Would Not Oppose Colonel.
New York.-William Barnes, former.
1y chairman OF the Republican state
committee, in a statement issued here
attacked former President Roosevelt
and denied a published report that he
would not oppose the nomination by
the Republican party of Mr.. Roosevelt
for the presidency.
"This year." Barnes asserted, "the
periodical candidacy of Mr.. Roosevelt
for president of the United States is
based upon Americanism, and such
sporadic support al he is receiving
comes from his declaration in behalf
of proper national defense.
"Mr. Roosevelt is not responsible for
any natural phenomenon. nor has he
a patent on the obvious. That this
country should be properly defended,
as it is not defended now, is not open
to debate"
