visit to California has not been productive OF
amity and enthusiasm In the ranks Of the Re-
publican party. There is an aitermnthof un.
comfortable feelings Of many kinds, ranging
from chilled enthusiasm to reveuRefuls anger.
and all the result OF things that the President
or his son either did or didn't do. So many
people were treated with lack Of tact. with ia.

Gov. Markham met the special train Mt thu
State line. but he was not received cordially.
Ho was snubbed and set aside on several
occasions. ms II he were q petty and In.
truding offlciaL This was notably the case at
the Monday night reception, when he was
made to feel his unimportance all the evening
and at supper was not invited to sit with tina
President. 1t had been his desire to accom-.
pnny the President and party with his STAFF
when they left San Francisco and to bid them
Godspeed at the northern end oil tho State. He
intimated his desire TO do this. and waited Tor
somo sign from tho Presidents party that his
escort would be welcome. Blu. 1t did not come.
And there is not more indignant man In the
State than Gov Markham. This promises 70

can party. with the Governor and his friends
on one side and the managers of the reception
committee and their followers on the othor.

Harrison managed 10 hurt one OF the tenderest
feelings OF the whole state-the belief and
pride in California wines. He was urged to
| try a certain brand Of white wine. but refused
to taste 1t. giving as his reason that he never
drank any wine except champagne. The viii.
cultural interests OF the State have been stand
ing oRhast ever since that evening.
Mr.. Harrison succeeded also in dumfound.

formed him about the banquet His reply was
that he disliked banquets. and that they sl.
ways bored him. When told that all,ths
preparations had been made for this that he
would meet there many OF the merch &n tn ofthS
city. and that they were expecting to hear 3
speech from him. he said that he wanted tho
affair hurried through aB rapidly as possible,
Just how many rled and unforgiving In.
dspians there are in various part OF the State

several hopeful Hoosiers were always waiting
to shake the Presidential hand and to inform
its owner that they knew him back In IN

But. somehow. his memory was never good
as theirs. and he never seemed enthusiasticSl-
ly glad to SEQ them. 80
