A Fitting Memorial.

Rarely has Congress had the oppor-
tunity TO endow a worthier project than
that presented to it by the joint resolu-
ton introduced by Senator Root, of
New York, and Representative Slayden,
OF Texas This proposal is for the es-
Enlistment of memorial to the loyal
women of the civil war 1t has been put
into concrete form by the generosity
and patriotism of the commandery of
the State of New York of the Military
Order of the Loyal Legion of the United
States.
The commandery has pledged itself
to procure and to give the sum of
100000. on condition that Congress ap-
propriate an equal amount as con-
tribution of the United States toward
the purchase OF suitable site in the
city of Washington and toward the cost
of erection. The Red Gross will agree
TO procure an endowment fund, the in
come of which will be sufficient to main
tain the memorial for all time.
All that remains is for Congress to
set its seal of approval on the project.
There is little doubt that this will be
given Appealing as it does to all that
is sacred to the American heart. the prof.
eet must appeal to the people OF the
nation as one worthy of the most fer
vent support
