being pushed. The ground on their site
was not even broken until the begin
ming of February, but there are already
fifteen buildings in course of construc-
ton. one of which. the store room, is
nearly completed and will be ready fer
the receipt OF the plants machinery
within few days. On the other de-
partments the work is being carried
on night and day
There are fifteen building being rush
ed in the plant as at present planned.
One of these is fifteen hundred feet
long. This is the main shop of the
plant, the rolling department. Others
Will range from 700 to 1000 feet in
length.
A few days ago THE TINES printed ex-
clusively a story concerning the pro-
posed enlargement of the plant of the
company Advices received since that
date indicate that the information then
received was correct. and the plans for
the new harbor. printed in another col
umn, bear out the statement that the
Tin Plate company viii eventually have
its largest establishment in Gary
The progress made upon the compa-
ny's property in Gary has exceeded that
OF any of the other concerns in opera
tion here, and appear to denote the fact
that active work will be commenced
some time during the present year.

Bowling Popular .

Bowling is not usually regarded as
a hot weather sport, but that does not
make much difference in Gary where
even the courts kick over the estab-
lished fashions and create precedents
of their own.
Last night some warm games were
rolled It the bowling alleys Of Ru-
dolph Marasz $40 Washington street.
The contest was between the South
End team and the North End team.
After two hours sweltering work the
transW Wabash track boys got away
with the $40 prize. Emil Balkovich be-
ing the high man.
These two teams that rolled last
nights games will be the nucleus of
the Marasz bowling league. which will
be organized within a short while.

roster OF the league and during the
coming fall and winter Gary may ex-
pect some lively bowling matches
Last nights bowling fans who played

DO THE DEMOCRATS REALLY
WANT A PRESS BUREAU?

the machine into control of the party
once more.
Great things could be accomplished
by Taggart and his machine if 1T were
to get complete press bureau in
operation in the state which would
send out official matter to the Demo-
cratic papers of the state The papers
would not know the difference They
would undoubtedly print the matter
sent them. under the belief that 1t was
for the good of the party, and they
would not suspect, unless 1t was point
ed out to them that Taggart was be-
hind the whole scheme. Such a plan
would give Taggart the influence Of
several hundred papers in the state,
something he could not get otherwise.
If Taggart was to get control of the
press bureau it is not to be expected
of giving Governor Marshall any more
publicity and credit than could not be
avoided. Ever since Marshall licked
Taggart and his machine in the con-
vention Marshalrs friends have had
their chin in the air, so to speak, and
have lorded it over the old crowd. But
if Taggart can get his press bureau to
running he will undoubtedly take the
hid off some one.
good many Democrats believe that
a press bureau during the campaign
could accomplish much for the party
If 1t could be run as a straight out
party affair and not degenerate into
a personal factionl Institution, but
they cnnot see how 1t ca nbe run that
way. They are afraid of the scheme.
The subcommittee appointed by the
Democratic state committee consisting
of Edward 6. Hoffman, of Fort Wayne,
George Beebe, of Anderson, and
Samuel NJ. Ralston, of Lebanon, TO ar
range for the organization of a press
bureau failed to hold a meeting in this
city this week. owing to the illness
of the wife of Stokes Jackson, state
chairman. The committee will how
ever. have a meeting at French Lick
next week when the Democratic editors
meet there to discuss campaign plans
and 1T may be that something will re-
/ suit from that meeting. It is said that
ever since it became known that the
committee was figuring on establishing
I a press bureau and that the manager
would be paid salary of $50 week
the committee has been swamped with
/ applications for the job These appli-
tions have come from all over Indiana
and many from other states.

BILLING HAS
NEW INVENTION

charles h Billings well known in
surance agent, has found new way OF
ventflating a room. The new invention
will probably be patented, and although
Billings does not expect to go into the
business man will take up the propo-
sition.
The new invention is nothing more
than a solid box made of wood which
is built the width of a window and
about two feet high. One side of the
box is left open and a piece of thin
cloth is stretched tightly across the
opening On the opposite side a hole is
made the same size as the electric fan
Is constructed on an elevated stand
The box is placed in the window and
the latter is let down so that 1t will
rest on the top of the box. The cloth
which is stretched over the opening on
one side OF the box is placed on the
outside. and when the window is down
no dust can enter the room The fan
IS on the opposite side and when in mo-
ton pure air is famed into the room
while the impure air is absorbed by the
same process.
Although inventions similar to this
one are IN use. the Billings ventilator
is different f1pn Any other, owing to
the fact that never before has anyone
used a box that fits in awindow and
ALSO that the other electric fan venti-
lators do not keep the dust out of the
room.

TINES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPITAL

Indianapolis. Ind, June 1s.-Stnce the
Democratic state committee began
talking about establishing a press
bureau for the coming campaign a good
deal of suspicion has been aroused
among certain Democrats over whether
or not the bureau will be a good thing.
The trouble seems to lie in the fact
that many of them are suspicious that
the bureau may become a personal or
factional affair. and that one faction or
the other in the party will gain con-
troll of it and use it against the other
faction. This suspicion seems to be
especially strong among the friends of
Governor Marshall. and they are not
yet decided on the question of whether
such a bureau should be established.
Some of the Democrats are firm in the
belief that If a press bureau is estab-
lished it will become merely a Tom
Tagart boosting affair and that every
for publication in the Democratic
papers of the state will have to bear
the o. K. of the French Lick boss
before it will be allowed to go out.
They all recognize the fact that Tom
Taggart is a practical politician and
that he knows the game from one end
to the other, and that press bureau
in his hands and under his domination
would be a dangerous thing for the
rest Of the party, especially when the
expense of maintaining 1t is to be paid
alrgely by the state committee and by
the state candidates. The papers
themselves are to lay a part Of the
cost Of maintaining the press bureau.
| If one is esta blished, but a large part
OF the expense will fall the can
didates and be paid from the campaign
fund.
| Taggart acknowledg ed at the state
convention, after he had been defeated
| in his effort to prevent the adoption OF
the Governors plan for the nomination
! of candidate for United States Sena-
tor. that his machine was in the scrap
heap, and a good many Democrts who
had always fought Taggart in party
affairs were tickled to death a the
turn of affairs. But they see now that
his machine has been taken from the
scrap pile and put together again and
| that 1t will be a dangerous thing. as
1t used to be, unless it is curbed. They
| believe that the establishment of the
press bureau for the campaign is a
part of the Taggart scheme to elevate

ALL EYES ARE
NOW ON NEVADA

Donald Ferguson. who some months
ago purchased the Ohio mine at Rebel
Creek, returned about a month ago
from a trip to Old Mexico. Since that
time he has been in Goldfeld, but yes
terday morning arrived in Winnemuc-
ca. Seen at the Lafayette last evening
by representative of the Silver State
and asked about his trip and his in
tentions in regard to working the Ohio,
Mr.. Ferguson replied:
"My trip to Mexico was for the pur-
pose of settling up some old business
matters, and not to engage in mining.
A man would be crazy to go into that
business in Old Mexico or anywhere
else except in Nevada. The eyes of the
mining world are again being centered
on this state, and it will not be long
before hundreds of properties, now
idle, will be working at full capacity.
81 shall leave for Rebel Creek in
the morning to see how we are get
ting along at the Ohio. Since purchas-
ing the mine last summer we have had
small force of men at work cleaning
up, preparatory to beginning work on
an extensive scale. Early in the spring
We shall put a large force of men at
work and shall erect a mill to handle
our own product

DEMOCRATIC

1t is now been definitely determined
that the new legislature will be Demo
cratic on joint ballot. la the senate
there will be 13 Democratic senators
to six Republicans, while in the assem-
bly, there will be % Democrats and %
Republicans, with Clark county in
doubt.
By the act of 1907 the assembly
was composed of AS members, but in
1909 a law was passed increasing the
representation of Humboldt county
from three to five members and allpw-
ing one to the new county of Clark.
This act, however, was declared uncon-
stitutional, and this county elected
but three members, as formerly, hut
Clark county went ahead and elected
its one member. Should he be seated
the next assembly will consist of 40
members.
On the face of the returns Deadly has
a slight lead over Ahern for surveyog'
general. Complete returns have not az
yet been received from Elko. Esme
ralda, Lyon and Nye counties, but 1t y
not expected that these will chang
the result.

CATCH Chinese
OPIUM DEALER

Yesterday afternoon strange
Chinaman alighted from Southern Pa
cific No. 6, carrying a small suitcase.
He started for the business portion of
the town, but had not proceeded far
before he was noticed by Shriff Lamb,
who evinced a curiosity regarding
the contents of the "grip." The
Chink was escorted to the county jail,
and when asked to open the suitcase,
claimed that he had lost the key. The
Sheriff obligingly found a key that
would fit, and opened up the valise,
when it was found to contain eight
onethird pound cans of opium,
bearing no revenue stamps, and valued
at $3.50.
Sheriff Lamb at once swore to a
complaint before United States Com
missioner Bonnifeld, charging the
Chinaman, who gave his name as Lee
All, residence San Francisco, with
having in his possession and transport
ing smuggled opium. The prisoner
will be given preliminary hearing
some time next week.

ADELAIDE MAY
RESUME soon

There is prospect that the question
of opening up the Adelaide mine at
Golconda will soon be settled.
Supt. G. G. Smith, who has been in
town during the week attending the
meetings of the grand jury, of which
he is a member, reports that last
spring the Scotch and English stock
holders employed the Constant -Herzig
company, firm of New York mining
experts, to make an examination Of
the property. Bryan X. Moorse was
sent out from New ork by the firm
last April to make the inspection and
report. Some two months ago G. s.
Herzig, member of the company,
came west to make an inspection of
the Glasgow & Westerns properties
for the purpose of confirming the re-
port of Morse. While at work on the
Star mine at Cherry Creek, he was
called back to New York on urgent
business and has not yet returned.
For several months past crew of
IL men has been engaged, with three
pumps, keeping the mine clear of wa
ter, in anticipation of favorable re-
port. Should it be decided to start up
again, it will mean much for Golconda
and Humboldt county.

Canal TO BE
FINISHED in 1913

A press dispatch from Panama states
that the canal will be completed De-
cember l, 1913 This information was
given to President Taft while inspect
ing the famous Gatun dam. The Official
date of the opening remains January
/, 1915, Lieutenant Colonel Goethals
desiring one year in which to train the
can tenders and to get the machinery
working smoothly. Ships in the mean
time will be granted the privilege of
the canal, but at their own risk of de-
lay.
In addition it was announced by the
colonel that the report that President
Taft visit was the forerunner of a
request for another $100,000,000 from
congress was unfounded. The canal
will be completed in 1913, he said,
within the $375,000,000 already author
ized.
The president was pleased at the out
lock for the early completion and con
graduated Colonel Goethals. He ex.
pressed amazement at the work accom-
plished since his visit in February
1909. He displayed knowledge of the
technical details that surprised the of
fcials, his familiarity dating back to
the time he was secretary of war, when
he advocated lock canal as against
sea-level system. He was greatly
surprised at the immensity of the dam
some idea of which can be gained
from the fact that the train was un'
der way nearly three hours on the spur
tracks overrunning the great fills.
