A SUIT entered by the Countess of
Buena Vista against Gen. Brooke gives a
hint of the enormities from which we de-
livered the Cubans, Porto Ricans and Fill
ipinos. 1t appears that, away back in
1104, the King of Spain, wanting to do
something for some courtier who had the
common longing to live by the sweat Of
other peoples brows, gave him the right
tn collect certain tax on all the meat
slaughtered for the City of Habana. For
nearly 200 years his descendants have en-
joyed this income, for which, of course,
they did not make the slightest return.
Gen. Brooke abolished the tax, and the
Countess has sued him for the income.
OF course, the General is not lying awake
nights worrying over it. Think of how
many other similar hoary iniquities in the
Spanish possessions were rudely swept
away by the American occupation.

GEN. SMITH takes his punishment for
doing his duty in a manful, sOldier-like
way. He has nothing to say, except re,
gret that the President has chosen to re-
tire. him at time when he felt that he
was still full of usefulness to his country.
The American people understand that he
has been made 'scapegoat, and most un-
necessarily. He did his work well. effi-
ciently and without the slightest unDeces-
sary cruelty. He was sacrificed to ap-
pease the clamors of lot of yellows and
copperheads who were not worth regard
and who have always had to be disregard
ed whenever anything of great import
ance was done for the country.

CAPT. A. II. REED, of Glencoe, Minn.,
is out in an earnest campaign for Con
gress, for the seat which has been held
for five Congresses by Representative Joel

He should have been there years ago, and
would have been but for the Vaccinations
of politicians. He is a splendid type Of
the volunteers, who after finishing their
job of suppressing the rebellion, turned
their interest and attention to Empire
building, and were as successful in the
latter work as the first. He was born in

of Minnesota and helped lay the founda-

PERSONAL.

The death of Gen. William n. L..
Barnes, of San Francisco, Cal, removes
man who for nearly 40 years had played
Il large part in the legal, professional and
political circles, military ranks and social
life of the Pacific Coast. Col. Barnes
was born in February, 1885, at West
Point, n. Y, where his father, an officer
of the Army, was an Instructor. He
graduated with high honors from Yale,
and studied law, and was admitted to the
bar in New York. He at once enlisted
in 1861 III the 7th n. Y, and was pro-
NOTED to Sergeant, after which he en-
tered the 10th N. Y, and later was made
Captain and Aid, serving on the staff of
Gen. Eitz John Porter, and remaining in
service until the close of the war. I'M
paired health took him to California,
where he at once met with high profess
sional success and became a partner of
Senator Casserly, and when the latter was
elected to the Senate all his business went
to Gen Barnes. He became one of the
foremost lawyers on the Coast. He took
great interest in the National Guard and
rose to be Major-General of the Califor
MIA National Guard. He was n jealous
Grand Army mau, and Commander of
the Department of California and Nevada
in 1891. In 1876 he was appointed the
counsel for the Swedish Government in
case involving the mistreatment of some
Swedish sailors, and achieved much repu-
tation by his management. The King Of
Sweden created him Knight of the Or
der of st. Olaf and presented him with a
superb decoration studded with emeralds,
pearls and diamonds. Gen. Barnes was
always a hard worker for the Republican
party, and one of the most effective
speakers on the Pacific Coast. He never
would accept any office, but q very strong
effort was made to elect him United
States Senator in 1899 to succeed Stephen
NJ. White. As an orator and after-din-
ner speaker Gen. Barnes had few equals,
and was Il leading man in the club life Of
San Francisco.
