Graduating from a small Ohio col

indianapolis. He was not admitted to
the bar until after his marriage, and

TO high and prosperous rank in the
practice of law.
The only political Office Harrison
ever held before his election to the
| presidency was seat in the senate.
Defeated for reelection to that body
in the year before he was elected pres
ident he lest Washington with no
! thought that he would soon return rs
president-elect, and he frankly de-
scribed himself as ~ dead duck"
The only candidate that the rank
and file of the Republicans wanted to
nominate in 1883 was Blaine. But he
was not well, and he refused to make
a contest for the nomination. At last
he cabled from Scotland: "Take Har-
risOn." And the convention indiffer-
emily took him.
The more notable events of the Har-
rison administration-the Mckinley
tariff act the silver act, which more
than doubled the purchase of that
law on the subject of trusts: the de-
pendent pension act, and the first Pan
American cOngress-hardly belong in
this little story, because none of them
originated with the president himself.
He did not rise TO leadership, and con-
gress took the reins. All the while he
sat in the White House In cold aloof-
ness.
With the cry of God help the sur
plus ~ the Republicans gave the coun-
try in Harrison's administration the
first 'billion-dollar congress-" the APP
for the two-year term ris-
ing to that unprecedented total. To
the popular protest Speaker Reed re-
torted: This is a billion-dollar coun-
Try" But the country did not feel rich
enough to pay the higher tariff rates !
IF the Mckinley act.
That law was passed only seven |
weeks before the congressional cleo |
ions i'm 1890. OF course anyone who |
rad anything to sell seized upon the
'xcuse to mark up prices. The "shop-
ling women" rose in their fury at the
higher cost of living, and the voters

n the house.
That was the forerunner of still
reater political overturn in the presi-
entail election in 1892, when Harrison
rent down under a sweeping victory
