u.
The institutions of the State are
better managed, with large saving,
by single board which costs less
than the numerous boards and Off
GERS it replaced.
More than 100000 per year is
now received from inmates who are
able and ought to pay for their keep.
Many useless offices have been
abolished, to the great gain of the
taxpayers.
All killed or injured employees
or their families are provided for
by an excellent compensation law
which [ myself helped draft. The
Republican Legislature, yielding to
the general demand, authorized me
to appoint a commission to inyesti
gate and report on the subject. but
provided no money for the neces-
sary expenses. So I personally ad-
vanced nearly $4,000 for this pur
pose SO that the work could be done.
The Democratic Legislature after
ward repaid this, but I had no as
Surance of it,
Ihe hours of female employees
were limited. I let the bill become
a law without signing it because va
nous industries were stricken out
improperly, as / believed.
Other measures for the protection
OF employees were passed.
Federal Senators are hereafter to
be named by vote of the people. Mr..
Bryan present associates bitterly
opposed my efforts to have this law
passed.
The income tax amendment was
ratified.
The teaching of agriculture was
introduced in the common schools
and many measures adopted to adj
vance that greatest and most useful
of all industries.
Many other wholesome laws were
passed and all have been honestly
enforced.
A "reactionary" is one who de-
tends old abuses and sets himself
against efforts to reform them
What is there 'reactionary" about
my record anywhere? If Mr.. Bryan
knows of the many reforms accom-
pllshed in Ohio he is grossly unfair
to me and my comrades in the ad-
ministration. If he does not know
Of them then it is sheer wantonness
for him to come into the State of my
birth and home and try to discredit
me with the people without specifi-
cation or proof, though even an &C
cused criminal is entitled to both.
He would have the people believe
that I would serve special interests
instead of the public if | were elect
ed President. If he really thinks so
himself he ought to have cut my &C
quaintance long ago, as l would
surely do with anybody l thought
capable of such an Infamous betrayal
of public trust
But l served for years as a judge
and also as Attorney General. I
have been for more than three years
Governor. In all of these positions
there have been ample opportunities
to favor special interests or shirk
my duty. My record is open. If Mr..
Bryan will point out a single in
stance where I ever did either I will
get out Of the way of his desires,
whatever they are.
Does he mean I have only been
acting a part in all these positions,
just to secure the confidence of the

caucus TO bring them to submission
has turned up as an active or asso-
ciate member Of their league" All
the indicted and the near-indicted
are with them. The Speaker who
put the calendar committee under
control of crooks, three of whom
have been indicted, has now very
properly joined them They have
been active as tumble bugs in circu-
lating outright falsehoods and ma
licious perversions of the truth.
Surely the faithful Democrats all
over the State will not overlook
these facts nor miss their signifi-
canoe. The gross wrong against me
would be of slight Importance COM
pared with the injury to the future
of the party.
Now they have brought Mr.. Bryan
and carried him around the State
He was reliably informed of the
character and motives of the moving
spirits in this rule or ruin movement,
but seems not to care. Their Ma
poleon, now and for years the lobby
list and log roller for special inter
ests, proclaims the fact that he has
paid from his own pocket the heavy
expenses of the special trains and
cars used in the two tours of the
State. If the effort should succeed
he expects to find this good invest
ment by resuming his interrupted
trade with greater gains than ever.
So he announces a lion on the party
in advance. He would rather have
the wreckage of defeat to deal on
than permit victory which would
make the party useful agency for
the people in clean and capable
hands.
Now, as to Mr.. Bryan. What has
caused the change in his attitude to-
ward me?
At the National Convention of
1904 he offered to place me in nomi-
nation if I would have the Ohio dele
cation reconsider their decision not
to have my name presented.
In 1908 I constantly urged his
election, declaring I would willingly
be defeated for Governor if it would
help him. And during our joint
campaign he repeatedly praised my
efforts in his behalf and told many
"
in his Cabinet if he were elected.
This he admits.
During my first term, in a speech
at Columbus, he highly praised my
course as Governor.
He has often and even lately ex-
pressed both by letter and word of
mouth the same personal regard for
NE which l have always entertained
for him.
What have I done which leads him
now to say | am not fit to be even q
justice of the peace? He has stated
not a single fact from my official
record or elsewhere to Justify his
conduct, except that I repudiated the
platform on the initiative and ref
erendum This is not true. The
platform simply approved the prin-
ciple" of that idea and for this rea-
son, though | doubted it's practical
bility in Ohio, advocated before the
joint caucus and signed when passed
the bill authorizing resort to it. in
municipalities, which was all our
Constitution would permit.
He says 1 am not progressive"
but ''reactionary This is merely
calling names, the last resort in
poor case. If 'progressiveness
means sincere and successful efforts
to secure practical reforms in gov
eminent, instead of mere talk, where
has so much been accomplished as in

are disgracing American politics this
year. The last Democratic State
Convention, which unanimously re-
nominated me for Governor also
unanimously made me the choice of
the Ohio Democracy for President.
This was done against my ex-
pressed wish, though l finally yield
ed and highly appreciated it as an
expression of confnedce and esteem
by my party comrades. But my work
as Governor was not finished My
first duty was to complete it and
did not wish to risk the opportunity
to do this by distracting attention to
other things.
The watchword adopted for the
campaign was Harmon has made
good.' But there were some who
thought l had made too good. The
pickings and stealings, grating and
lobbying which had disgraced Ohio
and led to my election had become
too risky to be profitable. There
was stagnation in the contraband
trade in votes and influence between
Democratic and Republican poll
ticians for revenue only. l had been
openly insulted by them for my anti
lobby message at the session just
closed.
To stave off political bankruptcy
from this bipartisan combination |
had to be beaten. The Commoner's
mailing list was/secured and three
separate circulars sent out filled
with falsehood and denunciation.
They bore Mr.. Bryan's picture and
urged his friends to vote against me
because my reelection would make
me the candidate for Preside nt.
These circulars were prepared and
sent by the Democratic National
Committeeman, acting openly with.
the Republican Committee in def
ance of the action of our Convention.
The result of that campaign will
always be memorable in the annals
of Ohio Democracy. I was reelected
by more than 100000 majority,
though Col. Roosevelt and most of
the Cabinet came into the State to
oppose me. And there was a clean
sweep all along the line. I was
specially pleased by the election of
Democratic county officers all over
the State, men who had been stead
fast in the faith through long years
of hopeless struggle.
The dearest wish of my heart has
been to repay the great honor done
me by so conducting the affairs of
the State that a succession of Demo-
cratic administrations would follow
mine. 1 have done my part and that
result will surely follow unless,
through neglect and inattention, the
honest and loyal Democrats allow
the party to be put in the attitude
of befouling it's own nest.
1 am much more concerned about
this than about any personal ambi-
ton of my own. 1t may be thought
wiser to select some other candidate
than myself at Baltimore. 1 would
not, if / could, interfere with the
free choice of the convention. But
if the unanimous action of the Day
ton convention is to be reversed at
the primary it will be heralded as a
reputation of my administration.
AS the people of the State have so
emphatically approved it, this would
throw away an asset of the highest
value and put the party back where
it was for almost twenty years. Men
now thoroughly discredited would
accept it as an invitation to resume
their use of the party for selfish and
ignoble purposes and the fruitage of
its two great victories would be lost
