To the Editor of the Star:—I gee there is to be & meeting on the subject of the Sumner status to-night at the 15th street Preabyterian Charch. Would it not be well for your readers who may attend that eo carry with them a tew considerations which may ‘aid in reaching a sp:2dy and unanimous agreement as to how the money is to be raised and who shall expend it. 4s it is mere assumption to form a so-called natior 11 committee, { propose @ plan comewhat as follows: Let évery church, society, and school in the District of Columbia agree to establish a Sumner me. - 4 let the fond be deposited in some bs . u's elty to the credit of the society depositing it; let it be in- accessable to every one except the presidant, the secretary, together with the treasurer of the organization, and prevent them .o draw the money only when it shall be evident that the united societies of the District shall hav: depesited in bank one thousant. dollars, which one thousand dollata sha'! catitle the District or Columbia to one trustee of the S~ -= onument trast; provided tuat an ~ . «tonal trustee shall be allowed for every additional thousand dollars contributed by the District. Other cities are already acting on this plan, and in agreement with them. Let a time be eet, say within tweive months, for the ve iovs trustees throughout Union to meet, and let them form a board of trust to decide what kind of a monnment shall be bulit, where it shall be located, and who shall be the officers under whicn the trust will be administered; provided none but trustees representing one thousand Jollars shall be etigibie t> office ou the board of trast. Let it be agreed that money may be withdrawn trom bank in the interest of the contributors by the officers above desig- nat-d, to be uced as the organizations gee fit, in care the trustees fail to meet with'n one year. Experience io the FineslIn monument enter- prise suggests these autiors, for in that prgo sums of money were collected and used b: private fudividua!s for their own benefit. Wit *he mrecautiors indicated we may sacce 4; w.th at them we will fail.
