HIS PLACE IN HISTORY
In his closing remarks. Father McGlynn said
that Henry George, by his life and teachings,
had helped to hasten the coming Of the day
when brotherhood would prevail among men.
Henry eorge he said. a sent OF God,
not merely to this Nation. to this generation.
but to the whole world and would one day
cupy higher and nober place In the history
OF the development. OF mankind than If he had
merely occupied the chair OF the Mayoralty Of
New-York or of the Presidency Of the United
States.
JOHN S. CROSBY THE LAST SPEAKER.
Join s. Crosby president Of the Manhattan
Single Tax Club. who acted for that organiza.
ton in pres anting the nomination for Mayor to
Henry George at Cooper Un'on the next
and the last TO address the audience. He
reused them not only to applause but also 10
cheers declaring that Mr.. Georges theories
were correct, and saying rhat they had never
| been answered Mr.. crosby interpreted the
great demonstration Of respect that the world
was paying the memory OF Henry George as an
admission that his contentious could not be
denied He said in part:
have not IN, words or language TO express my
feelings as TO the man who lies dead before us.
This man had theory. II Y Is Only a theory.
| why should the world rise up and pay Il
! tribute to the man? We believe that one man has
! as much right as another. but that one man has
/ no more light than another. Henry George knew
the so-called vested rights were wrong. His book
/ has never had equal. No man has ever yet
! answered It's arguments. tCrles OF NO one ever
| will answer themiD Henry George was Thomas
| Jefferson reincarnate The thought that spranS
| up In his mind moves the world to-day.
