A Memorial to Horace Greeley.

A Memorial to Horace Greeley.
From the Sunday Bee, Omaha, Neb.. May 10.
Horace Greeley, the founder OF the
New York Tribune, has been dead
nearly seventeen years. There are
few Americans who better deserve
to have their memory perpetuated in
granite and marble than the great ed.
itor who did more than any other to
make American journalism illustri-
Gus, and whose services to his
country and to humanity were
unsurpassed by any man of his
time. Shortly after the death of Mr..
! Greedy a large and influential CON-
mittee was formed in New York for
the collection of money to erect a
monument TO his memory. An APP
peal made by this committee for con-
tributions brought responses to the
amount of several thousand dollars,
but public interest in the matter was
allowed to die out, and the fund was
put on investment. Subsequently
the Typographical Union of New
York City and the Grand Army of
the Republic post that bears the name
of the dead editor organized special
movement to raise funds for fitting
statue. Recently the two funds have
been consolidated, amounting to ten
thousand dollars, and the well-known
sculptor, Alexander Doyle, awarded
the contract for the proposed memo
rial, which it is intended to erect in
the City Hall Square in New York.
But the sum in hand is insufficient
for carrying out the plan of the pro-
of
is to be made to increase it to So, 900.
For this purpose an appeal will be
made to the printers and editorial
fraternity of the United States, in
order that the monument may have
more the character of a national than
local tribute. Such an appeal ought
to meet with an immediate and general
response. Every member of the edi-
torial fraternity in the United States
should feel it to be proud privilege
and grateful duty to contribute to a
memorial to the foremost of American
editors. Among all the great men
who contributed to make the press OF
the United States potential and re-
spected force, Horace Greedy is uni
versally conceded to have held the
first place and the great work he did
was not less valuable than that
accomplished by the soldier or the
statesman. American journalism
owes him a great debt of gratitude and
honor, and it can in no other way so
well attest its sense of the obligation
as in generally contributing to the
erection of a memorial that will be
worthy of the most distinguished of
American editors.

The st. Louis Republic has been
collating the democratic opinion ad-
verse to the nomination of Hill in
1892 as candidate for President. In
presenting its concensus of opinion to
the world the Republic scores Hill
numerically. Republican editors
should file away that number, June
Is, 1859. 1t will prove very racy read

THE Ell Paso Tribune follows the
lead of the St. Louis Republic, much
as a tin-canister follows the lead of
the little dogs tail to which it has
been tied. The Republic pitches into
the soldiers and the pensions paid,
grows awfuIly glum over the $780,
900, 900 in pensions paid the insatiate
soldiers and figures out the useless
ness of pensions on a S13 month and
found basis. The Tribune quotes its
leader and rattles its can to the fol-
lowing tune:
GAS soon as the soldier vote ceases
to be an important factor in determin-
ing elections, the Tribune will learn
that if the debt can't be paid it can
be repudiated. The soldier is pen
stoned for his vote, and not from any
sense of obligation"
The Ell Paso man will find it a little
more difficult to repudiate a national
obligation than to repudiate republi-
can votes in a municipal election.

"Guyingn during the game is very
apt to rattle the home players. That
was the effect it had at Winchester.
Now buy a 5000 season ticket and
help the boys to keep Rider.
Winchester has good team and
the people can make it much strong
er, by properly encouraging the
boys. That is big thing with a
club.
The ride home was cold and mo-
notonous. Singing and sleeping held
the fort, while Rider held half the

The expected base ball game be-
tween the Martinsburg and Winches-

our boys to victory, but cruel fate
was against them, and in common
parlance the Martinsburg nine
"scoopedn our boys-the score stand
ing 25 to 10. We sympathize with
the beaten nine, but boys they were
too many for you, and won their vic
tory by superior playing. The Mar
tinsburg nine were clever set Of
gentlemen and we trust will wear
their honors well.-Tgmes.
WHAT'S the matter with Martins
burg With the "Haggard" Rider
at their head they talked of wiping
up the whole Cumberland Valley.
The Hagerstown club is still at the
same stand, ready to give them all
the fun they want.-Hagerstoaon
Meas.
The only time Martinsburg put
Rider in against Hagerstown they
kicked and squirmed and compelled
him to leave the box He was too
"Haggard" for them then, and so is
he now. We haven't q paid battery
from Frederick, or Edwards, of the
Waynesboro club, playing with us
to scare other mines, az Hagerstown
has. Our boys are all from home,
and when fully organized, Hagers-
town won't have to ask whats the
matter with Martinsburg Z" Nor

want five games with you, my dear
brother, and We shall see what we
shall see. Abigail don't scare worth

Fifth Ward Matters.

1iT. Editor Some person styling
himself "Taxpayer," in this week S
Statesman, assumes the role OF guar
dian Tor all the wards of the town.
Over here we thought George De
GRACE would attend to things, as it
is understood that he has been around
looking after the interests of the in
jured. Mr.. Stevens has made a good,
energetic, safe councilman, and no
charges can be preferred against him.
AS we pay our taxes, we want our
streets improved, and while there
may be sometimes a difference of
opinion, yet, on the main question of
improvements we all agree, and we
don't want any old fogy, stick-in-the-
mud councilman. If suits are to be
brought against the corporation, let
one be brought for injury done by
work not ordered by the council,
such as cutting off the bill on South
Queen street, and other places Mr..
Stevens never acts without orders,
and has the confidence OF the people
of his ward STRINEvILLE.

Improve the Town.

mr.. Editor "A so-called "Tax-
payer" ventilates himself in this
weeks Statesman, and attacks the
Council for extravaganza, and espe-
cially throws dirt at Councilman Ger
ling. The truth is, the Corporation
finances never were in better condi-
tion--the Republican members as
sert this, and the Democratic mem
bers win not deny it. The expenses
Of the Corporation were several hum
bred dollars more last year than this,
and this year streets have been gra-
ded, water works extended, and an
additional building erected at the
water works for increased power in
pumping water in extinguishing fire.
That cost money, but was an actuul
necessity. The interest has been
paid on the debt, and the process Of
reduction always well looked after.
In the second ward Mr.. Gerling has
only carried out the wishes Of
the property holders, and TO COM
plete the work that had been previ-
ously commenced by Mr.. Cushwa
and never completed. Every prop
erty holder, every citizen desires
wide awake, progressive improve
ment. The town must keep pace
with neighboring towns in all that
goes to make things comfortable and
pleasing. We want level streets,
nice pavements, good buildings,
handsome fronts and neat surround
ings. Those members Of the Coun-
Gil who have themselves violated not
only the ordinances in grading, &C.,
but were subjects of comment and in
vestigation, should be careful about
making charges against any person.
Let the good work go on.

strange specimen of humanity is Miss

years of age. She is but twenty-six
inches in height, and can neither
walk or talk. She has passed the
whole of her existence in cradle.
Her memory is phenomenal, but evil

signs. No one has ever been able to

she was unable to point out. Songs

the greatest nation in the world. 1t
is probable that nothing short Of

could, il she pleased, almost ruin the
commerce of any nation on the
globe. 1t Is true she has scarcely
any army, her twenty-five thousand

her limitless command alike Of money
and men would soon draw feet to-
gether. Besides, apart altogether
from her existing resources, the
growth in the strength of the Union
affects the imagination of the Euro
pean states.
There are children alive who will
see, or at all events may see, the
"North American Republic with q
population of two hundred millions
and the means of raising three hum
dred million pounds sterling year !;
and the idea of mourning the enmity
ofsuch power is as appalling as the
idea of fighting Russia would be,
say, by Italy or Spain. America
could be met only by confedera-
ton of Europe, which, without some
great change of circumstances, would
be impossible, or possible only if all
Europe felt it too dangerous to put
up with the treatment one power
was receiving.
The Union already stands toward
the Spanish and Portuguese-Ameri-
can states in the relation in which
she may one day stand toward Eu-
rope itself. Her foreign Office al
ready claims something like a pro-
tectorate over both Americas, and
desires to weld preponderating in
