Wants the Earth.

Commenting upon recent favorable
tests made upon Ruby Basin and Bald
Mountain ores by Prof. Clark at the
School of Mines, the Rapid Republican
congratulates that city upon the assured
benefits which will accrue to that place
by reason of the successful result of the
tests made; basing its hopes upon the
great (?) probability of the ultimate re-
duction of the ores at that place.
1t would evidently require large
share of the earth to satisfy the insatiate
desires and limitless demands of that
ever-straining sheet. In its relentless
greed for metropolitan supremacy the
brightest hopes of all the mining camps
of the Hills are ruthless.y dispelled.
Not content with the avowed assurance
Of becoming the future tin emporium Of
the world; with narrow gauge roads
extending into every camp where tin is
known to exist; with reduction and
smelling plants of sufficient capacity to
meet the extensive demands in this
direction, with series of railroads
heading in that direction, all of which.
and more to, are confidently expected
to center there Immediately after the
Indians sign away their right to por-
ton of the great Sioux reservation !;
with every assurance of the early re-
inauguration of further impui tant opera
aons upon the Big Bend and Great
Flrme enterprises, which, it is said, will
soon rise and shake off the chrome
inertia that has been the ruling char
acteristic of these mysteriously wonder
Iful dividend producers in the past and
score or more of other no less i'm
portant enterprises rapidly eliminating
in the prolific womb of expectation, it
now extends its elongated prehensie
paw in the direction of Bald Mountain
with view to grasp the golden product
Of that coming colorado.
The Republican should prevail upon
the board of trade to urge the advisable
ty of the early establishment of U. S.
mint at that point, which now, judging
from the statements appearing in that
paper, Enthusiastically promises to become
the leading, if not the only all wool and
yard wide mining emporium in the
northwest We have not learned
whether the Republican has yet entirely
perfected it's plans for the transmission
of the gold ores of Alaska to Rapid for
reduction; but it now appears by numer-
! Gus careful tests made at the School Of
Mines, that Rapid creek water is we'll
adapted to, and can be successfully APP

Orc Tests.

The recent tests of Ruby Basin and
Bald Mountain ores, made by Prof.
Clark at the School of Mines, are said to
have been eminently satisfactory, fully
confirming former tests made upon these
ores by that gentleman in Nevada and
California. The process employed in
the reduction Of the ores is known as
the teaching process, and is thus de-
scribed by the Rapid Republican:
The ores are first pulverized by the
crushers and stamps, and 5 per cent
common pulverized salt and similar
percentage of pulverised copper matte
mixed with it. 1t is then placed in
rotary roaster and roasted for about an
hour. After being withdrawn from the
roaster the ore is allowed to cool and
water is poured over it TO dissolve and
carry off the soda. Then the pulverized
ore is placed in vat and covered with
burlap to prevent displacement, and /
per cent solution of hypo sulphide of
soda is poured over it, and the gold and
silver leached thereby. A solution Of
calcium chloride is then used and the
gold and silver precipitated into a mass,
which Is allowed to dry, and then sent
to the furnaces TO be worked into bars.
Referring to the refractory ores of this
locality, the Rapid Republican says: !:
"The mines around Custer have been
particularly attractive to the prospector
in days gone by, but never proved prof
table on account Of the inability of the
miners of the Hills to treat them. The
teaching process. which is applied to the
Bald Mountain ores with such trium-
phant success, is the process by which
these ores of the central and southern
Hills may be made to render up their
wealth, and by the use Of that process a
far more extensive and productive
country than was Leadville In her
palmiest days will be known to the
world as existing right here in the Black
| Hills"
