IT will be pleasure to tho Republicans of
Indiana to know that the name of General
Harrison will be presented to the Chicago
convention by Hon. Albert q. Porter. Gen
eral Harrison and Governor Porter wero for
mer law partners, and have been associated
in personal and political friendship for many
years. That the Governor will discharge the
delicate and important service in manner to
add dignity and influence to the candidacy
of General Harrison goes with the saying.
No more fitting mouthpiece for the Repub-
ican party of the State could have been
named, nor one whose sense of political and
personal honor would be surer guarantee of
words fifty spoken. tits coincidence worth
noting that in 1864 Governor Porter placed
Mr.. Harrison in nomination for the Office Of
Reporter of the Supreme Court, and
also in 1876, when the Republican
State committee drafted General Harrison into
the campaign, the Governor was the spokes-
man for the citizens of indianapolis in well
coming the General to his home and urging
him to accept that call to duty. 1t is under
stood that General Harrison desired to have
the Governor speak for him and for the State be-
fore the Chicago convention, and the Govern
or responded to the request in the same frank
and friendly spirit in which it was presented

GEN. D. q. HASTINGS, of Pennsylvania, one
