ALL through the war we Of the North
insisted that the masses or the Southern
people were dragged into rebellion by the
leaders; that there was a majority against
secession at the start. and that If It had
not been for the pernicious heresy Of State
Sovereignty and the consequent convic.
tons Of the Southern people that their
Hrs. allegiance was due to their States.
this majority would hove demonstrated
its power and the war would have been
prevented or speedily brought to a close.
This was true. and while the fact should
deepen our hatred to the doctrine Of seces-
sion and our determination to extirpate it,
at the same time the logical inference is
tina. the Southern people are, less guilty
than il they had held the eme ideas and
made the same estimate Of the guilt Of re-
bellion as ourselves. It is proper and
right that we should take this into account
in all our dealings with the Southern peo-
pie, either in the way of punishment for
the rebellion or the creation Of safeguards
for the future. Just judgment must fall
upon the guilty leaders alone-to punish
the misled masses either by disfranchise-
ment, con6scation or any other Of the Sc
we're measures proposed. would be unjust.

A UNIFORM SYSTEM OF WEIGHTS AND

A UNIFORM SYSTEM OF WEIGHTS AND
MEAsuREs.-The report recently present.
ed to the National House Of Representa-
tives BY Mr.. Kasson, of Iowa, upon the
advantages Of the metncal system OF coins,
weights and measures, as a substitute for
the imperfect system now in use, is attract.
ing fresh attention to this important sub
ject. The House Of Representatives passed
q .permissive" bill, authorizing and legal
izing the use Of the metric system in this
country and directed the Secretary OF the
Treasury to furnish to each State one
Sc. Of Of the standard weights and meas
ures Of the metric system for the use Of
the States" The law is destined to be
followed by one making the metric system
supercede all others. The Constitution
gives Congress full power in the premises
and it is q wonder that it has heretofore
exercised it so sparingly. We have prov
ed the advantages Of the metrical system
by decimalizing our coins, but the vary
ing and incongruous measures OF weight,
cap.ci,y and surface, imported by the
early ~colonists from England, have viz
,ually remained untouched. John Quincy
Adams, BY direction Of the Senate, made
an exhaustive report upon this subject in
1921, after three years laborious research
and warmly advocated the adoption OF the
metric system, which had been adopted
by France in 1892. Congress did nothing
then, however, and we have made little
progress in the matter since.
Mr.. Kasson has been assisted in the
preparation Of his report BY Prof. Norton.
Of Yale College. who was charged with
investigating the subject by the American
Academy Of Sciences. The New York
Chamber Of Commerce heartily approves
Of the recommendations and thanks Mr..
Kasson for making them. The report
favors q plan that a Congress Of Nations
be held to fx q uniformity in coins, as
we'll rs weights and measures. but expects
the same results ultimately, il the United
States, England and France, agree upon a
syssed. L, is well said that If system
Of coins is to undergo change, we can best
make it now. as our coin is withdrawn
from circulation. For the present COM
plex system Of weights aud measures it is
proposed to institute one orderly, simple
and perfectly harmonious, having useful
relations between all its parts.

LINES FOR ST. JOHNS DAY.
BY CHARLES A. SUMNER.

by CHARLES A. SUMNER. n
Another festal days return:
Thrice uttered be the greeting
As round those lights that brightest burn
The Brotherhood are meeting.
No anniversary Of Time
Our Orders records center -
When first she ope'd her gates sublime
And bid the Pilgrim enter.
Who have not passed by Mount Moriah,
Nor learned the sealed Ionic,
May deem the widows son OF Tyre
Possessed no word Masonic. a-.
But let rejected skeptics cry,
Her ancient dates are fiction;
Few will presume to her deny
Johns SANITY benediction.
And, 10! the bond in Art confessed:
When, skilled with square and gavel,
Through Europe's courts, from East toW
The Masters freely travel;
When round Colonge encamped the Graft;
Those wonderful adapters,
Who crowned the simple Doric shaft
With Corinth's beauteous chapters;
When he whose architecture wove
In stone the hymn and psalter,
Upreared the Pantheon far above
Saint Peters gorgeous altar;
When rectitude Of heavenly law,
Once symboled BY the plummet,
Was typifed to heighths Of awe
In Strasbours's piercing summit.
Or when Milan's cathedral choirs
First sang the strains Of Starble-
As burst into a spray Of spires
That soaring wave Of marble.
Albeit the operative tools
or true Masonic labor
Now yield the Orders nobler rules,
Toward God, and sell, and n~eighbor,
We bring not from the distant Past
A legendary story
The grandess living structures cast
Her monumental glory.
Thanks to the Architect Supreme!
Who BY the TEMPLES building,
By every joined block and beam,
BY splendid wealth Of gliding,
BY column and by yessibule,
And BY the place vail-hidden,
Presented Wisdom's perfect school,
To which our lives are hidden.
No more the Panethistic thought,
Life is a plants expansion:
MAN BUILDS a HOUSE; his deeds are
wrought
In texture Of q mansion.
The pavement Of the %grouud.aoor shows
Ahandiwork indented;
The walls which faithfulness enclose
By justice are cemented.
o, bond Of Truth! o, mystic tie!
That binds our hsart-strings human
In Brotherhood that passeth by ~
The vaunted love Of woman!
Where in the wide worlds mighty scope
Are found the homes not wanting,
Thy blessed power for faith and hope,
'Gainst hollow cheer and cantingi
The Ark whose capitals we greet
Which holds the workmen's wages
Has safely reached the Masters seat;
Borne down the Lodge Of Ages.
So shall il move, majestic, grand,
Through Times prescribed cycle,
Till on the sea and on the land
Shall stand the angel Michael!
