The rector OF the church. the Rev. Charles w.

the edifice, penned the following:

Since the organization of Logan co,

Since the organization of Logan coun
ty in 1919 the county has sent only foul
representatives to the Congress of the
United States. During that time Log.
an has been districted at various
times with the counties of Clarke,
Champaign, Union, Delaware, Mad
lson, Pickaway, Hancock, Hardin, Shell
by, Miami and Marion. The districts
were changed from time to time by
reason OF new apportionments and oc-
casionally for political purposes. The
first congressman from Logan was
Richard s. Candy, lawyer. He was
chosen in 1876. served one term and de-
clined a second.
Benjamin Stanton was the second
congressman from Logan. In October,
1869, he was chosen congressman and
was reelected in 1854. '56 and '5S. In
1892 he was chosen lieutenant COVER
nor Of Ohio.
Judge William Lawrence was next
elected to Congress and he served with
great distinction for twelve years. In
1878 he was appointed first comptroller
of the u. s. treasury and served till
Cleveland's administration.
General r. P. Kennedy resigned the
Office of Lieutenant Governor of Ohio
in 1887 to take his seat as a member of
the Fiftieth Congress. he was re-
elected in the fall of 1886. In 1889 he
was appointed member of the Insular
Commission to visit Cuba and Porto
Rico and assisted in formulating q
code of laws for Porto Rico.
The above named are the only rep
resentatives Logan ever had in con-
gress.

It WA acknowledged from the very
first that Willis and Dow were the
strongest men IN the Findlsy conven-
tion- On Wednesday Champaign coun-
~ delegates realizing that Judge War
mock could not win, secretly agreed
among themselves to throw the nomin-
alton to some other place. They con-
suited with Willis and Dow men as to
which was tie stronger Of these two
candidates 1t was agreed according
to report. among these three counties
that Willis should have the first chance
Of nomination Delaware and Cham
paign county agreed to support Willis
With these delegates he still lacked six
votes to secure an election Willis was
given hours to secure these votes
out of Union, Logan and Hancock on
condition that at the end of the six
hours he would consider q proposition
to come TO Judge Dow. The six hours
expired and he returned TO ask for an
other six hours. This was ON Wednes-
day morning. Willis also wanted the
support of these counties for five bal
lots hoping by that time to be able to
secure the necessary votes from else
where in the district. Mr.. Willis
was 30 confident that he oould secure
ootside strength that he refused to
come to the aid of Judge Dow, al
though 1t Is understood that upon sew
eral occasions he was ON the verge of
making such an agreement Cham
paign county, which wanted to go for
Judge Dow, grew tired of waiting and
compromised with Hancock county.
When Willis learned of this move he
hurried to Judge Dow's support but it
was too late. II is fact to be regret
ted that two such good men as Willis
and Dow had to fall because an agree
ment could not be reached without so
much parleying.
Judge Dow has made many friends
in the Eighth District He is today
probably as strong politically as any
man in the six counties Citizens of
Findlay by the score called at his head
quarters to congratulate him upon the
clean campaign he hsd.conducted. He
has always been popular in Hancock
county for his fairness on the bench
and nsxt to their own candidate, Mr.
Cole, il il certain that Hancock coun-
ty citizens were in favor of Logan
eounty's choice.
