on Revolutionary war memorial
What could be done2 Manifestlv the
glory could not be wholly given to
Gates, whose inability almost lost US
the battle; Schuyler and Morgan
never claimed the chief credit. What
then? l have often looked on the Rev
dictionary monuments at Lexington,
Concord, Bunker Hill and Benning-
ton and they stir my heart; but that
on the Saratoga battlefield 1t has
four-square base with niche on
each side for life-size figure; three
OF them are occupied. Gates in one
Schuyler in another and Morgan in
the third: but the fourth niche is
empty! No other memorial of that
day thrills me as that empty niche on
the Saratoga battlefield. Arnolds
name is not mentioned; vet he is
COMMUNICATED in more than one way;
and while we look at it, and as Long
fellows says: "Our hearts like muf
fled drums are beating" we turn away
with sigh.
One of the best histories our Ii
brary possesses is that of James Ford
Rhodes, History of the United States,
lS50-lS77; seven volumes. l consider
the first five volumes among the best
yet written of the period covered from
the repeal of the Missouri compro-
mise to the close of the Civil war.
But his work regarding the recon
struction period is not as satisfactory;
it seems to me that in his effort to be
judicial and fair he, as the saying is.
sometimes leans over backward He
had brother in the Federal army, and
for some reason was in some parts of
the southern states several times be-
tween 1865 and 1877, and frequently
refers to his brothers diary and tells
what he saw himself, and not of much
Importance The friends of General
Grant will think he is too severe in
his condemnation Of his presidential
administration; he had many doubtful
friends and bad advisors: and Rhodes
condemnation is severe and sweep
ing.
Some Strange Things
But he is always interesting. He
is too near the events to be wholly
impartial. Take one example: In his
sixth volume he records how Secre
tary of State Seward purchased Alas
ka from Russia, and commends il
and then relates how Seward seemed
possessed with passion to annex
all the West India islands then in the
market, and particularly mentions
that in 1867 he negotiated with Den
mark for the purchase of the Virgin
Islands for seven and half million
dollars, and ridicules that attempted
purchase of hurricane swept islands
that could be of no possible yalue. All
'' So'iiae iuSSily HOW Wnen we
have recently paid twenty millions
for them, and consider it good bar
gain. Probably if it had not been for
the World War Germany would have
prevented our getting them at any
price. That one incident shows that
he was too near in time to the events
to be able to write judcia1ly of all of
them.
There in one great history, recently
written. which our library does not
possess, although the Free Travelling
library of our Idaho Educational de-
partment has it. 1t is The American
Revolution, by George Otto Trev-

umes. The author is the nephew of
Lord Macaulay, and held an impor
