al Memorial association, formed for the
purpose Of erecting q statue of the poet
in Washington, has issued an appeal 70
the public for subscriptions to accomplish
this purpose. The committee estimates
that $50, coo will be needed to procure
statue worthy of the poet and the site.
The smallest contributions will be well
coined. AS almost every American home
whore the inmates love good hterature.
says the appeal, contains copy Of Long
fellows poems, IL Is hoped that the re-
sponse may be both prompt and generous.
The Riggs National bank of Washing

agent for the Memorial association, and
checks may be made payable to 1T. Rev.
Alexander Mackay Smith, chairman and
General A. W. Greedy, secretary, on be-
half of the executive committee sign the
appeal, In the course of which they say:
at has been thought by many CON-
petent judges that statue Of Longfellow
placed here would be q fitting tribute
both to his fame and to the distinction
which he conferred upon American let
ters. 1t is grave reproach to us that
while England has been quick to recog-
nize his eminence by placi ng his bust in
Westminster Abbey. our own people have
as get, done little to testify the affection
and pride with which millions regard one

Third-That neither the governments

developing their national resources, and
of establishing upon firm basis their
