Grant Memorials and Monuments Suggested by Republican Views
The Springfield Republican urges restrained monuments for General Grant with a few worthy statues. Ohio commemorates his birthplace with a memorial house, Illinois may erect a grand edifice and possibly donate a statue to the national hall of statuary, while Washington should host an outdoor monument. It contrasts Grant honors with Lincoln’s lacking monuments.

Grant burial in the National Capital urged by the nation
Washington letters argue General Grant should be buried in or near the nation’s capital as a symbol of national unity. The writer supports no postmortem exam and condemns unnecessary public scrutiny of his remains, urging civil servants be treated as officers and gentlemen amid summer leave debates. The piece also notes English snobbery toward Americans and a preference for Opera Puffs cigarettes.
