[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.

Dsunng the first half -of this year the Granby company has pro duced in round figures 12,000,000 pounds of copper-a recovery of 24 pounds of copp'ei to the ton upon 495,000 tons <if ore tr.-ated by the smelterin that .time.. ������ ^ In this six'.." months period the Granbv has earned a profit of about three cents per pound 'upon this pro duct, which would be equal to about $2.75 per share,'aiid in the face of remodelling its smelting plant it is apparent why the, Granby company has not paid, out^these earnings .in'-.-.diyi- dends.**"-4'.;"**-'5"'"'.?-."'

With these six new furnaces the- Granby has a smelting capacity equal to that of-the eight old furnaces, and it will be a matter of but a few weeks until the entire battery has been enlarged, and then the Granby will be able to prepuce 35,000,000 pounds of copper per annum at'*.rten^eht|ayer- age cost. Such output*and cost would indicate net earnings'df ��� $8 per ' share on-a3-ceht copper, and; $2.50 per share additional, earnings for every one cent advance in the, price of copper. ANOTHER HOTEL OUT OF BUSINESS License of Central Hotel Is Suspended A meeting of the, police, and license, commis��inneis was held in the city hall Thursday evening, Commissioner Hillier and Galei being present. A noli e of intention to apply for a transfer of license, from McArdle '& Anderson to Charles Hagan of -the Knob Hill hotel at the next regular mceiinu was read. A complaint tram the chief of police was read against 1 lie Central hotel. The complaint was that the Central hotel has no license exhibited in its bar and that the hotel is run by a person other than the li cense holder (contrsuy to law) and no s'epshave been taken to transfer the license to the prt*s*nt ticcupiirit. The coinmissioneis aujourned the hearing of the complaint aeainit the Central hotel till Monday, Aug. 2nd, and the license to sell liquor at the Central is suspended until lurtlier oroer of the commissioners.

That electric motors, will in the not distant future replace steam engines for the operating of railway trains into .Phoenix.is..now regarded,.,a matter ,of Certainty by officials who have inspected the road with- that end in view and have had the matter under consideration for'some months���and indicates but another step in the evolution of transportation andithe. progress of the great'Boundary district.;- Although many millions of tons of ore have already'been mined from the hill upon which Phoenix is located, the surface of the inexhaustible ore bodies have as. yet only been scratched, so that Phoenix, the already greatest copper camp iai Canada, is but in -its To meet the requirements for ; shipping these large quantities of ore���and looking to the great future of Phoenix ���the railway companies, whoserevenue already amounts to thousands of dollars daily, are constantly making betterments to their facilities for handling the production of the mines. The present-day fifty-ton steel compartment ore dumps, equipped with the' most modern system of air brakes for use on themoun tains are hardly recognizable as an outgrowth of the old wooden boxes which originally obtained for carrying ore. In like manner trackage���nowhere on the continent is there better trackage than at Phoenix���and other facilities have also been improved, economy being the great goal. But Phoenix is at an altitude of nearly 5000 feet, and to convey.trains;, averaging twenty .cars, of ore, great locomotive power is required, and immense quantities of coal are daily consumed. The mountains of the interior, however, offer innumerable opportunities for harnessing rivers to produce cheap power to overcome the transportation problem. To this fact the;rail- way companies are,awakening, and the passing of the locomotive as a relict of transportation in the mountains is but a matter, of time. i. .. j "The Canadian Pacific railway has intimated, to^e^hat^ffidals^ delegates to report this* summer on-the cost of electrifying the Columbia and Western branch of that railway system," said Lome A. Campbell, general manager of the West Kootenay Power & Light company, in an interview recently. Mr. Campbell's company will; supply the electrical energy for operating the trains oyer this route when the electrification shall have been completed. "We have 36,000 horse power hy- draulically developed at our "plant at Bonnington Falls, on the Kootenay river, and have already generated a capacity of 23,000 horse power. We are now supplying power to mines and smelters in the Boundary district, as well as lighting various towns and cities. The limit of development at our plant is about 100,000 horse power. ! "It is probable that the railway company .will first, electrify. the���.sectioris with the heaviest grades and where the heaviest ;tra.ffic is handled. This is especially true if the line between'.the Granby company's smelter and its mines at Phoenix, about 25 miles distant. The use of electricity on the other lines will follow later..._. Its adoption will result in effecting a largosaying over :tbe present method of burning coal for'';.-,steaming., purposes: v,.The trolley and-the third rail systems each possess merits, but I don't know which , .wjjl Jb&. adqp^ii*i��&:^^^^ ���.v/j;:::;; ���:.. "Power development in -tfie Kootenay will assume big proportions in the next few. years. The .larger"the maximum consumption the cheaper will become the'-rates. It looks as though all the railways in the interior will in time be operated by electricity owing to the abundant water power available at various points along the main line of theCanadiah Pacific." It is a significant,acknowledgement of the great possibilities of Phoenix that Canada's leading transcontinental railway should decide to make this city the starting point in the electrification of its system. : B C. Copper latcreitet al Kimlotpi Frederic Keffer, consulting engineer of the British" Columbia Copper .company, has been spending a few days at Kamloops looking over some mining properties in that vicinity, referring; to which the Sentinel says:, -Mr; Keffer re-? presents one of the largest copper.corporations on the continent, and is a recognized mining expert, enjoying a continental reputation His tests are possibly more thorough than those of other engineers, but the results are always more satisfactory. It is understood that he will conduct diamond drill operations on a number of: the properties in order to ascertain the extent of the ore bodies. If satisfactory results are obtained the British Columbia Copper ,Co. will likely invest money here. -:": ������ Boaodary Or* Sklpnieats The ore shipments frqrn: Boundary mines for the past week and year to date follows: * .-������'���" .- Week Granby mines.",... .18,763 Mother Lode...... .... 3i02.?

A number of miners from Phoenix hill have gone to work at the Mother Lode. J. C. Henderson and Thos. Bermeen have commenced work on the Great Laxy group, near Eholt. ; A six-inch seam of free milling gold is reported to have been struck on the Volcanic mountain, North Fork. About a dozen men have been put to work on the Apex property, at Olalla, owned by the Colonial Gold Mining company. Charles Biesel, superintendent ofthe Snowshoe mine, was in Trail during the past week on business connected with the property. The portable station of P. Boyles diamond drill was destroyed by fire Sunday afternoon. The drill machinery was little damaged. The operating force on the Golden Eagle, North Fork, has been temporarily cut down, but increased activity on the property is looked for in the course of a few weeks. Rails arrived this week to complete the tramway on the Phoenix Amalgamated. The C.P.R. is now awaiting authority from the lailway commission to construct a spur from Hartford Junction to the Amalgamated's ore bins. Owing to the burning out of coils in one of the 700 horse power motors at the Granby compressor on Monday, only half the compressor plant was in operation for a few days early in tbe week. The miners were given a holiday on Wednesday. The B. C. Copper company has been organizing its forces during the past week, and although a large number of men have been started to work the company is still in need of more experienced miners. Most of the former shift bosses and other officials have taken their old positions. Cars are being loaded at Mother Lode, but up till yesterday no shipments have been made. None of the furnaces at the smelter have been blown in as yet. SNOWSBOE'S ORE OUTPUT To Increase to 600 Tons Daily Over Eighty Men Now Employed at Mine Christena Lake Notes Commencing next Monday the Snow- shoe mine will increase its ore shipments to 600 or 700 tons daily. An extra force was engaged this week for this purpose and over eighty men are now employed at the mine. The in' crease in tonnage was to have commenced this week, and as a matter of fact over 1500 tons were shipped on Tuesday and Wednesday, but a mishap at the Consolidated company's smelter at Trail which smelts all Snowshoe ore, necessitated delaying the inreased tonnage for a few days. The recent electric storm disabled the power line to the Trail smelter and the furnaces were practically frozen up for a couple davs early in the week. However, the smelter is again in full blast, and with its recently increased capacity is prepared to handle larger quantities of Snowshoe ore. Present mining at the Snowshoe is largely on the surface, a large body of ore having recently been cleared by an electric stripper. The ore passes down thiough chutts to tram cars in the tunnel, which convey it to the C. P.R. It is now nearly two years since the Snowshoe's shipments ran above 500 tons daily and the prospects are very bright for 1909 output of the Snowshoe exceeding any previous year. J. C: Cameron is subdividing a portion of land with Christena lake frontage for a Vancouver syndicate. The camping parties of J. A. Mc- Callum and W. J. Cook have returned to Grand Forks after an outing here. Mr. and Mrs. L. J. Stalls, Mr. and Mrs. Prosser and Page. Boyles, of Phoenix, have been spending this week at Jackson's Cove. George Rumberger, mayor of Phoenix, was a visitor here during the past week and inspected some land with a view to purchasing. C. Crane of Mexico is visiting his sister,. Mrs. A. ,B. W. . Hodges, at "Marion Lodge," where a number of other guests are also being entertained. Preparations are being made for the giving of a grand ball at the Christina Lake hotel pavilion for which the Phoenix orchestra has been engaged. Since J. A. Bertois and E. Spraggett had a corps of engineers from the Cascade Lumber Co., the 12 h.p. gasoline launch has been making rings round everything on the lake. Squafish Frank reports having caught a 13-lb. bass some time ago, and asserts that he partook of three meals per day for six days from this piscatorial beauty. Next! During the past week many bass have been caught in the lake. The bass seem for the time being to have ousted the popularity of the lake trout and big catches are being secured. They range from ^lb. to 3 lbs. in weight, and for gameness have no equal in local waters. Good baskets have been shown at Christina Lake hotel by Mrs. C. H. Flood, A. B. W. Hodges, J. LeBean and C.

Consequently the consumers will have to pay a correspondingly in creased price, but undoubtedly they will be willing to .do this in order to get the finest tea the world produces. Spokane Real Estate S. Wiliman of Spokane is in tbe city this week selling Spokane real estate. "Orchaid- Avenue" is the particular- block which Mr. Wiliman ist selling and Phoenix investors who have visited and inspected the property are enthusiastic as to its possibilities. A recent criticism in the Pioneer on certain real estate agents had no reference to Orchard avenue property, Spokane. For Canadians investing in lots the property is held in trust. 61 chard avenue, the Spokane'propel ty which Mr. Willnian is selling for Neely. and Young, lies on the eastern outskirts of the city, a twenty-minute ride from the terminal station on the Graves electric lines. The. property adjoins the city tip-river park of 1650 acres, which is not as yet^v improved but will be next year,: and is served by the Spokane International R.R., the Idaho, Washington'& Northern R.R., and the Inland Empire Electric R.R., which gives the best 'transportation possible. The. water system is the best that money can secure. The company have a bell-shaped well 50 feet deep, with a nine-inch wall made of steel and concrete. This wellis eight feet across the top and twelve feet at the bottom. It is made larger at the bottom so as to make room for the dynamo which furnishes the power to run the centrifugal pumps, which forces water into a twelve-inch reinforced concrete pipe; this pipe touches each lot. Each lot is furnished with water for irrigation a's well as domestic purposes. The property is wired for electric lights, the laud is level and clear of shrubbery or trees of any kind. Mr. Wiliman has sold sold lots to W. A. Williams, superintendent of the Granby smeltei, Grand Forks, and W. S. Macy, of Phoenix, both of whom saw the property before buying. ���S'P'E CI A L DISCOUNTS 90 Carney Ore Chute Now Feet Long, and Better Than Ever Contractor Cole on the Carney Copper tunnel writes: "It is better than when you were here." C. D. Martin writes: "The face of the drift certainly looks fine." The secretary, C. D. Miller, writes: "Reports from the Carney are good; sending a sample." We have now followed the ore chute 90 feet and the full face of the drift is in ore. Crosscutting has been ordered and we will soon know how wide the ore body is. When this is determined drifting will be resumed. One shift is now driving tunnel No. 2, on the 500- foot level, where we expect to locate the ore chute in 150 to 200 feet.

Mr. Black is to be congratulated on his enterprise. Bash Fires To the Editor of the Phoenix Pioneer: Dear Sir,���Through your columns, I wish to call the attention of every interested citizen of Phoenix to tha fart there have been a great many bush fires set near Phoenix through the carelessness of some persons, and also that fires have been set, at.Marshall Lake, where the city secures its water ?upply. If the fires'wfere to spread ai the lake it would; be impossible to save the pumping station, which would put the waterworks out of commission for a time at least.) The owners of the mineral claims at- the lake have been good enough to leave the timber standing, whidh they could easily have sold for wood lorig before th's, and by allowing the.tiqiber; to.-stand the snow melts gradually, and thereby we have a continuous water|supply. T ��� therefore ask the.assistance, of every good citizen to protect The"tirpber from fire. j Ignorance ofthe law is no excuse, knd any and all offenders of the bush fire act will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. . W. H.. DOCKSTEADER, (Provincial Constable. the proper authorities, whoever may be, to'the fact that, in connection with the improvement in the cemetery, a short distance from Phoenix, a matter of considerable importance has been neglected. Recently a road has been constructed from one side of the cemetery to the other. Previous to this a fence completely surrounded the grounds, but now there are two gaps made in the fence at the extremities of the new road, gaps which are perhaps 20 feet wide or more As a conse quence, cattle in any numbers are at liberty to roam at their own sweet will all over the burial grounds, except those 1 portions which are privately fenced. This, all will admit, is hardly the thing in a civilized country���and surely steps will be taken to remove the difficulty. No doubt, it is the intention to place gates at the gaps mentioned, but in the meantime some temporary barriers should be put across to prevent the intrusions of horses and cattle on "God's acre "���Yours truly, An Observer.
