The Inscription on it. written in Spanish, reads: "Henry Clay, apostle of fraternity between the countries of America and valiant defender of their Independence. The United States of America presents to the United States of Venezuela this statue of Its Illustrious statesman, speaker of the house of representatives, senator and secretary of state." The statue, which was given In return for one of Gen. Simon Iiolivar, the South American champion of Independence, which was unveiled In Central park In New York city In 1021. was formally dedicated by James It. Sheffield, former ambassador to Mexico, head of a distinguished delegation from the United States and the statue was received by President Juan P.autlsta I'erez of Venezuela. This ceremony, which honored the man who has Justly been called "the First and "the Father of was a significant one In the history of the nations of the New World. It was a gesture of friendship on the part of the most powerful of those nations to a weaker nation which has reason to feel grateful to its older sister In the family. For to the Venezuelans the statue, erected In the square in their capital to which they have already given the name of Plaza Henry Clay, means nmre than a mere memento of a great man. To them Henry Clay was a friend, not only a friend In words, but a friend In actions as well and (the new monument will he a constant reminder of that fact and of the International good will which prompted the presentation of it to their country. As early as lSifi Henry Clay besan his campaign In the house of representatives in support of the colonies of Spain, then In revolt. Clay In his capacity as speaker, reasoning that the United States might have openly "to. take part with the patriots of South America," opposed the reduction of taxes Incident to the War of 1S12. and a year later likewise opposed a bill Intending to stop the fitting out of war vessels In United States ports, maintaining that such n bill might be detrimental to the Interests of South Americans who were still struggling for freedom. In 1S17 he offered a proposal to authorize a salary for a minister to the provinces of the Rio de la Plata. In March. ISIS. Clay made the speech which is still gratefully remembered by the South Americans. Like all of Clay's orations. It was stirring; It was the first plea voiced for recognition of the countries then shaking oT the grasp of of the countries shaking off the grnsp of Spain. Alone In the house of representatives he thundered .and pleaded sympathy for "the 18 millions of people, struggling to burst their chains and be free." This speech gained for the United States generally and Henry Clay In particular tunny friends among the South. American countries, who were destined to Increase when. In 1S'(, Clay Introduced a motion Into the house of representatives to Inaugurate diplomatic intercourse with "any of the governments of South America which have established and are maintaining their Independence of Spain." The next year, an tfie result of a resolution he supported. President Monroe sent a special message to congress and a resolution to establish Intercourse with the South American nations. When Clay became secretary of state In 182., Ms real in promoting friendship between the republics of North and South America became apparent almost immediately. He has been hailed as "The Father of because of the steps which ha took to encourage the success of the congress at Panama In 1820. which convened at the call of Simon P.olivar. The United State was not In the first list of countries, but at Clay's suggestion this c untry later was Included. The Invitation gave Clay an opportunity to prepare Instructions to the United Slates delegation, which In every feature seemed to accord with the principles which have governed the movement of recent years. One of the facts about Clay's Influence upon . n rJ? J?A vi 3 A'-- ' v -- f 1 ff t V i ,1' 'A :s It::' P ft tta r ' ''J'i 21 "sms.1 itM . our International policy which Is not commonly known to most Americans Is in regard to the "Monroe Doctrine." The principles enunciated in that famous document Clay forecast in an address at Lexington, Ky., In July, 1S21. He had been pleading the cause of the South American patriots with brilliance and fervor in.ton- gress, which was more or less Indifferent to It. Slowly, however, public opinion was won over and when finally in 1S22 the purchase of Florida was ratified, I 'resident Monree began to recognize the new republics. The next year the President uttered the words which have since been famous as the "Monroe Doctrine," although thvy might more Justly be called the "Clay Doctrine." for bad not Henry (.lay prepared the way for them and contributed Ideas to the formulation of the doctrine, they might never have been tittered. Clay's last work, as secretary of state great In 1S25, was to organize European Influence, particularly that of Russia, to prevail upon Spain to discontinue the war against her former colonies. The story of this man who was honored In the South American capital as a figure of International Importance Is one of the most romantic in American history. Although he Is usually regard- , ed us n Keutuckian. Clay Is another example of a gift to the nation by the Old Dominion, for he was born In "the Slashes" district (hence his pop. lilar nickname of "Mill Hoy of the Slashes") of Hanover 'enmity on April 12. 1777 Having received but meager schooling, young Clay was offered the post of clerk of the Virginia high court of chancery. There he mnde the most of bis opportunity to study law, being admitted to the bar In 17!i7. At about this time he eml grated to Kentucky. It was not long before he took an Interest In current affairs. In the question of slavery. In particular. His articles and speeches thrust him before the public repeatedly. "Half educated," as John Qtilney Adams put If. Clay possessed all that eloquence and gayness of spirit that leads to popularity. I'efore I'lay was thirty In violation of constitutional ruling, apparently unnoticed he was In the United term. , States senate, filling out an unexpired that he had served In the Kentucky legis 4alure. The real beginning of his long political career was In 1811. when nominated speaker of the house of representatives. His first oratorical efforts. contrasting with the compromising and pacifying nature of his support In later years, were directed against Oreat P.rltain, firmly opposing trade restrictions and the Impressment of American sea men. This attitude found ready response and the War of 1S12 was the result. Clay's voice did much to fire the powder train which resulted In near disaster for the United States. After a time of embarrassing reverses for American ambitions. Great P.rltain finally entered Into negotiations for pence. Clay, with Adams and Albert Gallatin, was sent to Ghent by President d . Dr. W. B. Caldwell's SYRUP PEPSIN Madison to make the best of a' sorry situation. Kngland, It appeared, wanted territorial concessions, and Clay alone among the commissioners maintained a bold front. His unwillingness to give In undoubtedly would have resulted in nothing had not Kngland become more concerned in European affairs than America. Pence at almost any price was desirable and a treaty was .finally signed which restored things just about as they bad been at the beginning of hostilities, (.'lay was dissatisfied, for nothing was stipulated about the sailors the war had been fought over, but hu signed. In the years that followed Clay rose. to the heights as a statesman and a leader ic a day when there were such giants as Wehster and Calhoun at hand to guide the destinies of the nation, although the greatest honor and the one. for which he wished most ardently was denied him. He tried three times for the Presidency and failed every time, i'.ut his name has come down to us as one of the greatest men who ever sat speaker's chair in the house of representatives or lifted up his voice In debate In the senate and It Is Inextricably linked with some of the vital Issues which played a part In the making ot the nation. One of them was the "'FjUrifT of Abominations," which so stirred strife between North and South that the Union was actually endangered. In the end, it was be who stretched out a hand to bis long-timpolitical opponent. Calhoun, so that a compromise was effected. Later Clay who, by bis tact. Judgment and patience, was a very prince of peacemakers, brought about the compromise of 1S.r0 between the slave states and the free states, and but for his untimely death In 1S"2 the history of the Civil war period might have been written differently. Closely connected with the name of Henry Clay In the story of is the name of Gen. Simon P.olivar. called "the Liberator" and "the George Washington of South America." Within a week after the Venezuelans had gathered In their capital to honor the memory of the North American, they were paying honors to a South American even dearer In their memory. The Clay statue was unveiled on December 1), 1!).'!0, nnd on December 17 there was celebrated, not only In Caracas, but In many other capitals throughout the world, ceremonies marking the hundredth, anniversary of the death of Iiolivar, the man whom history has written down as both a soldier and a statesman and the founder of five South American republics. P.orn In Caracas In 17S.1, the scion of a wealthy and Influential family, he had the opportunity as a' youth to travel extensively In Europe nnd to study law In Madrid. On one of his trips he stopped off In the United States, where he saw the spectacle of republican Institutions newly set In motion. Then nnd there he resolved to go home and free his countrymen from the Spanish yoke. He first associated himself with a secret organization of patriots In Venezuela, going as their envoy Jo London In the effort to gain P.ritlsh support. To tell the story of Pollvnr would require a full volume and necessitate the liberal use of an' atlas to follow all the movements of bis busy life.

Bolivar entered the city of Caracas as conqueror, belpg hailed as liberator nnd accorded absolute dictatorship In matters military and civil. m the heels of that came more victories, more defeats. Eventually be had to resign his dictatorship In 182!) and when he died the next year, he was In poverty and a refugee from the land which he struggled so hard to save.
