1t will probably be necessary for
the city OF Hammond to pass some
franchise measures in order to pro-
vide transportation TO the plant of
the Northwestern Iron Co.
This is an opportunity for Ham
mond to assert itself where East
Chicago has failed. The public
spirited citizens of Hammond should
at once take up the question of
routing these additional lines.
1t is up to Hammond to set an
example to the rest of the cities of
the region in the matter of etxend-
ing their hearty cooperation to the
industry which has located there.
The Northwestern Iron Co. is iu
exactly the same position that the
Baldwin Co. was two months ago
1t is ready and anxious to begin the
two years job Of building an eleven
million dollar plant. Hammond
should decide its franchise matters
with a degree of dispatch that will
arouse the admiration of the indus

WHAT VAUGHAN DID.

President Samuel Vau CLAIM of
the Baldwin Locomotive Works is a
man of action. No sooner had he
agreed to the purchase of the land
at Calumet than he sent corps of
engineers to the site of the land and
instructed them to get busy.
The appropriation for the build
ing of the plant had been made. a
purchasing agent was sent out 10
make all OF the necessary purchases.
Had the franchise matter been set
tied within a few weeks, as was ex-
pected, there would have been hun
dreds of men on the ground now and
millions of dollars would be in the
process of distribution for construc-
ton purposes.
Vau CLAIM miscalculated the spirit
of enterprise in this part of the
west. He had grown accustomed to
the sloth of Philadelphia but
thought things would be different
here.
He thought the people of East
Chicago would be so anxious to have
the work of construction commenced
that they would keep pace with him
in his plans to rush the work He
was sorely disappointed.
After a few days he sent his engi-
neers his purchasing agent and his
head men back to Philadelphia

the plant will be built this year lie
