ATTRACTIVE LOOKING ORE.

visit to one of the big properties
above Russell, in Willis guIch show
ed remarkable condition of affairs.
The mine in question has a modern
plant-electric hoist, air compressor,
automatic sorter and the like. 1t Is an
old mine and extensively developed.
But the attraction of the property
lay in the large amount OF broken
ore filling an entire stope from one
level to the next above. This ore has
been broken for long time and will
now find its way to the new mill
soon to be in operation at Black
Hawk.
This subject has been treated be-
fore; hut The amount of ore was a
revelation. But even this is not the
more important of the announcement
of the condition of the property. A
walk along the level, picking here an
there a piece Of the ore held back
by the cribbing, the observer was
struck with the appearance of that
which he held in his hand. Every
lump of ore handled showed mineral.
There was much pyritis of copper
discernable, also lead and zinc and
pyritis. In fact every piece might
have proven a good cabinet speci-
men.
There was thousands of tons of
this ore. The inspection complete,
speculation as to the amount of met
ais this vast body of ore contained
was uppermost in the mind. Were
one-tenth of all that mass saved in
metallic form-this is a small per-
centage from the looks of things
consider the value Of all that would
be received were that much saved to
the owner of the mine Think of the
copper, the iron, lead, zinc, gold and
silver and sulphur, not to mention
any other metals that might be in
the ore. The value of all this If saw
ed would prove the mine a veritable
bonanza.
The returns may be insignificant
but the very looks of things should
prove the mine very valuable one
and would be considered such could
every fraction Of the metals contain
ed in the ore be saved to it's owner.
1t would seem that there is too much
waste in the attempt to save a few
ounces of gold or silver in a ton Of
ore containing other metals, which
If saved would equal in value that of
the two former There IS such
seeming liberality in the treatment
of ores to secure the more valuable.
The lesser is invariably sacrificed.
1t does not seem reasonable that this
should be the condition. Save all.Let
not one particle of metal escape. All
have value and would add immensely
to the income of mine.
OF course science it at fault. It has
not developed to such condition
that any metal can be saved, at least
cheaply. There ought to be a way to
separate and save every particle of
the metallic product of a mine. The
Gilpin ores always ''look" we'll be-
cause of the amount of mineral they
disclose. Viewing the ore at close
range the uninitiated see vast possi-
bilities in such a good show property.
They reason that where the metals
are SO slightly the quantity and value
ought to more than meet expecta-
tions. But mining were ever a prob
lem and one full of surprises.
Gilpin observer., 1911-01-26
A SUGGESTION
ON CONCENTRATION.

Concentration should prove to a
miner that he must resort to that in
order to secure any great per cent
Of the value in the ore. Nature has
concentration, at least where it re-
lates to gold. Waters wash the gold
into the creek bed. There to be de-
posted till discovered. 1t would seem
simple. The gold is left free of all
substances. No treatment is ncces-
sary to secure it other than to wash
away the loose surrounding gravel in
which 1t has been deposited.
OF course abundance and coarser
gold is saved due principally to it's
specific gravity. 1t is true, too. that
1t took long time to make the de-
posits of gold in the creek; and the
ground washed, to make the deposit
tions must have been enormous Most
of the gold could have been a part
of vein, the inclosing rock hard
and resisting. But the water was
able to dissolve, break up and wash
this all away leaving the gold free.
This principle applied in the con-
centration Of ores would work a rev.
olution in mining. The rock contain
ing minerals ground to an impalpable
powder and then deposited in a re-
ceptacle containing water, this CIV
en- motion which should cause the
heavier, the metallic substances, to
sink to the bottom. Then permit the
whole to remain till all the heavier
particles rest on the bottom, the top
or lighter particles then being drawn
from the receptacle should leave all
particles in the bottom of a specific
gravity greater than the water or
dirt
OF course this is more suggestive
practically as it is seen in the mind
were the pulverized metals, such as
lead zinc and pyrites. not be light
er than the water and thus remain
on top. or little below. Having
Oft most of the water. after the SUBJ
stances have settled there is no reas-
on why even the finest particles of
metal should not sink to the bottom
were the receptacle given a particu
lar motion-a sudden, quick jar
should hasten deposition.
This may read very practical in
theory. There is no doubt of its
working out all right in practice-but.
1t requires crusher and pulverizcr.
be large or a number of them. These
are part of ore treatment now. 1t
will take time for the deposition and
clarifying of the water. 1t would not
require much water. This could be
used ovor and over again.
1t would seem slow to many, but
there is no doubt OF it's success. Able
to separate the lighter or upper de-
position from the heavier and lower
should leave a concentration of every
particle of metallic substance contain
ed in the ore. Nothing would be
washed away. because the whole
would be contained in that intended
to receive it. and, as soon as the
water had given up or drawn every
particle in suspension, everything
had been placed there.
This subject has been given great
deal OF thought and is offered the
miner free, that he may work 1t out.
1t must come to something OF the
sort. What II 1t be slow but sure.
Results are expected in mining. With
no loss OF any particle OF the metal
in the ore and these saved should
help the mining industry wonderfully.
Having the ore and the process for
concentration there should be largely
Increased returns.

Declares Speaker.

"Taxation," was the subject dis
cussed by Lawson Purdy. president oi
the department of taxes and assess
. ments OF New York city. at a luncheon
rendered I'm his honor by the Detroit
Board OF Commerce in the Newcomb'
Endicott Co.'s cafe, Thursday noon
The discussion was timely, In view oi
the controversy over Detroits tax bud
get this year and the near approach
OF the tax collection. A large crowd
turned out and Mr.. Purdy's clear-cut
treatment OF the subject proved In
tensely interesting and illuminating.
He said:
I'm spite of the infinite trouble and
annoyance and expensive litigation
caused by elaborate written consti-
tutions. the people of Michigan seem
TO be still afflicted with the notion
that they require constitution which
looks like a statute book. Four or
FIVE years ago Michigan had chance
to get rid of their out worn constitu-
tion. They did not take advantage OF
the opportunity and they will be ve-y
sorry before another opportunity ar
riyes.
"One OF the great advantages pos
sessed by Canada is the freedom en-
joyed by the absence of written con-
stitution. The people of Ontario can
do what they want as soon as they
want to do il. The result is that On
tario has improved it's tax laws very
materially in the last few years, while
Michigan is still bound by the notions

"The new states OF the west have
been driven, in order to get relief,
TO devise easy ways OF amending their
constitutions, hence the adoption OF
the initiative and referendum. They
are substituting legislation by consti-
tntional enactment for legislation by
statute. The old states of the east
general have short constitutions. In
the constitutions OF New York and
Connecticut there is not one word
about what shall or shall not be tax
ed consequently we are making some
progress there.
"The constitution OF Michigan is not
so ironclad on the subject of taxation
as that of Ohio, and does give you
chance TO try few experiments with
specific taxes. II is gratifying to fnd
that last winter you initiated New
York by exempting debts secured by
mortgage on real estate after the pay
ment OF one-half of one per- cent at
the time of record. There is now pend
ing in the legislature of New York,
n bill to extend this principle to all
secured debts however they may be
secured. The measure would apply
to debts secured by mortgages on
real property In other states. includ-
ing all bonds issued by corporations
and secured by mortgage. II would
also apply to debenture bonds and to
municipal and state bonds.

OF any evidences of debt of the kind
described may send the evidence OF

WARREN AGREED TO TAFT'S
REQUEST ON SUGAR TARIFF
Michigan Man Tells Of Conference at
Which He Was Asked to Sup
port Plan.

WASHINGTON, June 22.-Presldent
Taft was drawn into the sugar trust
inquiry today by Charles B. Warren,
president of the Michigan Sugar Co.,
who told the Hardwick committee of
visiting Taft when he was secretary
Of war, and talking over the tariff on
sugar with him.
Did Mr.. Taft then give you TO un-
defstand that In the event OF his cleo
ton as president the tariff on sugar
would not be disturbed?" asked Chair
man Hardwick.
He did not" answered Warren.
I'VE talked OF sugar conditions In gen.
eral and Mr.. Taft delivered to me a
letter asking me to support his plan
for sugar concessions in the Phil
ippines. He thought could conciliate
the beet sugar interests"
did you?"
"The beet sugar interests agreed
that the Philippine concessions would
not injure the beet sugar industry and
submitted to the legislation Mr.. Taft
wanted"
President Joseph Smith. of the Nor
mon church, today notified the COM
mittee he had started for Washington
to testify and would be here probably
Monday.
Warren told the Hardwick in
vestigating committee yesterday.
that his company was free and
independent He said the Amer.
lean Sugar Refining CO. does
not control the Michigan company and
has nothing to do with the conduct OF
its affairs, although II owns some
stock.
Mr.. Warren said the company, in
1906, manufactured 72,000,000 pounds
of sugar. while in 1910. II manufac-
tured 125,000,000. This large increase
is due to the fact that the farmers
are growing more beets. He said
there are ten other plants manufac-
turing beet sugar in Michigan besides
those of the Michigan company.
