WEAK RULERS
Have Seldom Retarded the Progress
of a Nation.

1t is curious fact that several con-
spicuous examples of nations thriving
under weak rulers are to be found IN
history.
TO begin with. the Roman Empire
undoubtedly reached its highest level
of commercial and military prosperity
during the first 400 years or so or the
Christian Era, and yet the majority or
its rulers during this period displayed
very little administrative ability, ana
many of them were not only weak Out
absolutely vicious. In this case, now
ever. it may be taken thai the acculnu-
lated energy which had been growing
up for centuries found its last express
sion during the rule of the later EN-
perors. and that Rome developed rather
In sDite of them than because OF them.

BARNETT'S DECLARATION.
The Letter Refusing the Offer of the
Colonelcy Heoeived by Gov
ernor stone.

HARRISBURG, Aug. 10. - Governor
Stone received letter from Lieutenant
Colonel James Il. Barnett declining to
accept commission as colonel of the
Tenth Pennsylvania regiment. Colonel
Barnett requests that no appointment be
made and that the colonelcy be allowed
to stand vacant in honor of Colonel
Hawkins memory. The governor has
no desire to do anything contrary to
the wishes of the officers and men, and
at their suggestion he will make no ap.
pointment. When the regiment reached
San Francisco on its return from the
Philippines for the muster out Gov
ernor Stone telegraphed Colonel Bar
nett offering TO appoint him Colonel
Hawkins successor.
Barnett says in reply that he would
be glad to hold commission as colonel
of the regiment and did have that am
bition, "but under the circumstances, !"
he adds, lit seems to me, those officers
who would benefit by my promotion,
and to all the officers and men in this
command, that the least we can do is to
allow the name of Alexander l.. Haw-
kns to be associated with the regiment
during its entire time Of United States
service, the crowning period of its
achievements, as its sole and only
colonel"
