EVERY ONE MAY
HONOR BURNS
His Monument Should Come
From the Entire
People.
Promoters of the P an Wish 1t
to Be an Expression From
All Nationalities.
All Knsw and Loved the Poet, and
All May Join to Honor Him,
Says Colin Boyd.

The SUBJ com mittee of the Burns 10 onu-
m ent committee, which has been author
ized to formulate plan for permanent
organization, held two meetings within
the past week.
Colin NJ. Boyd, chairman, and Y. G.
Lawson, secretary of the temporary Or
anization, will be recommended as per-
manent officers of the general committee.
The rules of order which will entail the
appointment of subcommittee involve
considerable consideration in order that
the entire machinery may be made to
run smoothly. The various programmes
by which the necessary funds may be
raised will also require considerable
thought at the hands of this committee.
I'VE intend 10 erect such monument
in Golden Gate Park as will be credit to
not only the Caledonian Clup, but the en-
tire people of this State and City," said
Colin Nj. Boyd yesterday. ut must be
borne in mind that this monument is
going to be placed IN the peoples park for
all time to come, and not for day or
year. The memory of Robbie Burns will
never die SO long as the English language
is spoken, hence it is nothing strange or
wonderful that the Scotch people and their
descendants in this distant land of gold
pIeUty SDOuiQ AT LnlS time make q
movement 10 show their appreciation of
his genius. 1t will not be looked upon as
a clannish measure.
"To make it purely Scotch would be an
attempt to circumscribe the genius of
him whose poems have become so dear 10
the people.
considering the magnitude of this
undertaking, the committee, OF which l
have the honor to be the chairman, will
give all the details intrusted 10 it the
most careful consideration. We want the
assistance and confidence OF the whole
people in this undertaking. so when we
are dead and gone our successors may
point with pride 10 :he monum mt in the
park which was erected under the au-
spices OF the Caledonian Club in 1900.
Permit me to say that we appreciate
the offer made TO the monument commit
tee TO accept benefit in the Alcazar,
but Tor the present We have not decided
upon any one plan for raising money"
The com mitIee on mem bership to which
d. X. McNeill, Andrew Wilkie and Colin
Nj. Boyd have been appointed, is also con-
sldering the best means to obtain the CO.
operation of the best citizens, irrespective
OF nationality, the object being, as ex-
pressed BY Mr.. McNab, TO give the under
taking broad and universal character.
It's expe' ted that both o these sub-com-
mittees will have line of action formu-
lated for the consideration of the monu-
ment committee when this body meets
Tomorrow evening.
