Gold associated with carton
does not amalgamate with mer
cury. it can now be recovered by
a method developed by the United
States Bureau of Mines which in
cludes flotation for the concentra
tion of the refractory minerals, a
special low-temperature roasting
of the concentrates, and cyonida
of the calcine for almost complete
recovery of the gold.
In large copper concentrating;
mills value in gold per ton of ore
is usually so low that its recovery
has been given little consideration.
The totals per year indicate a
large gold loss. It is shown that
recoveries are improved by careful
control of the alkalinity in the flo
tation circuit. In one instance a
recovery of 50 percent of the gold
was raised to 85 percent, with the
same copper recovery.—Denver
Mining Record.
A SUGGESTION
Look at the bottom of your
shoes; if worn or thin, have them
half-soled. It may prevent a hos
pital bill.

Louis Kessler, deputy sheriff in
Seattle, brother of Mrs. S. N.
Laurie, of Cordova, has established
himself in the hearts of those who
j believe that legal and honest
methods should be pursued by law
1 enforcing officers, says the Cordo
va Times. Mr. Kessler refused to
snoop and turned in his badge
when ordered to do so. i
Concerning' the case a recent is
sue of the Seattle Star says.
“Rather than serve under Sheriff
Bannick as a “stool pigeon”, he
said, Louis Kessler, deputy sheriff
turned in his badge- Kessler de
clared that he refused to go into
suspected liquor places and buy;
liquor. Bannick said he didn’t have
enough funds to keep Kessler
He had worked for years in
the civil department, serving all
the warrants that the other dep
uties were unable to serve. He was
transferred to the criminal de
partment recently.
“Bannick says that as long as
you have, a badge on you can’t be
a stool pigeon’’. Kessler said, “Welt
if buying liquor from a man and
then squealing isn’t being a stool
pigeon, i don’t know
work means.”

Attention Alaskans!
SEND SAMPLES AND PRICE
Anyone, or any group of Alaskans, who can assure quantities of
Alaskan commodities suitable for export purposes, are asked to get
in touch with the undersigned.
There is a tremendous market awaiting Alaskan products in the
Orient and it is the ambition of Mr. Kawabe to have, within the next
few years, such a business underway. He believes it will require that
length of time before the necessary tonnage of 1,000 tons per ship
ment from the Port of Seward, can be assured.
Numerous local inquiries have been directed to Mr. Kawabe as to
just what his plan was; it appears his first announcement which has
been appearing in The Gateway for the last week, was not quite
clear. Briefly, Mr. Kawabe desires samples of Alaskan products—any
kind which may be produced in quantity; the samples must be ac
companied by the lowest figure which the item can be supplied. Both
the sample, be it various grades of salt fish, grains, kelp, coal, etc.,
will be forwarded to the Orient where agents will endeavor to find
a demand. If there is a market for certain of these samples and the
price is satisfactory, orders will be sent Mr. Kawabe and it will be
up to him fill it.
The skeptical will no doubt say there isn’t a chance to develop
such an export trade from Aalska but not only Mr. Kawabe and
others connected with him locally, but prominent Japanese officials
are greatly enthused over his proposed plan. Believing that unless
Alaskans themselves develop the Territory’s resources, 20 years from
now, or more, will see but little progress, is the thought behind Mr.
Kawabe’s entire plan. He is looking toward the industrial Alaska of
the future. He is visioning a bigger and better Alaska for all.
