which he could not give. It was I'm proof that
Bob Reid declared that he would carry Sum

completion Of the Washington National
Monument, there are appropriations by the
state legislatures as follows: New York,
$4,000; Connecticut, 5000; New Jersey
5000; Minnesota, 81 600. Contributions are
steadily coming in, and il is hoped that if
there ere any organizations in the District
that have not yet responded they w.ll do so
at once. Certainly every one living within
sight of that unfinished monument should
lead hearty cooperation in any movement
for lis completion.
