Statesmen are commenting on what
Is referred to m a mistake on the part
of the president in offering the treas-
ury portfolio to Gov. Crane of Massa-
'Uusetta. They say that if he had
thought for a moment be would have
remembered that Murray Crane ia the
man who makes tbe paper on which
the government prints Ils money. He
would have known that Crane could
not do business with himself, and that
If he chose to be Secretary of the treas-
ury he would have to give up bls pa-
^ ^pexmUia, which are the moet profit-
able and perhaps the largest In the
country.
By the way, Murray Crane is likely
yet to bo a member of tbe Roosevelt
ablnet. Ixtdge la trying to arrange to
have Crane succeed Long. As the lat-
ter doea not care to quit Just now, and
j. m the governor to willing to serve out

paper mills would not interfere with

be brought about. ' •
