In the United States 100000 feet
of pine lumber are used every year for
matches. or the equivalent of the
product Of 100 acres Of good virgin
forest. About 2O.o0O,O 600 cross ties
are now laid on American railroads.
ana gO.OOO0OO new ties are required
annually for renewals. The amount
Of timber used every year for ties
alone is equivalent to 5000, 900 feet of
lumber. There ATE now standingl
100000 telegraph poles. The aver.I
nge life Of telegraph pole is about
ten years, SO that nearly $4,000 newI
poles are required every year for rel
newals. These figures do not include
telephone poles and the poles required
on new railway lines. The total IN.
nual consumption Of timber for ttsSl
and poles is equivalent to the amount
of timber grown on 100 900 acres of

RACE. oxoz POOR LAD.

CLEVELAND. O.. Jan. 00.-(Spl.)
-Myron T.EIerrick, who has just for
mally entered the lists as candidate
for the Republican nomination for
governor of Ohio. is man whose
life story Is interesting.
He was born. 40 years ago, on q
little northern Ohio farm. His par
ents, Massachusetts, stock, were able
to help him enough so that, with his
own efforts added, he made his way
through college. Then he studied law
and was admitted to the bar, which
brought him in touch with financial
institutions and the old bankers
soon began to take notice Of the
poor young lawyer and his views
upon money matters. After eight
years of law practice came the OPP
portunity the young man craved- He
was offered the secretaryship Of the
Society for Savings, the largest it-
stitution Of its kind in the west. The
bank is simply mutual savings So
ciety, operating under a very old and
liberal charter. and PATTERNED after
the primitive New England savings
societies.
Eight years Of secretaryship
brought Herrich the presidency of
the bank with practical control of
the s40.00o.000 savings of it's $4,000
depositors. together with a $4,000. 900
surplus.
Meantime. he had organized ma
tional banks, trust companies, was
recognizer of steam railroads, a
trolley magnate and. incidentally. he
acquired fortune of seven. and per-
haps eight figures. Though a saw
ings-bank man" he had served as
vice president and. finally, president
of the American Bankers associa-
ton, and upon his retirement from
that office a few months ago. he was
elected to the presidency of the
American Savings Banks assocfa-
ton. He has also won recognition
in the inner financial circles in New
York. where he largely controls one
big trust company.
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1903-01-29

Herrich became q crony Of the
late President Mckinley. long before
Mckinley was presidential timber.
The two men were chums and the
bankers genius was exercised In
Vulnerable times to keep his friends
financial craft of the rocks, for Nc
Kihley knew little and cared less,
about money matters. Colonel Her
rick declined to go into McKinley's
cabinet, and twice declined ambas-
sadorships, but he was ever a MEM
Der of President McKinley's 'kitch-
en- cabinet" and was as close as
any man in the country to the inner
workings Of the administration.
Upon the earnest solicitation of
Mckinley, Herrick, a dozen years
ago. began to take part in politics.
He had been a member of the Re-
publican national committee and of
the advisory committee, and for
years has always had a place on the
resolutions committee of each state
convention.
between Colonel Herrick and Sem
ator Hanna there has been a feeling
more of esteem and mutual respect
than of friendship. The banker in
politics declines to bow to the i'm
perious sway of the Senator. He
does not oppose that sway, but
merely avoids having to submit per-
sonally to It, and he Is one of the
few party associates to whom the
senator couches his wishes as re-
quests rather than as commands.
Herrich will probably be opposed
by Congressman Chas. Dick. of Ak
ron. Senator Hanna's chief political
lieutenant. and by half a dozen less
conspicuous candidates, and the race
for the next five months will be in
teresting.
1t may result in putting Senator
Hanna in an ugly hole for he is
candidate for reelection as senator.
and he may be forced to show his
hand openly, either for Dick or Her.
rick. and thus invite the opposition
of the other side.
Colonel Herrick has one son, now
in Harvard.
