[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 era was inatked this week in tho mining history ot the Botindan eoliutiy, when the Granhy Co., nltei due examination of tlie capabilities ot the machine, placed .eii oidei lot a steam.shovel lor use at the Knob I lib mine. The Granby Co. is aU-II known to be in the loreliont to secure any thing and everything th.tt can help tin management iir the operation ol tin. propeilies it onus, and this is bin another step in the same di'cciion. During his recent tup to the iron and copper nvines of "Minnesota and Michigan, William Yulpi Williams, supcijuieudent -lot the Gianby Co, paid particular attention lu the use 01 steam shovels theie, and lound the) were a great success. On his teturn, iilter due consultation with the man agement of thecompany, 11 was decided to utilize one of them heie at the Knob Hill. The machine orderea this week b\ the Graiibj Co. is called the M.uion steam shovel, style Impioveii A, anu is manufactured by the M.uion Meant Shovel Co., of Mai ion, Ohio. Mi Williams also visited the in.iiiui.iciiiicis on his late eastern tup. I lie shovel is mounted on astandaid gu.tgeiailwii) car, and is completely boxed in, with the exception,of the boom and dippei. 1'he shovel is supplied with a vemcal boiler, 54x104.inches, with 64 two-nidi tubes, and having 255 sipiaie leet 01 heating surface. I he watei tank i*. 42x92x60 inches in size.

Local people have staked 32 claims, amounting lo 20,480 acres. The Granby company have an option on 7040 acres. A recent test of the coal'made at the assay office ut the smelter gave the following returns: Volatile mutter, 22.9; fixed carbon, 73.3; ash, 3.7. .

A pipe line will be laid liom ihe Wai Eagle to the Grey Eagle woikings, a distance ol about 500 leet, to luimsh power foi the air drills. It is the intention to do all the snipping possible betore snow Mies. As is well known, a reoigani'/ation ol the Wai Eagle Co. has been pend ing for some tune, and it is expected to go through in the not distant Intuit with ample English capital behind it When work is started up, however, 11 will probably not make any particulat difference to the Granby Co., as fai a,s ihe use of the W.n Eagle power is concerned, as the Wai Eagle compressoi is expected to be capable ot furnishing power Ioi both its own woi kings ana whatever may he tequiied for the time being by the Giey Eagle development SCHOOL HAS ENROLLMENT OP 91.

I'he new desks will be of single seating capacity, that is, each pupil will have a scat to himsell or hot self. Seveial changes have been made in the curriculum, especially of the fifth giade, since last tenn.

At the recent meeting of the stock holders of the \\ inntpeg Mines, Lim ited, the propeity ot which is beinf operated about two miles east of Phoenix, the following statement of the receipts and expenditures was submitted by the secietary: Receipts on assess ments 1 to 9, $38,285 70; net pio ceeds of the ore sold, $2648.01; proceeds of 80,000 shares of treasury stock, $4350; receipts from othei sources, $1164.80; total receipts, $44,* 84S.51. - Expenditures: Reorganization expenses, $635,48; liabilities of Winnipeg company, $7188.51; labor, $8141.- 64; materials, $5275.97; repairs, renewals and tools, $1471.11 ; assaying, $124.95; general charges mine and office, $2329.87 ; building, $4484.99; plant and machinery, $2642.44 ; total, $38,294.66. Cash in Canadian Bank of Commerce and on hand, $6553,85, Last Saturday night the force of men who were at work sinking on the main working shaft of the Granby Co. in this camp, broke through and connected with the force that was making an upraise to meet them. Making this connection much facilitates the work of that part of the properties, this shaft being now 335 leet deep, and connecting with the Victoria, Old Ironsides and Knob Hill underground workings. The larger hoist, which has been in use in the winze in the Knob Hill, will be installed at this level, and the shaft sunk to connect with the lower workings of the Victoria, 100 feet deeper. This shalt is located on the boundary line of the Victoria and Aetna claims, and will eventually be widened to allow of five compartments, and in due time be used as the main working shaft of the several properties. A few days ago the connections were made in the raise at the 100 toot level of the Knob Hill with the tunnel level of that property, thus proving up conclusively an immense additional tonnage. A contract will shortly be let by the Granby management for the stripping of the surface of the southern end of the Old Ironsides ground. When this is completed, it is the intention to take out and ship the ore from the surface clear across the ledge for a distance of 300 feet or more, and gradually woik back into the hill across the ledge. It has been the intention of the Granby Co. to install at an early date i much larger machinery plant than that now in use, which would be located at the site of the. permanent main Workingshaftrot.the properties.' 'This plant will be of greater capacity than anything ot the kind now in use in the Boundary country. The buildings to house the same were to have licen erected this fall, but it has< now been decided to put in only a part of the plant before next spring, the rest to be added later, as it may be needed. This decision was anived at because it was found that the increased tonnage ofthe property, winch is expected to be gotten out this fall, could be leadily supplied for a time by the two plants now in use.

Development aU our Phoenix mines, including the Knob Mill and Old Ironsides, has proceeded 'during the past twelve months on a larger scaie than ever. Strange as it may appeal, the ore bodies are so vast that it is difficult for any engineer to calculate the ore in sight. It is the opinion 01 prominent engineers, who vary more or less in their calculations, that the ore in >.sight'-.r'tins all the way - from eight to fll'teen million tons, and it is not difficult to; estimate, with treatment iacilities of anywhere iroiii 600,- 000 101,000,000 tons annually, how many years the present available tonnage will last,without another day's development. "Asa rule I object and decline to make any statements respecting'these ore reserves, on account of their vast- ness, but the field of inspection is open to all visitors to see for themselves. Furthermore, I think the country at large ought to .satisfied that we ate proceeding - along lines of .true ami legitimate development. It is our hope to restore largely the ��� reputation of Mritish Columbia as a mining section. '*��� "After careful investigation we ascertained that we can.adopt..the'methods used in iron mining in . Michigan and Minnesota. By means of large open cuts in a mountain of ore we can break down the ore and load it on to ihe cars with steam .shovels, thereby obviating all timbering and pumping, and reducing to a minimum the cost of handling the whole mass. "It is conceded, so far as our smelting operations are concerned, that we aie treating ores at a less cost than any other smelting plant in the world. Moreover we intend to beat our own record by at least 25 per cent., an achievement' that will be due to complete equipment and the increased quantity of ore handled. "And for the benefit of1 doubting Thomases, added.. Mr. Miner in conclusion, "I may say thai practically all the expense of increasing the plant'at the smeller and at I'hoenix is coining out ol the ground, without a penny being asked from'the shareholders. In- j stead of striving for dividends too soon we are building up.with our earnings a very large and important mining and smelting proposition, which we trust will be sure and permanent for all our investors."
