SOLDIERS' AND SAILORS' MONUMENT, INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA.

The above beautiful monument was erected by the State of Indiana. State appropriations have been made from time to time for the past ten or more years. It is now completed and will stand for all time as the proudest act of that great state, "to Indiana's silent victors."

Kansas proposes to erect a similar monument if the wishes of her patriotic citizens are realized.
