FREELAND, PA., NOVEMBER 2,1899.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, October 31, 1899.
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."

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!"

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.

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.

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.
