HIS MAIDEN EFFORT
State Senator Bishop Of This
County Appears Before State
Senate to Urge Memorial
PRAISES KEN0SHA SOLDIERS
State Senator Pays Tribute to y. G. Sim
mons for the Many Kindnesses He
has Shown to the Brave Men
Who Wore the Blue

State Senator Isaac T. Bishop, of
Somers, made his maiden effort in the
state senate at Madison on Thursday.
when he appeared before the senate
to present the petition from Kenosha
county, asking that the senate appro-
pirate the sum of one hundred thous-
sand dollars for the purpose Of build
ing suitable monument at Vicks-
burg, Miss. to commemorate the va1or
of the seventeen commands of Wis.
corsin troops that actually partici-
pated IN that memorable campaign
and siege. The Kenosha petition is
one of the first to be presented to the
senate urging the appropriation and
it is expected that during the next
few days large number of petitions
will be presented from the different
counties of the state. In laying the
petition before the state senate, Sena-
tor Bishop paid tribute to the Ke-
ncsha county soldiers and referred
especially to the many kindnesses
which z. G. Simmons had shown to
the old soldiers during the war of the
rebellion and since the close of the
great struggle. In presenting the
petition Mr.. Bishop said:
The attached petition urging the
passage of bill No. - S, to appro-
pirate 100000 for the erection of a
suitable state monument at Vicks-
burg, Miss, to commemorate the
valor Of Wisconsin troops that parti-
cipated in the campaign and siege of
Vicksburg, is signed by many of the
leading and most representative citi-
zens of Kenosha. The list includes
the signatures of bankers, merchants,
editors, professional men and public
officials. z. G. Simmons, whose
name leads the petition, considered it
an honor to be allowed to promote
the comfort and welfare of Civil war
veterans by generous donations from
his personal fortune, chief among his
public gifts being monument to sol
diers of Kenosha county. Attention
is called to this to emphasize the fact
that this petition was conceived not
only in respect and sincerity, but also
in an earnest desire to impress upon
this Legislature the sentiment of the
leading citizens of Kenosha regard
ing this senate bill No. 13 S."
The bill to provide for the memorial
is receiving the support of many of
the leading members of the senate
and assembly and it is thought that
the bill will be passed. It is prob
able that the legislature will not see
its way clear to appropriate the full
500, 900, bat it is pretty certain that
an appropriation large enough to
build suitable memorial at Vicks-
burg will be made.

Displace Famous Oak by Statue.
Editor The Washington Herald
The rude vandalism Of some thought
less power IN trying to place the site OF
the great Grant statue on the eastern
front of the National Botanic Gardens,
swampy and sewer ground, and now oc-
cupied by the Crittenden oak. the Beck
and Shepherd elm. and forty other his
torical trees. shocks the hearts and souls
of patriotic people. not only in Washing
ton. but all over the nation.
An individual or government without
poetic and patriotic sentiment is as use
less and lifeless as a corpse without a
soul.
The glory of this republic IS not par
ticularly in the triumph OF its army and
navy. but in the soul sentiment and love
for the beautiful Of the common people,
who are the everlasting bulwark OF hon
est, truth. and patriotism.
The proper and original spot selected
for the erection of the Grant statue was
located in the White Lot. just south OF
the Executive Mansion. and In line, east
and west with the Sherman statue, south
Of the Treasury Department the great
Union commando and his brave. bril-

distance on Pennsylvania avenue.
And when practical Speaker Cannon,
Father Allison, of the Senate. and Gen
