GOV. JUDSON HARMON, OF OHIO. [Continued from page 6. column 4.) played remarkable discrimination in honoring exceptional men with an ex- ceptional vote. This explains why in strong Republican sentiment to com- bat, Governor Harmon nevertheless was given a majority of 101.000. Ohio repudiated her favorite son. William H. Taft, president of the United States. Governor Harmon won the greatest Democratic victory in the history of Ohio or of the mid- dle west. It was a crushing blow to the president. : ‘There are some things in Ohio more popular than the Taft smile. One of them is the Hon. Judson Harmon, who will countenance no frills and who sits on the edge of a big table that occupies the center of the gov- ernor’s reception room and chats with visitors. “Common as an old shoe” is the way Ohio farmers size up thelr after they ree him perched on that table, swinging his feet. and from the Baptist college at Denison, Licking county. and in 1802 the school honored him with the degree of LL. D. He attended the Cincinnati Law school and graduated in 1869. Mr. Harmon's idea of what Demoec- racy should do can be summed up in the closing words of an interview which he gave, as follows: pr—— GOVERNOR AND MRS. HARMON WITH TWO OF THEIR GRAND- CHILDREN. hear him talk straight from the shoul- der. When he was attorney general he ar- gued many cases before the supreme court—argued them well—so well that he earned many deserving compliments from bench and bar. Among them, and perhaps the most noted, was that of the United States against the Trans- missouri Freight association. It was the first test as to the efficiency of the Sherman anti-trust law when applied to prevent an illegal combination of railroads. Mr. Harmon won, and the combination went by the boards. Of a similar character were the suits against the Freight Traffic asso(®ition and the Addyston Pipe company. Har- mon was successful in both, and thus was established the law as it stands today. There is an odd series of coinci- dences in the careers of Governor Har- mon and President Taft. Always Har- mon has followed Taft or Taft has followed Harmon. Harmon resigned as judge in Ohio, and Taft took his place. Then Mr. Taft became solicitor general of the United States. Harmon followed him to Washington as a cabi- net member. Will he follow Taft to Washington again? Governor Harmon was born in New- town. Hamilton county. O..

They are mow collected by tariff and other taxes on consumption, and the enormous vested wealth of the country escapes. A few states have undertaken to tax incomes, but, as I am advised. with lit- tle success. Changes of legal residence are too easy to make. The efficiency of a federal income tax has been proved. The levying of one would help secure the lowering of tariff taxes, so greatly and generally desired. while the people will watch more closely what is done with their money when they know they are paying taxes and how much.” SOME BIG BILLS A REAL GOVERNOR OBTAINED FOR PEOPLE IN OHIO The Oregon plan of nominating and electing United States senators by direct vote of the Placing the.
