[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.

In regretting that decision,- I wish particularly to pay a whole-hearted tribute to the defeated leadelf of the Conservative party, the ^Hon. R. L. Borden, whose sincerity and ability commanded the respect of all, and whose fine integrity ot'ehara'ctet has lifted our po litical life to a higher level. -'3 During the* past eight months I have had the pleasure of speaking to audiences from Cariboo to the International line. , I should be ungrateful indeed if I did.riot recognize the personal kindness extended to me, even by many who may have dissented from my political views. It,has been an un- alloyecf satisfaction to find that in any appeal for a higher tone in Canadian public life 'there has always been a strong response from the vast majority of our people. I have nothing to regret, and nothing to retract in what I have said in advocating my views during the campaign in this .constituency. ,5 So far from*' being' discouraged by the result of the general election, I am stimulated to greater efforts, and believe that stronger reasons than ever exist for returning a Conservative repre- sentative.of Yale Cariboo. It is entirely, unnecessary for me to say,- that after travelling over the length and breadth ibf this vast constituency, my faith in "its resources has been greatly confirmed, and: it.will be my special privilege, if elected, .to promote its interests in every way possible. The argument has been, and will be advanced, that the material affairs of the riding could be better looked after by a government supporter. It is an argument framed to appeal io the baser side of human nature, and no map of personal or political convictions should be affected by it. But I might point out its' entire fallacy in this particular case, when so overwhelming a preponderance of Liberals in the House reduces the power of the individual member to a minimum, and renders it impossible to secure appropriations for the greater part of these large western ; constituencies. ."' On the other hand there was never so strong a need for a vigorous opposition. It is admitted by thoughtful Liberals themselves that so large a majority is the reverse of good for the country. I would, therefore, specially point .out to the: electors that, with reference .taYaie-Cariboo, their district will be given a "special prominence, and a special" Opportunity will be afforded of advocating its interests if a Conservative, represents them in the next House.- r"' I propose'to fight' till' the last minute of the last hour, and believe my htipes ijfor a Conservative victory will be justified. I have the honor to be, gentlemen, Yours faithfnlly, ���^:r/: ;;��� MARTIN BURRELL. Grand Forks, B. C, " 'November 8, 1904J Jay Cramer Very Low.

'��� LIBERAL RALLY ON THURSDAY Candidate Ross "Appears First Time. CURTIS TALIEI W NAI ISSUES Kerr, As Usaal, Matt Um MteMsv Uvdy- - Mcetlaf Was N�� StecM Hilt to Ike Orit Thursday evening the Liberals held the boards at Miners' union hall and Smith Curtis literally held them for not far from two hours, till the audience was tired out and the chairman had to stop him. Alderman Delahay was in the chair, and introduced Mr. Curtis, who for over an hour discussed what is now not an issue in ,this campaign, the Grand Trunk Pacific. Mr. Curtis has many" friends here, but they regretted to see such a Vaste of time ovar a subject that is nbw settled. He finally got down to what the Liberals had done for the cause of labor and went into it in detail, making a good showing, from his stand point, at least. He was interrupted several times by questions from the audience, but stood to his guns in- good shape, after each statement of things done by the Laurier government for labor, saying, "What more do you want?" He enlogized Sir Wilfred Laurier, and asked for support for Duncan Ross. He also ridiculed a number of statements in the election address of Ernest Mills, the Socialist candidate, which caused the interruption. R. B. Kerr, fo[ the Socialists, was the next speaker,' and leaving the dead issue of the Grand Trunk Pacific alone, he proceeded to dissect Mr., Curtis' remarks about Grit legislation for labor and Grit royal commissions. He showed that during the eight years of Liberal rule, when both Canada and the United Stajes were prosperous, wages had not increased at al); but, on the unquestioned authority of Dun and Bradstreet, the cost of living per capita had increased from $60 to $90 by one authorityJand from $74 to $99 per year by the other. "What more do you want?" queried Mr. Kerr, to the great amusement of the audience. One by one, Mr. Kerr dealt with Mr. Curtis' labot.legislation arguments and to his own satisfaction and that of most of the audiance, at least, showed their fallacy. He then launched into Socialism all over the world, and told what it had,done, as well as here in British Columbia. It was evident that the audience-was largely in sympathy with him. Deticaa Kosi Appeals. Mr. Ross, although tired with much speechmaking for the last month, took the floor, and went all over the Grand Trunk Pacific bargain again for the benefit of the long suffering hearers. He spoke easily and well, but was un doubtedly up against the hardest audience to convince that he had yet met. He tried to show the electors that the Liberal ticket was the right one to support, even from the standpoint of the laboring man, telling what had been done by the Grits for the sons of toil, and how the new railway would provide labor for years in this province. Interruptions did not rattle him in the least, and once in a while he received applause from the 31 Grits who voted in last year's provincial election in Phoenix, who seemed to be all there. Mr. Ross criticised the Socialists, as well as the Conservatives. F.J. Deane, editor and proprietor of the Nelson News, was on the platform to make an address, but the hour was too late, and the meeting closed with cheers for Ernest MillB. Pint Trip ���! Nth. Wfc�� are flrutlr iMamsc*" wlili Uw Ovsai Ceaecr rniwun al tkli Casja. - Thursday morning a special train over the C. P. R. brought up from Grand Forks a party ol officials of the Granby Consolidated and their friends on a trip of inspection to the mines of the company. The personnel of the party was as follows: George Martin Luther, of New York, secretary-treasurer of the Nicholls Chemical Co., and Jacob Langeloth, president of the American Metal Co., of New York, both directors of the Granby Co.; Dr. Rudolph de Neufville, of Frankfurt, Germany, a director of the Metal Ges- selschaft, the famous German selling concern; J. B. Francis HerreshorT, metallurgical expert of the Nicholls Chemical Co.; J. P. Graves, vice president and general manager of the Granby Co., with Treasurer Geo. W. Wooster and Superintendent A.B.W. Hodges, of the Granby Co. All of the gentlemen are interested in the Granby Co. as shareholders or officials, and those from the east came at the invitation of Mr. Graves to look over the properties of the company. After going through and over the Granby mines that afternoon, the entire party took the special train for Grand Forks the same.evening, where a day or two was spent inspecting the Granby smelter. " This is the first visit of Dr, de Neufville and Mr Langeloth to the Boundary country, the other two gentlemen from New York having been here over a year ago, when a Urge party of Granby directors visited the mines and smelter of the company. What Mr. LaDielotb Said. Mr. Langeloth being at the head of one of the largest dealers in the products of copper and other mines in America, was asked by the Pioneer man for his impressions of the Granby mines, which he had just seen for the first time, and said: "The general impression here is one which one never forgets, and the enterprise and foresight shown by the gentlemen who originally took hold of the Granby mines is really most commendable. The way in which the entire problem has been laid out and carried on showed enormous foresight. "To induce the railways to come in to a- practically unknown section of country was unquestionably a most difficult matter, and it is of the greatest interest to the entire country that the Great Northern railway is now coming in and will be of such assistance to the mining interests here. ���'The ore bodies developed in the properties of the Granby Co. are simply enormous, and have evidently only been scratched, even with the great amount already spent here. Untold riches are still hidden under those hills, aad will for years and yearo serve not only the present smelter capacity, but a much larger one, which I expect to see here in due time. "The site of the smelter at Grand Forks was admirably chosen, as with the cheap water power the ores can be treated very economically, and an ex-, cellent commercial product is there- suit. "It is my candid opinion that the future of the Granby Co. is a very bright one, and great credit is due to the enterprising gentlemen who have worked up the properties to the present excellent state. The shareholders will soon see the time when the investment will prove to be a very judicious one." Dr. it Neufville Pleaitd. Dr. de Neufville, whose company at Frankfurt-on-the-Main, in Germany, corresponds with the American Metal Co. in New York, is travelling all over America, visiting the great copper mining centres. He has already visited the Lake Superior, Montana, Arizona and Mexican sources of supply, and from here goes to. liola, Kan sas. His company is what is known as a holding company, having large interests in zinc, copper and brass works in Europe, and is closely allied to the American Metal Co. , He was not a little pleased with what he saw of the Granby mines and smelter, and expressed himself to that effect. Familiar as he must be with great copper producers, the plant, methods of development, extraction and reduction in use by the Granby Co. compared favorably with the largest of them. Hf Tmi Cefper a Muik. Mr. HerreshorT and Mr. Luther were here last year and noted great improvements at the Granby mines and smelter, the full battery of six furnaces now being in operation and turning out from 500 to 600 tons of copper bars per- month., The former gentleman noted that at the great Anaconda copper mine, in Butte, where he stopped on their way opt, the values are no greater than in the Granby mines today���low as the latter are known to* be. But at the Anaconda mine a great tonnage was handled,and as the world knows, immense profits have been made therefrom. He looked for the time, and at no distant date, when the Granby Co. would be treating two or three times as much ore as at present. Oaly HImkH to Blase. The Cranbrook Herald says that "If Duncan Ross is defeated he will have himself to blame. The publishing of that picture of himself three times, top of column, next to reading matter in his own paper was enough to defeat the strongest man." City Water TrwWes. Owing to breaks in the main by the railway contractors, water was unavailable from the usual supply nearly all last week, but connections were finally made. Last Monday night the main burst on School street, and rbo,ooo gallons of water poured down into the railway grade. It required two more days to repair the damage, and now the usual supply is available. These little things are costing the railway contractors a pretty penny. Traffic Blocked 24 Hours. Monday night, engine No. 902, a big compound, was derailed near the Brooklyn mine, on the trestle and on a twenty degree curve. Traffic to and from the Brooklyn and Stemwinder mines was completely blocked for 24 hours, till Roadmaster Johnson and his extra gang succeeded in getting the 16 wheels on the iron again. This is said to be another proof that compound engines are of little use in the Phoenix yards. Storting Around the World. Rev. W. A. Robins, of Greenwood, started this week for a trip around the world, via Vancouver, Japan, Singapore, India, the Red Sea, etc., on his way to his old home in England. Before leaving he was presented by his parishioners with a purse containing $300, as a mark of esteem, the Sunday school giving him a handsome walking stick. Rev..

SO SAYS TKE CHIEF ENGINEER Pat Welch Alto Corroborate* the SUtemeat ���Railhead Is 8 Miles Oat ol Orasd Forks ���Notes. If nothing goes wrong, the Great Northern will be running trains into Phoenix by Christmas day. This is the flat statement of Chief Engineer Kennedy, as well as of Patrick Welch, in charge of construction, both of whom were in the city yesterday. The iron squad now has rails laid nearly eight miles out of Phoenix, -and another week will see the railhead at Summit City, and a few. days later at Deadman's gulch, just six miles from Phoenix by the grade. At Deadman's gulch is to be the lar-. gest and highest bridge on the line, but which it is expected can be crossed with the steel in ten days, after the tracklaying- gang reaches that point. Already work is well under way on the foundations for the piers of the bridge, the timbers being hauled with horses over the completed grade from Denoro, two miles distant. A large force is already at work on this huge structure- From Deadman's to Phoenix there are but two heavy rock cuts yet uncompleted���one at Scarpelli's under Burns & Jordan, which is to be finished in some three weeks, and the great thorough cut being put through by Patrick Hughes. The latter is the heaviest on the entire line, but- Mr. Hughes asserts that the first week of December will see his work so that the rails can be laid. Up at this end the grading is being completed fast, and two or three weeks'time will leave but little yet.to be done. -i-�� ���* . . fta4tM towiWe-iasir. T"1 ,' Last Tuesday the ]sputiwhich W. P. Tiemey, C.'P. R. contractor of Nelson, has' been constructing from the Phoenix branch to the newly built Rawhide ore bins, was completed, the iron also having been laid on the new grade. Altogether the spur is about 3,500 feet long, with two side tracks from the main line to accommodate the heavy ore shipments that ���: will shortly be started from the Rawhide by the Montreal & Boston Consolidated. As is customary in such cases, the C. P, R. required the mining company to advance the cost of the spur, the amonrit to be rebated in ore. freights as fast as they are earned.. Roosevelt Was Elected. In Tuesday's elections in the United States, Theodore Roosevelt was re-elected president by a tremendous majority, having 325 votes in the electoral college, against 150 for Parker, with a few doubtful. Every northern state went for Roosevelt. In the neighboring state of Washington, Mead, Republican, was elected, as well as nearly the entire state ticket. Thsoksglvlng Day Rates.

Yale-Cariboo���HARTItl BURREIL. Ksotsssy-C. H. MACKINTOSH. OUR SIXTH YEAR. With this issue the Phoenix Pioneer enters upon its sixth year of publication, it having been conducted duiing its five years of life under the same continuous management and editorship. As our brethern of the fourth estate in the Boundary know only too well, those five years have not by any means been years of profit and ease in the publishing business. In fact, if we may judge by the changes that have occurred in that time, conducting even ft weekly newspaper in the Boundary has been a strenuous business, ��� and one hardly conducive to fattening plethoric pocket books. Since the Pioneer was started on its career at least ten papers, daily and weekly, have given up the ghost in the Boundary. While, even under favorable conditions, a newspaper publisher's life is not a bed of roses', if he does conscientious work and secures a moderate living in this work-a-day world, he must needs be content as well as thankful that the banker or the sheriff- has not yet found it advisable .to take possession. In our initial number, published in November, 1899, we said: "We hope to attain a good old age in the ordinary course of events, and wring its attainment to be of some , service to the community in which we have cast^our lot. We have implicit Confidence in the future of Phoenix; it cannot fail to be a populous and prosperous centre, surrounded as it is by mines so rich and all the natural re- .so'urces necessary for speedy development. It shall be our object to make known to the world the richness of 1 this great country and to encourage by every legitimate means in our power ^its healthy progress." ' ; How well we have succeeded in our : mission so far we leave to others to j decide,,but with the confidence born opf experience, that our course was the. true one, we shall continue in the fu I'twclargety & ��** && P^i, to, publish That an amalgamation of the Le Roi, Centre Star and War' Eagle at Rossland with the Snowshoe mine at Phoenix is among the possibilities of the near future, is now an admitted fact. Therefore, it is not out of place, at this time, to note something of the past. It is unpleasantly notorious that, up to the time A. j. McMillan became manager of the LeRoi mine, that great property had, in one way or another, been used as a football on .the London stock , exchange. It, had been mismanaged and maligned, and had generally gotten into bad repute on both sides of the water. ��� Mr.' McMillan placed J. H. Tre- vorrow in charge as mine superintendent and J. W. Astley as general superintendent, and immediately distinctly better results are noted���in fact, they are'remarkable. With an increase of values,of less' tbat $1.00 per ton in August over the ore shipped in May, the profits have increased from $1.20 per ton in May to, $3.50 per ton in August���thus, showing ��� what honest, intelligent,' capable management can do;with the,LeRoi. ,, Now the Snowshoe is .being most thoroughly "sampled and tested., Interests supposed to be inimical to- the LeRoi assert 'in the -jmblic prints that Snowshoe ores will not mix to advantage with JLeRbi ores; but this problem can safely be left to those in charge. If this proves to be a fact, no" amalgamation will take place. Mr. McMillan and Mr. Waterloo will not blast their rep'utations by foisting an unprofitable deal on the LeRoi shareholders. The Snowshoe itself, and its management in'the past by Mr.' McMillan and associates, has been successful as far as it went, and the future will show, we believe, that it is an exceedingly valuable mine. If the,,proposed,vconsolidation is effected, the Pioneer predicts that Rossland low grade ores will be concentrated on the ground, and that the high grade ores will be brought to some central Boundary point for smelting, the Boundary ores not being able to stand a long haul. This appears to be a logical conclusion., It appears also that Messrs. McMillan, Wateilow and associates are carefully working out the future of successful mining in Rossland camp, which will also greatly Rossland ore shipments lust week were 6,180 tons, or 290,855 tons for the year. The collieries around Fernie are pro during at the rate of a million tons of coal a year. An ambulance class has been started in Coal Creek, which will supply a long-felt want. After nearly a two year close down, work has been resumed at the rich Mollie Gibson mine. The Nahmint. mines near Alberni have been taken over, by a - Portland, Oregon, syndicate, which intends developing them and instituting operations on a large scale should the values prove what is expected. The southeast Kootenay Coal & Petroleum Company, Limited,. has filed articles of incorporation with the county auditor at Spokane. The company ,is organized to prospect for coal and petroleum in East Kootenay, B. C. The capital stock is $250,000, divided into 1.000,000 shares at 25 cents each.

Sir Wilfrid had th' offices, he had th' men, an', as results show'd, he had th' votes, too. 'Twas a" glorious victory, th' most glorious since- Sir Jawhn Mac- Donald went down to defeat. "An' now th' people of th' Domin ion will have th' Grand Thrunk Pacific consthructed, right .away or sooner, That is, it'll be built in th' coorse of th' next few years, an' times will be good all over th' counthry while th' buildm's going on.

"Why is it, Misther Tooley, that th' iliction in Yale-Cariboo was postponed to:th' 2 2nd of November?" "That's aisy, Misther Hinnissey. Duncan Ross was afraid of a landslide at th' gineral ilictions, an' so he an' his frind, Galliher, in Kootenay, had them fixed later, so they cud get th' benefit of th' Liberals winning, if they did win." "But. do ve think Ross '11 get in, Misther Dooley," said Mr. Hennessey. "Ye ast me a ha-rd question, Misther Hinnissey," said Mr. Tooley. "But, as the byes say, he's got his wa rk cut out fr him, annyhow. Why, they tell me that he'll not get half a dozen labor votes in th' Boundary, an' that manes a good manny that Misther Burrell '11 get. Duncan Ross, in the past, has rubbed it into th' Socialists, an' now w'en they have a chanst, they won't do a thing to Misther Ross. "To be sure th' Socialists, have a candydate, Ernest Mills, but they know he.sthands no show of winnin' out, an' so manny of them will vote Pr the best man, Martin Burrell, who's been makin so manny frinds all over th' counthry. Th' Socialists have some good ideas, an' someday some of them will be adophted, but most of th' ideas are a hundhred years ahead of th' toimes, or even further. "Another rayson why Misther Ross '11 get few votes here is that th' Liberal government, with all th' boasts of what it's done fr th' counthry, has done nawthm' fr th' Boundary. W'en Pha- nix asked fr a custom house, on'y.a few miles fr'm th' boundary loine an' smugglin' goin' on all the toime, Mr. Ross' frinds at 'Ottawa turned the request down cold. Whin they wanted ditect mail service with Grane- wood, Misther Ross' own town, they didn't get a pleasant smoile���an' Misther Mulock, th' postmasther-gin- iral at Ottawa, told about th' big surplus f r last year.
