Clem Studebaker Eyes Harrison Blaine Accord In Indiana
Clem Studebaker of South Bend, a prospective Republican governor candidate, dismisses talk of his bid and says Harrison and Blaine will reach a quiet agreement for the 1892 nomination. He praises Blaine but expects Harrison to be renominated, citing mutual respect and a lack of ill will between the two leaders. The piece also notes travel details for Pennsylvania lines and assorted local advertisements.
