This protest is against the classification for duty of 1,000 barrels of cement imported by Messrs. J. G.

trinsic value to the fixed and standard conven- tional value, that any como made in part of silver sustains to a gold standard is not determined by the fineness of the constituents of the coin, but by the intrinsic value of the silver therein contained. It is of no importance whether a coin is made of goo/1,000 of silver and is of a certain small size, or whether it contains 700/1,000 of silver, but is enough larger, so that the amount of silver within the coit remains the same. The theory that the value of a silver coin as a circulating medium depends upon the amount of silver in it, has long since been totally exploded in countries where the gold standard prevails, and the silver coin has a fixed relation to the standard unit of guld, irrespective of the mar ket price of silver. Any other theory would Bake the coinage depend upon the fluctuat

In support of this claim, Messrs. I. G. White and Company enclaied with a letter dated August 4th, 1906, extracts from their contract' with the United States navy, for the construe- tion of a coal handling plant at Olongapo in the construction of which this cement is in- tended to be used.

- SANTO DOMINGO,

After his discovery of Santo Domingo in 1491. Columbus wrote to his royal patron: "I swear to your Majesties there is not in the world a better nation nor

a better land." Somehow, this idea seems to have persisted until the present tiee. In his work on Sinto Domingo and flayil, published in 1873 Sainuet Hazard says: "frobably no spot on carth, take it altogether and looking at it in its natural sxpects, can be found miste lovely; and it is safe to say, probably no extent of territory the world over contains within itself, under proper auspices so many elements of prosperity, worldly success and happiness as the Island of Santo Domingo."
