Otilonns expected big things from Judsou Unrmou when they elected him their governor. The achievements of tho Democratic general assembly show tbo expectations of the people bave been realized.

In l'Ybriuiry, 1010, ten months beforo tbo stnto election In Ohio, when Judson Harmon would go beforo the people for re-election, Ohio Republicans by or der of President Taft held a harmony meeting In Dayton. The Republicans at Dayton did not talk of helping Pros Ident Tnft or of restoring tho Itcpub Mean party; they talked about the chanre of defeating Governor Harmon, and they did not talk hopefully. Un consciously tbey paid a patent trlbnte to tho real strength of the man. It suddenly revealed the tremendous suc cess or Uov em or Harmon and his com plete mastery of the political situation lu Ohio. The plan of opposition out lined In Dayton has never censed. No governor has ever been opposed by so strong a force us Governor narmon. During his first term of two years a Republican general assembly to dis credit blra reduced tho treasury bal ance S.Oo'J.858 tW by maklug appropri ations exceed revenues nnd also creat ed obligations amounting to J-'.OOO.OOO more by deciding to build new struc Hires for stnto Institutions. When the revenues were reduced $300,000 a year by voting out saloons and several nun dred thousands of dollars were added to the wrong column by the ubollsb uient of prison labor contracts Unr mon's unna wero apparently tied, and bis enemies laughed at bis discomfort Tbo governor promptly reduced public expenditures. Then, Instead of a gen oral levy, the proper enforcement of the excise laws provided J500.000 addi tional every year. Tbo establishment of a market for prison manufactured goods uud the concentration ot author ity over nineteen suite Institutions Is oxpected to add another fftoo.txxi to tbo stnto revenues. Thus was the sit uation met uud tbo state restored to a sound Uuanclal basis without any ad ditional burdens bclug Imposed on the peoplo who uro lenst nblo to bo furthor taxed. Voters llko to support clean and able men, uh bas boon demonstrated In many localities where tho electors dis played remarkable discrimination in honoring exceptional men with an ex ceptlonal voto. This explains why in a strongly Republican state Judson Harmon was elected governor of Ohio two years ago by a plurality of 10.372 in tho faco ot a Republican plurality or 09.591 In tbo voto for president On his record as govornor of tbo state Judson Harmon was prepared to go beforo tbo peoplo and ask re-election. With precedent ngalnst blm, tho election machinery against blm, with the president of tbo United States, a citizen of tbo same state, flghtiug him for re-election nnd lu the faco of a strong Republican sentiment to com bat Governor Harmon nevertheless was given a majority of 101.000. Ohio repudiated ber fnvorito son, 1,'llllnm H. Taft, president of tbo Uulied Stales. Governor Hurmon won the greatest Democratic victory In tho blstory of Ohio or of tho mid dlo west, it was a crushing blow to tbo president. 'There are somo things In Ohio mora popular than tbo Taft smile One of them is the Hon. Judson Harmon, who will countenance no frills and who sits on tho edge of a big table tbat occupies tho center of the gov ernor's reception room and cbuts witb visitors "Common as an old sboe" Is the way Ohio farmers slzo up their governoi after they seo blm perched on that table, Bwinglng bis feet and bear him talk straight from the shoul der. When bo was attorney general he ar gued many cases beforo tho supremo court argued thom well so well tbat ho earned many deserving compliments from beueh and bar. Among them, and perhaps tho most noted, was tnut of tho United States against the Trans mlssouri Freight association. It was tho first test ua to tbo efllclency of the Sherman anti-trust law whet upplled to prevent an Illegal combination of railroads. Mr. Harmon won, and tho combination went by tho boards. Of a similar "v -"- l against tho Freight Traffic association and the Addyston Pipo company. nat mon was successful In both, and thus was established tbo law as It stands today. There Is an odd scries of coinci dences In the careers of Governor Unr mon nnd President Taft Always Har mon has followed Taft or Taft has followed Harmon. Harmon resigned ns Judgo in Ohio, nnd Taft took bis pi nee. Then Mr. Taft becama solicitor general of tbo United States. Hnrmon followed blm to Washington as a cabi net member.

Judson Harmon nev er missed a game while be was in town. Ho would go to tho ball flcld, shed his coat and collar and wado In und pitch nlno straight Innings witb all the vigor of a big leaguer. Mr. Harmon's father was a Raptlst minister, nnd from htm bo received bis early education. In 1800 bo graduated from tbo liaptlst collcgo ut Dcnison, Licking county, and in 1S02 tho school honored blm with the degrco or LL. D. Ho attended the Cincinnati Law school and graduated In 1UUU. Mr. Harmon's tdcu or what .Dcmoc racy should do can bo summed up In the closing words or an interview which bo gave, as follows: "1 take it tbnt tbo truo platform ot tbo Democracy 1b the preservation to the utmost of tbo rights or tbo com mon man tho man wbo bas not might or wealth to twist tho current of events to suit himself, to observe to the strictest possible degrco the limits of authority Imposed by the coustltu tlon, to ndtnluister tho government eco nomically and In doing tbnt to levy only the nmouut or tnxes. direct or through a tariff, which will meet tho ex tienses of tbo government "Aw I 11 believer In the incomo tnx?" said the governor In response to 11 ques tion. "Most nssuredly," bo continued, "Without such n tax tbo expenses of the federal government, wblcb now junount to n billion dollars per year, cannot be fairly distributed. Tbey aro now collected by tariff und other taxes on consumption, nnd the enormous vested wealth ut the couutry escapes A few stiiies have undertnken to tax Incomes, but us 1 aul advised, with lit tie success Changes of legal residence aro too easy to make.
