Bronze Lions on Grant Memorial In Washington Arouse Criticism

This, is one of the four bronze lions on the Grant Memorial being erected in Washington that are said to be copies of those on the Nelson monument in Trafalgar square, London. Each of the lions is couchant upon a flag that Is supposed to be the Stars and Stripes. The design has caused much comment and some objection has been made to its adoption.
