SOME mention has been made of Con-
gresham Morrison in connection with
the secretaryship of the treasury which
will soon be made vacant by the retire.
ment Of Mr.. Manning. The reason as
signed for the presidents consideration
of Mr.. Morrson's name, is that he is the
originator and sponsor of the fiscal poll
cy which the house of representatives so
emphatically endorsed last week. 1t has
long been considered that the govern
ment's financial affairs were the especial
charge of the lower house of congress,
the direct representative of the people
1t would seem to be especially appropri-
ate, therefore, that the leader of
the house should direct the coun>
try's fiscal policy We should thus
have nearer approach to representative
government, so far as-the vast interests
OF the treasury departments are concerned
that we have ever had before In addi-
ton to this consideration, on which the
president is said to be seriously rejecting
Mr.. Morrison possesses many persona
qualities which would fit him for this i'm.
portaut post. He is a close student, 6
deep thinker on economic subjects, anC
emphatically a safe man. He is not the
man who, as secretary of the treasury ant
the guardian of its vast interests could
be induced to experiment with any hare
Drained scheme of finance. The capital-
istic and the productive classes could
with equal safety rely upon his sound
j Judgment.
