[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.

'> 'i , 1 e FOURTEENTH YEAR. PHOENIX, B.C., SATURDAY, SEPT. 14, 1912 Number 9 \< Phoenix Events 1903 Through the courtesy of Dave Oxlew we were recently permitted to glance through a small file of Phoenix Pioneers, of 1903-04, from which we have culled the following paragraphs: Since commencing ore shipments at 2000 tons daily by the Granby mines, the gigantic Knob hill ore crusher has been operated on double shift. , Palmer Cook, who has been employed at tlie Granby mines for five years without a break, left "oh Monday on a three month's visit to his old home at Granby,- Quebec. J. L. Martin, secretary of the local hospital, received a check for $100 dollars from C. S. Houghton, a member of the Granby directorate who visited Phoenix last summer. L. Y. Birnie and family started this week for an overland trip to Lake Chelan, in the American Okanagan. They will drive their own team the entire distance, being absent about a month. This week the local Methodist church became possesed of some good Great Northern money, when the parsonage lot on the right of way in lower town, was sold to the railsvay company. Rev. E. P. Flewelling, vicar of St. Joon's church, received a telegram from F. Stanley Long, secretary of the church board, notifying '0 him that he had been called to the church in Dawson city. Joseph Bassett, of Hartford junction, returned a few, days ago from u month's visit to his brothers, prosperous farmers in the Santa Clara ��� valley, '.California: He also saw San Francisco, Portland . and the Pug-et sound cities while away. Thomas Roderick has been spending the week here from Summit camp, where he is working on the Summit group, in which he and G. VV. Rumberger recently purchased a half interest from the estate of the late Archie Connor. Tom thinks it is a likely wildcat. Miss Sarah Clarke, accompanied by her father, W. X. Clarke, from Fairhaven, Wash., arrived last Tuesday, on a visit to her sister Mrs. A. D. McKenzie. Mr. Clarke was formerly a resident of Phoenix,, and Miss Clarke has been teaching school at Faiihavenl Last Monday evening the annual business meeting of St. Andrew's church took place. The board of managers chosen for this year consists of Messrs. I. Crawford, G. E. Dey, J. W. Hannam, ;J." S.: Boyce, D. Murray, A. S.: Williamson and Thomas Brown. The financial report showed receipts from Jan. 1, 1903, to March 1, 1904, to be $1316, and a balance of $10 on hand. Automobile Road Construction E. Spraggett, of Grand Forks, road supt. for that riding, paid a visit of inspection, this week, to the Phoenix end of the new Grand Foiks road construction. Jos. Dar- ragh, in charge of the work, stales that they have already completed a full mile of the highway, which has a width of sixteen feet. The work so far has been of a very heavy nature, necessitating the use of a large quantity of powder. There are now 25 men engaged, with five teams, and another couple will be added in a few days. Mr. Darragh thinks he will reach the C.P.R. crossing at Oro Denora in about a month. B.C. Mining | The Lucky Jim is now shipping a car of Zinc ore a day, or about a thousand tons per month. ' Ghas. Camsell, Dominion geologist, is shortly to make an examination of the coal basin at White lake. ; Philip White, owner of the Stirling mine on Wild Horse creek, near Ymir, is responsible for the statement that a rich strike of ore has recently been made on his property. ������������,���'"���' \ Last week but one the Bluebell mine, at Riondel, made its heaviest shipment of silver-lead concentrates to Trail smelter since operations were resumed this summer: The shipment was 222 tons. John Bekke and W. Crovvnan representing tne Canadian Consolidated company, are looking over that company's property..on Cooper er,eek, which have been lying idle for some considerable time. Capt. Harry Johns of the B.C. copper company, has been examining the development work on the L H group, near Silyerlon, on Redistribution of Seats According to the Toronto News correspondent, who , has secured a statement from an official of the secretary of the state department, Alberta will give five'new seats when-the redistribution bill comes before the house at its next session. The west will give no fewer than twenty-two new seats. Manitoba's representation will be increased from ten to fifteen, Saskatchewan will get six new ones, and British Columbia six new seats. The bill'will provide for fourteen new members. While the west will get an increase, the east in most cases wilj be decreased. Ontario .will lose four seats, New Brunswick one, Nova Scotia two seats, and Prince Edward Island one. The following are the figures of the representation as it will likely stand by-the next redistribution bill: Noxt Ln>>t Election Election Ontario 82 86 Quebec 65 65 New Brunswick 12 13 Nova Scotia 16 18 Prince Edward Island 3 4 Manitoba 15 10 t Saskatchewan........ 16 10 - Alberta 12 7 British Columbia .... 13 7 Yukon 1 1 ! His Wish Fulfilled "Kind hearts are more than coronets," and Phoenix surely must possess a surfeit of the former. This week another instance occurred which showed the readiness of the men of Phoenix to extend the helping hand, although in this case the one chiefly interested is sleeping his long sleep on the hillside below the town. ! Some few weeks ago a man named Herman Franzene arrived in town from the coast,- and shortly afterwards commenced work in the Granby mine; after working about six shifts he was obliged to seek the shelter of the local hospital, where it was found he was in the last stages of consumption. Under the circumstances . nothing could be done but-make him comfortable and await the end, which came on Sunday last. The poor fellow appeared to be quite friendless and before he died expressed a wish that a certain sum of money be forwarded to his children in Sweden. The situation, however, was such that the money would have been required to defray the funeral expenses, but John Skoglund interested himself in the case and raised the requisite sumof money among the members of the Scandinavian Aid and Fellowship society. The deceased was a widower and about 36 years of age. The funeral took place on Wednes ANOTHER BIG BLAST AT MOTHER LODE MINE J'-F"pVi f Upwards of 20,000 Tons Brbke- \lA Tons Powder Used. Another big blast was fired this week at the British Columbia Copper company's Mother Lode mine, when ore to' the extent of 20,000 or 30,000 tons was broken down. The event is but one of a series of huge explosions inaugurated by the superintendent, E. Hibbert, in 1911, and briefly outlined consists in dividing the ofe body into a series of transverse stopes, having a maximum width of about 25 feet, thus breaking down the ore in large quantities. The recent blast cannot be compared with previous ones, some of which resulted in the breaking down of 130,000 tons of ore, and required the drilling of 2433 holes of an average depth of 14 feet, while tO-Hj tons, of forty per cent powder were used. Nevertheless the amount of ore broken seems very satisfactory when the small amount of explosive used (1)4 tons) is taken into consideration. 1 I ii ; I Orchard,.marauders this week visi, tod tho plantation, of Haipli Pope/on which his company has a bond.

The recipient was much affected, and in thanking the members for their gift and parting wishes, said that although she had been preparing herself for the final leave-taking for some time, it had not softened the blow now that it had come. She would always trea- ure clearly the memories of Phoenix. The dancing, which commenced at nine o'clock, terminated at half-past one the next morning. Mr. and Mrs. Pickard have been residents of Phoenix for the last twelve years, coming here from the Maritime provinces. The music for the dance was furnished by Messrs. F. Werner and Chas. McKay, to whose excellent playing the success of the entertainment is in a large measure due. B. C. Copper Treatment The B. C. Columbia company's smelter treated 12,681 tons of ore this week, as follows: Mother Lode, 5,914; Rawhide, 6,349; Napoleon, 283; others, 135. House Destroyed by Fire The shrill shriek of the fire syren disturbed the stillness of the camp early on Sunday morning last and brought the people hurriedly into the streets. The (ire department made the run to Ironsides avenue, where the residence of George L. Flkitis was found in a blaze. The fire, however, had got a big start, and little could be done except protect the adjoining Tromblay residence. Fortunately the structure stood rather isolated and little anxiety was felt for the safety of the houses around. The loss, unfortunately, was complete, the building being levelled to the ground and the contents wholly consumed. Both house and furniture were covered by insurance.

Miller leave today for a visit to Storm Lake, Iowa. Born���At Phoenix, on Sunday, September 8th, to Mr. and Mrs. G Wharton, a daughter. Several local amateurs were discussing recently the advisability of forming a camera club. The idea was considered a good one and a meeting is liable to be called in a few days. During the absence of A. S. Hood, the business in connection with fire insurance will be attended to by Jos. Strutzel, at the Granby office, to whom all payments may be made. Grand Forks 3rd Annual Fair The time does not seem far distant, when our neighbour, Grand Forks, will be laying justifiable claim to the largest and most important city in the province, outside of the coast municipalities. Just now everything seems to tend that way; the decision of Canada's big railway company to make of it an important divisional point, the enormous tracts of agricultural lands which surround her, together with its potentialities as a mining centre, are amply s��ufficient to warrant the foregoing prophecy. Within the last few weeks there has been a noticeable rise in the value of real estate, both in and adjacent to the Forks, and in other ways there are unmistakable signs manifesting themselves which clearly indicate the advent of what might be termed a "legitimate" boom. Just now its citizens are busying themselves with the arrangements in connection with their third annual fair, and to judge by the ambitious program which has just reached us, the event promises not only to eclipse its predecessors, but also to rival in importance the older established fairs of the'province. Certainly the monetary inducements are not lacking'. Phoenix may not be able to send a string of thoroughbreds to represent her on the Grand Forks course, although we have a few wind- splitters in our stables that might head the procession up the home stretch. But the long suit of this mountain burg is our troop of motor cycle experts who should be on hand when the starter gives the word. The dates set for the fair are September 26 and 27. The Rev. R. Griffith, of Spokane, will conduct a Welsh service tomorrow, Sunday, in the Miners' Union hall. The hours are: Morning, 10.30; evening, 7.30; Sunday school, 2.30. Mrs. W. Cook, with her little son Max, arrived from Rossland, on Wednesday, and have taken up their permanent abode on Brooklyn avenue. Mr. Cook is at the Mother Lode mine on Sheep creek. The popular Werner's orchestra are to give one of their favorite dances on Monday next, in the Union hall. Mr. Werner, while away, kept his eyes open for new selections and returned with a fine assortment of the latest favorites, some of which will be heard on Monday evening. A report from Hazlcton states that two feet of clean ore has been found on the surface of another vein, 400 feet above and south by east of the big shaft on the Silver Standard mine. The find was the result of the prospecting started by the superintendent a couple of weeks ago, while waiting for repairs to the pump in the shaft. The supt., after finding some promising float, set some men to work at a likely spot, with .the result that at three feet from'the surface they uncovered this big shoot of high-grade ore, consisting of grey copper and 60 J per cent lead. On tlie Glen Moiin tain claim, on the Same property, another body of ore was uncovered, averaging about eight feet in width DO YOU WANT TO MAKE MORE MONEY IN placing your Newspaper Advertising, place the greatest value on the paper with, the greatest influence on its readers. til Use the medium that is watched for every week by the people of your community. p end the money with the paper that is read with interest.

Roy, to Vaticouiiver, to be replaced by an English-speaking officer from Halifax, says the Montreal Witness. It seems to think, as French-speaking Catholics want a French priest, so French-speaking soldiers want a French commander. Under that rule we should think the grievance of Vancouver would be far greater than that of Montreal, as at Vancouver there are.no French-speaking corps whereas in Montreal the majority are English-speaking. . On the contrary we should think that all who wish to see Canada become a nation would take pleasure in .seeing an English district commanded by a French officer, and a French district by an English officer. We have always noticed that it was a part of military management to shift as much as possible from place to place. We should certainly look for more detachment and a fresher life through that process. This rule is observed in organizations other than military. The diplomatic service of most countries keeps iota- ting. The agents of the Roman Catholic,religious orders are frequently moved on. The late General Booth, who was nothing if not Rivali-jr Between Cities , Evidently His Royal Highness the Duke of Connaught during the short time he has been: with us, has not-been going around with-his eyes shut or his ears stuffed with cotton batting. He has heard of the intense rivalry between the growing cities ofthe west, and while at Port Arthur took the opportunity of deprecating in. strong terms the insane jealousy that exists between that town and its near neighbor Fort William. In doing so, the duke struck a splendid note, which will find a sympathetic echo in every part of the rapidly advancing west. It would be idle to deny that in this province we are free from such spectacles. We are not; but we ought to be. 644 TT'S a well-known say- ���*��� ing among the well dressed men.

Bill was a real boy scout in his day.

Thev must not be too severe, however, or else the craving for food is apt to be destroyed entirely and the services of an undertaker called in. The learned savant has informed the French press that he has tried the system on himself with satisfactory results. So hereafter when the shadows of Dusty Rhodes and Turnpike Tompkins darken our doorsteps and crave the honor of sampling a slice of the old lady's pie, all that is necessary is to take the visitors into the kitchen and administer a few mild shocks from the family battery. Then there is the case of those hysterical females, the old country suffragettes. Just imagine the load of anxiety that this important discovery will remove from the shoulders of an English prison governor, who has been charged with the care of a bunch of political window smashers. In vain will they go on hunger strikes. It'll be no use now. No more will it be necessary to feed them broth through the nose. The electric battery will feed them in future.

Take the case of the evergreen. How many persons can pick out a Douglas fir, a hemlock, a spruce or a cedar, and be sure they are right? The difference between a cedar and the others is so great that some may be surprised at its inclusion in this list, but a great number of people are not quite sure what a cedar is. d. l.
