MIR. ii. II. HANNAs PLANK.
An Unfortunate Phraseology Has
Aroused Much Opposition.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
PHILADELPHIA, June 17.--H III. Han
ma, who was chairman of the Sound-money
League in 1896. has submitted the follow
ing plank for insertion In the Republican
platform:
The employment OF the people Is the
contentment of the people. The greatest
benefaction to man is the opportunity for
labor. Our best hope for continuous pros
perity lies In winning the worlds markets
for the products of the American farm and
factory.
Low interest rates are potent factors In
securing this result. The wise financial
legislation already enacted by the Repub-
lican party contributes 10 this end. Hav-
ing secured stability in our currency. we
now favor additional monetary legislation
to equalize and better the rates of interest
by providing a flexible and sufficient me-
dunn of exchange for the benefit of the
borrower well as the lender of money.
In order that American commerce may be
enlarged and that labor may be assured of
steady remunerative employment"
1t is the last paragraph which has caused
the row. AS one member OF the national
committee put 1t, what on earth does he
mean by flexible and sufficient We are
on a solid basis-are on a gold basis We
won the election of 1896 on that ISSUE and
we certainly do not intend now in any way
to recede from our position in 1900. Yet
those words seem to me to imply neither
more nor less than a promise or premise
that we will reopen the whole question and
take up silver again. Without flexible and
sufficient the plank is harmless enough,
but, as told Mr.. Hanna this morning. IL II
went in In its present form 1t would be
bounced upon at once and we would be as
sailed from the Atlantic to the Pacific as
trying to run in silver under cover of the
phrase. 1t is an extraordinary plank for
sound-money man to father, but there is
not much danger of its being incorporated
into the platform in it's present FORM

Mr., Roberts, of Utah, of
whom much has been said
and written lately, will not
be allowed a seat in cong
ress. The manner in which
his case was finally dismissed
is being discussed very much
by prominent men at this
time. Roberts was excluded
from the body without hav-
ing been allowed to take his
seat, and many of those COM
petent to know say there is
no law or precedent by which
congress can exclude a mem
Der, and that Roberts, hav-
ing presented a certificate of
election from his state, was
entitled to his seat, and after
being seated he could have
been expelled for reasons
we'll known to the public.
1t is contended that the eX-
clusion of one who has beer
duly elected and who pc.
sesses all the constitutional
qualifications of a congress
man by a majority vote is
fixing a dangerous precedent,
one that could result in the
unseating of many unobject-
ionable members. . ..
