THE PEACE MONUMENT.
(To the Editor.) Sir, —It is evident your various correspondents are averse to the Harbour Board's suggested extravagance in offering the dock site. The turn this question has taken does not oy any means denote peace. Mr. Parr, in the first instance, applauded the Harbour Board for adopting his town-planning scheme in reference to the valuable dock site, and when criticism is against it, he lands on Observation Hill, with a museum to exhibit modern mechanical tortures of warfare. Unfortunately, we will have too many victims of these appliances, and it behoves this city to at once erect a home for the lads who arc permanently suffering for our freedom. —I am, etc., P. VIRTUE.
