Opens the Democratic Campaign

He Delivers the Keynote Speech
at KentOn.
TARIFF is HIS THEME.
Asserts That Republican Party
Failed in Pledges.
Waste of Three Hundred Mil
lions a Year.

Canton, O., Sept. 24.-The Democrat
ic state campaign opened today with
Governor Judson Harmon of Ohio, can
didate for reelection in 1912 as the
chief feature of the program. The Re
publican campaign opened a week ago
today at Kenton.
In his keynote speech today, Cover
nor Harmon scored the present national
administration and told his hearers the
only hope for the people lay in the
success of a national Democratic tick
ct. The speaker declared that waste
full expenditures had led the Repub-
lican party to overtax the nation to
the extent of $500 900 900 and attacked
the Payne-Aldrich tariff revision as
legislation opposed to the interests of
the consumers, who would not be de-
ceived by fair talk in attempt to de-
fend it. He said the Republican party
had not kept it's campaign promises.
Billion Dollars From People.
Congress is now appropriating q
Governor Harmon, every cent of which
is levied on the people of the country
by taxation in some form.
1T is confessed that extravaganza
and Acknowledgement cause a waste of
not less than three hundred million dol
lars eacn year in the ordinary conduct
of the government which is more than
the combined expenditures of all the
states in the union. 1t is surely time
the people should bestir themselves, for
every one of them is compelled to pay
federal taxes on almost everything he
buys for consumption or other use,
whether he owns property or not.
And every one is not only compelled
to contribute to this enormous outlay
of the federal government but is also
made to pay a much greater amount
in the form of increased prices on
goods made in this country because Of
a tariff law framed for the express
purpose of making him to do this to
swell the profits of the manufacture
ers."
