Gold.

United States Minister Powell has trans
mitted to the State Department from Port
au Prince. Haiti. the text of law now be-
fore the chambers, which proposes to pay
the bonds and interest of the sinking fund
as they fall due In gold. instead of in paper,
as heretofore. By this law. says the min
lister. while the value of the bond is reduced,
its intrinsic value Is increased on account
Of the heavy rates Of exchange for the past
three years. These bonds are to be ex-
changed at the rate of 6622s per cent of their
value.
Minister Powell had previously informed
the department that Haiti had adopted the
United States gold dollar as a unit of value
The nominal basis of currency operations
for. years has been United States gold. al
though that coin has not been In circulation,
paper or silver gourdes being used An eff
fort Is being made to bring the national cur
Tency to par.

cumstAnces these III members OF con-
gress Will always constitute an over
whelming majority OF the Democratic
members. They can absolutely dominate
the Democratic caucus. and commit the
Democratic party in congress to any line
OF policy. Yet Of these Ill members. at
least 100 are absolutely independent of the
labor vote. The labor vote of the South
is suppressed. or disregarded. The men
who nominate and elect Democratic men,
bers Of congress in the Southern states.
are not the men who work with their

necessary to return Democratic men,
Der of congress in the typical Southern
district. only an insignificant proportion
Is cast by men who labor with their
hands
These Democratic members Of congress
have no labor constituency to be offended
by any attitude which they may assume
on any question affecting the interests
OF labor. They could afford to vote. as
they did, for free trade measure which
would throw thousands of Northern work
ingmen cut of employment, without in
juring their own chances OF election. On
the other hand, the constituencies which
they represent have decided interest in
having an abundant supply OF cheap and
docile labor or the kind which takes no In
terest In politics.
As an. illustration of the attitude OF
Southern Democrats on the labor ques-
ton, II may be noted that the labor COM
mission made its report at the last ses-
sion OF congress recommending national
eight-hour day. Every single Southern
Democratic member Of that commission
signed the minority report, protesting
against any such legislation.
Yet the Democratic politicians in this
particular section insist that a Democratic
congress. the majority of the members OF
which are Representatives OF Southern con-
stituencies. interesting IN having cheap
labor. is more to be relied upon in the
matter OF dealing with the immigration OF
cheap labor from Europe or from Asia
than Republican congress. the members
of which owe their political preferment to
the votes of American worxingmen. Can
any intelligent man believe such non
sense?

the voter on hts practical side. Here Is
a material condition in the United States
that has come into existence by the APP
plication TO legislation and administration
OF Republican principles. II a man wants
good wages. IL he viii go through the
stress and misery of strike to insist
upon them. why should he not support
the party that has made it possible for
him to get good wages and TO keep them?
The saving grace of sound common sense
is in every word that Senator Hanna
says. The people see that this man, so
vilely accused. stands up before the ma
ton and challenges the opposition TO
bring home one charge against him as a
private citizen or public servant There
is no answer; and the manner OF hts re-
ception everywhere shows what the
country thinks of him.
The truth Is that Democrats hate Sem
ator Hanna with a bitter hatred be-
cause hts practical skill as an organizer
is at the service of the Republican party.
and they cannot offset II with anything
that would make the public distrust him
They have therefore sought to discredit
him by every artitice that maiignity and
mendacity could suggest They have
overreached themselves by bringing to
the aid Of the Republican cause an ad-
vocate on the platform who shows him
self as effective there as he is In coun-
sci. The cartoons and the lampoons may
as we'll be laid away. Abuse OF Senator
Hanna henceforth win only be adding so
much more 10 the political capital OF the
Republican party.
