Mr.. MORTON'S STRONG CLAIMS.
TO the Edltor OF The Tribune.

SIR: The merits of some of the candidates
for the United senatorshp in this State have
been hitherto presented by their respective friends with
much carneslness and they have been treated In spirit
OF fairness by their opponents. To Mr. Morton tho full
OF justice has not been given. lie has been too
often referred by the friends OF his opponents the
"ayalabo canddate,""t the money candidate, etc., as
II these constituted his chief claims the high honor.
Mr. Morton has qualities which those who know him
best believe calculated 20 render him Of the most
Influential members OF the august body for which he is
candidate He has made his mark high the lists OF
business he has the entire confidence OF
those who control the financial interests of the CONNER
ca metropolis OF this country ne has achieved success
through his patient, perseyerng industry and ability
though occupying high social position, few men
more accessible to all classcs than Levi z. Morton
Mr.. Morton sprang from the people, he hid not secure
wealth by connection with monopolcs or by schemes
which drained the public treasury As Republican he
is without reproach IS Representative in Congress he
was faithful the interests Of the country while
ing with fidelity those OF the Republican party. As
Minister France his popularity and influence have
cured important commercial concessions in favor OF i'm
pOrtaons from this country IL ~ not too much 10 say
that Mr. Mortoss private and public life dedes adverse
criticism In times past he has been what his kind heart
and sympathies will let him be no less IN the
futuro-the equal friend of all factions OF the RepuD'
party.
In the last quarter Of century few II any, have ex-
erci,ed greater influence either Governor of this
Senate. than Edw d. Morgan. Those Who have known
woll both T. d. Morgan and l.. T. Morton will not hesi-
tate that In character, judgment, business
