Ing TO lie about and misrepresent
Governor Harmon in any way. The
half-and.half truth and deception
about the new tax values is one of
the ways.
Governor Harmon is recognized
throughout the United States as an
able student in the science of gov.
ernment. He knows the limits of the
constitution and the laws. He knows
What can be done and what can not
be done.
Governor Harmon did not originate
taxation reform. He has never pre-
tended tina he did. Taxation reform
has been burning question in the
state of Ohio for 80 years. Proposed
amendments to the constitution, one
after another, have failed. One state
administration after another has TAX

20 accomplish something. Governor
Mckinley appointed tax commits.
sion. 1t investigated the subject and
reported. Matters drifted along and
more proposed constitutional amend.
ments failed. Governor Harris ap-
Pointed a special tax commission. 1t
investigated and reported.
Governor Harmon knew about the
work of that last commission. A SON
in-law of his was member of it.
Atlee Pomerene, Democratic candi-
date for lieutenant governor, was an
other member of 1t.
When Governor Harmon came
into office, instead of doing nothing
he said Tets go ahead and do some
thing In his inaugural address he
said the state administrator and leg

llcved the limit too high ana that
the limit ought to be 10 mills, so as
10 protect all taxpayers alike and en-
courage the placing OF hidden prop
crty upon the tax duplicate. He did
not veto the bill because, had ne
done so, there would have been no
protection at all to taxpayers under
the increased value.
If Governor Harmon Is reelected,
and a Democratic Legislature is elect.
ed TO help him, one of the first things
to be done viii be to put the tax
limit at 10 mills, where il ought to
be, as guaranty to taxpayers before
the abpraisement of personal prop
erty next year. The Democratic plat.
form demands it, The Republican
platform demands it, but Republi-
can legislature would not grant IT,
Another thing Governor Harmon
will do II reelected, and given the
assistance OF a Democratic legisla-
ture, will be to take the power over
local boards of tax review away from
the political bosses and give II back
to the people where II belongs.
Instead OF voting against Governor
Harmon for progress made in tax.
alton reform which he has been able
to force through in spite of the hos.
tility of a Republican legislature, every
Republican and Democratic farmer
and home owner ought to be out
working day and night for the re-
plectiOn of Governor Harmon and tho
election of Democratic legislature
in both branches TO assist him.

, Observation-Disclosures

ior correcting the many abuses g.
the present taxation system that has
gradually shifted most OF the burdens
OF taxation upon owners of real es
tate by lowering the values and rails
Ing the rates.
Inc new law requires that lists
showing the values placed upon real
estate this year shall be furnished TO
each property owner so that he may
see whether his neighbor's property
Is valued justly, thereby insusng an
equitable appraisement to all owners
OF real estate. These lists are just
being furnished and, of course, they
snow that the values fixed this year
are higher than the old values.
The trlcksters who are trying TO
deceive farmers and home owners on
the new values are going about Sc
cretly and saying to them that they
VIII be compelled to pay more taxes
hereafter on account OF the increased
values. They purposely refrain from
saying that property owners are in
sured against such extortion by a
limit put upon the tax rate. 1t is
the purpose of the tricksters to de-
ceiye by telling only half the truth,
winch Is the meanest and most
despisable kind OF falsehood.
Or course tax values on land have
peen raised. Every owner OF real es-
tate with a grain of common sense
not only knows 1t, but is GLAD OF
IT. II means that he will pay less
taxes when the whole plan is com
pleted. Suppose the value Is double.
ANY man who knows that two and
TWO make four, knows what 1t will
mean TO multiply his old tax values
Dy TWO and divide the tax rate b.
three--5less taxes to pay.
Taxes VIII not be paid on the new
land values until next wear AT the
same ume increased tax valuations

excise taxes Of corporations, will go

'aiue' according to the constitutional
rule Thus all increased values will

the result Will be more even dis.
ripution OF taxes to be paid under

as pain as day to any man who pays
taxes on any kind of property.
