I dunno.  What did you see that I didn't?  I saw Truman being nasty
to a nasty guy, letting him know that he was in control.  Justified, 
in my opinion, and completely in character for a good sheriff.

Highly highly doubtful.  I'm not sure yet, but I think it could have been 
Truman that called Cooper.  Note that Cooper is talking to someone else when
Andy grabs the phone from person x and tells Dale that Leo's been shot.
I tried listening *very* carefully when Dale asks "who is this?" but I
couldn't tell.  On reflection, though, it probably wasn't Harry, since 
Cooper would know Harry's voice.  I still doubt strongly that Harry shot him.

I'm not sure where you get this.  Please give us some evidence.  Everything
I've seen so far has shown Harry as a good sheriff, albeit a little naive...

Yup.
