deputies today put itself on record by

BARNES GIVES REASONS.
Tells Why He Resigns From the State
Central Committee.

Albany, Oct 12.-Contending that his
party loyalty had been questioned
through the failure of Ezra P. Prentice,
the new chairman of the Republican
state committee, to reappoint him a
member of the executive committee OF
the state committee, William Barnes,
Jr., of Albany, has rendered his resig-
nation as state committeeman from
the Twenty-third congressional dis
trict comprising Albany and Schenectady
counties.
Mr. Barnes led the fight against the
selection of Col. Roosevelt as temper
airy chairman of the recent Republican
state convention at Saratoga. In his
letter Mr.. Barnes says:
In reading the list of the members
of the executive committee of the state
committee announced by you this
morning, [ find that my name is not
among the number.
THE mere fact of membership in the
executive committee is entirely unin-
portant but after having served as a
member of that committee ever since
I was first elected to the state COM
mittee in 1892, the omission involves
the inevitable conclusion that your ac-
ton was caused either by your belief
that my services would not be useful.
or that 1 was faithless to the Republi-
can ticket. Under neither supposition
can rest.
Having been a member of the exec
utive committee for Is years if my SER
vices are no longer useful or my party
loyalty is questioned by you as the
head of the organization then l am
no longer qualified to serve under you
a S a member of the state committee it
self.
1T has been my habit not to carry
lightly the responsibility and burdens
of the conmitteemanship which I have
held. l can not therefore, maintain the
nrODeT sense of n0IiticaI ethics and
serve upon a committee the chairman of
which holds the attitude toward my
political activity which you have dis
closed.
THE state convention is the supreme
authority of the party and 1 shall vote
for Mr.. Stimson and the rest of the
Republican ticket and individually
work for its election -

''Overshadowing all these questions
and of most vital importance to the
people is the menace offered to the
various institutions of the country by
the new nationalism fathered and ad-
vocated by a new apostle of discord
and dissension.
I'VE have already had to our cost ample
proof of his ability to disturb business

if with all that he is to be permitted to
succeed in his campaign to weaken, or

central government the powers reserved
to the states to substitute the will of the
president for the will of the people as ex-
pressed througlp all the regularly chosen
officers of the federal government and to
set arbitrary bounds to what any man by
ability and enterprise may legitimately
secure. then all the sacrifices made by the
founders of the republic all the blood shed
for its reservation, will have been in vain

NO MORE CAUCUSES.
Arizona Delegates VIII Fight 1t Out in
the Convention.

Phoenix, Oct. 12.-The Democrat tic
majority controlling the constitutional
convention probably will hold no more
caucuses but will fight out on the floor
OF the convention all of the issues in
VOWED in drafting the Arizona consti-
tuition.
The principles of the initiative,
referendum and recall, which are the
most important questions to come be-
fore the constitution making body, are
now assured of some Republican sup
port among the delegates. Two of the
minority members have announced
their intention of supporting these
provisions of direct legislation. The
Democratic majority is already COM
mitted to them, having won in the re-
cent election on that issue.
The only differences which will arise
relate to details of the proposed laws.

Cameron Dam, the Home of John
Dietz and His Family.

Winter, Wis, Oct. 12.-With the
surrender of John Dietz after a fierce
fight, in which one deputy was killed,
several wounded and hundreds of
shots exchanged by the deputies and
the Dietz family, the most spectacular
battle of recent years becomes a mat
ter of history.
For over a week the frontier woods
man barricaded himself with those
members of his family who were still
with him in their log cabin at Cam
eron Dam.
So much interest was attracted to
his case that the governor of Wiscon-
sin attempted to bring about con-
Citation between Dietz and the depu-
ties, but without result, Dietz swear
ing he would DEFEND his home against
every odds and die in his tracks fight
ing. Over 100 sharpshooters of from
tiersmen were deputized and through
a concerted action closed in upon the
Dietz home. Several skirmishes took
place. during which several of the
deputies were, wounded and one dep
uty, Oscar Harp, was killed John
