[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.

C. ^^m&^%^^^^^' * EMOV. MACKINTOSH Held a Great Meeting Last Evening in Phoenix. STANDIM ROOM WAS AT A P8EMIUM With Mayar Ooadeve, of iRossUnd, a Very En- Entnoslastlc Cinpalgn Gathering Waa Hsd'"R.B.K��rr.AlM Spoke. This week Hon. Chas. H. Mackintosh, one of the candidates for the legislative assembly, in opposition to Hon. Smith Curtis, has been addressing the voters of the Boundary. Last Saturday he held.a meeting at Crand Forks, Monday at Columbia and Wednesday at Greenwood: R. B. Kerr, of Phoenix, appeared on the platform in each place in opitosition to Mr. Mackintosh, and at Greenwood' Mr. Curtis was also present. This week the meetings have been gotten up by Mr. Mackintosh ' and his supporters; Next week Mr. Curtis will hold meetings and invite the Mackintosh-people to be present. All of the meetings this week have been well attended and it appears that the voters have given close attention. ���.'Last'night the meeting was held in the spacious hall of Phoenix Miners' Union, which notwithstanding the drenching rain, prevailing, was crowded to the doors. Besides Mr. Mackintosh, Mayor Goodeve spoke. Smith Curtis.was unable to be present, but R. B; .Kerr'washeard in his behalf.' .The chairman, Mr. Punch, introduced Mr. Mackintosh, who opened the ball and spoke for an hour. He said that although he had been called by his opponents the deadly enemy of the workingmen, he had been a friend of labor for over 25 years, and quoted a telegram from a leader among workingmen at Ottawa to this effect. He referred to Ralph Smith, and what the latter has said in criticism of Hon. Joseph Martin at some length, and also took up the Chinese and Japanese question. As usual, the eight-hour law* came'in for its full share of attention, and the governor fully explained his position in regard to it, and how, if ejected,"he proposed to uphold it in every way. J Mr. Mackintosh asserted that Mr. Curtis had taken advantage of the former's absence to make several statements that were not facts. In this connection he spoke especially of ibis connection with the exposition at Regina, and also went into details about the famous Sunset mine deal, in which he and Mr. Curtis were both mixed up. He did not believe in state ownership of railways, and ridiculed Mr. Martin's proposed coast to Kootenay railway. The governor paid several pretty compliments to the ladies, of which there were quite a number present, and was repeatedly applauded by the audience for the sentiments he expressed. He evidently had a large share of the audience with him. Mr. Kerr lor Mr. Curtis. R. B. Kerr, who spoke on behalf of Hon. Smith Curtis, was the ..only one to represent his side of th**fe political issues. He was cheered to the echo when he arose, showing that th*e min ister of mines also had many friends and admirers in the. audience. He was allowed '45 minutes to 'explain' his views, which he did in a style that seemed to please a large number. Mr. Kerr assailed Mr. Mackintosh's platform and policy, especially in regard to the stand he quoted him to have taken two months since on the eight-hour question, which he claimed was quite different from' his attitude now. He stated that Mr. Mackintosh was in effect running as a Tumerite, and asked the audience if they wished to elect that kind.of a man���to-which many answered, "No." He also spoke ofthe final success of some of the Australian colonies in re-enacting dishallowed acts in regard to, Chinese and Japanese. He thought.that the great aim of the Mackintosh shakers" was to conceal the real issues before the people. Mayor floodeve's Sp'eadld Speech. Following Mr. Kerr, the governor made a few remarks to refute some of the former's statements, and then Mayor, Goodeve, oi Rossland, took the floor. Mr. Goodeve is by far the ablest and most polished platform s|)caker yet heard in the Boundary in this campaign. He never gets rattled, never hesitates, and is ever ready to turn an interruption to his own advantage. He usually closes the political performance where he speaks with a masterly peroration on behalf of his candidate, Mr. Mackintosh, and last evening was no exception.to the rule. Mr. Goodeve proceeded to tear down Mr. Kerr's argument, piece by piece, to his own satisfaction and that of a large number of others, if the applause is any criterion^, He went exhaustively into the merits of the coast to Kootenay railway plank of the Martin platform, and accused Mr. Martin of not being sound on the eight-hour question, quoting Mr. Martin's own words to prove his charges. He gave Mr. Martin's proposed re-enacting scheme of disallowed : acts a bitter scoring, especially as regards the Oriental labor question, and did the premier up to a rich and golden brown generally. Rossland's chief executive speaks clearly and interestingly, and was thoroughly at home with his subject ... '������'������.:,;' To a Pioneer man-Mr. Mackintosh stated that all over the riding everything was going his way,.and,he,had..no doubt whatever of his'success- at the polls two weeks from today. lie said that Rossland was sure and now hej was cofindent of the Boundary. On the other hand, Mr. Kerr is of the opinion that Mr. Curtis will undoubtedly be elected. Still Oa the List. A solicitor in this riding acting on behalf of the estate of a man who has been dead for some time, has received the following communication, addressed, to the deceased by the well known Rossland offcer: "Dear Sir,���I am to inform you that objection has been taken to your name remaining upon the voters' list for the Rossland riding of West Kootenay, upon the ground that you have been dead for some time. You will kindly let me know by return mail whether you are dead or not. If you are dead, let me know, and I will strike your name off, but if not, of course your name will remain as it is. Yours truly, "f. Kirkup." RAILS TO ORE BINS Laid To Old Ironsides Last Monday. ALSO TO THE VICTORIA BUNKERS Amid TootlaglWhlsUes, Flylof Buollnj And a " Concourse of Cltiieaa, Tbe iLutj Spike Was Driven. The new Mint hotel will be opened to the public tonight. At 11.45 Monday noon the last rail was laid and the final spike driven on the spur to the Old Ironsides and Victoria bunkers, just above town. The occasion was duly celebrated by a gathering of the local officials of the Miner-Graves syndicate,.together with a large number of citizens.. On the ore bunkers, 65 feet above the track, flew a Union Jack, and as the last piece of steel was put down the whistles of the surrounding mines broke out into a deafening paean of joy���in'fact, awakening the night shift men round about, who were then in the arms of Morpheus. The tracklaying train was driven by engine No. 312, with Fred Clatterbuck at the throttle and W. J. Elliott as fireman. Pat Gorman was conductor, with Messrs. Clark and Thomas as brakemen. H. A. Durkee, who ' has been in general charge of. the tracklaying on this entire Boundary line and spurs, was on hand to see that everything was as it should be. As soon as the track was laid work was discontinued for a time, while the men enjoyed the refreshments that had been generously provided by the hotel men of Phoenix arid the Phoenix Brewery. It is needless to say that full justice was done. Track Dowa lo Brooklya. Tuesday the work of putting down the rails to the Brooklyn was started, after a number of switches and side tracks had been laid near the depot. The track reached the mine on Thursday and was laid to the point where the trestle is to be put in over the wagon road to the Breakenridge * part of town.- .-: ��� *-��� It had been exacted that the track men would be paid off; at Hartford Junction, but Tuesday night, after work, R. H. McCoy, the division superintendent, ordered the boarding cars hauled up. to the siding at Phoenix, and the 125 men were given their checks on the Bank of Montreal. This month the payroll was over $4,000. Work on the Phoenix depot started early in the week. The structure has been framed, and is now fast approaching completion, l'hoenix will enjoy the distinction of being the only town on the new Boundary railway in which the station will be ready for general use by the time that passenger trains are running.

To tbe Electors, Rouland RldlaK, West Ktoo- *��������'��� Electors: I am a candidate for the provincial legislature ot the approaching election*, and i favor the following policy: >. An administration composed of those whose practical experience will: enable them to deal promptly aud efficiently with all detail*! connected with thedepartmcnUovcr which they preside. ;,3. Sanctioning no large expenditure* other than realty necessary, until the ability of the province to bear such Is clearly ascertained. This should not apply to bridges, trails and roads in newly discovered mining camps. 3. Preparation of full, authentic and substantial financial statements ofthe province, together with laud and lorest areas and their probable values. 4. Convinced ofthe wisdom of assisting railroad construction ns proved by the experience of other provinces, I would favor a system of bonuses, surrounded by reasonable checks and safeguards. Without feeders to the main lines, the settlement in the Interior must naturally lie retarded, the const cities being deprived of many supply advantages accmiiig from colonisation, Immigration nnd internal improvement*). At the present' juncture no thinking man would commit himself to a snap decision in connection with the subject of government ownership of railways. It Is plausible, but I would lie unwilling to bind.the province to such a gigantic proposition involving many complex issues, until convinced that the resources of British Columbia justify such an experiment. ' 5. The erection and maintenance of a technical school of milieu. 6. Amendment* to the mining taw, perfecting the existing system of mine inspection, thus making it effective, and of greater public advantage. Ka'rthcrniort, legislation bearing upon placer claims, claim jumping and assessment work, relieving as much as possible the prospector from protracted litigation aud consequent legal complications. '7. I'repar&tiou of carefully compiled maps, showing trail, water and railway routes traversing mining districts, together with such official information as would assist those engaged in exploratory work. '���������!:���' 8. Formulating a policy which would assure to British Columbia a foremost place iu Great Britain, thus securing the province prominence commensurate with its resources. 9. Destroying as far as possible all germs of discontent and consequent bitterness, by denting with public works irrespective of locality or political affiliation. :o. Development of farming, dairying, stock raising and fruit growing resources by increased encouragement to agricultural societies, when by such assistance it may be demonstrated that reasonable benefits will accrue to the province. 11. increasing, the usefulness of a bureau of labor and mining statistics by the appointment of a competent official, whose sen-Ices could be utilized in harmonizing conflicting interests and arbitrating upon issues threatening to disturb the peace and progress of any community, 12. Ministers of the Crown and their officials being stewards acting for the public,! would insist upon due expedition iu the issue of crown patents, and prompt departmental, settlement of disputed claims, the taxes paid by unincorporated settlements to be devoted, as far as possible, towards assisting the taxpaying district. .,- 13. Careful consideration ofthe rearrangement of various constituencies, removing if possible tbe question from the political arena, by such legislation as under the circumstances, may bc deemeil advisable; due care being taken to secure to outlying districts, as well as rapidly, increasing towns, just representation. 14. To deal with various labor questions on rational lines, favoring no hasty legislation, but consulting all interests likely to be affected. The result of recent mediation, particulraly iu Rossland, is an object lesson, conclusively proving that all parties are willing to settle vexed questions upon a broad aud therefore practical basis. 15. In the present campaign I see no necessity for alliance with, nor hostility toward, federal authority, nor am I willing to commit myself or those who support me to an unreserved pledge iu favor of measures propounded by the present leader of the government or others who have aunouueed themselves as leaders. Some of the measures advocated must commend themselves to the electors; but I perer reserving to myself the right to judge the men behind the measures, for these will be called upon to crystatlize them into legislation and give departmental effect to whnl they profess to believe iu. 16. Instilling into the minds of the rising generation instincts of fealty to the province and loyalty to the British empire, and to commemorate the deeds of those who have surrendered their lives in defense of that empire, as well as those who are now fighting its battles. With this intent, I would advocate such legislation as would make statutory provisions for the floating of the British flag, during the hours of tuition, over all schools throughout the province. 1 remain your obedient sen-ant, C.H.

Many parties were made up for this purpose and went down to the mouth of Boundary Creek. From many places of business ami private residences the national colors were displayed. Many are ol the opinion that Phoenix should get up something of this kind for the near future. The railway will soon be in operation to this point, and large numbers would take advantage of it to see the place where the mines are. Last Sunday at the ("olden Grown mine two box cars were loaded with ore, and have since, been shipped to the C. 1'. R. smeller at Trail,'' which concern is desirous of securing all the Boundary ore that can be obtained. Mrs. Porter, wife of General Manager \V. J. Porter, of the ("olden Crown, had the honor of placing the first ore in the cars: R. H; McCoy, division construction su|>erintendent of the railway west of Grand Forks, state* that by next week, he expects to have the regular ore cars, that can lie' so easily loaded and unloaded. This will greatly facilitate the work of handling the ore, both at the mine and smelter. He also states that another side track .will be laid at the Golden Crown, which will be a great convenience. ";" This is the first ore ever sent to the smelter from the Golden Crown, with the exception,of five tons shipped a month ago to Denver, for testing by the loder pyritic process. From now on shipments will be made from this property as fast as the 'cars can be had. :��� -V-- Placlaj Cage la OM IraasJdei Shaft.

The War Eagle is now running eight- hour shifts, and making good progress in drifting from the 100-ioot level, east and west. Recently in excavating for a powder house on the Victoria a fine ledge of copper ore was opened up almost 011 the surface. The Enterprise, in Long Lake camp, is to resume ojierations soon. The ore is rich and the property is developed to the 100-foot level. The Gold Drop will doubtless make its usual average of about 200 feet of development during May. Two drills are working steadily. On the Evening Star and Sibley in Wellington camp, where the Eraser boys have been working, a fine lead of copper ore has been uncovered. R. B. Thomas has made a complete topographical survey of Central cam*> for the Majestic mining company, one of-the. Miner-Graves syndicate companies. The new tunnel under the railway spur, on the Snowshoe. is now in over 200 feet, and some of the best ore yet seen on the property is being encountered. W. T. Smith informs the Pioneer that operations on the Brooklyn wilt be resumed some time in June. It is probable that shipping will be one of the first items on the program. H. N. Galer, treasurer of the Granby company, Grand Forks, visited the Hartford mine Sunday with some friends, and 'dropped over to Phoenix. He is much pleased with the excellent quality of ore being taken from the property. Alfred J. McMillan, manager of the Rossland and Slocan (B.C.) syndicate- owning, the Snowshoe mine, who has. been spending the winter in London, has returned to British Columbia. One of the largest stockholders in the- Snowshoe, Mr. G. E. Waterlow, a wealthy London printer and publisher, will visit l'hoenix this summer.

It may not be generally known, but it is nevertheless a fact, that one of greatest incentives to.the C P. R. in the construction of the Boundary branch, was the ore tonnage to be obtained from mines located in and around Phoenix camp. Other camps undoubtedly have splendid mines, that will in time prove profitable, to the owners, and profitable to the railway also on account of their large and steady shipments. But not" one of them can show as many mines actually developed to the shipping stage as are now found right here in Phoe- 1 nix. * Some who have not studied the situation may have been a bit skeptical about it, but the fact remains just • »the same. Stick 'ir pin h'ere. Phoenix has- more mines—mines,.* not prospects -7-ready to ship ore than any other camp in the Boundary. The C.P.R. is,'not famous for building railways for the fun there is in it. As a rule, the company secures a goodly bonus and in addition bonds tlie new line for its cost or more. Then, of vcourse, the people pay the freight, literally and metaphorically.. Even thiugh the rates are high to a degree, '' the railway is'welcomed, and a second will probably lie' more so'when it materializes. ' ' •" *! . ' - ' The C.K P. R. management was well aware, from private sources,' of the.itn- inense ore* bodies in the'hills around Phoenix. The railway was not "going it blind," when it began the work 61 construction on' this'line at* West Rob- son. It will beyond question reap a rich harvest,from,the investment as ..

C. , IT HAS NO PARALLEL , This week all loyal British subjects, the world over, have been celebrating * -Queen's-Victoria's Birthday, in a more or less' demonstrative manner. Here ^.1 southern British Columbia our American cousins also have been gladly, taking part in the celebration. The reign of the present Queen is without parallel in the history oi Britain. QueenVictoriawasadaughter of ttaDuke ol Kent, who, by the way, was at one time a resident of our own Canada/^ Born on"the j24th of May, 1819, the Queen ascended the throne at the age of 18 years, in 1837, and has therefore been a beloved ruler for 64 years—longer than any other British sovereign , , After * becoming Queen, "Victoria manied Albert Edward, a prince in a noble house in Prussia. The union was a happy and a. prolific one. Ouring the reign of Queen Victoria the British empire and- in fact the entire civilized world has made wonder- . 'ul progress in ever) line. .The empire itself has expanded till, as the sa>ing goes, the British drumbeat can now be heard aiound the globe. The British flag, whercer seen, is the synonym of progress and protection, and has come to be known as such in the farthest corners of the earth. '' The good Queen is now getting to he pretty well along in life, being now in her Sad }car, and it is safe to say that she is loved by more people than anj rther ruler, of whatsoever degree. The peoples of nearly all countries have great respect tor her majesty, and . this has grown steadily as she has grown older. When her reign is closed it will probably go down the halls of time as the most beneficent, in all respects, yet recorded in history, ancient or modern.

No. i tunnel, about 175 feet further west, is 84 feet long. Twenty feet from the mouth ore was struck, and it continued solid for 18 feet. ��� This working is thirty-nine feet below the ore body, uncovered by the railway. The work of cross-cutting and blocking these immense ore bodies is a simple matter. Ore was also encountered in considerable quantities in the shaft. The present plant, which will be enlarged shortly, consists of a 35 horsepower boiler, 15 horse-power hoist, and a two-drill compressor. Throughout the various ore bodies have a perceptible dip to the southwest. Recently, while stripping the surface at a .height of 360 feet from No. 2 tunnel, the miners struck a ledge or, deposit of magnetic iron, largely impregnated with copper pyrites. The ore on the dump is upwards of four hundred tons. An experimental;.shipment from.three different workings averaged $18 per ton and netted $11 per ton after payment freight and treatment charges. The principal values are in copper, the gold and silver being quite subsidiary. A Case Lot of ALARM CLOCKS BREMNER&CO. Millkk Blk., Phoenix, B.

Nearly a Tho* und Feet of Work Has Been ���;��� * t,'. -.-,.��� ... iDone. So Far. ; ' The'Oro Denoro, iri Summit oarrip, was recently visited by Correspondent Harkin, who wrote about it as follows: Leading shareholders are Hon. Smith Curtis, minister of mines, and Mr. Ross Thompson, the founder of Ross- lanjL Development work has been confined to a large hill, whose top is surmounted by a shaft and powerhouse. Why a shaft was sunk at this point seems to be a mystery, when hettter results, at a reduced cost, could have been accomplished by driving a series of tunnels. However, a radical change of pro-, gramme was adopted when Mr. Nei Cochrane, the superintendent, assumed his duties in November last. At an earlier period he had been��'/consulted in an advisory capacity. His recommendations did not meet with approval. He urged the abandonment of the shaft work and declared the Oro Denoro to be a tunnelling proposition, pure and simple, A few month's later his theories "were confirmed when the railroad graders uncovered twenty feet of ore in a curve half-way up the hill. Mr. Cochrane on taking charge, at once proceeded to strip and locate the ore bodies before undertaking his favorite plan of tunnelling. Since then the mine has been extensively opened up. No. 2 tunnel penetrates the hill a distance of 150 feet, sixty-six'feet of which is,in;ore., From the end of the tunnel adrift extends 245 feet, connecting with the bottom of the 175-footshaft. This connection, apart from other considerations, provides excellent ventilation. No. 3 tunnel, tapping the outer edge of the hill 81 feet below the preceding level, has been extended 316 feet. For the first twenty feet of that distance, stringers of chalcopyritc were encountered, and the remainder of the CAr^iAN ' I ) 1jMiBOpimE.A Canada's National Highway. ������;���-.���;������*: . --.d j>':'u : America's Great Transcontinental Line and World's Pictorial Route.

Large Delegations Attended From Greenwood and Phoenix. The only celebration of the Queen's birthday in the entire Boundary this year was held at Midway last Thursday and the attendance from all parts of this section was large. In Gieen- wood and especially in Phoenix nearly every available team or horse was pressed into service, and the road to Midway that morning was one continuous cavalcade. The Midway committee, in preparing for the event,, raised a fund of nearly $700, most of which was spent on the prizes. The Greenwood City band furnished music for the occasion. The races and events resulted as follows: , Horse Races:���Free for all, half mile and repeat, Easter Lily and Skip per. F*ree for all, 600 yard dash, * To Electors ok Rossland Riding : At Rossland iccently I endeavored to frankly state my views upon various questions affecting the miners and workingmen generally, and quoted the speech of the president of the Trades and Labor unions of ;the:. /dominion, Mr. Ralph Smith, in New Westminster, to prove that I was strictly correct when condemning the two-faced policy of Messrs. Martin and Curtis. Ralpli Smith snid: "I consider if Mr. Joseph Martin had been prepared to carry ont the broad principles he satd he wns, lie never should have allied himself with the Turner party todefeat the redistribution bill. The next point is the relief that was sought to be Riven to the cor.1'miners of Vnncouver Island. What did Mr. Martin do ? He combined with the corporation of the Dunsnmirs to defeat a measure to relieve the condition of things for the coal miners." Electors: Mr. Martin not only voted against theSemlin government in order to gain power, but by so doing, prevented a redistribution of seats, thereby depriving this great district of one member���the proposed bill giving Rossland and Trail one member and the Boundary country another���two large mining centres whose interests would have been doubly protected. How is the question of Asiatic labor to be effectively dealt with? We must deal not only with Chinese and Japanese who are still in China nnd Japan, but also with the Chinese and Japanese who are now in British Columbia com- j peting against white industry. Kirst���By introducing the Coal Mines regulation bill which will empty the coal mines of Oriental labor. Second���By enacting a measure to make it compulsory upon all contractors for government work and work subsidized by the government to adopt the standard wage for labor. Electors: Constant agitation with reference to Japanese restriction cannot but retard the progress and pros ��� perity of British Columbia. If disallowed acts are re-enacted session after Hello!

About the second week in June a farce, in connection with a concert, will be given in Phoenix that bids fair to be more than usually interesting and exceedingly comical. It is called the "Old Maids' Convention," and is being prepared by the ladies of the Presbyterian church of Phoenix. It requires 20 ladies to take the parts of the old maids, who, be it understood, arc looking-for husbands. The parts have been assigned, and rehearsals are now going on. The situations are said to be humorous, especially when some of the" old maids are transformed by a professor who happens opportunely on the scene. Preceding the farce a choice concert with recitations will be given. Miss Cora Aldrich, of Rossland, a friend ol Mrs. J. E. Mills, will be visiting in Phoenix at the time, and has kindly consented to act as accompanist. The entertainment will be given for the benefit of the Presbyterian church building fund, and will take place in Miners' Union hall. The exact date has not been decided on, but it will probably be June 13th or 14th. All of the ladies interested are working hard for the success of the affair, and their efforts will doubtless be favorably received by a public that knows a good thing when it is seen. ��� :Notice.;;;U������;;���. >-{:'}/; ' Notick is hereby given that I will not be re- spoA-iible for bills contracted by my wife, Mrs. C.
