The Lamb Skin.
Hero's a Toast to the Lamb Skin
more ancient by far,
Tban the fleece of pure gold or
the eaglp of war,
It is an emblem of innocence more
noble to- wear".
Tban the Garter of England,or
an order as rare.
/
Let the king wear the purple and
point to his crown.
Which ma.v fall'from Lis brow
?when his throwoe tumbles down,
But the badge of a mason has
much more to give,
Than a king ao frail whif cannot
-long live. ^ , " "
Let the field marshal boa^t of the
men he can guide,
Of the infantry eoLumns and
heroes that ride,
But the white leather apron, his
standard out ranks',
Since it waives from the east to the
death river banks
Tit the shield of an orphan, tis the
hostes of love,
Tis the charter of faith in the
grand lodge above,
Kingdoms fall/Wf"earth, cities
crumble to dtUtT
Men'are borne but to die, swords
are made but to rust.
But the white leather apron
through ages past on^
Has survived with the lodges of
Holy St. John, ...
So here's a toast to the Lamb Skin,
; more ancient by far,
Tban the fleece of pure gold or tlx
1 eagles of war. ?

Oencr.il for An Opinion.?Up to
Now England Eankero.

eral anti-trust laws Is threatened by
the cotton loin fdnd plan recently
perfected by bankers and iuembers ot
the Federal Reserve Board, accord
ing to an. opinion handed donrn'by \
Attorney General Gregory at the re- j
quebt of ^President Wilson. >
Success, of th* $135,000,400 pool ;
now to believed by treasury officials '
to be assured. More than $30,000,000 ;
of the $100,000,000 to be raised among J
northern hankers already Kits been J
subscribed and practically all of the \
remainder. It Is understood, had been '
promised on condition of a favorable
opinion from the Attorney General. J
New England financiers. It was said, <
v.-ere reluctant to enter the p'nn until J
definitely assured that the method ot t
raiting the fund would not be con- *
a trued as unlawful.
1" Attorney General Gregory's opinion j
was rendered after a conference with <
President Wilson. The Treasury Dc- 3
partmeht made public the following <
correspondence:
-"The White House,
"My Depr Mr Attorney Genera): J
"I am sending the enclosed papers, \
submitted to mo byjhc Secret:: y of J
the Treasury, In orfffr to ascertain I
whether'In your opinion the proposed J
cotton loan fund may be lawfully j
formed. 1 know that It Is contrary 3
to the practice of the department 'of j
give opinions beforehand as to cqn- <
templafed transactloijp, and I think J
that such oplnlona ought never in or- 1
dlnary etrcumstances to be given, but j
the circumstances with regard to the 3
handling ot the great cotton crop j
which have bgen created by the Guru- ?
peen war are most extraordinary and j
seem to Justify extraordinary action. <
It Is for that reason that I venture to J
ask jpu to depart in this case from t
the usual practice of your department. J
"It oacurs to me that the fund aon- 3
rcmpltied stands in a class by Itself. J
It Is hardly conceivable thai such ar- .
rangements should become settled <
practices or furnish precedents which ,
would be followed B the fegu&r J
course of busineis or under ordinary i
conditions. They are as exceptional In ?
their nature as the circumstances .
they are meant to deal with and can *
hardly be looked upon as, by possi
bility even, dangerous precedents. It ,
la for this reason that I feel the more
Juttlflc-d'in asking for your opinion in
the premises.
"Cordially and alncerely yours,
(Signed)
"WOODROW MIGSON."
Mr. Gregory replied at once to the
President's letter staling that he was
tumble to see bow such a plan could
be thought to fall wtthtn the purview
of the anti-trust laws.
