GOVERNOR HARMON AND BuODLERs

Very plain now is the secret of
the resaon of the failure of Cover
nor Harmon of Ohio to secure the
support the needed and asked for
in his comprehensive reform pro-
gram in the Ohio legislature. 1t
is old fashioned bribery and
corruption. the parties at interest
being about fifty venal legislators
on the one hand and an unscrupul-
Gus and numerous lobby on tho
other. 1t is charged to be extact,
that forty-nine members Of the
legislature are implicated in the
bribery disclosures, including
more than a majority of the men,
bers of the state senate.
From the beginning of the
session Governor Harmon has
found himself blocked in every
effort he has made. Only a week
ago he went to the length of
summoning the democratic men,
bers together in caucus and read
ing them certain lecture on their
faithlessness to demonstrate that
the democratic party was qualified
to govern. The only result was q
hyprocritical vote of confidence"
in the governor, followed, on the
very next day, by a continuance of
the reactionary policy of ripping
the vitals out of the progressive
platform measures the governor
was supporting
1t is cheering news that not only
is the grand jury to make a
ea,ching investigation of bribery
in the legislature, but that the
governor has himself taken hand
in the game. He it. was who in
terferred at once to stop a pro.
posed Legislative investigation"
that might have served as an
Immunity bath" for the accused
members. Furthermore he
directed the attorney gtnersl to
assist the grand jury in its pro-
ceedings. and has allowed it to be
known that he will personally take
a part in guiding the course of
justice. And since Judson Har.
mon is lawyer of national reput.
alton, with proved ability for
reaching "the man higher up" and
endowed with absolute fearlessne ss
and imparciality, the prospects
are bright for a badly-needed
housekeeping in Ohio.
II every guilty man in the Ohio
legislature could be exposed and
punished the effect would be far
reaching indeed. 1t would serve
to cleanse the politics not only of
Ohio, but Of every other state by
putting an effective halt to legis-
lature corruption. Governor Har-
mon has shown both the ability
and the courage to clean out
corrupt politics IN the executive
and administrative department Of
the Ohio government. He has
given the various state institu-
tions, bureaus and commissions,
such drastic and salutary clean
ing as they have not had for half
century. II he can do as much
for honesty and decency in the
legislative department he will have
earned the thanks not only of
Ohio. but of the entire country
