telegram was read from the attorney general, stating, that the license commissioners recommended by the council had been appointed by the government. ,, "'The city clerk reported that he was having complete city map drawn by Messrs. Aldham & Blunt. He also reported that with the mayor a loan for $1,600 had been negotiated at the Eastern, Townships' Bank, for Go days, but"wiiich could be paid at any time. The report ofthe finance committee was.then read and.bills to the amount ��*7 $773-86 were ordered paid: The mayor .explained - that the larger part of this was for accounts rendered for the first election and incorporating, and that hereafter the running expenses of the city would be* comparatively small. ' >���';���; . ' -. 7 /The city clerk reported a resolotion, ordered prepared by him at the last session of the .'council, in regard to a railway passenger, service to Phoenix, which was as Jollows: " . Passenger Service Resolution. Unto his excellency the*'Governor-General in Council the petition of. the Municipal Council of the Corporation of the City of Phoenix, iii the Province of British Columbia, humbly sheweth: 1. That the City of Phoeuix is situated on a branch of the Columbia & Western Railway, and is about nine miles from Kholt, where the branch :JcSvtrstlieTnim-liiic.te'fe-:7'-''7.-: ���-:y7V-:-:7'7-'i- ���2.. That the saidCityof Phoenix is,- with the single exception of Rossland, the largest shipper of metalliferous ores iu Uritisli Columbia, and in fact far surpasses of all the rest of the Province outiide of Rossland. 3. That the track ofthe said railway was completed into Phoenix on the 21st day of May, 1900, and on July nth steady shipments of gold-cop: per ore commenced from the .heart of thc town. 4. That these .shipments from the Knob Hill, Old Ironsides and Victoria mines alone have thus far reached the total of 52,650 tons, and havesincc the 17th day of October, 1900, been no less than 600 tons a day (Sunday's included). It is expected that after February the amount shipped from these three mines will be 1200 tons a day. 5. That several other mines, such as the Snow- shoe, Brooklyn, Stemwinder, Athelstan, Winnipeg, Brandon & Golden Crown, Hartford, and others, have shipped on a smaller scale from Phoenix or points immediately adjacent; while the B. C. mine, about four miles off, also ships largely over Ihe same branch. 6. That mo.it of the ore shipped goes to thc Granby smelter at Grand Forks. 7. That the supplies hauled by the railway into Phoeuix amount to about 100 tons a week. 8. That the railway comany is now deriving a very handsome revenue from Phocnixf on account of its great record as an ore shipper. 9. That the Columbia S: Western Railway, which has a mileage, including branches, of about 126 miles, is almost wholly dependent for its revenue on the City of Phoenix. 10. That, in spite of the debt which it owes to Phoeuix, the CanaJian racinc Railway Company, which is operating the above railway, refuses or delays to bring the mails into rhoenix by rail, or to give the people of Phoenix any description of passenger service whatsoever. 11. That, instead of bringing mails and passengers into Phoeuix over thc branch from Kholt, the Company carries them past Kholt uearly ten miles to Greenwood, and then leaves them to climb the face of.a mountain to I'hoenix, the distance being five miles, and the elevation to be climbed 2.000 feet. This is accomplished by stage, the journey being an extrcmsly slow and unpleasant one. 12. That mails and passengers arc belated from two to three hours by this slow and circuitous method of transportation, and unnecessary expense has to be borne by the Dominion Government iu having the mails hauled by stage to and from Greenwood. I 13. That thc travelling public is so much disgusted by the artificial difficulties thrown in the wny of getting to Phoenix, that large numbers of business people who would otherwise visit so thriving n ceutre of industry do not come to I'hoenix at all. 14. That all the other places of any consc- qc-.i---iicc on thc Columbia S: Western Railway have a good passenger and mail service, the only place over-looked being thc one place from which the railway derives nearly all its revenue, and without which the railway would be a ho|>e- lesc failure. 15. Your petitioners therefore pray that instructions may he given that the mails be brought I into Phoenix by rail, and that all possible pressure be brought to bear to compel the railway company to give I'hoenix a regular and thoroughly equipped passenger service. And your petitioners, as in duty bound, will ever pray, etc. Datod tlie 5th day of December, 1900. This resolution was unanimously adopteu by the council and copies ordered seiit to Premier Laurier, the postmaster-general, the secretary ol" state, our member in the Dominion parliament, and to the minister of railways. The Fire by-law was brought up, an postponed till next week to make changes. The"Vngrancy by-law passed its second and last reading and is now a law. The Winter Traffic by-law was read the first time and Alderman Mclnnis WILL LOSE AN EVE. By an Accident at the Knob Hill Lasl Thursday.

Elected MAJORITY FOR FOLEY IN PH92KI Independent Labor Man Ahead In Most Minim: Towns, But Galllher Polled out In Farm- ins Communities. BACK FROM SIMILKAMEEN. Frank Bailey Says New Wagon Road Is Nearly '���Done. ' '..&; Frank Bailey owner of the townsite of Similkameen City, midway between Kcremeos and Princeton, was in'town Monday; He had just returned from a trip to the Similkameen, where he says there is considerable going on this winter in a mining way.. Camp Hedley, where his townsite";isv located is where the now famous Nickle Plate group, owned by the late Marcus Daly, is being systematically developed. A force of 50 men is now employed by Supt. K. M. Rogers, and the mine Will, shortly, have an air compressor, a .wagon road having just been completed 25 miles, from Penticton to the mine,,to haul it in. ' ���,,/ ��� Among other properties being deveL- oped in Camp Hedley are. the Rollo group, owned by Pete Scott and R. Hedley, and the '-Wellington; Stem- winder and Lookout groups., On Sterling creek prospecting has opened up several fine ledges of copper-gold ore, notably on the Pollock group, the Lion's Head and the Puller. .Mr. Baily.. says the new wagon road is 'completed ; from ^Keremeos to:, Siinr ilkaiiVeen City,7and'\yilTl3e7fiiiished to Princeton, 45 miles' from Keremeos, by Christmas. ��� There i.s now a gap of ten miles between the two gangs of road builders) This road will undoubtedly be the main artery of travel and the mail route for the whole Similkameen. It will make 50 miles shorter haul to Princeton than by the present, route from Spcnce's Bridge, on the main line of the C. P. R. Of Similkameen City Mr. Bailey is as enthusiestic as ever.- He now has perlect title, and the lots are platted and on the market. A large influx is anticipated by him to that section as soon as spring opens, as the mineral riches of the Similkameen are becoming noted everywhere.- Thuisday's Dominion election in I'hoenix was compaiatively quiet, and reports from other polling stations in this constitutency of Yale-Cariboo indicate^ that the same condition ot" affairs prevailed elsewhere. It will be some days before the letums are complete, as some polling places are miles from 'telegraph or telephone offices. From" returns already received! however, it appeals certain that Galliher will have a small,majoiity. In nearly all mining towns Foley had a majority, such as Greenwood, Phoenix, Eholr, Cascade, Rossland, Ymir, Cranbrook, Ft. Steele, Ferine, Slocan, Sandon, Moyie, McKinney, New Denver, Gladstone. But in such places as Kamloops, Revelstoke, Veinon, etc., Galliher had large majorities. In Phoenix Foley was ahead, having more votes than the other two candidates. There were 149 votes counted in Phoenix, of which Foley had 86, McKane 24 and Galliher 39. As ,lar as received the returns in detail are as follow s: Foley McKane Galliher Kholt 38 10 , r9 ' Trail 34 80 53 Grand Forks. 39 40 80 Gieenwood... 141 53 120 Midway 6 4 20 Phoenix S6 24 ���39- n. .1.:- - - WHIIUUIU.-7T.- 7 12 ��3 Rossland.... 5'9 261: 0 n -��� Cascade '3 1 4 Nelson 255 1 A t -*t4 355 Waneta I 2 Kaslo 71 37 So Cranbrook .. 59 41 76 Wardner Kitchener ... 4 4 Ft.

Last Saturday the directors of the Phoenix General Hospital held a meeting, and the announcement was made that James Punch had been selected as its representative on the board. It is probable that the hospital building will not he constructed till spring, as the board desiie to put up a $4,000 building, and the. subscriptions do not foot up to that amount yet. The site donated by the Granby Co is in the extreme northern block of the Old Ironsides subdivision. The latest total returns received last night, when the Pioneer was printed,, gave the following totals: Foley, 2,570; McKane, 2,205; Galliher, 2,690. By these figures Galliher is 120 votes ahead out of 7,465. Other returns are expected to increase the majority somewhat. Phoenix Next to Ihe Top. As was expected,' the vote at this election was not as large as that polled in the provincial election last June. Every town in the Boundary shows some loss, running from 4 to 64 per cent. Together with the. town of Eholt, Phoenix shows the least loss oi all in voting strength. This city polled only 10 votes less than Grand Forks at this election. The following table will show the exact figures: Will Not Give a Bail The Pioneer last week was in error in making the statement that a ball would be given on December 27 by resident Masons. The announcement was not official and no such dance will be given. The Columbia & Western Railway Company will apply next session for an act assimilating the bonding powers of its railway and bianch lines west of Midway.

The following letter was received *his week by "the publisheis of tiie j Sons, the smelter peopleofAntogagasta, Pioneer- ^.^ . SpA-rri.r, Wash,. Nov. al, 1900 DfcAit SiRti ��� Unclosed jiltaxe find $2 for sul>- *cription to jour paper for one rear. I look, forward with .pleasure to the receipt of your paper, which m redolent with interesting jnlniiijCneHB, and is, r tlinU., cue of the best publications in the Boundary. "i'nis is merely a cample of letters received frequently' liy the Pioneer Jrom the Atlantic to the Pacific, and frcm both the United States and Canada. It is quite evident that the ef- J'01 ts of the management of the Pioneer to publish a paper that is thoroughly repiesentative of this, one of the greatest mining sections on this continent, /ire being appointed. While only a Jittle over a y ear old, this paper has already, if the opinion of its fi lends ean he rt'Iipd vpojj, become the most j Mlcci-Craves'' People Have Solved , Problem. In a recent interview at Montreal, Mr. Jay P. Giaves,- general -manager of the Miner-Graves syndicate, is reported as say ing that they are treating at a pi out at their smelter at Grand Forks, ore that has a value of $6.00 per ton The present capacity of the smelter is 600 tons a day, and this is to be doubled as soon as new furnaces can be built. rtUp to a * couple of years ago the erioneous idea prevailed that nothing under $n or $14 ore was worth .handling. In those days freight rates weie high and smelter charges excessive. A change has happily come over the scene, and y to day( quantity figures in the calculation as well as quality. Improved transport and smelting facilities permit of the profitable handling ot ore which heretolbie found* place on the waste dump, if touched at all. It is an important factor in considering resources of the c ountry, to know that $6 ore is a xaluable commodity, as theie are mountains of such mateiial available. 'J'he smelters at present are having more ore offered than they can handle, and in order to keep up with thc demand, they aie increasing their capacity and adopting the most adva no ed method of treatment. In this pai- ticular our local smelter is well in the foie innks and is being put in order to accommdeate all comeis.���Nelson Economist. Phoenix Cafe, ABE HALL, Prop.

It is not right that thou shouldst ask him who is the author of any article, for it is his duty to keep such things unto himself.
