Governor by the State
Convention.

DAYTON, O., June 22-Judson
Harmon was renominated for gov
ernor by reclamation today at the
state Democratic convention.
The following resolution present.
cd by the committee on resolutions
was adopted by the convention en-
dorslng Governor Harmon for the
Presidency in 1912:
I'VE invite the attention of the
nation to Judson Harmon and the
work he is doing for Ohio. Two
years hence 1t will have been COM
pieted. Then We can. spare him for
larger duties. He believes that
guilt is personal, he is acting on
that belief at home and would
act upon 1t in larger fields. High
sense Of duty provides his only mo-
lives for official actions and his
sense of justice alone compels that
Judgment, firmness and strength
which mark him as man to sup
plant vacclllation and weakness. The
nation needs a real man and Ohio
Democracy here presents and en-
dorses for President in 1912 Judson
Harmon"
Leading points in the platform
adopted by the convention are rs
follows:
The coming campaign in Ohio for
the election of state officers SHOULD

We submit the record made and
making by the present Democratic
state administration instead of pro
tecting and defending grafters as
was the way of the Republican Of
hccrs, the present governor having
them prosecuted and sued for return
to the state of many thousands oi
dollars secured by fraud and wrong
doings. We favor the maximum nj.
grcgate tax rate of ten mills. fair
and just regulation of all other pub.

the income tax amendment for the
federal constitution, uniform
school book law. the principle of in,
ltiative and referendum, extension
Of teaching agriculture, and the en-
actment OF legislation limiting the
hours Of labor OF employed women
to promote non-partisan judiciary
and placing the names OF all judicia
candidates upon a separate ballo
without party distinction. We de
mand the election of United States
senator's by direct vote of the PEG
Pile. and revision of the present IN
just aud oppressive tariff. We favol
the immediate enactment of the dol
lar day pension bill introduced !!
both the sixtieth and sixty-first con
crosses. We believe in the conserva
ton of our natural resources and W
dcnounce the federal administration
