Chase and Harrison factions clash in Indiana primaries
In the 1892 Indiana Republican primaries for state delegates, Chase and Harrison factions clash as Federal officials oppose the governor. Chase leads in Marion county while Gov. Chase travels to Fort Wayne to rally for the state convention. Gray expresses satisfaction with the national Democratic ticket as Harrisonites fear an independent Republican bid.

Chase Was In It Governor Nominee at Republican Convention
The Republican convention backed Parson Chase for governor on the first ballot despite labor and Harrison officeholder opposition. Theodore Shockney of Delaware county won the lieutenant governor nomination, with Judges McBride Miller and Elliott renominated. Scholz of Evansville endorsed for treasurer. The ticket favors small fry, the platform repeats old stances, and the old local option high license issue was dropped as it failed to attract votes. C. W. Fairbanks chaired the gathering as southern turnout was low and farmers largely absent due to date choice.
