ANDREF EXPLAINS, His Iron Booth and His Bid Warmly Detended. Mr. Gustav @ Andreen feels that he has been dono an Injustico by the publication in Tur Bee of an interview with a local con- tractor who found fault with Mr. Andreen’s plans for iron polling booths. “Tne disgruntad contractor,” said Mr. Andreen, *complained that my bid for the booth did not include floor, windows or doors. TLat was wrong. My bid was for the booth complete, excopt floors, and the committao had decided that floors wero not needed. He also stated that much of the work would have to be done in the east. which is also wrong. I would buy my iron the same s &ny other contractor would buy his lumber, All of the work would be done in Omaha by Omaha men_and my soventeen years’ resl- dence and business career in Omaha ought to be guaranty enough that I am not i this business for boodle. The figure at which I bid will leave no margin for boodling. As to tho durability of iron and wooden booths I will leave it to the public to judge whether iron will crack, warp and crimp and get out of repair as quickly as wood will or not. With any kind of decent caro an iron booth will last twenty-five years, while no amount of care will keep a frame booth in condition longer than three or four years.” S e Western Pensions.

C. Wicker, of the Harnoy l'eak Tin Mining compan the Wellington, “to tirst deterinine to what elass of concentrition belongs. Then the selection of the 'y is not experimental. The Harney company has too much money invested to do any guess work in this matter, as hias some- times been the caso heretofore, and before deciding upon our concentralion plant wo have employed experts from the best oro- testing and metallurgical works in tho country to examine our ore and deterniine just tho kind of machin- ery to bo used. We have been 50 conservative in this respect that wo onter- tain uo doubt as to the result. The kuowl- cdgo of tho concentration of ores has now vecome 5o extended that new works, under reasonable circumstancos,should bo a success from the start,’’ Tin Ore is Treated. Tho successful methods of concentrating ores may be aivided into two general systoms : 1. Coarso concentration, in which the ore is crushed coarsely, divided into several classes or sizes and treatod in various differ- ent concentrating machines. ! Iine conceutration, in which the ore is shed finely and treated without classifica- tion 1 one style of concentrating machine, A combination systom is_occasionally em- ployed on some ores in_which the material is “crusbed finely but clussified into two or more sizes, being treated on two styles of concentrating machines, or t tod sepa- rately on machines of ono’ stylo differently adjusted. The choice of one or the other of these sys- tems depends entirely on the nature of the ore to be treated. 'Tio ores adapted to coarse coucentration are those containing tho min- al 10 be saved in large crystals, masses or cums, 50 that when broken in comparativel large picces, a good separation is eifected be- tween wasta rock and valuable mineral, Many o ad, zine, copver and iron are of this character. ‘The ores adapted to fine concentration on the contrary, contain the valuable min- eral in = fino particles or erys- tals. sseminated — through the m of the rocl in such a manner that a coars crushing would leave the pieces of waste rock still impregnated with mineral and render a finer crushing essential. Ores of silver, gold and tin aro usually of this character, the sil- ver ores frequently comprising lead, copper zinc of secoudary importance. What isa Concentrator? A concentrator consists of aserics of floors, arranged one below the other liko the steps of a stairway. Ou tho top floor the rock is de- livered. Below this floor are placed in suc- cession,rock breakers, coarso rolls and finish- ing roils. The ore, after passing through tho oreaker, drops al onco to course rolls ana from thém into the coarsest revolving scroon of a set of 1i All ore too coarse to pass through tho perfora- tions of this screen falls from 1t, by a spout to the finishing rolls, after which it is raised by an clevator and ‘azain passes into tie first screen. In this way all ore has to pass the periorations of this screen before it mn('( ds to the concentration machinery. Ml the ore particles which pass the p forations of sereen No. | aro deiivered by a trough and inclined spout surrounding its Lower partinto scroen No. 2 of finer perfora- tions. The particles which pass through tho holes of No. # are delivered into still fine screen No. ), and so on. Tho particles which remain on these screous are all of about the same size, that is, smalier than the holes of tho proceding screon and larger than tho loles of the screen they remain on. Theso screens dischargo their con- tents continuously to a correspouding number of pigs placed below. “The pigs separate the heavy mineral parti cles from tho hght waste particles of rock. “The screening is usually done wet, with jots of water washing tho screens to keep them clear. “Fho material too small to bo caught on the last and fiuest revol: sereen either tlows into large pointed settling tanks to be rid_of tho excess of water (the thickenod pulp being dra off below to the slime dressing ma- chino), ort is run over hydraulic classificrs, in which an upward stream of water produces a more perfect sizing than mero sctthing boxes. Somotimes Lwo rock breakers are put crush directly from tho other, thus preparing the rock in largo quantities for the rollers and relieving the latter, Additional Machinery Described, Somo mwills have, in addition to the machinery described, a battery of stamps recrushing tailings from jigs, which must b pulverized finer to liberato tho mineral par ticles. Ior tin ore this is found necessary, small particles of mineral being carried by picces of rock several times the volume of tho mineral in_ sizo, but so small and light that they have been carried past the provious saving divices. “Tho slimo o ores like tin The machino this purpose aro tho the Embrey concent he Frne vataer is an endloss rubber belt sppuorted by rollers S0 w3 to form & plane inclined rubber surface four feot wide, twelve feet long and vounded on the sides by rubber flanges. The belt travels up the incline andround a lower drom which dips into water tang where the mineral is collected. In addition to the steudy travel of the belt, the latter receives a steady shaking or soutfing motion from a crank shaft along ouo sic The shake is at rightangles to the clination and travel of tho belt, The orc is fed on in a stream of water about threo feet from the head of the belt and flows slowly down the incline sub. jected so the steady shaking motion which deposits the mineral op the beit.

Patents on it were acquired in a law suit agaiust the original owners for infringe meut of the Frue vanuer patents, ‘The van- ner will probably be employed in the Harney Peak mines. As already stated in Ture Beg, the naraey company will at present put in one concen trator which will crush 230 tons cf ore per day, and iater duniicate this machinory, thus giving the mines a capacity of 500 tous.

Vho display was one that re- flected credit upon the manufucturers and a creditto the city of Omaha, whero their plant is locatea at 103 to 112 North Eleventh street. Tho gentlemen composing this com- pany camo to Omaha from the east fivo mouiths ago to settle rermanently and engage in the fence manutacturing business. Thoy invested largely, feeling contidont of the patronage and suvport of the citizens of Omaba 1o sustain and oncourage an enter- priso that is so essential 1 beautifying tho lawns of residences they surround and ad- ding to the value of the property. T'he price of theso fences is within the reach of anyone desirous of an ornamental fenco. The cost of this iron fence does not exceod that of a wooden fence, and it will outwear a dozen wooden fences. They not only beautify a Izwn, but are cheap and_durablo, lasting a lifetime. The Omaha Manufacturing com- pany is an institution deserving of tho pat- wonage and confidence of citizens und ono which should be sustained.
