AFTER RICH ORE LAND.
Rumored Purpose of the U. S. Steel
Corporation-Not Hills Asset.

A news item by telegraph from st. Paul
reporting that the United States Steel Cor
poration has made an offer for all of James
]. Hills ore property was printed in Wall
street yesterday. 1t is generally known, of
course, that an agreement whereby the
Steel Corporation may take over this ore
land and operate on it is likely to be made.
That is not the subject of this paragraph.
The ore deposits in question, estimated at
500 600, 900 tons, are an asset, not of James
]. HILL but of the Great Northern Railroad.
In acquiring control of natural resources,
such as ore bodies, and of other undeVelop-
ed property in the territory of the Great
Northern Mr.. Hill anticipated the natural
course Of development in a highly sagacious
manner but 1t has been his policy to turn
all such assets over to the railroad, re-
serving nothing for himself personally or
vidual interests have thus been subordi-
mated to the interests of the railroad, and
the Great Northern, therefore. has not been
the means. of creating vast personal
fortunes.
1t is Mr.. Hills boast that neither himself
nor his heirs have been enriched privately
at the expense of the railroad. 1t is due to
this policy, rigidly adhered to, that the ore
deposits, for possession of which the Steel
Corpora ton is now negotiating, are the as
set of the company and not the property of
an individual. Mr.. Hill has never drawn
dollar of salary from the Great Northern
treasury.
