[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.

Stone, representing the Diamoncl Drill Co., of Spokane, finished a contiact for dia-. niond dulling for the Minci-Grave.s syndicate in this ramp, on which lie had been employed since August. The chief woik was done on the O'td Ironsides, Victoria, and Banner claims During that time lie had driven his drill some 2,700 feet in the diffeieni properties, .with results that arc believed to have been highly satisfactory to the management, although no official figures are given out. Since December .Mr. Stone lias been fulfilling a similar contract at the Highland mine, near Ainsworth, on Kootenay lake, wheie he drilled 500 feet, having just completed this piece of work. Last Tuesday Mr. Stone arrived back in I'hoenix, and" began drilling at tlie Snowshoe, where he expects to do about 1,000 feet of drilling. On this property holes will be bored both in the shaft and in the railway tunnel, which latter is now in over 500 feet'. 'I he great advantage of diamond drill prospecting is that the cores can be assayed, .showing the character of iqck that is being pcnetiatcd, and indicating the location of the best ore bodies. As diamond drilling co^ls but $2.50 to $3.00 per foot, according to size of contract, it is a comparatively inexpensive way of locating pay ore. It is evidently giowing more popular with mining men each year, as it saves much useless development, when properly done. Last Meeting Out one for ifec Present ' bets. The city council held' it regular weekly session last Wednesday evening. All members being present except Alderman Marshall,, who is at the coast.

The chief of police was instructed by the council to close th): gambling games. As this is expected to be the last week in office by the membeis of the present council, an adjournment' was taken tiil Satin day night, to close up any unfinished business lor the fiscal year.

He made s|iccial mention ol the pleasant associations that have developed in the old school house, and of the benefit th.it it had been in the building up of the work here, thanking the school board for the ircc use of the building. .

By tonight the Brooklyn and Stemwinder will have nearly 80 men employed. A few days ago a g*iod strike of ore was made in the north dnft of the 250 toot level of the Hi ookljn in a place where heretofore no ore had been, encountered. Splendid ore is also being found in the Stemwinder,and the local officials ofthe company are consequently feeling quite pleased at the results of work thus far. A laise has been started in the south drift of the 250-foot level of the Brooklyn to the r 50-foot ,levcl, and thence to the surface, about 70 feet, as the hill'slants at thai point.

Last week the smelter produced 13S tons of matte. , No decision has yet been arrived at as to where the new smelter of the Dominion Copper Co. will be located, except that it will probably be near the Boundary line, so that Republic- ores can be readily brought in. The annual meetings of the several companies organized by the Miner- Graves syndicate, will be held shortly. They-will doubtless, be of more than- ordinary interest, as groat progress has been make in the last "12 months.

Mr. Gillis was the successful one out of eight or ten bidders, and he immediately started at work the next day, running double shifts. The Raw hide tunnel is now into the hill about 500 teet, and has been driven to crosscut the oie 'body. When 100 leet of work was done last year, it was thought ore would be - reached before the runtrat't had. ibecii fuifilled. However, it is now lhe intention 10 give the property a tlior-, ough prospecting, and the present con ��� tract has been let in 50 loot sections. Probably some drifting will be undertaken before long. ( Since the woik on the property was done a year ago, the so-called railway tunnel on the Snowshoe, not far from the adjoining Rawhide line, was start- , ed, and several hundred feet ot work, has been done, a large part of which is in ore ot a good quality. The Rawhide development will probably prove equally succcsslul. " ������ ' A1 - "��� *'"r~F, <r< ;��� ��� !'.',. ���*. 7' ' .K\ t t* I -,''��� * ( " J T* J.,i CASCADE WATER POWER SOLD.

The case was that of Kettle River Mines, Ltd. vs. Blcasdell ct al. In substance it is that if one buys shares at, say 10 cents each*, on certificates which represent them to be of a par value of $1 each "paid up"1 direct from the company, he must pay the difference between the 10 cents and the par value, because he knew at the time lie bought that he .had not paid their face value. If however, the same shares were bought in the open market on the same certificates and . at the same price, the purchaser is not responsible for the payment ofthe difference, as he is entitled to rely on the com,- pany's statement in the certificates that the shares are paid tip and 'non-assessable. r __1_ Wtwt a Uve New ipiper Can Do. A live ncwspa|)er is an important factor in the upbuilding of any town or district, especially in a mining camp. The Cranbrook Herald, speaking of the work done by country newspapers, hays: "They stand week in and week out, always ready to assist and-help, in business, in personal ambition, and in promoting the welfare of the community. They may receive their ic- . ward. As a rule, they do. Yet, there are always a few individuals who have nothing for a paper but criticism. The columns of any newspaper show the progress of the town, but never any backward movement. It preaches hope and prosperity and always has an abiding faith in the people and the community." U-~ *< iV-k . .* Thinks Thcv Are Oood Paper*. Two of the best papers that come to this office arc the Pioneer, of Phoenix, and the Lardeau Eagle, of Ferguson, 'l'ficse two papers, published in the , centers of two rich districts, are spreading the gospel of truth about their respective territories in a manner that fill do a world of good. 'Too many ccklics in British Columbia show a ck of energy and thought. The ioriccr and the Eagle arc brilliant exceptions, and Messrs.

'These five smelters will have a capacity of 2,500 tons of ore a day. To produce the ore that will be used in these five smelters will give steady employment to 2,5,00 men,- none of whom will receive less than $2.50 a dA), and' the average will be $3 a daj. These men will work every day in the year, and will earn $7,500 .1 da\, or or $225,00 a month, $2,700,- 000 a j ear.. 'The five smelters will !-tvc steady employment to 1500 smeltermen, railwaymen, coal miners and coke burners, who will average $2.50 a day. This means a futher disbursement in wages of $3750 a day, or $112,500 a month, or $1,350,000 .1 v ear. Combined, the mining and smelting of 2300 tons of ore in south-' tastern British Columbia means 'an annual disbursement of $4,000,000 in wages alone, the bulk of which is spent in southeastern British Columbia. On the other hand, suppose the 2500 tons of ore mined in southeastern British Columbia was smelted at North port and Tacoma and Omaha and Everett and other points in the United States, what would be the loss to southeastern British Columbia? ...������.������..>..
