NEW YORK. May 1.-THE Herald recently
addressed from here four questions to the
governors of various states in regard to the
tariff, civil service reform, and other politi-
cal matters The following is the answer of
Governor Porter, of Indiana, in full:
81. The tariff will, think, be very lead
ing issue. Civil service reform will not be
nearly as leading an issue as think it should
be. The importance of reform has, regret
to say, not taken as deep hold on the general
public as might have been expected.
% have heard little said about the mat
ter, but think the number who would favor
the abolition of internal revenue taxation is
very small The taxation of liquors and to-
bacco as means of raising United States
revenue is generally popular.
80 what course, in your opinion, must the
Republican party pursue to insure success
next Novemberr 1t must show itself in
sympathy with the best aspirations of the
people.
a. Have you any choice, OF do you know
the choice of any considerable number OF
your constituents for the presidency Pub
lie sentiment in the Republican party in this
state is, think, less settled in favor Of any
particular person than it has ever been at a
period so near the nomination. There are nc
divisions In the party in this state. There is
prevalent feeling that the national conven-
ton will act wisely, and general READINGS:

hard work whoever shall he nominated.

1t is estimated that 10000 people were col
