Encouragement Of Ars AT the Capital.
PRIVATE CITIZEN HAS DONE MORE THAN THE Gov
BRNNENT.
Representative ForaD, in his eloquent speech In
favor Of a geological garden here, maintained that
the expenditure OF the public money for sclenIifc
ana other useful purposes has never been CON-
planned or by the people. Especially Is this true
when money is appropriated and expended for the
benent, the education, and the edlncation VI the
people. Money expended for pubic parks and bo-
who cannot AFFORD these luxuries as the wealth,
can. may breathe fresh air, enhance their health,
and Improve their minds, Is never condemned, but
Is Always commended and appreciated by those
who pay taxes for these parks are the recreation
grounds OF the poor.
