fir put Wont.
NEW YORK, Dec. 26. (Special Tele
gram.) Tho Evening Post tonight prlnti
the following editorial:
President Roodovelt has again shown
thnt ho had a clear conception of a partial
lar typo of man for head of tho Treasury
department when ho set out to find n sue
cessor for Secretnry Gage. Ho wanted a
man who knows enough nbnut the business
of banking to understand tho routlno busi-
ness of nntlonnl financed aa they develop
nnd who haB shown thnt he enn bo trusted
to deal wisely with larger Usues as they
arise; a mnn who has demonstrated that
he possesses tho administrative and execu-
tlvo ability necessary for tho successful
conduct of this great department; n man
whoso steadiness nnd senso would reassure
tho financiers and yet whoso sympathies
with tho peoplo would romovo him from
nnv noselhlu lmnutatlon of 'representing
Wall street' In short, a man who must bo
considered bv metropolitan bankers n safo
bond of tho treasury without being sub-
pocted by the masses of tho slightest favor
itlsm townrd any class
'-'.Mr. Roosevelt found theeo qualities ex
omplincd In Governor Crnno of Massachu
notts, who In tho brlof spneo of one year
has won nntlonnl recognition by tho nbll-
Ity, independence and devotion to tho pub
lie Interests which ho hnsvRhown an execu
tive of tho Bny State. Whon Governor
Crnno felt compolled to decline, tho presl
dent turned to tho middle west and sought
a man who In two tcrnm ns governor of
Iowa has displayed similar traits nnd woh
llko recognition throughout tho country,
"Leslie M. Shnw came to tho front in his
Btato during the presidential campaign of
18D6. While many republicans wero In
clloed to 'wnbhlo' on tho financial Issuo and
to dally with 'bimetallism,' he Insisted upon

prominence that ho becamo tho candidate
of his party for the governorship a year
lator.
"No sooner was ho 'Installed in the cap-
Itol than ho exerted his Influence to se
curo reforms in tho government of tho state
nna tIl0 nrBt Eesslon of tho legislature un-
' . . . .
aer his leadership did uch good work that
lt commanded tho endorsement of oven
democratic, critics. Tho most Important
tmamrn enncted was tho Board of Control I
law. a law which substituted for the many
separate Doaics ot trustees ami coinuim
slonors that had previously managed the
various penal and charitable Institution!,
often In a lax ami wastoful manner, one
board of three members, who were to glvn
all of tholr tlmo to tho work and who could
be hold responsible for everything, The
Immedlnto result was a great saving In
tnonoy and a large gain in efficiency, and
each succeeding year has further-vindicated
the ,wlHdom of tho chunge. This reform
Illustrates .the bent of tho governor's mind
nnd Is a fair exnmn o of his work as a state
pXecutve. '
"Governor Shaw has grown In his omce
nnd has steadily Impressed himself upon the
nation. He was a great tigure at tho Indt-
annpolls conference for the promotion of
currency reform four y.earp ago and his
ipeech on that occasion was one ot the
ablest exponents of sound doctrfho that the
long controversy over tire gold standard
developed.
"He Is the sort of man who masters fun
damental principles nnd then knows how-
to sot them forth In a way to convlnco ami
Imprcsa people who nro not students of
financial problems. A secretary of this
class can bo trusted, not only to go right
himself, but also to know how to keep In
touch with the country as he advances.
"Tho nation Is now, for tho first time, to
have a secretary of the treasury who lives
In n country town In tho western part of
n great agricultural state which lies beyond
tho Mississippi river. We am glad that tho
new head of the department enrao from
such nn environment in tho heart of the
country, it Is not true, as New Yorkors
nro apt to think, that only a great flnanclor
from New York or Chicago or sorao largo
city Is qualified for tho place. Wo have
great respect for tho country banker who
has carefully studied broad questions nnd
worked out sound conclusions nnd who
often uuderstnnds far bettor than tho city
bred man the feelings of tho peoplo nnd
tho best way of commanding their approval.
"Tho nation Is to be congratulated that
a president may look to n small town like
Dalton, In Massachusetts, with only 3,011
, honor g(ch cxcoent representatives of
American manhood ns tho two unprotendlng
ovcrnorfl whom ,10 ,las nvted to enter

largo oil companies which are operating
extensively In the llcnumont fields. It wns

quainted with Governor Shaw's holdings
nround Bonumont thnt. the oil discovery
tins brought him a fortune of not less than
$800,000. He had the good fortune to be In
on tho ground floor so, far as owning pros
pective oil lands in that district was con-
