Some little delay, or rather a'great deal
Of delay, has taken place in the matter
Of arranging for the location and dedica-
ton Of the soldiers monument in this city.
Much Of this delay resulted from the very
leisurely manner in which this was
pushed through Council, and also the lack
otunanimity among the parties having
the matter Of location in charge. Some
weeks ago, however, Council settled this
yexed question, and the intersection Of
ohapline and Fourteenth streets was
definitely fixed upon as the site, and since
that time nothing has been done whatever
that has come under public notice, and
the whole affair has been gradually drop
pingout Of sight. The committee who have
In charge the matter OF inscription and
dedication have been quietly ct work and
have arranged the following:
