J. Shaffer, the head of the Amalgamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers, to tie up every plant of the new combine, steel, tin, tube, structural iron, wire and all. If necessary to win the fight. As tc the chance that the men in all the mills of the United States Steel cor poration will be called on to come out no one connected with the man. agcment of any of the organized plants in the new corporation will consent to be quoted.
 The Independent Companies.
 The only underlying companies in the new corporation whose mills are entirely Independent of the Amalgam- ated association are the Carnegie ln- terests and the National Tube Co. The mills of the American Steel Hoop Co.,, the American Tin Plate Co.,, and the Republic Iron and Steel Co.,, are all organized, while most of those of the American Sheet Steel Co.,, and the National Steel, American Steel and Wire, and American Bridge plants works under the Amalgamation asso- ciation.

COMMENTS ON. NATIONAL IRnI.

Slowly but surely the importance
Of q national system OF irrigation Is
beng impressed upon the United

and will in a few short years, take
hold Of this importout question:
Paso Robes (Cal.) Record.
There are rot a few people in
various sections OF the country, not
directly interested i'll the work Of
irrigation, who recognize that every
reclaimed acre of land means Il
stimulus 10 business, and an eventual
benefit to the country means more
crops, increased population, advanced
civilization, new needs, and conse-
quently Il greater volume Of business
What Congress has to guard against
is schemes to benefit nero private
enterprises at public expense. a
project so guarded will be beneiiceDt.
and the people OF overy section OF the
country can consistently approve it.
