At the last meeting of the Washing ton branch of the Anti-Imperialist League, General William Birney, a life long Republican said: "Imperialism respects no law. To it the congress is nothing, the commander-in-chief of the army everything. It disregards consti tution and statutes and transfers all power to the executive. The writ of habeas corpus does not exist in the imperial colonics. The prisons of Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines are vocal with the cries of men who cannot be heard beyond the walls. Im perialism knows no limit, except the caprice of the emporer. It has the sword, it will seize the purse. Nay, it has already defied the limitations im posed by congress; it has expended two hundred millions where only eighty were appropriated. It has, without authority of law, transported immense bodies of troops to the other side of the globe. It has built up an immense patronage in its control of military ap pointments, It has used this patronage for political purposes. Its influence is used to discredit all the fundamental doctrines of American institutions." X X X Another Republican—Captain O'Far reli—said: "We hear a good deal about the trade with the Philippines. It takes from a thousand to thirteen hundred dollars a day to coal each transport on the Pacific ocean between San Francisco and Manila. This coal is imported from Cardiff, Wales. The beef supplied to our troops and the potatoes and vegetables come from Aus tralia. Many of the uniforms worn by our officers and men, in the Philippines, are now manufactured in Ilong Kong, while the cost of our army and navy amounts to $050,000 a day. And the appropriation made by congress for twelve months has been expended or wasted in five months. What a pros pect for the American taxpayer and workingman!" t X X John Shorman has been talking again, and what ho said made it evident that the old man had neither lost Interest in Ohio politics nor the faculty of properly sizing up the situation In that state. Mr. Sherman predicts Republican de feat, because of the opposition of the German voters to the foreign policy of the administration, of which lie said: "It cannot be sustained in morals and ia in contravention to the American Declaration of Independence, and the teachings of the brave men who signed that instrument," and of the Republi can opposition to a continuation of Hanna's leadership. Mr. Sherman didn't say that he would be glad of Re publican defeat in Ohio, or that resent ment of his own treatment by the Hanna-McKinley clique was responsible for the attitude of any of the Republi can voters, but there are some things that are fully understood without being said. X X X That McKinley has become somewhat alarmed by the harsh criticism of Gen eral Otis, by the press of the country, regardless of party, is shown by the serai-official announcement that Gen erals Lawton and Mac Arthur, who are said to be slated for tlie vacancies in the regular array, made by the retire ment of Brigadier General Shafter and the death of Brigadier General Guy V. Henry, are to have practically inde pendent commands in the coming cam paign on the Island of Luzon. That is to say, they are to carry out the general plan of campaign as arranged by Gen eral Otis, but are to be left independent as to the movements of their respective commands while in the field, and free to do as they may think best, without having to first get the consent of General Otis. XXX The administration is bending every effort towards counteracting the adverse sentiment against its Philippine policy, which it realizes is increasing. The Philippine commission, which met in Washington, has been ordered to hurry a preliminary report in favor of the ad ministration policy, so it can be put be fore the public at once. Members of the commission present are Admiral Dewey, Colonel Den by and Professors Schurtnan and Worcester. X X X General Fltz Lee is in Washington, on his way home from Cuba, on leave of absence. His position in the army keeps his mouth closed as to conditions in Cuba, but lie tells his friends private ly that there is an awful mix-up on the island, and his manner indicates that he could tell some Interesting things if lie were at liberty to do so. BARNETT A COWARD Denounced by His Own Men as a __ Skulker. IK EKfRY fIUEHT QUALITY. Opinions of Several of the Tenth Boys Who Saw Him at the Rear, But Ke-#:r in Front of Battle. The Philadelphia Record correspond ent visited Waynesburg and inter viewed a number of the Tenth regi ment boys, securing enough unfavor able reports of "Long Distance Jim my," as Harnett is called, to fill many columns. Following are some ex tracts: "Where the is Lieutenant Colo nel Burnett?" exclaimed Colonel Haw kins, of the Tenth regiment, mopping his face, overheated by leading liis men in the thickest of the battle at Gui gulnto, In the Philippines. "In the rear, as always, behind a rice dyke," answered some of his men, whose only rebuke from the com mander was a grim smile. But pres ently he shouted to William T. Hayes, of Waynesburg, and others: " him; go find him and tell him to come up!" Members of Burnett's regiment tes tify to these and similar outbreaks of the commander's justifiable anger on occasions of the lieutenant colonel's alleged skulking when he was needed to help Hawkins in forming lines or ad vancing on the Filipinos. "I declare most positively," says a Tenth man, "Barnett did not come near the Gui gulnto firing line until all was over, and many others in different compan ies know this as well as I do, and they say so, although generally, from vari ous motives of policy, they do not go Into print at present." RICE DYKE JIMMY. "No wonder," says Private Albert Crouse, of Waynesburg. "that even in Pittsburg, upon our return for the re ception, the Tenth's boys exclaimed in the streets: 'Hello! Here comes Rice Dyke Jimmy. Look out for the long range gun!" Crouse adds: "I've been a lifelong Republican, but I wouldn't vote for that skulker, Barnett, He lacks every soldierly quality. No Republican sol dier around here will vote for him if I can help it. I see that some men claim for him 200 of the 800 votes in the regiment. I do not believe that 60 will vote for him. and they will be constrained by what they are deluded into regarding as loyalty to the party, just as if the welfare of the party de pended upon a coward's political fate." ACCUSERS CORROBORATED. Company K men, of Waynesburg, al though part of Barnett's battalion, censure him as severely as Company I, of Greensburg, who tell of their see ing him lying well protected in the "Buffalo wallow," near Guiguinto rail road bridge, some hundreds of yards in the rear of where Hawkins and Major Blerer were forming the firing line at the fight's beginning. Com pany I men say all the rest of the regi ment were ahead of them when they passed "the crouching lieutenant colo nel." Company Ii men's stories, particu lar that of William T. Hayes, who was detailed to the hospital corps, fit into the narrative of Private John E. Clark, of Washington, who describes his helping to carry wounded and a dying man of.the Tenth far to the rear, where he saw Barnett "lying low behind a mound while Hawkins and Bierer, the latter being commander of the other battalion, were In the hot test of the conflict, which ended a quarter of an hour later without the lieutenant colonel's appearance." The following statement is made by one of the soldiers, a prominent professional man, as to the opening of Guiguinto's battle, about 40 miles from Manila: BOYS DENOUNCED FOR SKULKING. "We were ambushed about 6 o'clock p. m., March 28 or 29. As we filed across the railroad bridge the Fili pinos opened fire from the thicket some hundreds of yards ahead. Before reach ing the bridge we saw Hnrnett standing and watching the opposite side, where the insurgents were supposed to be. I saw no more of Barnett after that dur ing the fight, but I heard many of the boys denouncing his disappearance when Hawkins, who was at he front, with bullets whistling around him, needed help in forming the line. The boys didn't have much respect for Bar nett ufter that day, which inspired the song about 'long range, rice dyke Jim my,' although it was not the first en gagement which they accused him of avoiding in the shelter of rice dykes far to the rear. "The boys told me Barnett was lying behind a rice dyke in the rear, with two privates, whom Company I men or others heard him order to look up and see where "the niggers were," or what they were doing. In a previous en gagement. at De La I.oma Church, I think, when in a like comfortable po sition, the boys said that he made a similar request for a reconnaisance in his behalf, and one fellow exclaim ed: 'Let the look up himself.' After the Filipinos retreated we camp ed there that night, but I did not see Barnett until the next day, although the boys were joking over his reap pearance just after the fight." BARNETT A TIN SOLDIER. Private Albert T. Hayes corroborates the story of the inquiries of a person on a tugboat beside the transport Senator, in San Francisco bay, for "Colonel Jim," and of the shouted re sponse from the Tenth's boys: "D you mean Long Range Jimmy, of rice dyke fame? Where would he be but in the rear?" Hayes adds: "Barnett had a reputation for 'cold footedness,' which means cowardice. But for Pop Hawkins I can't guess what would have become of the Tenth. I never knew Barnett to do a brave act. The men could have almost killed him for his tyrannical tin soldier treatment of them at Cavite, when Hawkins had gone sick to the hospital, and the lieu tenant colotiel persisted in tin soldier drilling of the few men that were not tired out or sick, after they had return ed from campaigning and were waiting to embark for home." HIDES BEHIND A MOUND. One of the many battlefield inci dents that had caused this feeling against Barnett is related by a Com pany H private. John E. Clark, of this town. "When we were crossing the railroad bridge at Guiguinto," he says, "the Filipinos opened fire on us from the woods, hundreds of yards ahead. Our fellows on the s line of scouts up there dropped to earth. Major Bierer. of the Tenth, was the first officer I saw at the front, but very soon Colonel Hawkins was there forming the line. | THIS TIME IT WAS A MOUND. "After carrying off a second wound ed man of Company C I returned to the firing line and put on the litter George ' Taylor, of this town, who lived only 1 three days afterward. We took him back to a sort of scooped out, swampy place among the rice dykes, which at that moment was 40 or 50 yards back of the firing line. To the left of me, only about 15 or 20 feet. I saw, well protected behind a mound, Lieutenant Colonel Barnett and one or two other men. "Barnett had his little officer's gun, but was not using it. He was doing nothing but lying low. Hawkins and Bierer were at the front doing every thing. The fight was at its hottest when Barnett lay behind that mound, which was five or six feet in diameter and perhaps four feet high." Men of the Tenth Refuse to Cer tify For Him. Republican State Committee Fails in Its lldji. Effort to Suppress "Cold Foot" Trutbs. Pittsburg, Oct. 24. —"I have nothing to say in reply to the charges the Phil adelphia Record makes against me. They have been made before. They are not worthy of attention" said Lieutenant Colonel James E. Barnett the Republican candidate for state treasurer, at Indiana tonight. In an interview he pretended to take no cognizance of the story. But at Washington it was different. BARNETT ASKS VINDICATION. Under pretense that he did not care about the exposure, he telegraphed Color Bearer Harry Cundall and an other by name of Dr. W. Denny, Com pany H, stationed at Washington, his home, to prepare a petition refuting tho charges of dodging and cowardice made by The Record, and to have it signed by the members of Company H, who ore now at their homes. This was done as directed by Mr. Barnett. HE IS SAD OF HEART. Immediately upon receipt of Colonel Barnett's telegram the few friends ho has in the regiment there began work. The petition was prepared in the office of a well known attorney, four copies being made. They were immediately placed in the hands of barnett's friends, who were started on the hunt for signers. They reported tonight, when word was sent to Barnett. He is sad at heart. Out of the 60 or more members of the company here less than one tenth oi this number have signed the state-1 ments. The pronounced opposition of I the soldier hoys is most surprising. It was the first opportunity they bad of going on record against their su perior officer, and they have been forced to do this by the Republican managers. ONLY FOUR MEN TO UPHOLD HIM. So far as can be ascertained, only four signatures were obtained. The company is almost unanimous in its re fusal to testify on behalf of the Col onel. and the boys allege that a dozen names cannot be secured. One of the soldiers said this even ing lhat he would not say anything detrimental to the Lieutenant Colonel nor do anything that would hurt his candidacy for State Treasurer, but he | could not testify to something which [ he of his own knowledge knew to he untruthful. Others expressed themselves In the same manner. The friends of Barnett I realize now the Berlous blunder which has been made by those who have \ placed these papers in circulation, as It has done Colonel Barnett's cause in finitely more harm than good by forc ing the soldiers to go on record in a matter which they claim would have not been brought into political use. A "COLD-FOOT" RECEPTION. Lieutenant Colonel Barnett was not enthusiastically received at the home of Attorney General John P. Elkin, though that gentleman tried hard to secure him a great demonstration. No members of the Tenth reside here, but the people know Barnett from tho ! boys of the adjoining counties, who were with him in the Philippines. None of the 14 members of his "flag" party would discuss "The Record's" charges, and none would even deny any of the specific allegations made by "The Record" concerning his conduct at the battle of Guiguinto. where he is alleged to have crouched behind a rice dyke and pointed the way to Company I, of Greensburg. to the firing line. Governor Stone, in a speech at Will iam's Grove in 1898. said: "I am a | candidate for governor. It is my firm purpose if elected to disappoint my critics and discharge my duty faith- [ fuly to the people of Pennsylvania." j Btone as governor has not disappoint-1 ed his critics. On the other hand he has proved what they claimed, that he j is owned down to his undershirt by j Quay. He has not discharged his du- J ties faithfully to the people, but on the J other hand he has made the most odi-1 ous. unpopular and lawless goVernor j the state has ever known. He only | exceeds Beaver, the smallest intellect- j ually of our governors in one thing— the loyalty of a dog to his master. Every friend of liberty rejoices in the defeat that imperialism lias been given by the Boers in South Alrica. BOOiIRANGBARNEIT Those Who Know Him Best Like Him Least. NOT WANTED NEAR HOME. Republican County Chairmen in His Sec tion of the State Ask That He Be Kept Away. If James E. Barnett, called "Long Distance Jimmy," owing to the dis tance that he put betweon himself and danger, has nothing better than his military record to commend him as a candidate for state treasurer, he is In a sorry plight. His military exploits are of the kind in which "distance lends enchantment to the view." So bad is his standing with the boys of the Tenth regiment that he has been kept parading mostly over the east ern part of the state, for Chairman Reeder has been notified that Barnett's presence in counties where the mem bers of his regiment live would intensi fy the strong feeling that they havo against him. Instead of the gallant and dashing colonel that he has been depicted by men who know nothing about him, dozens of his men accuse him of cow ardice, and declare that he . was moro than once found seeking safety in the rear when he was needed at the front. Desperate efforts have been made to secure the endorsement of the soldiers of his regiment, but they have ended in failure, because a majority of the boys allege that he was a dodger in time of danger, that he treated Colonel Hawkins shamefully. ' AS ne was nominated on account 01 being a military man, neither he nor his managers can reasonably object to having the public know just what sort of military record he has. Quay evi dently knew enough of Barnett's weak ness not to want him nominated, but he was overruled by his lieutenants, who now see that the "Old Man's" po litical judgment was better than that of those who forced him on the ticket. The Philadelphia Record and The North American are showing up the machine candidate in so unfavorable a light that it was rumored a few days ago that he, like Adams, would be with drawn from the ticket, and if the cam-1 paign were to last another month, in stead of a week, it is altogether likely that Barnett would be withdrawn. AFRAID OF HIS PRESENCE. Republican State Chairman Reeder was told by nine of the ten county chairmen in conference with him last week that their campaign affairs were In bad shape. Some of those chairmen ; are authority for this disclosure, and they add that Reeder was warned by those from counties in which State Treasurer Candidate Barnett la beet known, and from which the Tenth reg-. iment had been recruited, not to let him do any campaigning there, as he would only make the ticket's prospects worse. Barnett's stumping has been con fined to the eastern part of the state. Southwestern county chairmen think he had better stay away from their people for the grave reasons which are on nearly everybody's tongue in Greensburg, Washington, Waynesburg. Monongahela City. ITniontown, Mt. Pleasan't and other towns. "We don't want Barnett on the stump in our county," said Washington county's chairman. Underwood, to Reeder. "He would seriously damage the party's cause." The Westmoreland county chairman told Reeder that the "Tenth regiment boys generally" in Greensburg and vi cinity privately expressed bitter oppo sition to Barnett. Many of them ac cused him of an overfondness for rice dyke protection, far in the rear of his fellow members of the Tenth, during engagements with the Filipinos. They argued that If he had been like Colonel Hawkins, conspicuous for bravery and for leading the boys whenever they most needed leadership, they might complain less of "the great bunco game" that was now being played on the people by the Republican military spellbinders. "KEEP BARNETT AWAY FROM US." The Westmoreland chairman men tioned to Reeder that the big judge ship fight in his county intensified the campaign feeling, and local Republican disaster might result from bringing Barnett there. County Chairman Crow, of Fayette, said to the head ol the state organization: "Nearly every pot where you find a Tenth regiment boy you find trouble for Barnett. Many of them are not only talking among their neighbors against him, but are working against his election." Fay ette, like Armstrong and Westmore land, has a hot judgeship contest, and Chairman Crow, like his Westmore land neighbor, thought the local scale.? might turn in favor of the Republicans if the Barnett red rag should not be shaken at the bull. ' A canvass of the towns mentioned, as veil as of other places, proves that the unpopularity of Barnett among the Tenth regiment soldiers cannot be suc cessfully denied by the Quay mana gers. A host of reputable witnesses professional and business men, would arise against them if necessary. It in supposed that about two-third 3 of the regiment are Republicans and it is as serted by many of these in the differ ent counties referred to that a large majority of the Republican soldiers will vote against Barnett. Philadelphia Record correspondent?: have interviewed a large number of these anti-Barnett Republican mem bers of the Tenth, and have obtained permission to use some of the names in connection with their stories covering different sorts of accusations against their lieutenant colonel. It is alleged that most of the soldiers in the Bar nett spellbinding hippodrome were never in a position to testify from per snnnl knowledge what Barnett. did. or failed to do, at the firing line. Cer tain spellbinders who could so testify, and were among Barnett's opponents, have changed under pressure. Future preferment under Quay machine rule figures in some stories, anu otner sol diers are mentioned to whom the offer of "$5 a day and expenses" for going on the stump was made in vain.
