WORLD COMBINE AS STEEL
TRUST IS GARY'S PLAN

Brussels. July 6---Judge Ebert H.
ton of competition On the manufacture
OF steel was unanimously approved by
representatives of the leading steel
companies of the world at yesterdays
conference. A committee was appoint
ed to consider plan of organization
and report today.
In explaining his proposition for n
worldwide combination along the lines
of the American Iron and Steel Insti-
tute, Judge Gary. who presided over
the conference. said the object was Ito
prevent the destructive fuctuation of
steel prices, and maintain a business
dustry."
Let us assume" said Judge Gary.
that during a given year the demand
for product equals less than one-haif
of the capacity to produce. and yet each
producer is greedy and anxious TO sell
more than his fair proportion and acts
accordingly, and this attitude is main
tanned until destructive results which
we all know are almost cvertain to be
realized.
"Goiden Rule I'm Business."
| There should be established ana
continuously maintained a business
friendship which compels one to fee
the same concern for his neighbors thai
he has for himself. 1t is less In
principle than the Golden Rule applied
to business. Is it possible? II it is /
will lbe certain to pay"

w. G. BROWN
FOR SENATE
Especial to THE TIMES. }

/ Indiana Harbor. July s.-People In
this city who are Interested in the ca
reer of w. c. Brown. president of the
New York Central lines. and one OF the
most potent factors in the shaping of
the destiny of the Calumet region, read
with interest this morning the state
ment that Mr.. Brown will resign his
office as railroad head and is an avow-
ed candidate for senator from Iowa.
The Record Herald this morning has
this to say regarding the action of the
big railroad man:
New York, July "a dispatch from
Des Moines, Iowa. today stated that
w. c. Brown, president of the New
York Central lines, Is candidate for
the United States senate. Mr.. Brown
is reported to have made arrange
ments to enter the Iowa primaries next
year for the post now held by w. S.
Kenyon. former general counsel for the
Illinois Central railroad.
Before going into this fight, which
promises to be long drawn and highly
interesting. Mr.. Brown. Ii is said. will
resign from the presidency of the New
York Central lines. AS president of the
New York Central lines Mr.. Brown re-
ceives a salary of $4,000 a year. This
he will forego. according to advices
from Iowa. where he is reported to have
| eonfided his senatorial ambitions.
The attitude of the senior senate,
| from Iowa, Albert 3. Cummins. toward
the candidacy of Mr.. Brown Is in doubt
| The two men have been friends fol
forty years., but they have differed
greatly with respect to how the gov
eminent should handle the railroads.

get through with their preliminary
work 1t Is estimated that as soon as
the plant is set in operation 300 expert

set to work. This is the number of
men at present employed in the Omaha

started on at least no less an extern

The plant has been in contemplation
for considerable period, but it was a
question with the company whether to
build 1t at Calumet or elsewhere in this
ground over it was decided that be-
cause of the facilities afforded by the
Indiana Harbor Belt and for other rea-

Calumet was the logical point.

People who think that they own
choice lake front lots in blocks one.
two and three and parts of FIVE. six.
seven and eight of Calumet City, Miller
will DC surprised to hear that they own
nothing even though they should have
tax titles, warranty deeds and abstracts
galore.
A new survey completed by Melton
and Cutler. joint engineers for the Gary
park trustees and the Miller town trus-
tees have found that the land indicat-
ed is at the bottom of the lake and
therefore belong to the state.
All of blocks one two and three are
completely submerged and never have
been land The north parts of blocks
five. six seven and eight are partly sub
merged and If it came to a question of
ownership riparian owners would
possess title to 26 feet of water land
regardless of all other claims.
Maps Are Wrong.
Heretofore the maps have always
shown the Grand Calumet river as hav-
ing its mouth in the lake at Miller
Even the government maps show this
In reality the river does not empty into
the lake as the mouth became clogged
years ago.
All maps also show the submerg ed
land being plated, whether real es-
state sharks years ago plated the lake
bed and sold 1T to unsuspecting person.
Is not known but the deal is now re
vealed by the news surveys.
The lake did not recede." said Pres:-
dent William Olander OF the Miller
town board "On the contrary the LAKE
makes land every year. these blocks
that are plated out have always beer
at the bottom of the lake and are nov
under several fathoms of water"

closed during the hours of the fu-
neral as a mark of respect to an
old and honorable citizen.
Mr.. Jewell had been the editor
of the Tribune for thirty.three
years. He early won and held the
esteem and confidence of his fel-
low citizens and impressed every
one with the sturdiness of his
character. He did more than any,
one else to further the cause of the
slope country and the state. He
was a hard worker at all times, not
for what he could get out Of the
world, but for what he could put

Four Year Terms
For State Officials
Primary and Regular Election too
Expensive for Candidates Every
Other Year

If the primary election law is to
continue, there are many who be-
lieve that, the gubernatorial term,
which would cover the terms of all
state elective officials, should be
extended to larger period. At
the present time a number OF
states have the four year term
system and they have been found
to be most satisfactory, Indiana,
Maryland, Virginia, Missouri,
Illinois are among the states where
the four year term prevails. In
Illinois there is no restriction. in
the state constitution which pre-
vents the governor from accepting
a second term, while in Indiana,
Missouri and Oklahoma. the chief
executive Of the state is prohibited
from succeeding himself.
As to what plan will be adopted
in North Dakota, according to the
provisions of the proposed bill,
nothing has been disclosed, but it
it is generally considered a good
measure and has met with favor
in the lower house.
The shiriff salary bill has been
indefinitely postponed.
The bill.designed' to repeal the
enactment of 1907 by which insur-
ance agents are not allowed to
place more than a certain percent
age of insurance on buildings, was
indefinitely postponed.
No new capitol will he. built in
the near future. An appropriation
of $25, 900 may be made for re-
pairs.
A bill has been introduced in
the. senate preventing thu intro
duction of bills after the forty
fifth day of the session unless by
consent of two-thirds of the men,
