GOVERNOR HARMON GIVES HIS
REASONS FOR RECALLING
TROOPS TO COLUMBUS

Finding that the local authorities
were unable to suppress rioting and
lawlessnes at Columbus, Governor
Harmon resolved to assert his authori-
ty as chief executive of the state and
assume control of the situation. He
did this, as he explains, on his own
motion to put a stop to violence and
to restore order in the Capital city.
After ordering out a sufficient force
to cope with prevailing conditions,
Governor Harmon issued the following
statement setting forth his reasons
for recalling the troops to Columbus:
81 have ordered portion of the Ma
tional Guard to report for duty at Co
lumbus forthwith.
Il have done this of my own motion
under my authority as governor. The
police force of this city, which Is en-.
tirely too small at best, has been re.
duced and demoralized by the open
mutiny of many of its members. 1t
has shown itself incapable, without
help, of maintaining order.
"A continuance of this condition
would disgrace the state and infict
grievous injuries on its capital city.
Wherever the blame rests, for 10 sure
ly rests somewhere, the menace of the
situation Is beyond question. And
am unwilling to let lawless violence
run unchecked, for lack of sufficient
force to put IL down, while the police
force of the city Is being recruited and
reorganized and the sheriff Is sum
moning the men of the county to up.
hold the public authority,
1T does not mend matters to say
the local authorities should have talk
en- these steps sooner, though this Is
true. Let them be taken now with
out delay. Meanwhile the troops will
render whatever assistance Is needed
THE state expects every either
promptly to show his colors and lenC
his aid, SO that the emergency which
the guard Is summoned to meet may
speedily be brought to an end and Co
lumbus and Franklin county prove
themselves worthy OF the right of sell
government by meeting its responsi
bilities. The public interests nov
wholly overshadows the private con
troversy which is the occasion Of tn,
grave danger that IL permitted to con
tinue, would threaten the foundations
of the government, and the first car,
of all citizens must be to maintain
law and order, because otherwise n,
man can enjoy his individual right
whatever they may be"

Beverly, Mass, Aug. 1S.-The de-
feat which the New York Republican
committee administered to Colonel
Roosevelt when it chose Vice Presi-
dent Sherman temporary chairman OF
the state convention in preference to
the colonel, was the principal topic
discussed by the president and the
vice president during the latter's
visit to Burgess Point. There was
nobody present at that conference
who would talk about it afterward,
but Mr. Sherman had few remarks
to make to the reporters in general
way. He is going to take the tenn
porary Craftsmanship and not with
draw in favor of the colonel, he said,
pnd he doesn't expect a fight in the
convention. He wosldn't admit that
there was any likelihood OF the
colonel making trouble. although the
action of the committee did not con-
duce to harmony.
Some of the lines for the fight
which Republican leaders know the
party faces this fall were laid at this
conference. Among other things it
was decided that Uncle Joe Cannon
is to be reprimanded for the state.
ment he made Monday. While it was
not said so bluntly, it Is understood
that Mr.. Sherman acduiesced in the
decision TO censure Uncle Joe. The
politicians here who have beer
swinging over to. the be ief that the
attempt at reorganization of the par
ty would fall fat and that Uncle Joe
was not to be harmed, were discon-
certed by this announcement. A
statement from someone close to the
president is said to be in course of
preparation.
Taft to Prepare Letter.
President Taft was asked 10 pre-.

The president consented. Mr.. Sher

was said that the letter should be

committee. In it the president will

Republican party in power No doubt
the letter will contain references to
the record of the party in the last
