Custer md His Men.

Our correspondent "Justitia," not with
people neglect to honor their illustrious
dead by. the erection of monuments and
statues. One excuse may be that there are
so many great men and SO few good sculp-
tors, but deeper reason is that the
tendency of this century is not to
perpetuate fame in marble. Even in
Europe the custom is not 50 general as in
ancient times, and her best statues belong
to the past more than to the present Still,
as long as nations are grateful to their
heroes and art is appreciated such monu-
mental honors will be rightly paid. 'Justitia"
properly calls attention to the apparent stop
page in the movement for the erection of
q monument in honor of General Custer.
Immediately after the death of that brave
soldier the proposition to build monu-
ment was received with enthusiasm through
out the United States, and in short
time large fund was subscribed.
The battle in which he and his
gallant command were killed occurred
more than year ago, and something
definite should be now decided in respect
to the statue and its site. West Point
would be the place which General Custer
would have chosen. Nothing need be
added now to the eloquent appeal Of Jus
titia" except to express the general wish
that the committee having charge of the
scheme should inform the public of its re-
sources and purposes.
