INDIANAPOLIS.
News. An excellent speaker, close
and careful reasoner, and a forcible
writer, there was no cause that he
championed that was not sire r.thened
by his advocacy. His integrity was
above reproach, and that sort Of in
like to see it. Though not of recent
years occupying position of import
ance or prominence, the loss of the in
fluence of every honest, good and brave
man is something to be deplored. So it
is that Mr.. Morton's death will be
mourned by many people who knew
him only through the work that he did.

Capitol. He was endowed by nature
to play conspicuous part in the arena
of human activity and this destiny he
creditably fulfilled. In the death of
Mr. Morton, the state of Nebraska loses
distinguished son, and the nation a
citizen who believed in the integrity of
her institutions and was ever proud to
do his share in contributing to her well
fare.
Leader He was the founder of Ar
Dor Day, the holiday which has already
done so much good. April 22nd, his
birthday has been selected for general
tree planting, and thus through coming
years Mr.. Morton is to be one of the
few Americans whose birthday will be
regularly observed.
