The Alliance Standard Review says:
"The Eighteenth District may we'll feel
proud of it's representatives in the Ma
tiOnal convention. They were indus
triOus, discreet and always on the right
side of every question that came up for
consideration. Mr.. Morgan, of this
city, was especially active, in season
and out of season, working in the inter
est of his candidate, and seemed never
to weary or grow impatient, no matter
how trying or complicated his duties.
There has never been a delegate from
this district so successful in meeting
the pressing and persistent demand for
tickets as Mr.. NJ, and he came nearer
solving the difficult problem of putting
seven men in six beds, with only n III
each bed, than any man we ever heard
of. When he was short of tickets to
reach around he would quietly go out
on the street and buy a few to help him
out. The Republicans of the Eight
zenith District who received favors OF
this kind, did not know the sacrifices
Mr.. Morgan made to accommodate
them, OF the extent of their obligations
to him.
superintendent Davidson, of the AL
lance schools, has received notification
from the faculty of the Ohio State Uni

ton to the fact that too many pupils
