Walter H. Barney Makes Re-
ply to Edwards Statements.
Readers Were Procured From Six or
Seven Different Publishing Houses.
Method Of Attack Condemned.

The latest attack made by Mr.. Stephen
o. Edwards upon the school committee
as body, and upon President Barney in
particular, has caused great deal OF
comment. and much or 1t is not fiattering
TO Mr.. Edwards not because of what he
says, but because Of the method that he
has adopted 10 carry on his controversy.
1t is argued by many gentlemen prom
inent in professional and business life,
that Mr.. Edwards was. and for few
days longer still is. n member of the
school committee, and. as such. had a
perfect right to discuss in that body
any subject germane TO the public schools
and their management.
This privilege. however. he has failed
TO exercise, and whatever charges he has
made against the school committee or
any part OF it, have been made through
the columns of the newspapers, and nDt
one word OF criticism has MIR. Edwards
uttered In the sopen meetings OF the
school committee, ana even as tate az
last night he said not word about text
books.
MEMBERS WERE SURPRISED.
IL was expected by several members

ing last evening Mr.. Edwards would In
lroduce some sort of resolution call
ing for the appointment OF special COM
mittee TO investigate the charges he had
already made, and there was a great deal
Of surprise expressed when the meeting
adjourned Without Mr.. Edwards having
said a word IN relation TO the matter
When, however. the second attack made
by Mr.. Edwards was seen In the paper
this morning. this surprise turned to in
dignation. This feeling was caused be-
cause Mr.. Edwards, who had never raised
his voice In objection TO the acts
OF the school committee dur
ing his term of office, had
declined 10 bring any charges that he
might have 10 make before the commit
tee. but preferred to use The newspa-
pers
one OF the leading members Of the
school committee said this morning: II
am astonished that MIR. Edwards should
resort TO such a peculiar method. II
would almost tempt one to believe that
he has very little confidence in the
strength OF b.s charges, else he would
not object to BRING them up for discus
sion"
