". L WILSON. Virginia, to that
important position, and the retirement Of
Holman from the craftsmanship Of the APP
preparations. 1t IL not that Wilson has
been appointed, but that Springer has
been dropped. Springer himself does not
understand II, and says 1t is taking him
from a subject that he has studied and
putting him to work on one that he knows
comparatively little of-for he has been
made chairman Of the banking and cur.
rency committee.
A Look ut the Leader.
Wilson IL a gentleman, scholar, and
statesman Of the highest Democratic type,
clean and brainy. To look at him from
the house galleries no one would suspect
him Of being a leader Of men. Inphysique
he is small both in height and in girth.
And he seldom speaks. His face is keen
and intellectual; his features are regular.
His eyes are kind yet sharp. His chin Is
firm like his mouth, which Is concealed
behind a large sandy and gray moustache.
His movements are quick and precise. His
dress is neat and quiet. His hands and
feet arc small and shapely. He sits in tho
third section on the left of the speaker,
half way back. When he sits down he
finds a comfortable position, and will re-
tain 1t for a long time. He Is good lis
tener. He prefers to listen, but when he
speaks he always has a good audience.
7 And Holman Ia Left Out.
| But Holman's retirement Is a puzzle to
many, also. Why the watchdog of the
| treasury" should have been deposed from
| the very position where he could most cf-
fectually watch is a question that is not
| yet answered. Besides there is a differ
ence in the compensation given. Springer
gets a highly important position-the head
| Of the banking and currency-while Hol-
mans most important post is, now, chair
man Of the Indian committee. II Is the
superstition that Holman IL satisfied and
prefers a place at his time Of life where
he will not have so much responsibility.
