SEN. SMITH ALSO BETTER
(American News ScrviCe)

Washington, Feb. 22-The condi-
ton of Senator Tillman of South Car
DINA, who was stricken with paraly-
sis last Thursday shows steady i'm
provement This morning his physi-
clan announced that paralysis is slow
~ disappearing and the patient has
recovered his speech in a measure,
and also other faculties. and is slowly
gaining strength. DR.. Pickford, the
chief attending physician. said that it
cannot yet be determined whether or
not the senator will fully recover. A
partial recovery, however, unless un-
favorable symptoms develop within
the next three days, seems to now be
assured, though it is probable Senator
Tillman may remain a partial invalid
for the remainder of his life.

ROOSEVELT IS KEY
TO THE SITUATION
This Decision Is Reached by
Leaders of the Tape
worm Club"
TO PRESENT SOLID FRONT
TO DEMOCRACY WITH 7. r. AND
GOVERNOR HUGHES IN THE
FORE RANKS, THE coNFEREES
ARE NOW DECIDED.

New York. Feb. IA Washington
dispatch to the Herald is as follows:
One thing was very evident at the
dinner of the Tape Worm Club at the
home of Vice President Sherman last
night Ii was that the New York po-
litical leaders gathered there firmly
believe that. whoever is nominated by
the Republican party to succeed Cover
nor Charles +. Hughes will have the
prominent gentlemen. One of these
gentlemen is Goveror Hughes and the
other is Theodore Roosevelt.
The Tape Worm club was formed in
Washington good many years ago.
1t had its origin in a committee room
of the House of Representatives, where
members of the New York delegation
used to gather each day at noon To eat
lunch. Its meetings are theoretically
purely social. There has never been
one yet however at which politics was
not the chief topic OF after-dinner con-
versation.
Among Those Present.
The diners last night at the Vice
Presidents home were, besides Mr.
Sherman, Messrs. Frank S. Black and
B. B. Odell, Jr.. and one time governor
Licius \. Littauer, w. T. Foote, vii
liam Barnes. Jr.: c. G. Bennett. secre
tary of the senate: Judge l. F. Footc
Representative George \. Southwict
and Representative John w. Dwight
the Republican whip of the house.
Republican success in the campaign
of next fall was discussed from everl
angle and the situation at Albany wa!
especially reviewed. Everybod,
| agreed that all members should also b.
members of the Point With Prid
Club and not of the View With Alarm
| Club That it was time for the wises
men in the party to get their heads 10
gether and devise a plan of action tina
would fit difficulties, was also prett.
well agreed.
| Look to Roosevelt.
! Mr.. RoOsevelt's name was mention
ed most frequently. 1t is pretty SAT
guess that no important move is goini
to be made by the New York Republi
cans until he gets back and they hav
a chance to consult with him.
Several of the men at Mr.. Sherman
house emphatically stated that MI
Roosevelt and no other was the key I
the situation. With him and Cover
nor Hughes in the front rank. they be
lieve the party would present soil
front to the democracy that could no
be pierced.
One plan advanced was that MI
Roosevelt be chosen temporary chair
man of the convention that nominate
the next republican candidate for gov
ernor and that Goveror Hughes b
made the permanent chairman.
Representative Edward B. Vreelant
of Salamanca. who is chairman of tn
Committee on Banking and Currenc
of the House, was mentioned mos
prominently as the successor of Time
thy Woodruff as chairman of the re
publican state executive committee.

MONETARY COMMISSION ISSUES
A STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL
FACTS WHICH ARE INTEREST
ING TO PUBLIC.

Washington. Feb. 22.-One of the in
teresting phases of the report just
made public by the national monetary
commission on The Use of Credit In
States" by Dr. David Kinley of the
University of Illinois. is the analysis
of the employment of checks and SINH
lar instruments of credit by farmers
and laborers.
The deposits in national banks by
retail dealers on selected date. March
Is, 1909, showed that outside of re-
serve cities under the national banking
25J,3OS. of which $24.929, $40, or 6S.1
per cent, was in checks.
An examination of retail deposits in
five agricultural states. leaving out
cities of more than 25.O0O inhabitants,
indicated that checks are used more
generally by farmers in making their
payments than sometimes is supposed.
investigations in Five States.
The five states selected were Illinois
Iowa. Kansas. Nebraska and Texas
Out of total retail deposits in these
states amounting to S4S94.1S1. the pro-
portion of checks was 12.S per cent;
currency, 21.S per cent and specie d.
per cent.
The proportion in each state in the
order of the highest ratio of checks was
Nebraska, 1S.J per cent: Iowa. IJ.2 pei
cent: Kansas, IA per cent: Illinois
7O.J per cent: and Texas. $50 per cent
Other states, like North Dakota and
South Dakota. in which there are nc
large cities, show similar condition
of affairs. 1t is declared by DR.. Kin
ley that there has been a great change
in this respect since the hard times OF
1S9p-1S& Farmers who then had nc
surplus now have bank accounts, anc
there has been a notable increase il
deposit banking and therefore in pay
ments by means of checks.
Among wage earners the proportion
of checks received and paid out is in
fluenced in a considerable degree b,
the character of the pay rolls of large
| industrial establishments.
Clerks Large Users Of Checks.
| Discussing the general Significance
of these figures, the following conclu
sions are drawn by DR. kinley:
The common belief is that wage
earners do not use checks in making
payments to any extent worth men
tionins. This is probably true If by
wage earners is meant the manual la
borers. Persons in clerical positions
with no larger income than many man
ual laborers. are users of checks to &
degree as large proportionately as
wealthy people.
The manual laborers is in another
class in this respect. He usually i:
paid by the week, or, at any rate, by
the month. Some states. indeed, now
| require weekly payments. In so fai
as they do. the amount which eacf
| person receives is smaller than if the
wage period were longer. The wage:
received, therefore. are usually too
small TO be the basis of d bank &C
count. The banks, it is urged. do no
want such accounts. This statement
| however, must be taken with man!
grains of allowance. especially in the
smaller places. Many banks in small
| places are glad to get all accounts
| however small

He Objects to Four Postmast-
er Appointments of
Beverage.
WANTS HIS MEN RETAINED
AND GOES TO SENATE POSTAL
COMMITTEE WITH A PROTEST
AGAINST THE MEN CHOSEN BY
THE SENATOR.

Washington, Feb. 22.-Former Rep
resentative Watson, in the hope of be-
ing able to hold some of his personal
friends in Indiana post offices. has
asked the senate committee on post
offices and post roads to prevent the
confirmation of the following post Of
flee nominations made by Senator
Beveridge:
Terre Haute-Thatcher Parker.
Recommendation Arnett.
Princeton--Henry Tichenor,
Rockport-Frank Clearinghouse.
These are the only Indiana post of
flee nominations now in controversy,
no objections being advanced, to the
confirmation of the other pending
nominations The present postmast-
ers at these places, whose retention
Mr.. Watson is urging, are as follows:
Terre Haute--Samuel Gray.
Kokomo--Edsar A. Simmons.
Princeton-A. p. Twinham.
Rockport-John Thrown.
No Action Expected.
tions made to the confirmation of Par
ker Arnett. Tichenor and CARING
house will be sufficient to prevent
favorable action.
Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania is
chairman of the committee on post Of
fees and post roads. Although he is
reactionary, he also is a personal
friend of Senator Beverdge. and the
two are often companions on long
walks.
Senator Penrose said that whatever
comes before his committee relative
to post office combinations is execu-
tive business and he can not talk
about it, These nominations have
been reported favorably out Of COM
mittee to the senate, and it would be
necessary, If the committee wishes to
kill the nominations, to withdraw
them from the senate, which is not a.
all likely.
Taft Stands by Beveridee.
1t is learned that the objections to
these nominations We're first urged by
Mr.. Watson before Postmaster Gener-
al Hitchcock and later carried to the
Wnlte mouse, Dut the president al
hered to his determination to give
Senator Beveridge the Indiana patron
age, and he has made no exceptions
to this rule.
1t was contended that the incum-
bent postmasters have all made good
officials, that they were loyal Taft
men and worked hard as they could
for Mr.. Taft consistent with the duties
Of their offices. 1t is asserted by Mr.
Watson's friends that Mr.. Hitchcock
went to extreme lengths in impress
ing upon the president that there
should be changes in these four Off
ces, even to the extent of unjustly re
flecting upon the official records OF
the incumbents.
Former Senator Hemenway had q
conference with the president yester
day. but whether it bore on Indiana
matters could not be learned. 1t is
ascertained that Mr.. Watson first sug
gested to the president the advisable
ity of keeping in office a number Of
republican postmasters. The origina
list it is said. included twenty-five
names Several of those on his Slate
have since secured reappointmen
through Senator Beveridge.

Chicago. Sept 2s-The contention
that the railroad among competing

the plea for higher rates by western

The opinion was expressed by Wit
ness G. g. May Of New York. public
accountant Mr.. May said the amount
the shipper would bear rather than
lose the service was his limitation OF
what a carrier should take from the
shipper based on the value OF the serv-
ice
"If a rate is fixed asked Commits
sioner Clark, that viii pay a fair re-
turn to the one OF three roads in aC-
tive competition. which has the lar
gest bona fide investment. the com
mission has done its duty in your
opiniOn2-
Yes" replied Mr.. May. 81 think
the road with the highest investment
should have the opportunity 60 earn
fair return. no matter how much
other roads may earn"
Then you believe the government
should guarantee n fair return on poor
Investments or bad management" con
tinued the commissioner.
II do not think the return should be
guaranteed by the government"

IDEAL WOMAN IS
PRETTY AND DUMB
EngIishman Says Perfect Wife
Is Not Gifted With Con-
VerSational Powers.

London. Sept 2s.-Letters portray
ing the qualities OF an ideal woman
are pouring in fast to a local paper
which is offering a prize for the best
essay on the subject.
That beauty is by no means an es-
sential quality still continues the key
note Of the majority Of the letters.
Some writer's. in fact. would even OBJ
Ject TO loveliness OF feature in their
ideal woman. Thus one man writes.
I would not want a beauty for my
Ideal woman. but n good looking
thoughtful. kind and cheerful wom-
anly woman
or again:
Good looks count for nothing
they are only the wrapper
MY ideal woman is plain. healthy
and well hammered.
She need not necessarily be lovely,
or have a form resembling a figure s,
and many other signs Of outward
beauty"
A hearty welcome for the weary
toiler' on his return from the days
work is another very general senti-
ment
''She must be the first to meet her
husband when he returns from bust
ness ana must greet MIN with a smile
and kind word; and if he has been
worried during the day. she must help
him TO think out some plan that all
may be put right"
Against the qualities essential in an
ideal woman, the following "musts''
are interesting.
She must not wear high heels.
She must have graceful feet.
She mus not always expect to have
her own way.
She must have all lights out at 1890
p. m.
She must be versatile-she must.
with equal facility and ambition. play
the piano and WELD the frying pan.
on the whole. so far. writer's have
expressed their opinions plainly and
tersely. But from the point OF view
Of terseness one opinion stands start
lingly alone. The author. IL is to be
feared, is n cynic OF the most deter
mined order. The ideal woman" he
says. "is beautiful and dumb"
