Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1877-11-08
Death OF Senator Morton.

On last Thursday Indiana's States
man, Senator o. p. Morton, died.
The event was foreshadowed for
some weeks. yet the full force of his
death fell more heavily than was
anticipated. For sixteen years he
has been the pride and oracle Of the
republican party. And now that he
is dead his political opponents accord
to him the just position to which his
great intellect entitled him. 1t is
useless to say to the readers of The
REPUBLICAN what Senator Morton has
been to our nation. Every soldier
who reads that Morton is dead will
recall the times, when in the
times that tried mems souls he was
the powerful friend who cared for
him and watched over him with most
Jealous care. Every soldiers wife,
parent or relative will call to mind
the time when they looked to him as
the guardian who would care for
those in danger and in peril. And
every heart in the nation recognizes
now more that ever the tried patriot
ism OF the man who believing in our
common nationality strove with
giant power to preserve intact our
Union of States.
Whatever he attempted he entered
into the work with the earnestness
born of conviction that he was in
the right. In his political speeches
he evinced popularity rarely seen
in any politician. His addresses
were not garnished by any flowers Of
Rhetoric nor by vehemence of any
kind; but the gravity and clear logic
OF his speeches won the most careful
attention from all classes. No other
man in the world could have sat and
spoken so as to enchain large audi
ences. The ruffian element in COM
mon with all characters rendered due
respect to the power OF intellect.
And to-day the republican party is
conscious Of a loss Of strength in his
death.
But we need not indulge in gener-
alities. The sketch OF his career
printed in another column gives the
most enduring tribute to the man.
Who springing from the common
people reached fame that few excel.
In his dying hour he could look back
over life well spent, in which there
was much that was for the good Of
his race. and naught against it. He
may have erred. That Is the mis'or-
tune of being human. But as the
distance OF time interyenes we will
without hesitation accord the full
grandeur of his life, which causes all
to be forgotten. We love to do
honor to the memory of Governor
Morton-for by that title he was best
known to the hearts of the people.
Our pen lingers over his name, as
that OF true friend OF humanity
whose memory is to be gratefully
cherished for all time. His life enters
into the history of our nation. and
thus into the world. Henceforth he
belongs to immortality. We speak
his name with reverence. His body
is consigned to the tomb. But over
his grand and useful life. men, OF all
generations to come, will increasingly
do honor.

The Indianapolis Ners says: Gen
eral Mcclellan now denies that n e
ever killed a moth. 1t appears that
he fairly circumvented the moth, had
laid his parallels up to within pistol
shot of his works, and thoroughly and
closely invested it, cut off all avenues
of retreat or supplies, and then, just
as he finally on the point of winning
some Of its most important works,
with "a view TO following the move
ment up with an assault and certain
capture, the provoking moth went
and died with old age.

~. The weather was fOrbidding
but there were thousands in fhe pro-
cession. representing civic. and mill
tary organizations. Special trains
reached the city from all directions
aud probably there has never assem-
bled in the great North West such a
concourse Of people to pay respects
to the memory OF any man. There
was a sermon, eulogy, music, etc.,
and the Odd Fellows performed the
rites of burial, according to the beau
tiful formula of the order.

We do not often erase any item
from our county correspondence, but
we wish our itemizers to be very
careful in making up their items. 1t
is not matter of news to make an
insinuation that may be understood,
and may not, bya single person other
than the one to whom it applies.
Gossip is not always news, because it
may not be the truth. No cores
pendent should spin out items simply
for the sake OF making lengthy cor
respondence. Let every item be
pointed and as brief as possible, and
in the end you will be proud of your
own productions. As a general thing
the weather, but il a severe storm
takes place give full particulars as to
its progress, and damage to different
persons. If sickness is prevalent
give the names of those most danger
Gus, and full particulars. II any ac-
cident occurs give full particulars.
1t is not enough to say that an acct
dent has taken place, but you should
tell how it occurred, and the result
particularly. The same OF any such
thing as murder, etc. One fruitful
class Of items is mention OF neigh
borhood improvements. II any one
builds barn, or house, or puts up a
windmill state it. Or if any par
ticular farmer has large crops give
that fact. Keep your eyes open, and
you will have no lack OF really inter-
esting items. And you may mix a
little gossip, IL you find it matter
OF neighborhood interest.
