On Sacred Soil.

TT is a pleasure to come here onto
this sacred soil of -Alexandria-that felt
his tread-to come into this lodge, and
have the strong personal feeling that you
cannot help having when you handle the
trowel that he handled, and when you
come under the influence of the same at
mosphere that the father of our country
breathed; so 1t is that it gives me the
greatest pleasure as the President of the
United States, proud to succeed that long
line of great men with the greatest at
the head. George Washington, to he here
and to testify, both in my character as
an individual and as temporary President
of the United States. the profound re-
spect that we all feel for him as a fell
low-Mason. as u citizen, as patriot and
as our father.
Il ought to stop here. but I observe
that In this program somebody has slip
ped In a leaf-I don't know whether it
was with the consent of the management
or not, because / understand that politics
is abolished in Masonic gatherings. But
there is something about the name of
reciprocity that attracts d Mason, and it
sratified me much to know that one OF
the delegations here (Mchigan). that came
in great number, found III of them in
favor of reciprocity and only > hesitating
quarrel. AS l understand it that delegation
where opposition may be expected if any
where. and if there only ) out of 11a-
five recalcitrants-whch the influence, and
the proper influence of Masonry will
bring over. certainly we ought all to be
eucOura ged.

ALEXANDRIA, Va, February -. 1911.
Alexandria is not to become again
part of the District of Columbia. Presi-
dent Taft announced at the Masonic ban
auet here last evening that he had given
up all hope of it. The ancient city will
remain in the bosom of her beloved Nir-
.inia probably for all time, since the in
fuence of the President of the United
States. the strongest ever exerted, to
have her return to her old home as a
part of the original ten-mie square has
been overcome by the forceful senators
and representatives of the mother Of
Presidents
The President spoke as follows:
1T is a great pleasure to come to the
city of Alexandria and find such a wei
come, because / do not deserve 1t. he
said. Il have been trying. but l have
given up the effort to bring Alexandria
into Washington. ! consulted your two

board. and your handsome representative

told that further pressure of that ques-
ton would be dangerous, and so I gave
it up, and ] accept with heartfelt graft
tude your welcome.
FavorS a Memorial.
Il am delighted to be here to honor
with you the memory of that greatest of
Masons. George Washington. 1t is a
pleasure to take part in the movement
which is to give him memorial here in
Alexandria, where he enjoyed the asso-
citation of Masonry, to erect a monument
that l hope will be as dignified and as
satisfactory as the monument that creeps
into every landscape unmarked within
miles of our Capital City.
Il think it was Ingersoll who said that
the difficulty with the memory of Wash
ington was that most of us knew him
only as steel engraving. That is far
from the fact to any one who has made
himself in the slightest degree familiar
with that wonderful life of his.
I'VE speak with enthusiasm of the pro-
found philosophy and patriotism of JEFF
ferson, of the wonderful genius of Ham
llton, and we can follow through all that
long line of giants of intellect who stood
for this country in its country's need at
the time of the revolution but why is it.
my friends, that above them All, not with
so much genius as Hamilton, not with so
much intellect as Jefferson. not with so
much brllllancy as many others, above
them all, head and shoulders stands
Washington? Because of his character
He united with that character that
observation-disclosures, that pure, disinteresteS
patriotism, and that patience that en-
abled him to unite all these men to-
gether in one common purpose, and keep
them. Notwithstanding their defects of
temperament, Notwithstanding the jeal-
ousfes that sometimes interfered with
their joint movement toward theiv COM
mon purpose. He kept them together by
that sanity, that judgment and ny the in
fuence of his personality and character
he made possible the creation of this
republic.
