The following letters are further
evidence that Mr.. Morgan has the
confidence of all in his official, az
well as private life, and that ever
those who are closely connected with
the movements Of the Federation are
not willing that any suspicion should
rest upon him:
AClluS DiSC. Attorney.
Vaudeville, Aug. II, 1912.
Editor Of the New Orleans Item.
MY Dear Sir:-Referring to an
article in to-day's Item, commenting
on some resolutions of the Catholic
WomAn's Societies, the manner OF
the comment would seem to reflect
on the official character and the COM
petenfy of Mr.. Lewis l.. Morgan, our
District Attorney.
AS b matter of fact he Is one of
the most efficient and painstaking
Distrift Attorneys in this State. l
assume this to be a fact from the
comparative lack of lawlessness in
this ptrish. The offense particular
~ complained Of emanates fromtw0
or three barrooms that had been con-
Quoted in an Objectionable manner,
and complaint of which had been
made to the local authorities who
seemed to take no notice of it. Up
on complaint of this society to Mr..
Aorgan's office, his assistant i'm
mediately opened correspondence and
oet on foot proceedings to correct
those abuses
! write this in order to prevent any
possible Injustice to Mr.. Morgan,
which might be construed from the
statement appearing in your paper
this morning.
