HARMON'S RECORD.
Roosevelt Attacks Governor In First
Speech In Ohio Campaign.

Toledo, Nov. Ga severe personal
attack on Gov. Harmon vas made by
Theodore Roosevelt Saturday in his
first speech in the Ohio campaign.
Col. Roosevelt reviewed Gov. Har-
mons connection with the Cincinnati,
Hamilton & Dayton Railroad. of which
he was receiver. and said that the
governor had not performed his duty
to the state Faithfully.
The colonel began MS address by
saying that In the Democratic press
there had appeared Saturday tele-
gram addressed to him, and sent "ap-
parently on Gov. Harmon's behalf by
Mr.. Powell, a former Democratic cam
dilate for governor" The telegram
read:
Gov Judson Harmon is the same
Judson Harmon who as special coun-
sci traced the crime of rebating to
Paul Morton. resigning when you re
fused to proceed against this member
of your cabinet"
The message asks Col. Roosevelt
why he did not act against Mr.. Nor
ton.
The colonel asserted that Mr.. Har-
mon failed completely to trace the
crime of rnbating to Mr.. Morton. Mr..
Harmon, he said. proposed to indict
Mr.. Merton anyway, apparently on
the theory that evidence might sub
sequently he found that would connect
Mr.. Morton with misconduct, saying
that guilt is personal.
Saving that Mr.. Harmon had sought to
discredit an innocent man, Col. Roosevelt
took up the receivership of the Cincinna-
ii, Hamilton & Dayton, which he said
was owned in Wall street, lit being, as
I am informed, one of the Morgan prop
critics, and the Morgan people, or which
eyer interest it was in Wall street apply
ing to have their friend, Mr.. Harmon,
made receiver.
"IIe received salary of $4,000 year.
Col. Roosevelt continued. 1T is shown
by actual record that while he was re-
ceiver the road under him was engaged
continuously in placing damage claims
to certain parties for the purpose of hold
ing business, under circumstances which
clearly indicated that the payment OF
such damages served the same purpose
as the payment of the rebates. 1t has
been shown that the road was in com
bination with other roads to fix rates,
the combination being certainly against
the spirit and apparently also against
the letter of the law.
Mr.. Harmon became governor and
continued this dual position as receiver
of the road at a salary of $4,000. His
services to his two clients-the state of
Ohio and the Wall-street-owned railroad
appear to have been about in proper
ton to the respective salaries they hand
ed him. For eight months he continued
n this dual position, getting about $4,000
from the railroad and about $1,000 from
he state.
During this time he claims as one of
lis reasons for justification that as the
abroad was insolvent it did not pay the
axes to his officials in his capacity as
governor. but it was not too insoivent to
pay him his salary as receiver Of the rail

his usual recklessness, said Harmon
he talks about a matter of which ne

makes what can only be Wilful mis-
statements on matters with which he
had to do.
II have publicly said again and
again that not dollar of taxes was
evaded nor a single rebate in any form
paid while I was receiver of the Gin
cinnati, Hamilton & Dayton. My state
ment is corroborated by Mr.. Thomas

Rifenberick, the officer in charge OF
the tax department, and Morrison r
