HANSON, long before he was named for the Pre-.
sidency, and in times which ought TO give them
weight sufficient to bear down all the petty calum

We begin with the Testimony OF Col. RICHARD
NJ JoHxsoS, now Vice President of the United
States.
Col. Johnson said, lin Congress)-
"Who is Gen. Harrison The OfUne Of the
signers of the Declaration Of Independence who
spent the greater part Of his large fortune in redeem
ING the pledge he then gave, of his fortune life and
sacred honor to secure the liberties of his coun
try.
..Of the career of Gen. Harrison | need not
.peak-the history of the West, is his history.
For forty years he has been identified with its in
terests, its perls and its hopes. Universally be-
loved in the walks Of peace, and distinguished by
his ability in the councils of his country, he has
been yet more illuStTiously distinguished IN the
field.
During the late war, he longer in nctiye
service than any other General officer he per-
haps, oftener in action than any one OF them, and
never sustained defeat"
JAMES MANSON, in special message to Con
gress, Dec. 10, 1911, said,
While 1t is deeply lamened that many vau-
,hl Eva LayD hppn lost in The action which took

lrnishea their commander on an occasion requiring
The utmost ereytions Of rdlour and discipline.

the addition of few regulars under the command
Of Brigadier Gen. HARRISON, possesses the entire
confidence of his fellow soldiers, among whom are
citizens, some of them volunteers in the ranks, not
less distinguished by their political stations than By
their. personal merits.
