GLEASON. \ BARNES
/ MAN, GETS $4,000 JOB

AfrANY. Nov 30.--Rcpotts have been
Persistent in. political circles in the last
few days OF break between Governor
elect Whitman and William Barnes. Fol-
lowing closely Mr. Whitman's return to
New York city from his Thanksgiving
vacation at Virginia Hot Springs Mr.
Barnes tonight has an editorial in his
Albany ErcniHg JorHudi. entitled Times
Have Changed declaring that the Gov
ernor-eect is not second Charles t.
Hughes. In this editorial, which is looked
upon as plea for peace between Mr..
Whitman and the Republican state or
gsnization, Mr.. Barnes says:
The ignorance of the usual newspaper
reporter professional reformer and every
day politician most newspaper editors and
all smart persons is well known TO the
isTSe and intelligent citizenship OF any
community.
This retrocessional. reactionary, pro-
fess!onal progressive conglomerdtion of
collected human error is now engaging
itself IN another one of its absurdities
based upon antecodent probability with
respect TO the incoming administration OF
the state of New York.
"Whtman will be like Hughes OF
course Mr.. Whitman is no more like MI
Hughes than Mr. Hughes was like MI
oIell or Mr. Roosevelt
The Old Guard will fight or will
gut In the first place. there is no Old
Guard There is IA Republican party. and
there are active men In each county IN
The state. as there Were In 1906, and as
there were in 1866. More have died and
retired since 1866 than nave since 1906,
but there will always be such, as long as
Ne. "a Do,
and somebody will always be influential in
its councils. Some may be In some in
stances more SO than others
The conditions which existed in tho
year 1906 do not obtain in the year
1919 in any particular, They resemble
eaeh other in nP respect. either in re-
la;ion TO the Republican Organization OF
tie state of New York or i'll regard
10 the condition of public opinion or in
regard to the necessities OF the future
No intelligent American citizen at he
present time is concerned with the macn-
nations OF the smaller politician or the
big politician, the political 'uplif,er or
the cheap hanger on.
Governor Whitman has before
hm very simple problem. His duty
ls 20 administer the affairs Of this stat,
which have been villainously mismtnaged
The Republican Legislature of both
branches, of course. stands ready 20
cooperate with Gov. Whitman in this re-
gard.
There is no possible conception OF a
political situation which would make this
impossible. There is no party organiza-
ton OF the Republican party as there was
IN 1906 with which the new Governor
has to contend or with which he would
naturally feel that he should affiliate.
The eyes OF the people OF the North,
a. he United States are set on WASH
irctor. They intend to remove the baue-
iul influences that are operating there
They intend to see that the United States
is placed again on AN intelligent sane
basis"
