.r i,i's ! treasury portfolio will
in all probability be
offered to Charles Gates Dawes of Chi
cago. Mr.. Dawes has already served
a valuable apprenticeship in national
financial life, having been comptroller
OF the currency In 1897. when Lyman
j. Gage. also of Chicago, was secretary
of the treasury. He held this RESPONSE
bic position until October, 1901. when
he resigned to become a candidate for
the United States senate from Illinois,
q distinction which he failed TO obtain.
At the time of his appointment as
comptroller of the currency it was con-
sidered that the west had received an
especial compliment. This was partly
on account of the fact that both secre-
tary and comptroller were chosen from
the same western city, but chiefly be-
cause 1t was q public recognition by the
president of the remarkable ability OF
Mr.. Dawes. which was we'll known III
the western states. He had not. like
lIr Gage, been prominent for years in
financial circles. but during the last
Mckinley campaign he had developed
qualities both as writer and as an
organizer that forced themselves on the
attention of the party managers, and ne
was among the earliest workers in the
Republican cause to receive an invita-
fion to call on the president. He was
the executive head of the Mckinley
campaign in Illinois, his home being al
Evanston, one of the suburbs of Chi
cago.
Mr.. Dawes represented Illinois on tn,
national executive committee and wa.
