The more level headed editors of
Ohio Republican newspapers are i'm
pressed with the strong possibility
that II the senate refuses TO confirm
the appointment OF Mr.. Sullivan 10
succeed Mr.. Morris as railroad COM
missioner and the leaGers generally
conduct themselves In a strictly par
tisan way in their efforts to embarass
Gov. Harmons administration and
prevent him from carrying into ef-
feet the reforms the people who elect
him expect him to encompass, In
stead of electing a governor and
secretary of state, they will ieleet
the entire opposition ticket the very
first time they have the opportunity.
The people who elected Gov. Har-
mon In 1908, can just as easily elect
the entire ticket in 1910. - Cam
