THE KEATS mosUMEsr.


The London Globe of July 10 refers to the
fact that there is as yet no memorial of
John Keats erected upon English ground
by English admirers as an astonishing"
circumstance. Ii does not seem to US as-
tonishing at all. for there is no monument
erected to Byron, to Shelley or TO Oliver
Cromwell in England.
Lord Beaconsfeld tried to secure the
erection of a monument to Byron, but
since Beaconsfeld's death the project
seems to have languished. There was
memorial association orgsrized in Eng
land a few years ago whose purpose is to
secure the erection of q monument to
Shelley, but the work is not yet COM
pleted, although contributions have been
asked from his admirers on both sides of
the water. Up to about three years ago.
there was no bust of Burns in Westminster
Abbey.
The truth is that monuments in Eng
diers, sailors, statesmen. men of science
and philanthropists. The great names of
English poetry and fiction are many of
them not yet honored with q monument
erected by English admirers on English
ground. Burns. Byron and Shelley were
not in favor with the governing classes,
the court and the church in their day:
Keats was OF humble parentage; died
when but IS years old, and his poetry was
not of the sort that would ever make him
n popular favorite with the general public
He had none of that popular strength that
is found in Byron's mighty. resounding
linen
Scott, Wordsworth and Tennyson lived
long enough TO obtain. if not enjoy. court
recognition, but Burns. Byron and Shelley
were heartily hated by both the court and
the church. while Keats, humbly BORN,
died very young. and his poetic work is
not OF the sort that would ever give him
popular name. fame and recognition
among the English people.
A man of artistic. poetic quality and
lover of natural beauty would read Keats
with delight but the many will never read
Keats or Shelley as they do Byron, who.
with sill his faults, his exuberance, his
grammatical lapses, was counted by Goethe
England's greatest poet after Shakespeare,
for his powers of description were I'M
equailed and his capacity TO reason in
verse very great.

D.. N. Hunter...A o N n nicat1sn
from the University Of Nebraska.
CONTINUED from last week.
A COMMENT.
l will also state that Of the entire
number attending the county high
school OF Dickinson county, more than
30 percent are boys and girls from the
farm. 10 fact, it is a farmers insti-
tuition; but equally as useful to the
city, for the county high school affords
many advantages which in my esti-
nation the city high school does not
offer. The expense Of maintaining
such a school is not great to the
county. Only one mill tax has been
levied annually for the support Of the
Dickinson county high school. I will
add further, that the county high
school Of Dickinson county is we'll pat
ronized by the people Of every portion
Of the county. Parents 90 to the
Chapman, where the school is located;
rent rooms for their children and pro.
vide them with the necessary furoiture
(often taken from home), and also pro-
vide them with the necessary food.
This makes the entire cost Of attend
ing the school for a year q very small
sum indeed fer the benefits derived.
Others obtain board at o very small
sum.
l sincerely believe that If the peo-
pie Of our county could be led to sec
the benefits to be derived from the es.
tablishmeut Of q county high school,
that the vote would be unanimous"
CONCLUSION.
In conclusion the University author
tiles ask that the press Of the state
give the widest publicity tc
the changes herein proposed, and sug
gest that the county high school b,
made a matter Of thoughtful consid
Grafton and earnest discussion on tn,
part Of all citizens. II the next leg
i%slature is convinced that this legisla
ton is generally and intelligently de
manded by the people of the state
there will be no difficulty whatever il
passing this law; thus putting Nc
braska far in the lead in the compile
ton Of that which will be q state SIS
tenn Of public education worthy of tn
name.
