relief that udsOn harmon, governor
Sc the Buckeye state, has the right 4
lind OF liberal conse tism' TO make 81
him an ideal leader Of the Democratic
party In the next presid entail cam
paign. The Democrats declare that
Mr.. Harmon stands we'll with the east | |
and that he has not been too much
Of a conservative to have won TN the
heart Of the Democrats of the west.
It is to be taken for granted, however,
that one reason why some Of the Dem
ocrats have considered Governor Har- |
mon particularly available is because +
he comes from Ohio and has carried |
chat state against the Republicans.
The Democrats who are favorably
inclined to Harmon believe and say
that if he does not carry the state
the next time he runs for governor
his chances for receiving the DEM
ocratic nomination virtually will be
eliminated. In Indiana, the state next |
west Of Ohio, is Governor Marshall,
who was elected on the Democratic
ticket in the year when the Repubil'
can presidential candidate carried the
state. In the Democratic party as it
is represented in Washington Cover
nor Marshall has scores OF friends, IN
| fact all the Democrats are personally
friendly to him, and were it not Tor
| the fact that Governor Harmon is an
Ohio man, the home state OF TAFT, y
