[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.

An event of no small importance Oixured in I'hoenix Inst Sunday, wlule the good people of the (own were at their weekly devotions. This was the final making of connections between the Old Iionsidcs and Knob Hill mines, the two forces of miners working towards each other having broken through that day. Sonic weeks since a raise' was started in the Old Iionsides, about a tlious- feet from the No. 2 shaft of that property at the 200 foot level. When this raise was up 100 feet, it leached the 200 foot level of the Knob Hill. In the meantine diifting was being done from the 200-foot level of the Knob Hill, in the Aetna giound adjoining, to 1 each the raise fiom the Old Ironsides. Now that the connection has been made, the Granby Co. has a continuous ' line of ore fully 2,500 feet 111 length, running from the north end of the Old Ironsides workings, thiough the Aetna, to the south end ol the Knob Hill wbi kings. This same raise, however, will serve another purpose, as it will at once be continued to the surface, and when widened to the intended size, will be the main working shaft of the combined propei ties, with Jive compartments. The advantage of this method of working is that the ore encountcicd in making the 1a1.se drops down and is tajun out through the No. 2 shaft, the rai<0 itself acting as a-chute for the ore until it is made to the full width required for five compartments. While this is being done some sinking by hand Mil probably be done from the surface, ^facilitate matters. >.-��*�� the ?.��>. compartments,' two. will be used for ipan'ways,' air and watei pipes, etc. The other compartments will be equipped with skips, , which will dump their contents automatically into a crusher located on the surlace. The ciusher in turn, after teducing the ore to a size not exceeding foui inches, will dump the oie automatically into the ore tri'in. When 'the oie reaches the wneltei the same automatic process transfers it to the oie bins: sampler, and finally into the furnaces The economy effected by avoiding rehandling is obvious. Theie would seem to be no limit to the'daily out put in view of the exceptional facilities afforded for mining simultaneously at so many places on these propei ties. Nearly evciy one in Phoenix that can get away is making anangements to take in the Grand Forks Dominion Day celebration next Monday. It is now piactically im|>osrible to secure a team for that puqxise, as they are all engaged, and many will go down on the train. The train will leave Phoenix at 8 a. m., and arrive at Grand Forks at 10 o'clock. \ Returning the train will leave the Forks at ti p.m., arriving at Phoenix a couple "of hours later. This will give those who take this route nearly all day at the smelter city. Extra coaches are expected to be provided by the C. P. R. to accommodate all those who wish to go, and minor has it that, if the coaches urn short bos cars with scats will be furnished rather thati disappoint intending travelers. < The Phoenix Foot-ball-Lacrosse Association will go down in a body, pre- paied to try conclusions with all cornel s, the following being the mem- beis ol the lacrosse team: T.

ORGANIZING A FIRE BRIQADE. Ibe coooooopoo ,0_��O OOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOi QO : fc* ���� DOMINION and OLD IRONSIDES AVE m Both Phones Another Meeting to be Held Tonight at v School House. . * Last Saturday night a meeting was held at the school house of those interested in the formation of a fiie bii- gade. There was a good attendance, notwithstanding the short notice given, and the need of a fire brigade was fully discussed. J. F. Hemenway was chosen chairman and D. J. Matheson secretary of the meeting. Speeches were made touching the object of the gathering and it was decided to pio- ceed as soon as possible with the 01- ganization. A committee, consisting of Messrs. Thompson, Mills, Stuait, McMillan, McRae and Ciaik, to secure the names of those who aie willing to join the volunteer fire brigade was appointed. This committee has been hard at work this week, and will report at a meeting to be held at the schoolhouse tonight. Over 30 have signed the roll already. The city council was to be asked to provide ladders, buckets and rope, in addition lo the apparatus which it is about to place an"order for. It is hoped that there will be a large attendance at the second meeting to be held this evening.: Different In British Columbia. A Manitoba editor says that he' has two subscribers who 'frequently get full, and every time they, are in that condition they come in and pay a yejir in advance. One of them is already credited to 1941 and the fraternity throughout the province are ��� crazy, to find out what brand of whisky .he drinks. They want to offer it as a premium. Two More Raises Completed. Tuesday , of this week two more raises were completed to the glory hole on the Knob .Hill, making five that are now in use at that part of the property. The object of i'making so many raises is to save the handling of ore.it being dumped through them directly into the cars in the tunnel of the mine proper. Surfalj2 work on both the Knob Hill and Old Ironsides is being pushed as fast as possible while the weather is propitious. Phoenix Mas Visited This Now Faawtts Coast Property. Philip W. W. King, of the local Snowshoe staff, has returned from a two weeks' visit tp the.coast. While there he visited the no.v well known Britannia mine on Howe Sound. This is the propeity recently examined by Wm. Yolen Williams and O. B. Smith, for the Miner-Grayes people, and which Jias ���such_ a^shenomenal -��� ore showing. -' "'"'���' : The Britannia is located 27 miles from Vancouver on the British Columbia coast, being about, four miles up Britannia cieek fiom the tide water. The mine is 4,000 feet higher than the sea, making a splendid place foi the operation of an aerial tramway. The smeltersile on the shoie is an ideal one, and if the present plans go through it is likely that the Granby Co.'will build one there. There is also \r'pnty of room for the building up ol -^r'lwn. Spea^;^ of the mine itself, Mr. King sayi^:)at it is certainly a wonderful pioperty, with ore bodies that seem second only to those in Phoenix camp in size. The property has been o|iened up by numerous open cuts and nature has done much to show the size and extent of the zones of copper ore peculiar to that section. In addition to these, theie is a tunnel 120 feet long, with several crosscuts showing some magnificent bodies ot ore. The ore is a chalcopyiite, something like the Phoenix 01 es, but requiring more flutes to smelt. Avei- age samples have given values of eight per cent coppei, besides small gold values. The history of the Britannia mine is quite inteiesting. In the last two years it has been under option several times, and more than once it was thought to be sold at a figure running fiom $500,000 to $1,000,000 or more, but each time something happened to prevent. Howard C. Walters, one ot those interested in the property, has only just returned from a 'trip to London, where he went' to confer with prospective purchasers.''' Mr. Walters, by the way, was once interested in the Boundary country, and was the first to ship ore from our mines, the Spokane and Great Northern Mining Co., in which he was a large holder, having packed rich silver ore out froiii Skylark camp to Marcus in 1892 and and 1893. Then silver went down, and the bond on the property was thrown up. It is not understood that the Miner- Graves people contemplate the outright purchase of the Britannia, but will finance it sufficiently, to insure a continued ore supply* if they take hold of it at all. Forty ore sacks were taken to sample the property, and the samples are now being analyzed by the Granby company. . There is, considerable "reason to think that a real oil boom will be the next thing to strike the Boundary, and and that the Kettle river valley near Grand Forks and Columbia, will be the first scene of operations. In fact, operations in earnest arc expected to begin theie next week. . ' Last Wednesday I ouis Einst, of Nelson, was in town and gave the Pioneer some particulars of the enterprise in which he is interested, and from which he expects to realize a fortune of greater or less- dimensions. Some weeks ago Mr. Ernst, for his principals', bought the J. Ward ranch of 260 acres, near Columbia, and interested A. E. Rand, of New, Westminster. , On examination that gentleman immediately ordeied oil boring machinery, which is now icady foi work. In the meantime a company with a capital of a million dollars is being organized to thoroughly work the proposition. ' A well was first sunk 30 feet, and1 a pipe diiven nearly ten feet further, when a fine quality of high giade - oil came up, that is said to be worth $3 per barrel on the ground Then the machinery was ordeied. Mr. Ei nst has had an experience of eight years in the oil iegions of Petro- lia and Oil City, Ont., and appears to firmly believe that he has found the real thing in the Boundary. He as- seits that-the formation is exactly light for oil���limestone, sandstone and slate. Land in all diiections has been bought and taken on lease and option in the Kettle rivei valley, and also up the north fork where excellent oil indications are said to have been ^d jsepvered. Should the oiFprove' to'be" what is expected, theie is no doubt but that,a large population will be aitiacted to the Boundary. Immense .fortunes have been made of late years from oil in California, and much money is now being spent in the state of Washington, directly south of the Bo'undaiy, in following up oil indications. Next week Thursday, the 4th of July, is the day set lor stalling the first oil lig neai Columbia. Mr. Ernst visited Phoenix foi the purpose oi securing options on more oil lands. <K*y%,<V*y*v%y%v%,'%*^%,'*V*V*y%* Our Mines j* j* AND j* Jt .smelters. LATE NEWS NOTES FROM THE SEVERAL CAMPS. PROGRESS OP BUILDING OPERATIONS. Several Large Blocks Under Way and Others Projected. Building operations may now be said to be quite active jn Phoenix, at least $40,000 worth of structures now being actually in course of construction, with several others to be started in the near future- Stephen Tripp has got the foundation laid for the new $3,000 school building on Knob Hill avenue, and that'long needed edifice is now beginning to become a realty. Martin Madden is rushing the work on the building he is erecting for A. I1'. McMillan, at the corner of Knob Hill avenue and First street. 'I'he frame work is practically all up and 'the loof will be on next week. Architect Curtis of Nelson, came over Wednesday, to see how things were pro- giessing. Excavation for the $15,000 Bank block, to be erected by Messrs. Graves and Williams, is now nearly complete, and the native granite is ready for laying for the first story. John Wilson will get at this next week, The contractors are Smith Bros. The structure will be 60x100 in size, and will be located opposite the McMillan block on Knob Hill avenue, with the Eastern Townships bank and the Hunter.Kendrick Co. as occupants of the lower floor.' Several cars of lumber for the Phoenix General Hospital arrived eaily in the week, and the contractor, W. R. Lee, now has a good sized force at work on the foundations"."- The wing to be erected at first will be 32x120 feet in size, and will command a view of nearly the entire city. In the near future both the Roman Catholic church and the Church of England will commence building operations, on the same block with the hospital.' Mori in, Thompson & Co.'s new two-story store building, on Dominion avenue, is rapidly nearing completion, being enclosed and roofed. The firm hopes to be able to move in some time next week. On Knob Hill avenue the two- stoiy building, to be occupied in part by J. B.

R., are still on strike for higher wages, from the Atlantic to the Pacific. The wages that have been heretofore paid for this class of labor on Canada's greatest railway ran from $1.35 to $1.65 per day, according to report. Tn some cases men have been hired to take the places of the striking men, but not with any degree of success. The Boundary branch men are also out with the rest. Trains are running regularly. ���i The R. Bell sent out a .shipment ol two cars of ore this week to the Gianby smelter for test pui poses. This week the Granby smeltei has treated 4,517 tons, and the shipments from Phoenix weie 4,819 tons���neaily 700 tons pei day. Twenty men aie at work at the Winnipeg mine.

On account of the improvement of the quality of ore now being taken out of the Mother Lode the number of ore sorters has been reduced from eight to three.

McKenzie; vice- president, A. S. Williamson; secretary, Bert Detcher; treasurer, J. L. Williams, guard, Harry B. Schooley. The union now has a membership of 16 and is in a flourishing condition, Cattle King's Firm Takes Over the Only Op* position in this Section. Vaughan & Mclnnis have sold out to P. Burns & Co. While the deal was known to be pending, no announcement has been made of the actual sale until this week. The sale mdudes the store and lot in which Vaughan & Mclnnis conducted busi ness in Phoenix, the slaughter house at Hartford Junction, the stock ot cattle, hogs and sheep on hand and the good will of the business P. Hums &: Co. will take possession Monday, July ist. Vaughan & Mclnnis have conducted a ictail meat business in Phoenix for the last three years or theieabouts, and have been veiy popular with the ictail tiade. They bought and fatten ed theii own cattle, and weie independent of the usual souices cf supply. Some weeks since negotiations were be gun looking to the taking ovei ol theii liusiness by P. Burns & Co., the latter fnm wishing to supply Vaughan & Mclnnis with the meat needed. But this did not meet the views of the selling firm; they preferred tD sell outright and would do so if they could get their price. This they have evi J den'tly done, although it is not made public as to the exact figure. 1\ Burns & Co., although having a large number of shops all through this section, and practically controlling the meat business, are well thought of generally: It is the intention to conduct two shops in Phoenix, one in each end of the city, and Mr. Brown is to continue with the old Vaughan & Mclnnis shop, while, as of old, Joe Stir- rett presides over the chopping block at the store opposite'the postoffice. Mr. Mclnnis informs the Pioneer that his firm will now confine themselves to their ranch interests, which are extensive, and he may open a feed grain and produce establishment in Phoenix. It is to be hoped that he will remain here, as he is a man that the city will regret to lose, either on the council board or in general business. Total, tons 38,008 24,868 RECAPITULATION.

Parker, of the Dominion Copper Co., for use on' the Brooklyn and Stemwinder, were finally received. The large machines weie at once unloaded at the respective mines, and the Brooklyn hoist is now in place on a bed of concrete six feet thick. Both of the hoists came from the Ottumwa Iron Works, at Ottumwa, Iowa, and were about two months late in arriving. That for the Brooklyn is 12x16 inches in size, 80 hoise powei, and weighs 24,500 pounds. It has a capacity of hoisting 500 tons of ore each 24 houis from the 250 or 350 foot levels. The Stemwinder hoist is a 10x12 machine, 50 horse power,and weighs 14,500 pounds. Its capacity in hoisting is about 300 tons daily. The skips to be used with the hoists have not yet arrived on the scene ot operations, nor has the compiessor propei. The new machineiy for these mines was ordered about the middle of February. 1'���**-*- For sale at a special bargain,- one new upright Gerhard Heintzman Art Piano, very latest" design, handsome walnut case, for $425, regular price $606.

A communication was read from the Phoenix hades and Labor Council, le- questing the council to pay the night watchman $3 per day and abolish the lee system. The night watchman now gets a salaiy of $85 per month. Joe Henderson's bill of $15 for work on the streets was ordered paid. Street Grade By Law No. 23 was iead and passed the first time. It establishes the grades on Dominion avenue, Knob Hill avenue, Railroad (upper Knob Hill) avenue and Third ���street.. The city solicitor reported progress on the agreement with Mr. Graves and associates for a water and light system for the city. He was instructed to have the papers ready for consideration at a special session of the council, to be held Friday morning at 10 o'clock, and the council then adjourned to that time. At yesterday's meeting of the council, it was found that the water and light franchise by-law would require more time to consider, and it will come up at next week's meeting. Street Grade By-Law No. 23 was finally passed, and the clerk was directed to notify the voluntary fire brigade that the necessary apparatus would be provided. After directing that the city books be audited the first week in July, the council adjourned till July 3. Reeves, the confectioner, in the new Delahay block, has secured the agency for the celebrated Hazelwood ice cream. He also has an excellent soda fountain, which supplies cooling draughts of soda water and ice cream soda. * 1 ^Kefir^! ��t nvVMVSffmSSiffffi :** ,'v��. >,*,ij,\.,"i TilUSffA M K I, >i��l THE PHOENIX PIONEER'. ���MM M������������������������������������*��� ������MO��*��Mt�����������������+���<��������������������������� I The Canadian Bank of Commerce Capital, $8,ooo,ooo.

'I he former can go where he pleases, even on to occupied land, and stake a mineral claim., 'i'he latter is not required to 'pay taxes until'his mine is a producer. There may be ambiguous sections'in the law; but the letter ot the law is fair and the spirit is liberal; Much of the fault finding is mere senseless clamor, made by men who are - failures' as individuals.���Nelson Tribune.

"But then some are born kickers; some become so from associations-, some owing to a torpid Jiver growl ' without thinking, and some again combat every thing that does noi entirely coincide with their all- wise views.

CoaccMbM WmM be Necessary to Establish Ibe Maitry. Last Saturday's Rossland Minei had the following interview with Jay P. Graves. Touching on the refinery refinery proposition which the Miner- Graves syndicate has had in hand for some time, Mr. Graves said: ','We are still looking into the matter, and have had Air. Williams, Mr. Flumerfelt and others at the coast looking into the qrzzu^a there. The first step on our j art would be the construction of a smelter. After this was in good running order for say six months ��e would have, a better idea of the field for a refinery. J anticipate that the question of consti uct- ing the smelter at the coast will be determined within 60 days. In event of its being decided to go ahead with the smelter a year would have to elapse lieforc the-enterprise would be com pleted and in running order, and another si\ months would pass by before we fully determined as,to the refinery, so that the matter is very much in the future as yet. "If the refinery were established it would be exacted that the federal government would take action in respect to the copper industry along similar lines to their policy regarding i.steel and lead industries. "Concessions ��� ol Jiis nature would be necess.iry to a j new industry,'in view of the duty on refined cop|ier , entering into the United States, rendering it essential that Canadian copjier should be placed on an even basis with copper_ refined in the States."
