[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.

Though Fernie Coal Strike Is Still On. Heretofore the supply of coke that was available from the collieries; of the Crows Nest Pass Coal Co., at Fernie, Michel and Murrissey, has been largely relied upon for the fuel needs for Boundary smelters. The present strike of the coal miners there, however, has completely cut off that supply, and the latest reports from the strike centre are to the effect lhat a settlement is not yet in sight, both sides claiming bad faith on the part of the other regarding the breaking of the contract of March, 1905, there being no question of hours or pay. Mines and coke ovens are closed and men are moving away, giving the impression that the strike will be extended. In the last two years, however, conditions have changed somewhat as regards Boundary smelters and the coke supply, and the effect of the strike has not yet been such as to close any of the reduction works in this district, and il is hoped that result will not follow, owing to the up to dateness of Boundary smelter managers. While the Granby Co. secured all its coke from the Fernie ovens, the B C. Copper Co. has its supply coming from the West Canadian collieries at Blairmore, Alberta, and the Dominion Copper Co. gets its coke from Coleman, Alberta. When the strike started Manager Hodges, of the Granby, at once got busy, as all his coke came from Fer nie. He now has an arrangement to secure 150 tons daily from Blairmore, for the present. This permits the operation of six of the battery of eight furnaces. How long this will keep up, is of course the question, but it is like Was Held in Phoenix Last Saturday. Pursuant to notice sent to shareholders, the Dominion Copper Co., Ltd., held its annual genera! meeting of shareholdetslast Saturday at the registered office of the company in British Columbia, which is Phoenix. The meeting was for the election of a board of seven directors and for such other business as might come before the meeting, being largely formal in character. Besides a few local shareholders, Arthur M. Whiteside, of Greenwood, solicitor for the company, was preseut, Mr. Whiteside holding the proxies for j 337 shareholders, representing a majority of the stock. The report of President Warner Miller and the financial statement and balance sheet for the year ending July 31, 1906, as already printed in the Pioneer, were read at the meeting and approved by the shareholder^ the following being the list of directors elected for the ensuing year : Warner Miller, of New York; Leopold Herrmann, of New York; Samuel Newhouse, of Salt Lake City; Arthur M. Wick wire, of Boston; H. IL Mel vile, of Boston; John M. Shaw, of New York; and Alvin Untermeyer, of New York. Mr. Miller, Mr. Herrmann, and Mr. Newhouse were respectively president, secretary, and general manager of the company during the past year, and will doubtless be reelected to those positions at a nieetin of the board of directors in New York. The only new member of the board is Alvin Untermeyer, who takes the place of Edward M. Neary. TWO FURNACES NEXT WEEK Boundary Mining Notes In Blast at the B. C. Copper Smelter. New Plant is Doing Work. Good WAS CLOSE CALL FOR C. M. CAMPBELL Granby Engineer in Tight Place Five Hours. Last Monday Charles M, Campbell, resident engineer for the Granby mines, was taking some levels at the 200-foot level of the Old Ironsides mine, with his assistant, G. E.

Wednesday one furnace was blown out for repairs, but by Monday six will probably be in operation again. Should there happen to be an extension of the strike to the Pass collieries still in operation, which is not looked for, it would affect all ihe smelters of the Boundary at once and seriously, and then there would be a genuine scramble for coke. As it is, the smelters are managing to get along without the Fernie output. But the Trail and Northport smelters are unfortunately already feeling the bad effects of the strike.

It was finally necessary to build cribbing around Mr. Campbell to get him out, and this took valuable time. In about five hours after the first drop he was taken out, but had lost consciousness. However, after spending the night in the hospital, where he was quickly carried, he was able to be on duty again, fortunately sustaining no broken bones. Altogether, it wai a close call (or the popular Granby engineer, and one that he does not care to have happen again. Wm. Yolen Williams left Spokane last Tuesday on a professional trip to Mexico, to be gone a month. PROMOTION OF A.B.WJODGES Now Local Manager of the Granby Co. Directors Chosen at the nual Meeting. An- At last week's annual genera ing of the Granby Consolidatou meet- 1, held at the company's office in New York, .*.t 52 Broadway, it was decided to create a new office, that of local manager, and A. B. XV. Hodges, who has acted as general superintendent of the company for over two years, was raised to lhat position. There will probably be no change in the duties of Mr. Hodges, which are that of a general supervision of the operations of the company at both mines and smelter. The friends of Mr. Hodges will be pleased to note that the excellent work woich he has done for the company and thus for the Boundary as a whole, has been recognized by the board of directors. Following i.s a full list of filteen Granby directors elected at the annual meeting and the officers chosen by the directors : President, J. l.angeloth: vice-president and general manager, Jay P. Graves; vice president, George Martin Luther; vice-president, George Crawford ("lark, Jr.; directors; George V. Baker, Jr., George Crawford Clark, Geo. Crawford Clark, Jr., Jay P. Graves, li. L I Iigginson, B. Hochschild, Arthur C. James, J. l.angeloth George Martin Luther, Wm. II. Nichols, W. II .'Robinson, Sanford H. Steele, lid- win Thome, A. L. White and Payne Whitney. The secretary is Northrup Fowler, and treasurer, G. W. Wooster: transfer agents, American Loan & Trust Co., Boston: registrar, Bo.iton Safe Deposit and Trust Co., Boston. Last week Tuesday the first ofthe ihree new blast furnaces at the British Columbia Copper Co.'s smelter at Greenwood, was blown in, with no further troubles than those usually incident to the starting and adjustment of new machinery, and since then has been steadily in blast, doing the best of work. J. E. McAllister, the manager of the company, informs the Pioneer that he expects 10 have the second furnace in blast some lime next week, the third to be in operation as soon as the power is furnished, which he thinks, according to promises made by the electrical power concern, should be by the 1st of November, or shortly thereafter. These new blast furnaces are the latest thing of the kind in smelter practice, being manufactured after plans specially prepared under the direction of Mr. McAllister, after he had visited some of the largest smelting plants on the American continent. They were made by the Power' and Mining Machinery Co., of Cudahy, Wisconsin, and include the latest devices known to the business, and are expected to run longer with less repairs than the furnaces usually installed. They are also much larger lhan' any others yet installed in Canada, and the battery of three are expected, when settled down to work, to handle from 1,500 to 2,000 tons of ore each 24 hours. One feature that is decidedly new about the new B. C. Copper Co.'s smelting works, is the immensesize of the slag pots now in use. Formerly the slag was hauled away in pots holding five or six tons, while the new pots hold about 25 tons each, and the success of the experiment will mean a great saving in operating expenses to the company. When the full battery is in steady blast the B. C. Copper Co. management should produce from 1,000,000 to 1,500,000 pounds of copper per month, a large increase over the former output. Mother Lode a Surprise. In speaking of the Mother Lode mine, Sec. Eggltston, of the company, became reminiscent, says the Boundary Creek Times. He went back to the autumn of 1896, when the late F. J. Tichenor, then president of the B. C. Copper Co , had purchased the mine. Mr. Tichenor had secured the advice of experts and had paid the price. He then came to visit it, and after inspecting the property sat down on a log and cursed the day he had been swindled into buying such a pile of worthless rock. He lived, however, to realize something of the immense value of the property. To Mr. Eggleston it was a wonderful property, no less for its vast extent than for the economical manner in which the ore can be handled. "When it is remembered," he said, "that from the time the ore is blasted in the mine until it is reduced to blister copper, it is not touched by human hands, and is handled by gravity, it will oe realized to what extent the best economy can be utilized. We have the mines capable of producing a collection of ores, in the proper proportions, to produce a perfect flux, and with iron, sulphides and silicious ores and the clay bank, the B. C. Copper Co. holds the key to the smelting industry j of the district. I have visited all the mines of the company and 1 believe in them the Boundary has a splendid paying proposition."

The train from the Boundary to Spokane is due* to arrive there after tomorrow twenty minutes earlier, or about 5 p. m., and leaving there the schedule will also be 20 minutes earlier, or at 10:15 a. in. By November 15th the first 16 miles of the Kettle Valley lines extension up the North Fork of the Kettle river will be ready for the metals. G. L. Woodward, the right of way contractor, has lii.it work done as far as Lynch c;eek. A car of ore is being shipped from the Duncan and Bounty fraction, West Fork, that is expected to net the owners $5,000. Like all West Fork mines, the ore must be hauled on wagons to Midway. A car of high grade ore has been shipped from the Strathmore to the Trail smelter, and from this on shipments will be made more frequently. The property never looked better than it does today. The work of filling in trie Dominion avenue glory hole of the Brooklyn mine, occasioned by a cave last week, is now under way, waste from the Idaho being used. It will require several thousand tons of material. Fifteen cars of ore have been shipped from the Sally, one of the highly developed West Fork mines, netting $45,000. The Rambler, in the same district, has thus far sent out six cars of ore, running from $112 to $179 per ton. Tenders are being asked for by the B. C. Copper Co., for hauling ore from the Lone Star and Washington group, which is under option and development by the company, to the Kettle Valley railway, for shipment to the Greenwood smelter. The new Victoria shaft of the Granby mines is now through to the 400- foot level, and will be timbered and pockets put in as rapidly as possible. By spting electric haulage will be installed in the mine at this level, the recent increase in the motor-generator set, used for electric haulage in the No. 3 tunnel, allowing for this. This week an important ore find was made in the Skylark mine. Crosscut- ting has been in progress at the bottom of the shaft at the 225-foot level, but with 75 feet of work the ore body had not been reached. About 40 feet higher a crosscut was started and eight or ten inches of fine ore was found some 30 feet in. Apparently the ore body had flattened, and will be found with more drifting at level. This week an important strike was made in the shaft at the Crescent at a depth of 1 75 feet, where a fine body of ore with antimonial silver, running $ 160 per ton, was reached. The ore to 15 inches in width. PAID $215,000 FOR SEPTEMBR By Boundary Mines, Smelters and Railways. Last Month's Tonnage Same as August. the 225-foot Boundary's mine and smelter payroll for the month of September was about the same as that for August, being, with the railway payroll in this section, approximately, $215,000. Most of the mines and smelters paid on the icth. In Phoenix camp alone the pay was about $77,000, the balance being scattered among the several town's and camps in the Boundary. Here the Granby paid out $47,000, the Dominion Copper Co. $33,000 and the Snowshoe some $7,000. Taken altogether, the September pay for the mines, smelters and railways in the Boundary, as nearly as could be ascertained, was as follows : Granby Consolidated $80,000 Dominion Copper Co ...... 38,000 B. C. Copper Co... 28,000 Snowshoe 7,000 Smaller mines 22,000 C.P.R. and G.N. railway men 40,000 body is 10 m ^ Col. T. L. Dickason, of Chicago, 1 ror tn chief owner of the mine, expects leave there about the 20th inst. with a party of friends, for the Boundary. On his arrival the matter of an air compressor will be decided on, tenders now being in. Total .$215,000 This is about the same amount as that paid out for the month of August, but the pay for October may be a little lighter. Shipped 93,311 Tons la September. In tonnage output of ore the record for September shows that Boundary mines shipped almost exactly the same amount as during August, the figures being 92,442 and 92,311 tons, respectively. As the British Columbia Copper Co. now figures in the shipping column once more, the tonnage for October should show a goodly increase, if the coke question does not seriously ciipple operations. From data compiled by the Pioneer, it is found that the following are the figures in detail I ioi me output for the month of Sep- to tember for the district mines : R. H.

Sat. 1 �� 3 4 5 6 7 89 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 ai 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 Last week's edition of the Pioneer was 1200 copies���an edition that we have yet to hear of any other paper in this section putting out. The Pioneer was the only paper in * Boundary that published the Granby and Dominion Copper annual reports last week. Which merely goes to prove that those who wish* the mining news of Boundary mines and smelters must read the Pioneer. A Boston financial paper thoughtfully cribs a number of mining notes from the columns of the Pioneer without credit, regarding the Boundary district," and states that they are from Phoenix, Arizona. This is about the limit, even for a great Boston publica- ; tioti; '" Recently the Nelson Daily News actually printed a story from Victoria that there was no apparent intention of making an appeal to the people in this province in the immediate future. After the News announcing with more or less regularity for the last six months, that we were on the eve of a provincial election, it would seem that the editor of that paper must have been off on a vacation to allow such a "true story to appear in print in the great Grit paper of the interior. But, of course, the rank and file of both parties knew that, for once, in its political discourses, the News had hit the nail on the head, remarkable to relate. While the reports of the Granby and Dominion companies, published in last week's issue of the Pioneer, may be dry reading to some of the subscribers of this paper.it was intensely interesting matter to many, as it exhibited the financial standing of both these companies, and showed that they are both making good money for the shareholders. The knocker and pessimist can be (ound in every community, but reports of that kind do much to put them out of business. If this keeps up���of which we have no doubt���these gentry will, one ofj these fine days, be without an occupa-, tion, and will be seeking other fields. And it goes without saying that there will be few to regret their departure. The following is a copy of a brief report on the properties of the Do- I minion Copper Co., Ltd., made by M. I M. Johnson, the consulting engineer ' of the corporation, to President Warner Miller, after a recent visit to the mines and smelter of the company : ���'I have just returned from a two weeks' visit to the Dominion Copper operations in British Columbia, accompanied by yourself and Mr. Melville, and wish to state that I made a thorough examination of all parts of tho operation. "Since your visit to the property last February we have confined ourselves more particularly to the development of the Rawhide and Idaho claims, as well as some-work below the 250-leveI of the Brooklyn mine, and the results have been most satisfactory.. "In the Brooklyn mine we have found the ore between the 2 s0 level and the 350-level, and about 50 feet above the 350-level the character of which is the same as the upper ore, but in the one or two places where we cut it the percentage of copper has been better, running about two per cent. "During our operation at the smelter beginning on Nov. 27, 1905, we smelted 133,084 tons up to July 31st, which showed a net profit of $139,- 144.04. " At the Idaho mine, our tunnel has been extended to a distance of 476 feet. The first 200 feet of this is in ore at a depth of about 60 feet un der the surface. All of our crosscuts and raises in the Idaho are showing ore as is also the 100 foot level, from which point we are drifting north and south and had ore in the face of both drifts at the time of my departure. "Onr ore bins are nearly completed at this point and we are now using one-half of the bins for shipment of ore to the smelter. "The hoisting frame at the Idaho shaft is about completed and the engines transferred from the Sunset mine and are in position and ready for operation. - "The central compressor plant, foundation and building are about completed and ready for the reception of the machinery which we have been promised would be on the way at about this time. I presume we will have all this completed and ready for the electric current by the time the power company has their line estab lished to this point. "At the Rawhide mine the work has been most satisfactory. All of the tunnel and open cuts have been blocked out and I think that the developing of same will show up a very large tonnage of ore. During the month of July the ore from the Rawhide mine gave us an average of 1.44 per cent copper, which is about what I figured this average would be when I first went to the property. We are also finding in our No. 3 tunnel ofthe Rawhide some very heavy sulphide ore of a character that I have not heretofore seen. "The lowest level which we have in the Rawhide will t��ive us about 125 or 130 feet vertical depth on the ore and as we are practically drifting from one side to the other on the property, it should give us at least 1,000 feet ot Methodist���Sunday School at 2:30 j). m. evening service 7:30 p. ,111.

Coal miners and operators at Fernie continue at loggerheads, with little prospect of early settlement. But, in some way, Boundary smelters continue to operate about as usual. Evidently the great East Kootenay concern is not "the only pebble on the beach" in the line of coke. ore along the strike by cutting out several poitions of waste which seem to exist. "The new work at the smelter for the introduction of the furnace, is going on as fast as we can possibly make it go at this time. A portion of our trestle and ore bins are up. The excavation for the furnace, stack and flue is completed, and all of our plans for sampling mill, conveyor and elevators finished, and all of the material about ordered. I presume it will be some time near the first of January before we get going.

Hand made is right. A shoe should be hand made throughout and all Slater's are, but why should a shoe maker be condensed to tediously sew a shoe with awl, wax and knife at snail speed when he can do it a hundred times quicker and a hundred times better with a Goodyear Welt machine ? There's no reason, except prejudice and ���tradition. Every woman knows that for strength, evenness and durability, liand sewing cannot compare with the sewing machines produdt. Neither can hand shoe sewing compare with Goodyear machine sewing. If you'd like a shoe witkout tacks, threads, stitches, lumps, hollows OT roughness under the foot; if you'd like a shoe with the lock stitch which holds the sole on until worn to the thinness of paper, get a shoe that's made by the Goodyear Welt Process.

Hunter-Kendrick Co., Ltd., Exclusive Agents, Phoenix, B. C. [_ ^ A few days since the Observer actually laid aside the cares of a busy country newspaper publisher, in the attempt to make both ends meet, and hied himself to Spokane, letting the office run itself for the time being. Ol course, such trips are common to the average man, and perhaps the average man does not see anything worth tiding on such occasions. Different here, however. ��������� Jim Hill's train took us into Spokane only half an hour late, due largely, it was said, to the fact that the Great Northern was using an inferior coal on account of the Fernis coal min- ers'strike. In Spokane it was no small job to find a place to lay one's weary head, but through the good offices of Manager Norman, of the Hotel Spokane, and a mutual friend, the lu*st was at our disposal, though dozens of others were clamoring for a cot or a. corner. The interstate fair war just over, but the crowds in the city were still very heavy. �������� To meet mining or railway men that Spokane hotel is the place of all others in the Inland Kmpire, as they gather there from all over the so-called Spokane country, and the Spokane Stockbrokers' Association holds its daily- call in that building. Geo. \V. Cornish, who had charge of the Boundary mineral exhibit at the Nelson and Spokane fairs, was on deck with two or three silver cups and a bunch of diplomas which the mines of this section had won at the two fairs, and was preparing to take the exhibit to the Lewiston fair, where he spent most of this week, to give farmers of that section an idea of where they could invest in a good mining country. Alex Miller, of Greenwood, and of the Strathmore mine, was there, feeling not a little pleased over his mine taking the fust prize and a solid silver cup at the fair, after getting one at Nelson fair. We went out to the fair to see that Strathmore exhibit, and it was well worth the trip. No wonder Mr. Miller was only touching the high spots. One man from Chicago, on seeing the magnificent specimens of ore, wished to buy one of them for too���but, of course, they were not for sale. Assisted by Al. Manly, ol Grand Forks, Mr. Miller had his cups on view all that evening at the Silver Grill. Lack of space prevents referring to many milling men seen. Geo. A. Mc- Leod, of Grand Forks, who is largely interested m Franklin camp, and who has done so much to bring capital into the Boundary, was on the way back from a business trip to Seattle. He was asked in the latter place about the wonderful (?) cobalt strike up the West Fork of Kettle river, reported from Grand Forks by an enterprising (?) correspondent, and had to acknowledge that the people in the Boundary were ignorant cf the great (?) find. L. C. Dillman, an old Spo- kanite, who is promoting Alaska coppers, was in evidence and doing business. ... On the return trip from Spokane, Alexander Sharp, M. Ii., the mining expert for l\ Bums & Co., was noted, on his way to the First Thought mine, which ships regularly to the Granby smelter. Mr. Sharp travels for the meat king from Mexico to Alaska, and and from Toronto to Orient. Supt. Harris, of ihe Hall smeller, at Nelson, was reluming from a visit to the large smelting plants of Colorado and Utah. ��!��� On the tram was also Supt. Morgan, of the Spokane Falls & Northern rail way, with his private car.

Boundary exhibit was not a good thing for the people of Greenwood and Phoenix, who chipped in to pay the expenses thereof, he should have been there to note the interest taken and the expressions of surprise on the part of those who saw it, from all parts of the United States. For ourselves, we believe that it would have been difficult for money to have been spent to better advantage for publicity regarding the Boundary. And the best proof of that was that residents of Grand Forks who wete there regretted that that city was not represented 111 the contributions of cash and ore. It opened the eyes of even the Spokane people themselves, many of whom were familiar with the resources of the Boundary. Another thing accomplished was that the fair management has already practically decided to give much more space to the mineral exhibit next year, making it a greater feature than before, and, better still, will probahly ofler cash prizes up to $1,000 or more for the best individual and district ore exhibits. Which is certainly as it should be, for it is a well known fact thai British Columbia mines have been the mortgage-lifters of Spokane���many a resident of that enterprising place in the hard times of a few years ago, being lifted from poverty to comfort or affluence by his holdings in the mines of this province. 'This is no idle dream, but a recital of actual facts, of which particulars could be given il necessary. ��������� Blake Wilson, James Cronin and other mining men from British Columbia, were seen. Mr. Cronin now makes his home in Spokane, after retiring from his success in making the St. Ku- gene the great mine that it is. It may not be generally known, but Mr. Cronin was no stronger in the Boundary in the nineties, having been in charge of the Cariboo-McKinney in iK'jj, and, if report be true, having made good there, as he did later in Hast Kootenay. Blake Wilson, in addition to being manager at Nelson for P. Hums & Co., is also largely interested in the First Thought mine at Orient, one of the Burns enterprises. 02 0ti).< 04 07 Cariboo-McKiirliev .... 02 oa 85 ��S Dominion Copper .... 4 50 C 50 Denoro Mines 07 OS Deer Trail Con 01).; 02 Hurt'ka Copper ��� 10 Fisher Maiden 02 0:; Granby Con l.'i 7*5 14 50 01 02 International Coal 58 GO 1(1 20 La Plata 15 20 Nicola Con!

Appreciation from tbe Bereaved, August 30 last Ronald Mclnnis, an emplyee of the Granby mines, was killed by electrocution, coming in contact with a live wire while coming off shift at noon. The employees of the company subscribed $4951 to defray funeral expenses and to ship the remains east, the balance being sent to the widow, who has several small children. The Pioneer gladly gives space to the following letter of appreciation from Mrs. Mclnnis: To the Editor of the Phoenix Pioneer: Dear Sir:���Please allow me spt.ee in which to express my heartfelt gratitude towards the employees of the Granby Mining Company. Their generous and spontaneous contribution in defraying the expenses incurred, in order that my poor husband's remains might lie where I and his children might come and mourn by Ins grave, is such that were I to live longer than the alloted space of life, I shall never forget it. To be stricken down sud denly in a foreign land, whither he had recently gone to better the condition of his young family, was a blow from which I shall never recover, but it was a source of great consolation to me to know that he was among friends, who so gallantly showed their friendship in the time of need. I wish I were there to personally thank them, but since that cannot be, I take this means of publically thanking them, and I pray God that they will succeed in this life even beyond their expectations.

Wounds, Brulsea and Burns. By applying an antiseptic dressing to wounds, bruises, burns and like injuries before inflammation sets in, they may be healed without maturation and in about one-third the time required by the old treatment. This is the greatest discovery and triumph of modern surgery. Chamberlain's Pain Balm acts on this same principle. It is an antiseptic and when applied to such injuries, causes them to. heal very quickly. It also allays the pain and soreness and prevents any danger of blood poisoning. Keep a bottle of Pain Balm in your home and it will save you lime and money, not to mention the inconvenience and suffering such injuries entail. For sale by all druggists.
