The article recalls how the Statue of Liberty was financed without federal funds, funded by French donors and a U.S. pedestal drive led by Joseph Pulitzer. It notes 180 French cities raised 250000 francs and U.S. supporters contributed 125000 dollars, with 100000 raised from 120000 individuals, culminating in the 1886 torch lighting and Cleveland's dedicatory speech.
