Il few weeks ago the largest contract

A few weeks ago the largest contract
ever made for steel was closed between
the Pressed Steel Car company and the
Carnegie Steel company. The amount
was s150, 1000, 900. calling for 1000 tons
of steel plates day for the next ten
years, or 3,SO0,OO0 tons in all. The iron
and steel boom has gone far beyond
all previous records. No better illus
tration could be found for the won
derful increase in this great industry
than the fact that fifty years ago the
consumption of pig iron was equiva-
lent to 100 tons per head OF population.
while now 1t is over 400, and is growing
all the time. 1t was pointed out years
ago that the price of pig iron largely
regulated the country's prosperity, and
Mr.. G. H Hull has recently shown in
an article that the periods Of pig iron
and good times generally come at in
tervals Of about ten years. The last
one was 1889, and the present year is
keeping up the record.

ing been born in this state
thirty.eight years ago, He
was educated in the common
schools of his county, and at
the state university at Fay
etteville. In 1894 he was
elected to the legislature.
He was reelected in 1896

always been a leader in every
body in which he has served.
Naturally aggressive, full of

tains his position with
speeches that bristle with ar

of the ready speakers in a
body that contains many
good takers, and while a
rapid talker he is equally a
fast and original thinker, and
with never a loss for words,
and not the least trace of ex'
citement. No matter how
warm the controversy, he is
a most formidable debater.
Tom Herrn is a cool and
skillful diplomat and soon
discovers the weak places in
his adversary's armor and
aims his shafts at those
points. Combined with this
he is a tactician Of the rarest
adroitness, and, possessing a
knowledge of parliamentary
practice far above the ordi-
nary legislator, 1t is a rich
treat to see him, by a motion
made at the right time, place
his opponents hors de COM
bat, while they are amazed
at the sublime audacity of
the mau. Mr.. Herrn is
