FredrickA A. Rartholdi, Designer of"Liberty
EnliGhtening the World"

EnliGhtening the World"
We give an excellent portrait Of the man
who designed the mammoth statue of
Liberty E~nlightening the World" He
is present in New York at the ceremonies
associated with the dedication of that pro-
ductiOn of his genius which, towering in
gigantic grandeur above the waters of the
harb0r, is one Of the wonders OF the
world. The height of the top of the torch
held by Liberty, above mean low water, is
inch under 300 feet.
France made the United States q present
of the statue, for which the pedestal is pro-
vided by the gifts of many thousands OF
American people. IT'S very pleasing to
think that a multitude of French folds and
of our own citizens have together con-
tributed the wonderful Liberty" statue.
The republic OF Europe and the republic OF
America have herein another tie of the
friendship given the United States in its
struggle for freedom.
Frederic Auguste Bartholdi is about fifty
one years old. He is a native of Colmar,
France. Born a sculptor, his bias was
favored by fortune, and he made great pro-
ficiency in his art as the pupil of AIRY
Scheffer. In 1852. when quite a young
man, his bas-relief of Francesca di
Rimini," attracted considerable attention.
Visitors to New York will remember the
statue of Lafayette, in Uuion Square. Bar
tholdi carved this pleasing production. lie
came to America in 1876, as II of the
French Commissioners to the Centennial
Exhibition. 4 medal was awarded him
there for the merit of three of his pieces,
Since designing Liberty he has increased
his reputation by his creation of a huge
lion in stone, eighty feet long and thirty
feet high, the wonder" Of Belfort, France,
and commemorative of its successful de,
tense against the German arms in the wal

SOCIAL OSTRACISM OF MRS. GEO,
GOULD.

GOULD.
New York society has issued an edict
against Mrs. GEORGE GOULD, nee Miss
KINGDOM, and will attempt to ostracize
her from their social circles, because she
had to stOOp to things so humiliating As
to honestly work for a living and a support
for her widowed mother.
- Miss KINGDOM came from an honorable
family. Her ancestors were sturdy, hon
est, well to do people. Her career as an
actress was without spot or blemish to her
character. She is brilliant, handsome
and possessed Of winning manners.
Yet the New York ~top-loity dudes and
soft headed girls who have nothing else to
do but talk Of ariStOcratic blood, and expend
the money made by sOap-flt men, deal
ers in secondhand clothes and vendors of
cells and Goldfish, think it is "pufectly
hawrid'' and ''scwandalaus'' for her to
come near them in society.
This is the land where all men are de-
clared equal. But to think that a circle
of New York lunatics should try to ape
the customs of Europe and build up an
American aristOcracy is enough to make
the New Yorker ashamed of his
country. Such things won't work
i'm America. \ persons actions
may justly entitle him to contempt
and lack of certain attachments may bar
him from the association of more cultured
circles, because such association would not
be a pleasure to himself or Others. But
where a person has all the attachments
that are attributed to Mrs. GOULD and has
the cold shoulder turned toward her sim
ply because she worked, is a sad common
tary upon New YOrG's so called best SOci-
ETY.. The persons trying to Ostraeize
Mrs. GOULD will yet be ashamed of them
selves, rs they should be.

THE MEANING OF THE GEORGE
CAMPAIGN.

The immense vote of 6 1000 given Mr..
HENRY GEORGE, after a short campaign,
in which he labOred under the greatest
difficulties, is without precedent in the his
tory of the nation. few weeks ago these
men were an u~nOrganized Heterogeneous
mass, were without political leaders and
without any funds for carrying on a pOlit-
ieal campaign. Yet the vote they polled
surpassed that of Mr.. ROOSEVELT, who
was backed by one of the great pOlitica
parties.
The New York World has this striking
comment upon the result The heavy
vote for the Labor candidate is something
more than q personal tribute to and tri-
umph for HENRY GEORGE. 1t testifes to
the existence Of a deeply rooted discomfort
among the working classes. 1t signifies in an
unmistakable M that the cOrrectable
abuses, the remedable wrongs aad the re
movable inequalities that press men down
in this land ofhberty mast BE- attended TO.
Government has too long been careless and
society indifferent in regard to these mat
terS The deep-yoieed protest conveyed in
the $1,000 votes for HENRY GEORGE
against the combined power of both pOiti-
cal parties; Of Wall street and the business
interests, and of the public press, should
Prove q warning to the community to heed
tAe demands Of Labor 50 long as they are
3aa and reasORaH-and that is much far
Their than the majority of citizens have
thus far been willing to admit. The per
sistenee of the agitation and its culmina-
ton in this significant vote ought to dem
snstrate to Open-minded people that there
i some reason for the diseontent-that the
demands have an element Of justice in
them. 1t Is true that the money power has
sncroaehed on public rights. Not content
with enjoying their wealth, the modern
