conflict the country has emerged with glory, and in that war name after name has been added to the list of our he- roes. As had been said by one of our gifted statesmen, it was grand thing to be an American citizen. It has been shown that peace hath her victories as we'll as war, and our country now stands eminent in grandeur and mo- bility of power. We take pride in the achievements of those grand naval heroes, Dewey and Hobson We have a grand future before us, one that is full of responsibility. There are many important questions to be settled in the next two years, and the attitude of the state of Connecticut will be set tied by the men that we shall to-day nominate in this convention. We ap- prove of the sentiment that was so ably uttered by the chairman of this conven- tien that national issues must enter into and form part of the proceedings of this convention The state of Con- necticut is full of issues on this topic. And it is time for young men to come to the front, and I long for the time when l can vote for young man to take the lead in the management of af- fairs in this commonwealth. We want man who has the courage of youth, (applause from the gallery) man who is young enough to be active in the well fare of the state and at the same time old enough to have acquired experience and judgment in dealing with impor- tan: public issues.
 I can remember the time in the year 1866 when that braveman and peerless statesman, Joseph R. Hawley, took the charge of affairs in the executive chair of the state. He was then about forty years of age and his administration was nobly successful. We remember also Ingersoll and Andrews and Hubbard. The work of those men stood for some thing They were not placed there be-
 cause they wanted the office, but they were called there because the people demanded that they fill the office. This is a time when the office should seek the man and not the man the office. I present for the consideration of this convention an ideal candidate a man who is young enough to sympathize with the voters in every stage of action and one who is old enough to adminis- ter executive affairs with honor and discretion. I present to you as such candidate for gubernatorial honors, the name of John Addison Porter of Hart ford. Applause in the galleries and by one enthusiastic individual in the body of the house.) He was born in New Haven and a grand and splendid city she is, too, remarkable for her grand old college and for her business facili-

the nineteenth century in the full flow CT and glory of republican principles and to feel the true majesty and power of the American people.
 It is grand to be a member of the party which has led this people in mag nificent steps from the old to the new.
 It is grand to know that the story of the "good Samaritan" has been incor- porated into our national life.
 It is grand to be a citizen of the old Commonwealth of Connecticut and to feel pride in her history and achieve ments. She had the first written con- stitution known to the world, and on her soil democracy found it's first voice. Her system of government was grafted on the old confederation, and gave form to the constitution of the United States. When we consider what this constitu- ton means to liberty and the world, we may be justly proud that it's warp and wool came from the constitution of Connecticut. She is small in area but large in capacity. Her soil may be poor, but she is rich in men and women. History shows that her representatives in congress, and her governors have been, generally, men of special fitness. The reason for this may be found in the fact that the office has sought the man and not the man the office Thus we have been represented by men who have sought to do something for the people, and not by men who sought to have the people do something for them. This marks the difference between the politician and the statesman.
 
 We are here from all parts of the state. as representative of the republi- can party, to register the wishes of our constituents in nominating a candidate for governor.
 They want us to nominate a man wise enough and broad enough to com

eess other remarkable parallel charac-
teristics besides that of being alive after
having filled the arduous position of
president of the United States. Both
have married young women when them
selves well along in life, and both are
now, when in their golden age, cheered
by the presence Of young children in the
household.
The cartoons of Benjamin Harrison
bending over bundle of white dimity
and needlework and the sketches OF
Grover Cleveland with four babies on
his knees were no caricatures, and the
country has the unprecedented spectacle
of two Of it's former presidents busily
and happily engaged in rocking the
cradle.
Benjamin Harrison was married the
Rrst time to Miss Carrie Scott in the
pear 1854. Two children blessed their
nnion, Russell Harrison, now we'll known
IN literary and legal matters, and Mrs
Mckee, mother of Baby Mckee
During Mr.. Harrison's term in the
White House from 1883 to 1892. BABY
Mckee was national feature. A re-
porter, going there upon friendly mis-
lion for Republican newspaper, came
back complaining: "He wouldn't talk
Lbout anything but Baby Mckee"
When Mrs. Harrison died in the White
House in 1892 none SO careful in attend
lnce upon her as Mrs. Mary Dimmick,
her young niece, widow, amiable and
repossessing. And after Mrs. Harri-

only the cabinet ladies of that admin
1stration to tell of it.
When Mr.. Clevelands term expired he
moved to New York, and then began
that which his soul had always craved
the raising of little family to grace
his hearthstone. Four children were
born to him-Ruth, in Madison avenue
New York, and afterwards Esther, in
the White House. Marion arrived at
Gray Gables in September, and a few
weeks ago Richard Folsom Cleveland
was welcomed at Princeton, where the
ex-president now lives.
Both of these singularly fortunate ex-
presidents are following the law and
both are earning big sums by it, Both,
while ''out of public life" are actively
interested in politics, and neither acts
like man ION the shelf"
To France, Uruguay, Mexico and
other republics it looks strange that a
president. after a term of office, can go
back to private life contentedly but in
England 1t is the most natural thing
in the world; and Queen Victoria
voiced it when she said: Your presi-
dent is like our premier-willing to bear
the burden while he must, but never
loath to give his scepter to the next one
EX-President Harrison, in his retire
ment, occupies very handsome resi-
dence in indianapolis. Summers he
rests in the mountains with his wife and
baby. He spends his days and nights at
home, doing most of his law work in

sistance than his own hands, he has al-

and not far from the famous Contention

and that ere long he will strike that
ledge and jump in a moment from al
