BY SECRETARY OF STATE DAWSON,
WHO WRITES LETTER IN HIS
BEHALF.
SETTLES QUESTION RAISED ABOUT
HARMER.s ATTITUDE ON TAX
REFORM.
Every One Knew He Was With Governor,
Except Editor Of Herald, Who Was
Asleep or Didn't Want to
Know.

Secretary William NJ. o. Dawson, The
champion of the governors tax reform
measures, writes the following 90 the
editor of this paper:
Understanding that, there has Been
question raised as to the attitude of
Senator Harmer towards tax reform, IN
Justice to the senator, permit me to say
that he is all right upon that question,
and stands shoulder to shoulder with
Governor White in that matter
Everyone around here that we have
heard of Inns known all along that Hnr-
n,er was with the state administration
on the question, except the editor of
the Herald, who confessed his ignorance
last week and who has not enough inter-
est in tn. welfare of the state and the
people Ia keep up with the Legislatures
acts. Every one but him knew that
Harmer made the great speech of his
life early in the session, when the Tax
commission report was before the state
Senate. He was the leading advocate
for the enactment of the COMMISSIONS
recommendations into law. It was g,.ils
orally commented on as splendid
speech, but for some reason the Herlist
did not know anything about it. May
be that sheet was asleep, as usual.
