Mr.. Chas d. Hayt, the nominee of the

War Department officials have no official
or unofficial Information that any agent of
the Spanish government is inspecting the
coast defenses near Charleston or In Flor

rigid rules as to inspection Of coast de-

Lieutenant Sobral. the naval attache of

name with this alleged inspection He is
said to have been studying the channels
of Florida points
So long as he confines his inspections to
what can be seen by any ordinary visitor
no complaint would be made and no at
tention paid, but If he or anybody else
went any further than this in any way,
there would be sudden stop. Lieutenant
Sobral would be invited to leave the coun-

Without Significance.
1t is authoritatively said there is no sig
niicance in the return of General Lee to
this country. Assistant Secretary Day.
who has returned to his Office from his
vacation, says that Gen. Lee applied for
thirty days leave of absence. and this was
granted. There was nothing in the appli-
cation intimating that Gen. Lee desired to
be relieved Of his duties. So far as is how
known Gen. Lee will return to Havana
when his leave has expired If there is
any change in this program 1t will be at
the instance of the President, when he re-
turns. He may decide. to appoint ex-Rep-
resentative Aldrich consul general to
Havana. If he does this Gen Lee will. of
course remain in this country. Vice Con-
sui Springer will be in charge during the
absence of the consul general
Despite Official statements there is a
general belief in III official circles that mat
tiers win shape themselves SO that Gen.
Lee will not return The work under him
is in good shape and it will not be neces-
sary that he or a successor shall be in
Havana within thirty days.

The Day In Europe.
The LIST of May. in Europe is usually set
apart as the time for the discussion of

regarded there as Labor day. In the Unit

Restoration of Rights.

.'Out of the multiplying and menacing
labor difficulties of our time there is but
one way to escape. and that is by the res
toration to all men of their natural and
inaIienable rights to the use. upon equal
terms of the element on which and from,
which all men must live-the land. II
there were a brisk demand for labor, there
would be no surplus of laborers. anxious for
work upon any terms, upon which en-
ployers could draw. That there is not
such demand for labor Is due simply TO
the fact that iaborers are prevented by the
monopoly of natural opportunities from en-
ployiDg themselves. Here Is the point on
" hich the efforts of labor should be con-
centrated. The restoration of these op-
portunitieS can easily be obtained by the
ballot. In the ballot workingmen have In
their hands the power of SO adjusting taxes
as TO make the dogs In the manager let go
their hold When this Is done there Will
be no necessity for strikes, and COMPETE

secure to him the full reward of his toll

have been awarded the contract to
construct number of new buildings
for the government south Of the White
river, on the Rosebud reservation.
