Mr.. GARY IS OPTIMISTIC
OVER THE INDUSTRIAL STATUS

ton in particular and the outlook gen.
orally in this country is concerned.
Prices are certainly advancing and or
ders for future deliveries are accumu-
lating. Signs Of activity and increased
demand are everywhere apparent. Cd
ders have so accumulated on the books
of the steel corporation that it has be-
come necessary to start additional fur
naces and the production is now bet
ter than since the banner season of
1907. Nearly all of the plants are run
ming full capacity and some are so
crowded with orders that deliveries are
delayed.
Consumption Calls Demand.
The constantly increasing produc-
ton is keeping pace with the demand
and the demand is not prompted by any
desire to accumulate stock. but is oc-
casiOned by actual facts merely to show
the basis for my belief that we are en-
tering on an era OF prosperity of great
er or less duration, and 1 firmly believe
it Will prove greater than any for years
past. I speak of iron and steel condi
tons particularly because they are
those with which I am most concerned
and OF which l can speak with knowl
edge. 1 have no reason to believJ they
are exceptional in this regard.
with good crops this year. for which
we have every reason to hope from re-
ports official and private, I can see
long season of great prosperity from all
lines Of business ahead for this coun-
try. And 1t has recently become to be
recognized as an established fact that
the United States figures so promi
nently in the economy of nations that
upon her prosperity or otherwise de-
ponds the prosperity to some extent of
many other countries. especially Eu-
rope. I shall be delighted TO find SINH
lar signs of awakening prosperity
abroad and hope to be in a position to
speak in similar terms with some per
sonal knowledge Of foreign conditions
upon my return home in September"

discretion. wisdom and perfect fairness
AT the outset of the meeting of con-
gress the position was taken in favor
of revision downward in accordance
with the platform. The revision there
fore is not disappointing in the reduc-
tions made.
The people of this country have rea-
son to be grateful to President Taft, his
cabinet and congress for the work the
legislation started and the promised
adoption of it. Revision downward is
satisfactory.

Stewart VIII Not Race

Irving Betz went to see c. H. Stew

about the possibility of racing their
automobiles, but was able to get no
satisfaction from him.
Mr. Betz has come to the conclusion
that Mr.. Stewart does not want to race,
although he is still awaiting the Ham

that the matter Will be dropped and
that there will be no race. according to
the way things look at the present

CAPITAL
STOCK To Be
INCREASED

The Indiana & Chicago Traction com
pany, whose franchise for Hammond
streets Mayor Becker signed last Mon
day, will be capitalized for $1,00o,000,
and possibly for $500, 900. Heretofore
the company had been capitalized for
only S100, 900. but now that the fran
chises have been secured in Hammond
East Chicago. Indiana Harbor and over
the country roads to Crown Point and
Cedar Lake. the officials Of the com
pany buried in work of organization
and selling stock.
Work VIII Soon Begin.
While the company has three months
time in which to begin building and ten
months time to complete the road be-
tween here and Indiana Harbor, it is
expected nevertheless that work will
begin before the elapse of the three
months. The franchise provides that
the company's 500 bond must be
fled with the city within twenty days
after the franchise is signed by the
mayor. This the company will do. The
company realizes that 1t must lay forty
six miles of rail- and, while it has
eighteen months time in which to
build through Hammond, its plans now
provide for rushing the work from be-
ginning to end.
Approaches should be Hurried.
According to the terms in the Ham
mond franchise, the Indiana & Chica-
go Traction company must build the ap-
proaches to the Columbia avenue
bridge. This work had already been
delayed unnecessarily long. when it
should have been done bv the CITY and
county, and now that the responsibility
rests on the company, it is hoped that
there will be no delay in completing
the approaches. The fact that the
bridge has been build shows that there
was a strong demand. which is not sat
isfed long as the structure must
stand idle, because of lack of proper
approaches.

CENTRAL HEAD FOR COLONIES
President Taft Shows Necessity fo'
Creation Of ,1ee Of Interna-
tionai Affairs.

President Taft Is showing to good
advantage his training as secretary.
at-large for the outlying territories OF
the country. The proposal for CO.
ionial secretary grew out OF the wider
reach of the dependencies OF the Uni
ted States. the vast commercial and
martial interests that center In them,
and the example Mr. Taft gave the
country of the scope OF influence that
might be exerted upon the nations OF
Europe through having someone espe-
cialiy qualified to represent the colo
MES OF the county. No one could
possibly see this nOne clearly than
Mr.. Taft himself. WITH characteristic
thought and vigor he hss addressed
himself TO the task OF giving to the
country the benefits of wiser colonial
supervision. An office OF territorial af,
FAIRS is contemplated. and when MIR.
Tart makes his recommendation the
country will he ripe to indorse Il. The
diversity In the forms OF governmeu,

Betrayed.

In their platform the Democrats saw
that Republicans cannot be trusted ::
who now will trust the Democrats?
They say they favor immediate reduc.
ZION or taxation; within the last sixty
days 1O2 OF the III Democrats I'm the
house have voted repeatedly against
reducing taxes and seventeen of thir-
ty-two Democrats in the senate have
done likewise. They say they favor
the free list for articles entering into
competition with trust controlled
products; lumber, hides and iron are
all controlled by trusts. They spe.
cifcally demand the immediate repeal
OF the tariff on lumber and they make
haste only to fasten that odious steal
upon the country for another decade.
These are political sins for which
punishment is certain They affront
decency and good faith. They reveal
degradation in our political life
which almost passes belief. They put
the Democratic party on trial not for
It's principles but for its honesty. Err.
