COLORADO ROADS MAY FIGHT.

Burlington, Rock Island and Santa Fe
After Worlds Fair TrafRc.
The question as to which road is to
receive the bulk of the worlds fair
traffic from Colorado is very likely to
terminate in a very pretty little scrap
between the Burlington, Rock Island
and Santa Fe roads, says a Denver
paper. If these three lines get in a rate
war it will be cheaper to go to the
worlds fair than to stay at home A
feature of the rate situation that is in
teresting to passenger men IS that
brought about by the exposition at St.
Louis. Al present the lines TO St. Louis
are taking the bulk of the travel east,
because Of the opportunity to visit the
fair. The Chicago-Colorado lines are
looking on with anything but a cheer
ful expression. They see their summer
traffic going to the bow vows.

metric sYsten and Trade

The recent discussion of the metric
system and the introduction in con-
gress of bills looking to the ultimate
adoption in the United States suggests
statement of facts regarding this
system and it's relation to commerce.
Among the reasons offered for the
adoption of the system are these, emu
merated by the secretary of the ma
tional bureau of standards of the de-
partment of commerce and labor;
First.-The ambiguity, ,unsatisfactori"
ness and made quacy of the old systems
or in other words, their inability to-
meet modern needs.
Second-The metric system is interna~
tional, the only complete international
system of weights and measures ever
adopted.
Third 1t is the simplest and most
perfect system, being decimal through
outand all its unit interrelated.
Fourth-The metric standards are
constructed upon the best scientific
principles, preserved with the creates
care and may be copied with the high
est precision.
The great argument offered in be-
half of the metric system is its simplicl-
ty. It's base is the decimal base and
that every child has to learn anyway.
Only three terms are needed to express
quantities-viZ, meters for lengths,
grams for weights and liters for vol
ume. A few Greek terms with adjec-
torial force complete the entire
terminology. The United States
Statistician says two-thirds OF school
year would be saved to American boys
and girls by putting the metric system
in place of the other twelve or thirteen
systems. Carry this enormous saving
of time into the counting houses oil
the country, into all kinds of calcula
tion from the farm to the factory and a
fairly good idea is obtained OF what
the metric system would save. The
chief argument against its introduct-
ion is the cost to those with money
invested under the present systems OF
weights and measures. While the loss ef'
fected by change as is being advocated
would certainly be considerable 1T is
urged that the repeated losses conse-
quent upon continuing along the pres
ent lines would be very much greater"
