Moore\nAn old idea has recently been\napplied in exploiting a new /old\nseparator called the \"Wyoming\nAmalgamator.\" The inventors\nor promotors claim for this apparatus much higher recoveries\nthan can be procured by the old\nplate amalgamation, The new\ndevice was on exhibition at the\nNorthwest Mining Convention recently held at Spokane, Washington. There the exhibitors stated\nthat it had not yet been installed\nin actual permanent practice at\nany working property, but that\nin experiment with certain Ore-\ngan ores the extraction amounted\nto about 95 per cent, of the total\ngold content.\nThe main principal is the utilization of the worm principal for\nfeeding the pulp under the volume of mercury in the form of a\nthin ribbon. Thence it must rise\nto the top, and during this action\nthe claim is that all the free clean\ngold must come into contact with\nthe mercury while any rusty or\ngreasy gold on account of the\nheavier specific gravity remains\nin or falls to the bottom of the.\nbottom of the mercury. The\ntailings are then carried away\nfrom the top of the mercury bed\nby means of water under 20 lb.\npresure forced downward upon\nthe same by means of a circular\nring of vertical pipes. From the\nlaunder the mixture of water and\ntailings is run through a series\nof riffles, where it is stated that\nall \"flour mercury or black sand\nis recovered.\" As is apparent\nthere is an elimination of unnecessary agitation or vibration\nduring the process of feeding and\nin the mercury bed.\nThe idea appears to be a good\none at first glance, although practical demonstration under different conditions may expose weaknesses. But, perhaps, if snch be\nencountered the may be gradually eliminated by simple variations\nin the details of construction and\noperation. Doubtless the trouble\ndue to fouling of the mercury\npertains to this as to every other\nmethod.\nThe machine is compact, and\none of the weight of 400 pounds\nis said to be capable of treating\n25 tons daily of crushed pulp, or\nof a larger quantity of placer bar.\nThe parts are easy of transportation over pack trail and they\ncan be readilv assembled.\nTo quote the pamphlet issued\nby the promotors the advantages\nare:\n1st. Its superior ability in pan\nor pot amalgamation over plates;\n2nd, The principle of retaining\nrusty or greasy gold by taking advantage of its specific gravity\nover all other matter that could\nnot possibly be caught in plate a-\nmalgamation; 3rd. The cost of\noperation; no high-salaried man\nto operate; just install and run\nlike a clock with other machinery,\nas it works automatically; 4th.\nNo danger of over-head grease er\noil. a. the contact is made under\nthe mercury surface grease must\nstay on top; no eating through of\nverdigris from eopper in plates;\n5th. Complete control at all times\nof tailings with ability to deliver\nsame in any manner on or to concentrate tables; 6th. The most\ndominant and absolute, positively\nno slimes on sliming; 7th. With\nthe Wyoming Amalgamator the\nloss of mercury is practically eliminated.\u00E2\u0080\u0094Mine, Quarry & Derritk /'.\nTHE PROSPECTOR\nTHE PROSPECTOR.\nPublished in the interest cf Lillooet District.\nA.

To\nmy mind the most striking feature of the situation is still the\nthe general absence of vindic-\ntiveness or even contempt for the\nGerman people. Englishmen are\njoining the colors by the hundred\nthousand, but not in the \"jingo\"\nspirit. You will perhaps remember the type of man one meets\nso frequently in Lancashire and\nYorkshire\u00E2\u0080\u0094the old Puritan type\n\u00E2\u0080\u0094the man who goes to his work\nwith the sense of duty dominan,\ndoing his work thoroughly, not\nnecessarily because he likes it,\nbut because the job is to be done.\nBut few or none like the job, but\nthe job is there to be done.\nIt appears to be beyond the\nmental powers of a German to\nunderstand this. To him, apparently, war is part of his religion\nor it is nothing. He cannot understand that a nation should go\nto war because it is part of its\nreligion to destroy the worshipers of Mars, the war god. It is\nWATER NOTICE\nNotice is hereby given that the Pacific\nGreat Eastern Railway Company of\nVictoria, B.C. will apply for a licence\nto take and use One Hundred Thousand\nGallons (Imperial) Per Day of water\nout of the Fraser River which flows in\na southerly and westerly direction\nthrough the Province of British Columbia, and empties into the Gulf of\nGeorgia, near New Westminister, B.C.\nThe water will be diverted from Wells\nLocated Between High and Low Water\nMarks About Eight Hundred (8oo) Feet\nSouth of the North East Corner of Lot\nSix Hundred and Seven (6o7) Lillooet\nDistrict, and will be used for Railway\npurposes on the land described as the\nrighi of way of The Pacific Great Eastern Railway.\nThis notice was posted on the ground\non the 23rd day of March, 1915.\nThe application will be filed in the\noffice of the Water Recorder at Clinton, B.C.\nObjections may be filed with the said\nWater Recorder or with the Comptroller of Water Rights, Parliament Buildings, Victoria, B.C.\nPacific Great Eastern Railway\nCompany, Applicant,\nby (Sgd.) C. R. Crysdale, Agent.\nThis notice first appeared in the Prospector on the 2nd day of April, 1915.\nfortunate for Germany that England is not war mad, for if ever\nthe fighting blood of the country\nwere really stricken with the lust\nfor German blood, then God help\nthe Germans. Personally, I am\npraying that the Germans will\nhave sense enough not to repeat\nsuch escapades as the attack on\nScarborough.\nBehind this grim struggle Englishmen have not lost the feeling\nthat German flesh and blood are\nstill human, and, therefore, they\ndo no wish to inflict more suffering on German women and children than is necessary. For\nyears the Germans have been\nmistaking English patience for\nweakness and decadence. Now\nthey must be compelled to listen.\nIf you hear that England is determined to crush Germany beyond redemption treat the report\nwith contempt. We cannot crush\nseventy millions of people except\nat an enormous cost, nor would it\npay. The enemy is not Germany,\nbut autocracy.\nDECLINE SUBSTITUTES"@en .
