Corporal Tanner Keeps Low Political Profile in Indiana
Corporal Tanner, in town for the Union veterans convention, says he will not actively campaign this year. He recalls stumping the state four years ago for Republicans and notes Harrison appointed him pension commissioner yet faced calls to resign over liberal pension distributions. He hopes Indiana stays Republican and cites his busy business as reason to avoid campaigning. He neither denies Harrison's pension policy nor expects it to cost him votes among old soldiers.
