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."@en, ""@en ; edm:aggregatedCHO "https://open.library.ubc.ca/collections/xphoenix/items/1.0186093/source.json"@en ; dc:format "application/pdf"@en ; skos:note " ���^y<2^^^^'. *��V- ���.,������.���������������***��� [ / | OVER.... f , 4j 4oo MEN j ' /f| I Are working in the | * ' u8 ��� ��� -.��� .,.,,] 'Plmnnlv ! j mines around Plioenix. .����.,������,*.��,���������������� j The Payroll ot\" �� !

The first payment was promptly made, and when the second came due, both it and the third were made at tlie Merchants Bank of Halifax, in Grand Forks��� leaving'bnly the last conditional payment to he. made to complete the terms of the bond. This1 speaks well for the opinion that the Mountain 'View! stockholders have of the ''property, that they should, pay up the cash due on the bond six months ahead of time. They s\"eem to think they have a good thing. The chief' stockholders are J.;W. Stewart, Pat Welch, Jno. C. / Scrafford, John Dorsey, G. Arthur Rendell, V. Mon- nier, Alex Miller and others. When the Mountain View was bonded last October, development was immediately started : on the: property and was' kept up nearly all winter. A 6o'foot tunnel was driven to crosscut the ledge, and a shaft was strfik at the old workings,; from which considerable drifting was done. Assays of a satisfactory character were, obtained, and a few weeks ago tenders for a contract were called for. This has not yet been let, hut it is understood that arrangements are being made with a view to the early resumption of development on the property. B. C. Mine Matters. ' The work of bricking in the two 80 horse power boilers lor the lo-drlll air compressor has been completed, and ever) thing is now read) .for. operation of the new plant, with the exception of the iron cage. This is now on the way from Montreal, and will arrive in a couple of weeks. Up to this date about 3,000 tons of ore have been shipped since February, all of which went to the Trail smelter, and returned a general average of about $20 per ton, according to reports. Shipments are still being made but more care is being taken with sorting than heretofore. There are,about 65 men employed at theB. C. When the new machinery is all completed and in running order Mr. Scrafford, the superintendent, expects that at least 120 men. will be required in and around the mine. Rich Hartford Ore. This week, a Pioneer man visited the Hartford group, two miles from town, were development has been going on steadily all winter and spring. David Evans, the former superintendent, has been succeeded by J. A. Wil- foltowing'to say about this great property: ��� ..���VAWJwew this vein ran through our ground, for it showed in an open cut on the railroad and 'we have now- stripped it at a point 300 feet west of tlie shaft. It has 20 feet of good copper ore and we are now making an open cut along it. Work will \"be started-immediately to extend the lower tunnel for a distance of about 300 feet where we.expect to tap this new ledge at.a distance of about 200 feet. In Boundary Mines. About 3,200 feet of work have been done on theB. C. mine. Rumors are current that work will be resumed on the Oro Denoro about the 15A inst. The Gold Drop mine is putting in a new,air cylinder and ��� grate bars for the compressor. A. C. Flumerfelt, of Victoria, has been appointed assistant general manager of the Miner-Graves syndicate properties. '.. R. S. Fraser, of Phoenix is doing assessment 'work on his claims the Evening,Star and Sibley, in Wellington camp. The ore bunkers of the Old Ironsides, Knob Hill and Victoria, estimated to hold S.ooo tons, will be filled some day next week. v: Oil the Winnipeg 'some 3,500 feet of work have been done. It is expected that development on this property will be resumed shortly. It is reported that Judge Spinks has sold,the B. C. No. 2 in Summit camp, t'ojoriathan Miller and J. IS. McLaren, of Vancouver, for $5,000. On the Snowshoe the tunnel, just off the wagon road, started a short time since, is now in 160 feet. Some nice ore has been encountered. ��� Jack Hanby and Simon Baumberg- er Visited the R. Bell and Remington claims in Summit camp last Wednesday, on which they expect to start development shortly. George Petty, of Three Forks B. C., who owns the Monitor mine, now bonded for $25,000, was in town Tuesday. He is doing assessment on some claims in this vicinity. The Athelstan Gold and Copper Mining Co., Ltd., lias been incorporated with a capital of $50,000, being in one million shares of 5 cents each, to develop the Athelstan claim in Wellington camp. When Shipments Begin, Will Be Steadily Kept Up���Expected To Start Next Week ���Big Boiler Being Repaired. \"We expect to begin .shipments of ore some time next week, and continue shipping steadily from that time on,\" said W. J. Porter, of the Golden Crown mine; to a Pioneer man, who visited the property, last Thursday. Tuesday night the C.-.P. R. tracklayers finished putting down the steel to the new ore bunkers, which have a capacity of 400 tons, and are of course filled, with a couple of thousand tons of good ore on the dump. Mr. Porter courteously showed.the Pioneer representative over the property, and furnished details of the condition of the work. ��� The Golden Crown was located in July, 1893, by Mr. Porter and amid many difficulties he continuously developed the mine, which is now turn- ing out to be such a splendid property, by himself. About three years ago he succeeded in getting the Brandon and Gold Crown Mining Co., organized, with a capital of #1,500,000, of which he is still the largest individual stockholder. The outside capital came from Brandon, -Man. The new corporation has continued- the develop ment of the property, almost without interruption since, and now there; are nearly 2,250 feet of all kinds of work done in the mine. The ore encountered is a copper sulphide, with gold values, and thus far only that was taken out which was encountered in the course of devlopment. Development To Date. The main shaft of the Golden Crown has attained a depth of 322 feet, with drifts at the 100, 150 and 250-foot levels. At the 100-foot level, a driiVeast; ward has been made for 369 feet, with 46 feet of crosscuts. On the same level drifting to the west has prqgress- boiFer was burned out a short time ago, and the smaller 35 horse power boiler has been used while the larger boiler is being repaired. These repairs will be completed by Monday, when, the full force will be put on again. At present 18 or 20 men are employed. This mine was the first i(i the Boundary or in the province to use a cage, which was made at the mine. FIELD OF POLITICS; More Japs Coming. ~ A late dispatch fromTacoma says: Officers of the'.. steamship Tacoma, which arrived from Yokohama yesterday, in speaking of the'great number of Japanese flocking to the JUuited. States and British .Columbia, says it was current talk in Yokohama that there would he 30,000 Japs leave their native country lor British Columbia alone this summer, and it is understood the number coming to the United States will be enormous. The steamer Tosu Maru is now due on the Sound with 1900 Japs on board, and the Dalyn Vostock, one of the Tacoma liners, will be here in a few days with .900 more. Hon.

Is Now Less Than a Distant ed 130 feet. At the 150-foot level, after cross- cutting 60 feet, drifting on the lead to the cast was done for 30 feet, and a raise to the 100-foot level was made. Drifting west on this level was done for 102 feet, .with a raise of 27 feet. On the 300-foot level, crosscutting north for a distance of 600 feet has been done, and a 30-foot ore budy not on the surface was encountered. It is the intention to connect this crosscut with the old workings, where a tunnel 322 feet long was driven. This is now perhaps 150 feet away, but 300 feet higher than the level. On this same level crosscutting in a southerly direction has been done for 120 feet. In addition to the old 322-foot tunnel, where a number of ore bodies were cut, there is a 50-foot shaft show- good ore, almost from the surfabe.

Knowing the interest of our people in the advent of the railway track to Phoenix, the Pioneer has kept close watch on the steel gang, in the C.P.R. employ, this week. The track^iayirig- outfit, with about 125 men, came up to Hartford Junction from Eholt last week, and at once began laying switches and sidetracks. Monday morning the work of putting down the iron on the spur to the Golden Crown was started, being finished in two days. Wednesday the start for'Phoenixi frqirf^HarUordiJu'rjc- tion, was niade in'd��Litearnest, and if nothing-unforeseen delays,] we s'hould hear and see the steel gang in a couple of days more; , On this, work of finishing up the spurs the tracklaying.. machine is hot- used. The rails are.laid by. the old method of hand work. Even so, how^ ever, with plenty of help^ good progress is made when the men do not have to wait for ties or for iron. Two locomotives are used���one at the front and the other to bring up the material, and to assist in the general work of ballasting the track already laid, which is going, on all the time. Conductors Durkee\" and'Newman are in charge of the two trains, while R.H. McCoy is foreman of the men putting down the rails aud ties. It is expected that Hartford Junction will be the headquarters of this force of men for a couple of months, until all the spurs are completed and ballasted. ��� Railway Notes. . One of the work engines ran off the track on the Hartford Y last Sunday. A force of carpenters is busy on a neat section house at Hartford Junction. One or two parties \\ are talking of putting up hotels at Hartford Junction. During the week many visitors from Phoenix have walked out to the scene of operations. A telegraph office is being established at Hartford Junction for the accommodation of the tracklayers. Poles and wire will be run into Phoenix without delay. The steam shovel, which was working about three-quarters of a mile below Hartford, struck a mineral ledge Tuesday and had to be moved, delaying operations only a day. BOUNDARY MliNES. Supt. Mahan, of the Jewel mine, at Long Lake, states that this propeity, which recently shut down, will start up again in about six weeks, when work will also begin on the new mill and cyanide plant lot treating the ore. A contract has been let for hauling 5,000 tons of City of Paris ore to the Granby smelter at $4 per ton. The ore comes from the 150 and 250 foot levels of the mine, where it is said sonic hisjh grade ore has been struck. ��<5 #^<0$,ee, 3&4s tfiS &V& m& ??��Street, Old Ironsides Towusite. Boundary Creek Telephone 521; Columbia 2. 0:1 cob ������I GO One month from last Thursday will be election day in this province, but it would take a man gifted with the art of prescience to predict the outcome with any ceitainty. It is but natural that both sides should make all kinds of claims. Who ever saw a political campaign without it? In Rossland riding the contest, is between Hon. Chas. H. Mackintosh and Hon. Smith Curtis, but in other parts of the province it is not so clear cut, as there are Cotton men, Martin men, Wilson and other kinds of conservatives, to say nothing of independents and a lew- other kinds ol nominees. In this riding Mr. Mackintosh's supporters in Rossland made the firs; tour of the constituency, but it is said, did not make much headway, lor various reasons. Rumors were afloat that Mr. Mackintosh would pull out of the race, but it is now said he will fight it out to a finish. He is used to thij sort of thing, and when he gels into the thick ot* it, we may expect politics hereabouts to grow a trifle warmer. ';��� Hut in the meantime Hon. Smith Curtis, the liberal candidate, has been letting no grass grow under his feet. With the premier he last week visited the most important towns in the riding, Le.ng gr;eteJ by Jari.e audiences, and it is Jaimed with distinctly favorable resulis to the candidate, ihe trades conncil of Rossland has endorsed Mr. Curtis almost unanimously. Up to date Mr. Curtis seems to be the favorite with the 11 a'ority of the voters. The list of candidates printed below is lar from complete, but was nearly so when made out.

Then the main stieet being only 15 feet wide, but little chance was given to fight the flames when they were once well started. Although the water supply is said to be excellent and the fire boys worked hard, they had little cr ,110 opportunity to do effective work.
