A MONUMENT TO GREATNESS q

is to cost $29.150 1t is to be built of granite

glass windows and bronze gates.-Danville

1t is well. Greatness should have its
memorials in some shape or other. The
DUKES are great, therefore a mausoleum
is the proper thing, even if it does cost
the trife of $4,000. And UNCLE WASH
is shrewd enough to know that unless be
builds this monument himself that pos
terity will never do ii for him. But even
the marble lining and tiled floors" Of
this self erected monument will not stitie
the cries of the poor North Carolina
planters aud their breadless children,
which must haunt the sleep of those who
will rest in this $780, 900 tomb
MR. MAILER, of this city, brings tie
above to our attention. 1t appeared dur
ing our recent absence in Omaha
We do not care to rattl" the bones over
the grave. But some one should attempt
to kick the measly HARTMAN over all this
country. HARTMAN speaks of The tomb
that is so cost tritle over $4,000" Of
course to MIR HARTMAN and his wealth
the mere matter Of cheap repository for
the dead is something that should not be
allowed.
In the first place, HARTMAN kicks, like
the ass that he is, because other people do
not 60 into a stable like himself.
| But
This is not case of where levity should
have its sway.
Hundreds of thousands of people have
builded in the little plots of ground called
"God's Acre." that consecrated plot
where is consigned to earth all of the
cold clay which e7st and erewhie was
| jOVal with laughter, the dust which
| gives back no smile-eyes which neer
again on this earth glisten-the Me of
ali that was
| And here we have the specimen of
one who mOcks the form of man, who is
human and yet vulture-a vampire,
who prowls with type and ink-and with
| nocturnal instinct and daylight practices
does not become a ghoul, but merely
manifests himself No, such an one will
remain just what it is. There is no
change In nature VIXEN she once asserts
herself, and denies the viper which she
has thrown madly from her womb.
"Marble lining and tiled floors" for
those who sleep their sleep-and let the
hyena HARTMAN desecrate them with his
ungodly tread And with the millions
made-and UNCLE WASH made them
he takes but 800 900 to build for himself
and forty others the tomb and grave in
quiet cemetery-a graveyard undis
turbed only by such vultures as HARTMAN,
dollars to Trinity and over hundred
thousand to other concerns and thou
sands 20 charity-and all of them char
liable insttutions-have been given by
UNCLE WAsH-and yet this ghoulish
vuture, this ignorant vandal seeks, as
they all seek, to tear their imagined prey
in shreds.
So far as we are concerned we would
rather, were we UNCLE WASH DUKE
be him as he is and as he will be and as
he has bccn,-than to be the creature
HARTMAN who was struck in the back
and who is a mean and despicable mis-
creant, denied by, we hope, COP, if not
by men.
And this, in face Of the fact that the
American Tobacco company has to day
a royal boycott on The GLOBE.
