NO LABOR PARTY HERE

President Green Of the American
Federation of Labor, at Toronto, re-
Gently stated once again that the la
boring men of the United States have
no intention of organizing labor
party. In so speaking there can be
little doubt that he expresses the SEN
timent of practically the entire labor
movement in America. 1t is true that
the Labor Party in Great Britain has
won great success, but it is equally
true that this English Labor Party
in recent years has drawn not only
from the ranks of the laboring men
themselves, but from the Socialists
and Liberals, and perhaps, in some
instances, from the Conservative Par
ty itself, so that it is becoming less a
purely labor party.
But in any event conditions in the
United States are somewhat different
than in Great Britain Glass lines are
not so clearly drawn in America. We
here that prevails in Europe. The av-
erage working man looks upon himself
first not as a laborer but as an Ameri-
can citizen who can easily, if his intel
ligence, perseverance and integrity
warrant it, raise himself to the place
where he will be at least part capital
isl and part worker. On the other
hand, there is not the class conscious
ness among the business and profess
sional men in America either.
As a result, our two great political
parties are made up of men and Wo-
men in every walk Of life. There are
ministers, teachers, doctors, lawyers,
bankers, business men and laborers IN
the Republican party, and the same
classes are to be found in the Demo-
cratic party. The situation is a very
satisfactory one because it has en-
abled the two parties to fight their
campaigns on broad issues without the
paving of too much attention to inter
nal classifcations and divisions of po-
litical belief.
We believe in America that the
broad party system is much superior
to the bloc system in vogue in CONT
mental Europe, and the average think
ing American hopes that we can keep
the two party systems in vogue. Ger
tainly the statement of President
Green of the Federation of Labor is
timely and to the point. American la
Dor has Jared well without an official
labor party and there is no reason to
think that it will not continue to do
so.

VANISHING CURRENCY

The public became accustomed to
the new, small bills quickly. There is
still a little annoyance when a tistful
of bills proves to contain both old and
new, because the two don't fold to-
gether very neatly. That unpleasant
ness is passing more swiftly than is
realized.
1t is announced from Washington
that the old style currency is being de-
stroyed at the rate or six or seven tons
a day. More than 1870 tons are stored
in the strong boxes of the Treasury
Department, while a great macerator
and an incinerator, working at top
speed, are unable to keep up with the
task.
Alas. Before all the old currency
is taken out Of circulation, the first
crop of new bills will be grimy and
worn enough to be ready for destruc-
ton, too. "Filthy lucre" in these days
of grease and dirt has a new signiti-
canoe.

NATIONAL AFFAIRS
As Seen at the National Capital by
Frank p. Litschert.

When some political historian starts
few years hence to set down the
story of the present era he will doubt
less call it the period of the decline
and fall of party regularity. Certainly
this deterioration of party regularity
is the outstanding development of this
generation. There are perhaps sew
eral causes for it. Most political stu
dents attribute it's inception to the
wave of primary election enthusiasm.
With the passing of the political con-
vention, party responsibility began to
fade. Candidates went out on the
stump to win preliminary support for
their cause and primary campaigns
often degenerated into mere contests
of political personalities, in which at

 Commander, that in view of the

AS you know, there Iare five cutters of the type of the Tahoe and the Chelan already completed and assigned to duty and three more of the same type and two smaller, under construc- tion. This will give the coast guard a fine fleet, and would think 1t quite proper that one of the new vessels be stationed at Seward, in Rsurrection Bay, undoubtedly the finest harbor on the Pacific coast.
