He is indeed u hero who, with culture, luxury and high. position at oommpnd, aspires yet high”? aid fixeu his eye upon the prize of high chat-octet, noble 93011 and fiendnring service. Emerson aye: “ ‘Whnt has he done,’ in the divine question that name-h ivory pretender. Pre- tenoe may git still in a chair; but Pretenee never wrote the Illiad nor abolished slavery nor christ- ianized the world." ‘ Surely, if~“whut has he done,” he the question of questions, Mr. Lloyd’s recurd will bear the test. His book, “The Strike of the Miliionuirea Against the Miners," published in 1890, has the beginning of Mr. Lloyd's glut battle ngninat‘ the opp'reuion’ the corruption of the” national In1894 appeared his “Wealth W Commonwealth." In it ran the hiutoi'y of the Standard Oil Monopoly and . its = making :pennilauio scores upon scores of ‘brm, honest and upright"men, whose only offence was the pos- mion of oil-lands and the refusal to yield them at a nominal prioe to the “oil octopus}? After this Mr. Lloyd want at his own expense to Europe to study, legislative problem Ind 00; operatige organizatiane. On his rgtnrnlo America he wroté_"‘La- bot (Jo-partnership,” which was mid to be a remarkably compre- hensive account of his woucierful economic movement. At his own expense he went to New Zealand and ”spent months studying democratic idnovations in the “New England of the Southern Ocean.- " ' A On his return he wrote “ vept England” and “A Country ith- out Strikes.” Afterwards Mr. Lloyd went to Germany and studied the rise of pocialiam in the land of the Kaiser. ' Being a man of culture, wealth and _ oohparative lei-are, he the laboring masses and studied the malign influences of commercial hudalism; and cease- crslsd his life to the cause of im- perilled democracy and oppressed labor, attacking fearlessly the daring and powerful criminals who were able to "buy prestige and respectability by bribing the powerful and silencing the voice of justice in the church, the col- lege and state through lavish ex- penditure of ill-gotten gold.” It seems incredible that one man should {mire done ab much in; short life of only fifty-six years. Perhaps the beauty sud" attractiveness of his home life left him more liberty and leisure than falls. to the lot of men hindered by “carping care" or ’doineetio. friction. ‘ : Mr. Lloyd married Miss Jessie ‘Bross, daughter of Gov. Brose, and she was ever his most faith- ful coudjutor in every noble work and kindly impulse. It was She iho made his home the dispenser of'graceful, sympa- theticp‘ntd bepevoleqt helpfulneu. To his spoken and written plea for grcce, mercy and peace. she gave, ready expression in generous hospitalities and benevolentdeeds.‘ As friends of . the family some- times said: “Mr. Lloyd preaches socialism and Mrs. Lloyd prac- tisesit.” He inspired and she executed. ‘ America is fond of' erecting etetuee to military heroes and to men who, like Henry Ward Beecher and Horace Greeley,â€" epeak and write in behalf of the principle: of liberty, equality and justice; but how much more iworthy of a statue, raised by pub- llic subscription, is the man who had courage to attack crime in high placege, and who had fine t philon ropy to lebor in behalf of the o ppreeeed who could offer no bribes for his influence and no compensation for lebor that at lost cost him his life. 011 North Shore Vacant and (unmoved Real Estate.
