Wilson S meaning is clear. Among
all the hidden shoals OF modern
politics there is none so preg-
nant with evil for society than
that method OF political compro-
mise so much affected by so many
of our men in high places. Mr..
Wilson sounds clear note Of
warning against the practice Of
placing OF unworthy man in po-
sitions OF great trust and great
influence merely because these
men have built up great political
or financial organizations that
demand recognition. If we read
his words Alright, he warns the
people to use greater caution in
dealing with the man who fears
to express his transformations
and act according to them, than
in dealing with the knave who is
known as such. May the gospel
of Woodrow Wilson be spread
among thepeople Of many states.
Political conditions Idaho
would not suffer if the people
would seriously consider his
preachments. Moscow Post.

CURIOUS GOLD
AMALGAMATOR

In the early days of mining on
the Pacific coast there were many
strange devices introduced, both
in the mines and the mills.
Among them was curious contri-
vance for saving fine gold in
stamp mills. 1t was placed be-
low the usual run of copper
plates, the object being to save
the gold which otherwise would
have escaped in the tailings. 1t
consisted OF a series of slightly
inclined sluices each II feet long
and 30 ms. wide. The bottoms
of these boxes were lined with
copper, which we're covered with
a film OF quicksilver thoroughly
rubbed in. These bottom plates
were studded with iron pegs 4
ms. high and x in. square. They
were set L ms. apart, each sue
ceeding line of them being offset,
or staggered" with reference to
the next row OF pegs. The pegs
We're arranged diagonally, that
is, a sharp edge, and not a side,
was exposed to the flow Of pulp
as it came down the sluice. Each
cap of iron was covered with a
closely-fitting square Of amalga-
mated copper. 1t is said that
this device saved a good percent
age'of the gold in the ore, even
after it had passed the copper
plates, blanket sluices, pans,
buddles, and other arrangements
for catching gold in the mill
proper. The stream of tailings
swirled among the copper-cover-
ed pegs, and the fine gold which
escaped the mill above was said
to have been readily amalga-
mated on these pegs. Great
claims were made for the device
in it's day, and it was patented,
OF course, as almost every met
allurgical device is, whether it is
worth anything or not. The
above described gold-saving de
vice has probably long since pas
sed out OF the minds of those to
whom it was familiar in the lat
ter COS, and the younger gener-
alton possibly never has heard
Of it, but it would be an easy
matter to test its value in any
gold stamp mill, or any other
sind OF an amalgamating gold
mill. Mining World.
