danger is that reactionary Republican
leaders will presume too far, and force
an opposite reaction which will lead
the country again to put them out of
control of the government
The political prestige of Mr. Barnes
is not wholly self-acquired any more
than is that of Senator Wadsworth,
his ally, who comes of long line of
men of military and political renown
in western New York. The maternal
grandfather of Mr. Barnes was Thur
low Weed, who before him swayed the
destinies of his part in New York for
decades. Weed, who was young vol
unteer in the War of 1912, later be-
came a journalist in western New
York, but in 1880 he settled in Albany
and established the Albany Evening
Journal, which is now owned by his
grandson, Mr.. Barnes. The Journal
was an anti-Jackson whip paper and
when the Republican party was form
ed Mr.. Weed made it an ardent cham
pion of anti-slavery doctrines and of
Republicanism. Mr.. Weed also be-
came part proprietor and one Of the
editors of the New York Times and
subsequently of the Commercial Adj
vertiser, now the New York Globe.
Weeds influence was felt in every
nomination of the wings
from 1886 to 1852, and every Republi-
can nomination from 1856 to 1876, |
having been an ardent supporter of
General Grant.
With all this prestige behind him
and with all his own native ability and |
political generalship, it is not strange
that William Barnes should take to
politics as naturally as duck to
water, or that he should feel warrant
ID at this time under all the political
circumstances in aspiring to the Unit
d States Senate.-Free Press.

Commissioner J. T. Stearns Wednes-

BARNES AS SENATOR AND
PARTY CROSS CURRENTS

United States Senator James A
O'Gorman Of New York, who recently
became something more than nam,
for the Green Mountain State by
championing the cause of candidates
for federal Office commended by the
Vermont State Democratic committee
but rejected by the Wilson administra-
ton, says the Empire State may re-
pudiate the Democratic party, if the
Wilson administration follows its
present tendencies.
The Empire State has already re-
pudiated both Wilson and 0'Gorman
and is simply awaiting an opportunity
to relegate to private life the acct
dental statesman who in 1911 succeed
ed to the seat in the United States
Senate so long filled by Chauncey NJ
Depew, Senator O'Gormans term will
expire on March 3, 1917, and his sue
cessor will be elected in November
Of next year.
Nothing more significant of the po-
litical revolution which has recently
occurred in New York could be pictur-
cd than the appearance of former
State Chairman William Barnes of AL
bany as a candidate for the United
States Senate TO succeed Senator o.
German. Two years ago such prop
osition would have been hailed with
derision by all the millions of follow
ers Of Theodore Roosevelt, and no
small part of the liberal Republican
element would have greeted such a
candidacy with uplifted eyebrows.
Today Mr.. Barnes is recognized as
the most formidable aspirant for the
position. His candidacy takes its
place along side the candidacy of Gov
ernor Whitman for the presidency of
the United States. The two candida |
cies are at present in an apparent |
state Of armed neutrality. Whether /
the two political forces are to continue |
parallel. or to be merged gradually, or
to become openly and distinctly antag-
onistic win largely depend upon this
years developments at Albany,
Mr.. Barnes belongs absolutely and
to the old school of Re-
publicanism. Governor Whitman is
the latest exponent Of what has come
10 be known as Hughes Republicanism.
The extent of the reaction which has
taken place in sentiment is indicated
by the fact that Mr.. Barnes could SER
iously aspire to the United States sem
atorship at the hands Of the Republi-
ian party. A year ago even he him
self might have seriously questioned
the expediency of the step. The fact
hat he has become candidate is
evidence that he feels sure Of himself
