METRIC WEIGHTS AND MEASURES.

being not only as regards locality, but lso
as to the article TO be sold. Thus, for in-
stance, the bushei is Washington is an
altogether different thing from the busbel
In Massachusetts, and that again from the
Illinois measure, and again the weight Of
bushel Of wheat is not the same as that
OF bushei OF potatoes. Druggists buy their
goods by one weight and sell by another: a
quart dry measure is Eot the same as a
quart wet measure, and So On to the end
OF the chapter. 1t is clumsiness and cum
fusion a II the way through, ard the marvel
is that the people Of the United States, WHO
are SO practical in all other things, have
been content to put up with this nuisa nce
these many years.
The introduction of the metric or deci-
mai system would put an end to all this
at one stroke. The objection that IT
would take too long before the people
could become accustomed to the new order
or things Is not valid one, for in the
first place. ample time would be per-
mitted to eiapse between the adoption OF
the law and its going into force, and.
again. the American people are not at
all slow in adapting themselves to new
conditions. Let the metric system be once
established and people will wonder low
they ever got along without it.
The morning times., 1896-07-18

Considerable attention has been given
by the press of the country TO the bill Of
fered at the last session Of Congress by
Representative c. W. Stone, of Pennsyl
vania, and favorably considered by the
Committee on Coinage, Weights and Meas
ures. proposing the establishment of the
metric system in the United States. Com
ment upon it has been in the main in favor
of the Change, the convenience and advisa-
blity of which is generally conceded. In
fact, it is rather singular that the United
States has not before adopted the metric
system in regard to weights and measures,
as well as to coins, for the decimal feature
Of the national currency Is it cliiefest merit
Until Germany, after its unification, adopt
ed the decimal system as to its money,
every little State had n different coin and
standard, aud there was constant confus-
ion aud annoyance, whereas now IL is
plain sailing, and even n foreigner has no
trouble in faniliariziug himself with the
coin OF the realm.
AS in Germany then SO 1t is here now,
and has been all along, in relation to
weights and measures. There are pounds
troy and pounds avoirdupois; there are
short tons and long tons; there are fur
longs, rods, yards and inches; there are
bushels Of varying capacity, the difference

Thanks for the Truth

Editor Times: The enterprise OF your
the deception Of Silver King" Stewart
and others in their Professions of interest
for the workngman. No better illustrii-
tion Could be afforded than the facts pro-
duced by The Times yesterday. showing
how Sena tor Stewart and others OF his
class pay the workingman half-price wages
when under their Cunirtl.
The printers who labor on the Silver
Knight are paid Sl.5U for Bine hours
work, and the "Silver knight" is owned
aud conduc,e ed in the interest of the silv er
mine owners. The truth is that Senator
Stewart and all the otber silver Senators
are working to enrich themselves at the
sacrifice OF workinen.
Free silver would make silver kings
richer, debase our currency, and bring
undue misery upon the masses.
II The Times would give 10 the public

why free silver is desIuid Try many of
