IOWA DELEGATION
Will Be IN Line
FOR FAVORITE son
Little Interest in Presiden-
tial Preference Primary
Because Candidates Have
No Opposition.

Des Moines, Ia. March 1f.-Althongh
the presidential preference primaries
in Iowa are less than a month away.
| comparatively little interest is being
manifested in them by the general
public. The chief reason for the lack
of interest among the voters is the
fact that there is no contest on for the
presidential Endorsement in this state.
Iowa Republicans are for Senator
Cummins for president. He viii have
| the Hawkeye state delegation to the
Chicago convention and IL Il becomes
evident that he cannot secure the nom
ination, the delegation will be his own,
to do with as he pleases. He will be
able TO throw it to any other candidate
he chooses.
The Cunmins men are using Des
Moines as a headquarters for their
propaganda and are going Into all the
other western states for converts.
They expect to go Into the Chicago
convention with nucleus Of Iowa,
Nebraska, Minnesota and one or two
other western states.
The Iowa Progressives, too. will have
q delegation at the Chicago convention
Of their party. The Progressives have
kept up their organization In this
state. although they are not believed
TO be so numerous as they were four
years ago. Most Of the Iowa Republi-
cans Of Progressive sentiment have
followed Gummins and not Roosevelt.
The real bull moosers. however have
refused to return to the Republican
fold and are maintaining their sepa-
rate party organization.
Iowa Democrats are unanimously for
Wilson. They are of the opinion that
II Wilson cannot be elected. no other
Democrat can. Iowa never went Demo-
cratic in a presidential election until
four years ago. when the split In the
Republican ranks gave The Democrats
an easy victory Their only fear at
present is that Cummins may secure
the Republican nomination. with any
other candidate at the head of the Re
publican ticket they believe they can
keep Iowa safely In the Democratic
column.

WONDER CITY OF
. INDIANA TO HAVE
BIG CELEBRATION
Gary Rounds Out the First
Decade of It's Existence
With a Population of
Fifty Thousand.

Gary, Ind, March 17.-Ptans are be-
ing discussed here for an appropriate
celebration next month OF the tenth
anniversary OF the birth OF the city of
Gary. The city has had the most re-
marlSable growth and development OF
any municipality on the American con-
tinent and the citizens believe that the
rounding out of the first decade OF its
history is an event worthy OF ceiebra-
tion.
Ten years ago, April 1s, 1906, officials
Of the United States Steel corporation
caused q carload of cinders to be
dumped on the sand dunes over which
has since spread the city OF Gary Six
years later the population of the place
was 10000. This year ii Is in excess Of
the $4,000 mark.
From the time the first load OF ma
terial was dumped on the shore OF Lake
Michigan Gary has prospered. It Is a
city made to order. The steel trust,
through its subsidiary, the Indiana
Steel company needed a large city with
a population largely devoted TO the
MANUFACTURE of steel and allied prod
uets It's plans were carried out in a
systematic way until today the city of
Gary furnishes most striking ex-
ample Of the power of wealth to Gre
ate wealth.
The great mills OF the steel corpora
tion attracted other manufacturing
plants. so that many square miles that
were nothing but sand wastes decade
ago are now covered with yards and
and miles OF city streets
have been thrown out into the open
country.
