Of McCook, Ntbraska.
Tho pioudcBt boabt of American civ
ilizution is that every boy, no matter
how lowly born, may nspiro to tho
highest ofllco in tho gift of tho people
Tho opportunity of bettering olio's
condition is always upon to tho hustler,
and there aro nhVuys hustlers who ro
fuse to submit to limited environments
and roach out nftor higher and bottor
things than those which surround
them. Whilo thoro aro always thoso
who onvy tho ma who risos in the
woild by dint of his own unaided ef
forts and seek to bolittlo him, a vast
majority of tho people honor thoao who
do thus riso. For that roason avast
majority of thoso who know Webster
S. Morion houor him bocauso ho has
made his wav upwards in tho faco of
discouragements; because ho has ovor
onmo obstacles that havo dnuntrd
othor mon, and becauso ho hns vindi
catod Uio American boast that birth
and position cannot welgJi ngalnst de
termination, ability and grit.
Webster S. Morlan was born on p
arm in Crawford county, Ohio. When
bo was six years old his Quaker paroatB
moved to Iowa, and again sottled on a
farm. Touig Morlan's earliest reeil-
loctions nro ol tho hard and unonding
toll of th iiirmor boy. His opportu
nities for cdu:ation wero much more
limited than thoso of tho farmer boys
of today, but what opportunities did
present Uiomsolves ho mado tho most
of. His early education was suoured
inho district schools of" tho thon
young state of Iowa, and tho education
thus secured by hard struggles and de
privations mado him enger for more
thau could bo seeurod in this wise. Ho
persevered and finally was onnblod to
enter tho Iowa Lutheran college Hero
ho studied for throo years. Iu 180 ho
looked aeross tho Missouri river and
saw in Nebraska hotter openings for
tho young man than csuld bo found iu
inivn nnd in, nonin to Nebraska. Ue
did not wait for something easy to turn
up. Ho weut out aud looked for work.
Day after day ho held tko handles of a
scraper on tho big railroad approach
to tho Burlington's brldgo at Platts
mouth. Whou tho j-ib was completed
ho wont to work in tho harvest llelds
of Nebraska. In tho winter of 1870
und the winter of 1871 ho taught school
in Onwj eouuty. Whilo other young
men worn spending their hours outside
of work in having a "good timo," young
Morlan was titling hlmsolf for some
thing butter than tho holding of
scrnpor handles,. Ills ovoniugj weio
spent in poring ovor law books, ami
whilo teaching school ho pureed hid
law studies with undiminished ardor
Ho was admitted o the bar nnd

hung out his shinKlu nt Oroto. Hut ha
did not remain tlioro long. Ho wont
to Lowell, Nobr., thon ono of tho bus!
ost cities of tho stato and romalncd
thero until ho moved to Arnpahoo. He
prncti-cdlnw in Arnpahoo until 1882,
mooting with splendid success lu his
chtiscn profession. In 1883 tho repub
licans pf tho old BJghth district looked
about for a cnpnblo caudidnto for dis
trict attorney. Tho oilice needed n
capable man in thoso days and tho
choico fell upon Morlan, nnd for four
years ho filled tho olllco with credit to
himsoir and tho satisfaction of tho
pnoplo. Duning all theso years his
fame as a lawyer was growing, and n
1888 ho was offorod and accepted tho
position of attorney for tho wostorn
division in Nebraska of tho Burlington
route. oTho tender of this position
was a testimonial of his ability. Ho
had served his clients well whon nlaw
yor asking for business. Ho had ser
ved tho public woll wkilo sorving ns
tho commonwealth's representative.
Hohassd'vod his client well sinco ho
accepted tho (littering position ton.
dereil him by a corporation which hns
contributed largely to tho growth and
progress of tho great state of Nebrnskn.
It is characteristic of tho man that
ho has always given his Lost ftWHitioa
to his oHeiits. Knowing this tho ro
publicans of the Fifth diitriet tender
ed him tho tioinismtiou for congress,
Tkoy know, and all tko people know
that if elected bo will give bisUmo and
his talonts to tho cnuso of tho peoplo.
Ho could not do otherwise Webster
S. Morlan Is utterly iucnpablo of
doubledeuling. No man stnnds higher
in tho community than ho. No mini's
reputation for honor is bettor than his.
Throughout his wholo professional en
roor thoro has not been ono breath of
suspicion directed toward him.
Mr. Morlan is essentially a man of
tho peoplo. Schooled in tho hard
wouk'of tho fnniior boy and amidst tke
privations of tho pioneer lifo, ho learn
ed to know tho thoughts nnd desires of
the common people Abraham Lin
coin snid, "God must havo loved tho
coinmoB pooplo becnuso ho mado so
mnny of them." Mr. Morlan is one of
tho common pooplo. His success in
lifo is an inspiration to tho boys of
Nobraska. Ho is not a candidate for
oongress bocnuso ho wants to be a oen
grossman, but bocauso his friends want
him to bo a congressman. Thoy know
that if ho is elected ho will roprosont
tho best thought, tho best interostu
and tho bust aspirations of tho pooplo
of this district. Thoy know tht ho
will honor himself by being UH honor
to tho district he reprosonts.
