dc.description.abstract Letters of General Joseph R. Hawley to Charles Dudley Warner, The Hartford Daily Times, February 22, 1930. The republican pre-convention campaign in 1894 had been extremely lively. Colonel Frank W. Cheney of Manchester was a candidate for the nomination for governor. So was John Addison Porter of Pomfret, who was later to be executive secretary to William McKin ley, and who had come into the owner ship of the Hartford Post. Middletown offered O. Vincent Coffin. In 1890 the supporters of Morgan G. Bulkeley had dominated the Hartford republican caucus although Bulkeley failed of renomination for the governorship. In the legislative session of 1893, Governor Bulkeley and Samuel Fessenden of Stamford had been con tenders for Hawley's seat as United States senator. When the campaign of 1894 came there was an effort on the part of the Hawley supporters to re move the Bulkeley forces from control of the Hartford republican organization, Colonel Patrick McGovern was the republican town chairman and a stalwart Bulkeley man. Lyman B. Brainard, father of ex-Mayor Newton Brainard, was then mayor of Hartford, Chairman McGovern called the caucus, for choosing state delegates, for late August. The- Hawley people feared plot and secured adjournment until early September. However, Governor Bulkeley offered a motion that voting then be by check fist, the polls to remain open until every republican had had a chance to vote. en_US
