History gives but a passing glance at the one president whose predecessor became his successor, who had to give up the presidential chair to the man he took It from. " Although' Harrison had more brains than Cleveland, Cleveland had a larger nature, and that la what counts most In the leadership of men. Notwithstanding Benjamin Harrison was the grandson of a president, in whose house he was born, his father was poor and the boy was brought up plainly. - Giariuatlng small Ohio col lege, Harrison married at twenty the girl to whom he engaged himself at eighteen, and they went to housekeeping hi a little three-roocottage In Indiauapolls. He was not admitted to the har until after his marriage, and the first money he ever made was asj a court crier at $2.50 a day. Later on he helped out his lean practice with his salary as clerk of the supreme court of the state. Then came the Civil war, in- - which he aerved gallantly s a colonel and marched with Sher- - ' 1ms stepped so the from obscurity-t- o presidency ns Grover Cleveland. When Garfii Id stood on the steps of the' cap Itol to be Inaugurated he never had heard the, name of this Buffalo attorney. who was to stand In the tame place four years afterward. Cleveland remained unAt forty-fiv- e known outaldejls county,. At forty seven he was In the White House. It was a meteoric rise. Tet this man was no meteor. Slow of mind, with a narrow range of reading and of Intellectual Interests, Cleveland was stolid In manner and without brilliant qualities. But he had a character as rugged and immovable as a mountain. It had been built up in rural parsonages, where bis father, a Presbyterian minister, was required to rear a large farm ilf and sot an example to the community on $000 a year. For more thatTa quarter of a cen-- -. tury he ploddeff along In' Buffalo, a I quiet, trusted, but not distinguished lawyer.

Afterward he rose to a high and prosperous tank In the practice of law, The only political office Harrison ever held before bis election to the presidency was a seat In the senate. Defeated for to that body In the year before he was elected president. he feft Washington with no thought that he would soon return as president-elect- , and he frankly described himself as "a dead duck." The only candidate that the rank and file of the Republicans wanted to nominate in 1888 was Blaine. But he was not well, and he refused to make a contest for the nomination.
