to see realized this tribute TO heroic
yalor our citizens should accept
gracefully whatever site may have
been chosen.
The location selected by the Sculp-
tor, the Secretary of State and the
Governor of Maryland on the grounds
Of St Johns College was unsurpassed
as site for statue as well as emf
nently appropriate as the spot where
Washington, Lafayette and DeKalb
himself had stood reviewing the
troops of the Continental army and
our French allies. Within the college
grounds lie the bones Of the French
officers and soldiers who died here
while their camp covered the present
enclosure, and Westinghouse tree is q
noted object Of interest No spot
could have been more appropriate for
an historical memorial as It was the
very scene Of Revolutionary life.
Placed at the point chosen, it would
have been visible from tho State,
House and the whole length of Col
lsge avenue Tor more properly Taber-
nacle street, which it would have inn
proved by the attraction such 90 or
nament presented, This choice of
site. it is but just to say, was entirely
approved both by Secretary Freling-
huysen and Secretary Bayard and
only changed 10 consequence of GER
tain legal questions as to securing q
title by the UDiled States.
Such statue presented to a 'live-
town" would have been used to create
new centre Of interest aud improve
ment aad have added thousands Of
dollars to the city it adorned-but the
indifference of OR council, and our
college, to any real progress consigns
this admirable work Of art to corner
where 1t adds nothing to our revenues.
It will of course attract attention
anywhere. bot does the present site
add to our taxable basis9''
With the historical interest attach
ing to st. Johns is it not the proper
place for the celebration of the day?
Around the State House there is no
room. There is ample space before
and behind the college, aud the loca.
ton should be interesting to our Wis.
itors. and such an assemblage would
serve to advertise St. Johns and per-
haps even arouse its somnOlent guar
dams to removal Of the nuisance
which disgracd the rear of Mcdowell
Hall. Let this favor be particularly 70.
quested by any committee which may
be formed by our citizens to celebrate
the day. The German Societies, our
Military and their friends and our citi-
zeus could enjoy gala day on the
college grounds, and at least for day
imagine the old College as having
some sympathy with the people and
the ideas Of our century,
