Ross, "Jonathan Prentiss Dolliver; A Study in Political Integrity and Independence," 65 (Iowa City: State Historical Society of Iowa 1958).〕 Porter twice came closer to winning the governorship than all but one other Democratic candidate of that era.〔Editorial, "Harding's Pluralities,' Cedar Rapids Republican, 1919-01-18 at p.4 (referring to his 1906 and 1918 losses).〕 He later served as a member of the U.S. Interstate Commerce Commission for eighteen years.
