the Union had been bought by Her
bert Hoover for some of his former
associates, but the development that
Herrick financed the deal and that the
paper now springs his name for the
Presidency causes Republicans to be-
lieve that the paper is the private
property Of the ohIoan.
Naturally the following editorial has
caused Senator Harding. also of Ohio,
who is an asp rant for the Presidency,
to do lot of thinking:
From a source which we regard as
highly reliable the Union has learned
that Myron T. Herrick, former gov
ernor of Ohio. and former Ambassa-
dor to Frnnce. is being quietly groom
ed for the Republican Presidential
nomina ton.
"Herrick is a standpatter, but unlike
the average member of that peculiar
diminishing group. he is amenable tc
change and must be reckoned with al
a power among the farmers. He wal
appointed to the rural life commission
by President Roosevelt, and since thai
