The Henry George Monument.

The dedication of a monument, paid
FOR by public subscription, to the MEM
Try of that great and good man, Henry
George, who lies buried in Greenwood
cemetery, New York, is a we'll deserved
tribute. Few men have lived who were
liner examplars of public sPAi it and of
purity and nobility of character. His
whole career was devoted with q single
we to the welfare of his kind. If he
showed on several occasions of his life
ambition for public Office, no one who
knew him ever believed that there was
anything in the least ignoble or self
seeking i'll that ambition. Like many
other great men, he did not need u
monument to keep his memory fresh in
the public mind and heart. His life anG
his great books, Progress and Poverty
and political Economy" will prov,
sufficiently monumental, "more ondur
ing than brass or royal palaces. Still
mementos in marble or bronze have the
grace of gratitude and love to comment
them.
Rev. DR.. Edward McGlynn was the
principal orator on the occasion of tn,
dedication. This enthusiastic disciple
of the Georgian philosophy was in the
main no more than just in his eulogy.
But his fervor struck one false note. He
alluded to Henry George as having been
a prosecuted man during his life. This
is an amazing statement. We know OF
no thinker whose opinions fomented
such hot controversy to whose high
minded sincerity Of belief and eloquence
Of presentation all his opponents in Eu-
rope and America paid higher tribute,
no one who was more genuinely no.
spected, even admired, by those who diff
fered from him. When he died, the uni
versal sentiment vas expressed with no
uncertain sound that one had gone
whom the world could lily afford to
lose. This chorus Of admiration called
forth by the man himself, as well as by
his writings, during his lifetime and
after. can scarcely be called persecution.
