IN POLITICS The socialist party has grown less rapidly in the southern states than In Other section o the country. i A movement has been started to I make George Ade, the humorist and I playwright, the republican candidate for governor of Indiana. Knute Nelson of Minnesota Is unde cided as to whether he will be a can dldate to succeed himself in the Unit ed States senate. Three special trains have been char tered to carry the "Underwood for President" boomers from Alabama to the democratic national convention James Hamilton Lewis, democratic candidate for United States senator rrom Illinois, is oeing urgea ior lem porary chairman of the democratic na tlonal convention. Colorado democrats have delegated Mrs. Anna B. Pitzer to cast the vote of their state delegation for her brother in-lsw. Champ Clark, at ths Baltimore convention. The first state-wide primaries In Maine will be held next month, when both parties will nominate candidates for governor and United States senator. ' The national prohibition convention. which is to meet the second week In July at Atlantic City, will have a total of 1,484 delegates and an equal number of alternates. Massachusetts democrats will urge the selection of Mayor Fltsgerald . of Boston to serve ad either permanent or temporary chairman of the national convention at Baltlmrre. . Dr. Harry Lane, the democratic can didate for United States senaor-from Oregon, Is a grandson of General Jo seph Lane, who was Oregon's first territorial governor, one of her first senators and a candidate for vice president on the Breckinridge ticket In 1860. In the event of Theodore Roosevelt receivirg the nomination for president. friends of William FUnn of Pittsburg, now the recognized leader of the re publican party In Pennsylvania, declare that he will be a candidate for chalrmar of the republican national committee. Colonel Jake Wolters, who is fight ing hard to succeed Joseph W. Bailey as United States senator from Texas, is a leader ef the anti-saloon forces In the Lone Star State. He declares that if he should be elected to the senate he would make a strong fight for the passage of laws which would prevent the shipment of liquors from wet territory Into dry territory under the ln-ter-state commerce laws. The national convention of socialists at Indianapolis has called attention to the rapid growth of this party and Its increasing influence in American polltics. In 1892, when the socialists first first appeared on the national ticket, their presidential candidate polled 20,000 votes. In 1908 their vote was Just under 600,000. This year a vote of over 2.000,000 Is prophesied, or about oneseventh of the ballots of the country. THE TIMES ALWAYS HAS FOt7GMT FOR ' HE INTERESTS OF THE COMMON PEOPLE FOR THE MAN WHO.

THIS WEEK'S EQUIPMENT ORDERS A number of small orders for cars and locomotives have been placed dur ing the last few days, and yesterday several of fair size were disclosed, including orders for 500 furniture cars placed with the Haskell & Barker Car Company, of Michigan City, and for 50 locomotives placed with the Baldwin Locomotive Works, by the Chicago. Burlington and Qulncy. The American Car and Foundry Company will make 50 pay as you. enter cars for the Los Angeles- Railway, while the St. Louis Car Company will make 22 of the same kind of cars for the British Columbia Electric Railway. The Tallahassee and Gulf Railway will make Inquiries within a few days for both cars and locomotives. There are a large num ber of other inquiries before the market. Insuring good business for the equipment companies and later, for the steel manufacturers for plate, &c. Other Locomotive Orders. The Alabama, Tennessee and North ern has ordered 250 freight cars from the American Car and Foundry Com pany. The American Refrigerator I Transit Company has. contracted for 1,000 refrigerator cars from the Amerl can Car and Foundry Company and the Great Northern has ordered an additional 000 automobile cars from the Haskell and Barker Car Company. The New Haven Railroad lines have ordered fifteen consolidation locomotives from the American Locomotive Company. New Inquiries for locomotives include an increase of from forty to seventy-five required by the Pere Marquette. The contract for the construction of the Pulitzer : School of Journalism has been secured by the George A. Fuller Company. Many Rail Ordera. . Earnings of steel companies for the first half year will be much better than was supposed"' two or three months ago, as the current quarter will bring In better profits than the first and will bring up the average for the first half. The Steel Corporation will not profit as much by the improvement In prices In prpprtlon s will the smaller companies, which will be able to fill considerable of their business booked In the first quarter this three months. The Steel Corporation will put up most of its energy toward filling orders booked during the last three months of 1911, when prices were lower than in the first quarter. The Republic Iron and Steel Company, for Instance, is now filling some of It January and February bookings and It will probably be In a position to resume its preferred dividends. . They were passed in the first quarter on the assumption that earnings would only aggregate one per cent, this quarter, but it is probable that they will be close to two per cent., which will make the earnings for the first half year ti per cent., or at the rate of 5 per cent, a year. First quarter earnings i were only about one-half of one per cent- The Bethlehem Steel Corporation will show over five per cent, earned during the first half year, although the Lackawanna Steel Company will not be In much better shape for the half year than for the last half of 1911, as there haa not been much demand for bessemer, but other companies have noted an Improvement in earnings which has steadily Increased ein?e the current quarter started. , Rail orders pending call for very large tonnages, and while the larger inquiries call for about 200,000 tons there are also a great number of small orders before the market which make a good total, when added total rail orders pending call for at least 350,000 tons. The Harrlman lines will need from 75,000 to 100,000 tons of rails for extensions, the Missouri Pacific la before the market for an additional 25,000 tons, the Illinois Central has Inquired for 25,000 tons and the Wabash for 20,000 tons.
