General Harrison's Candidacy.

70 tho Editor Of the indianapolis journal.
There is no mistake in assuming that the
candidacy Of Gen. Ben Harrison will bring the
Republicans in limo OF battle in the campaign
before US with more enthusiasm than any man
now before the party for nomination by the
Chicago convention.
1t cannot have escaped the observation of the
people that he has by some cause infused into
his friends devotion to him that 10 surprisingly
wonderful. The mention of his name az can.
ddate is the signal for uproarious approval
showing that he has place in the affections of
the people with a warmth of feeling not often
manifested Your correspondent remembers
the campaign of 1910. He went from Cincinnati
to Dayton with the crowd that accompanied
Gen. William Henry Harrison to the great log
cabin meeting at that city. The people were
never so excited on politics as they then were.
The whole route was thronged by people wav
ing handkerchiefs, and hurrahs for Harrison
were deafening canoes forty feet long mounted
upon wagons drawn by eight or ten horses or
oxen, log cabins and pet 'coons, with other de-
vices too numerous to mention. 1t was almost
impossible for the General TO get through the
crowds by the wayside Men would risk their
lives to get to shake hands or even see the hero
of Tippecanoe. The cause of this wae mostly
due to the same personal magnetism which
makes his grandson very inspiring personal
presence. This will, without question, bring TO
tho Republican party such work for success as
has not been often witnessed.
Give Indiana Ben Harrison, and the Repub
licans Of the State will 60 to work to carry the
State by majority that will carry 1t beyond
tho limits of doubtful State forever. Other
States have been wakened up TO ths fact that
Ben Harrison can rekindle the old fire that
burned out the Democratic party under the
leadership of his illustrous erandsire. Hurrah
for Gen. Ben Harrison. brave soldier. q dis
tinguished attorney, Christian gentleman and
a beloved citizen. J. w. II.
