Champ Clarks Letter [Special Washington Letter.] IT is now whispered about that Pres ident Roosevelt has relinquished his determination to bounce Gen eral Nelson A. Miles by placing him on the retired list. Where fore? Because some observant per sonage connected with the administra tion lias bad his ear to the ground and has heard the roar of disapproval from ail over the country—that’s why. At the Grant banquet in New York a dis tinguished officer of both the civil and Spanish wars told me that the enemies of Miles were making spectacular asses of themselves; not that he loves Milos, lor evidently he docs not, but because he knows public sentiment. He fur ther added that if the president could not get along with General Miles, which lie most probably could not. the sensible thing was to have a free and frank talk with him, explaining to him that he was tired of the bickerings In military circles and proposed to end them by placing the general not on the retired list, which would be construed by all the Miles crowd as an insult, tint upon waiting orders, to which nobody could reasonably object. This is a vet eran soldier’s opinion. It ought to be worth something and I give it for what it is worth. So far Miles ha' been helped by the rumpus. Wisdom. And so Captain Clark declines to no cept the position as envoy extraoi dinary to attend the coronation of Ed ward VII. and to do the kotowing be fore his royal and imperial majesty! A level lieml has Captain Clark. Ilia standing, already extremely high in the estimation of Ids country and ol the world, will be Increased by his declination. Now, if General Wilson and Hon. Whiteiaw Reid would also decline, everything would be lovely and the goose would honk high. But will they do so? General Wilson might, for ids whole distinguished career shows that lie does not care a rap for the trappings and ceremonials of roy alty. If he goes to Loudon at all, it will be to have a lark and to recreate himself, but with lion. Whiteiaw Reid it is somewhat different. He regards the performance as a great function—a serious business—and perhaps would feel affronted were the president to undo the whole scheme, which has been unfortunate and unpopular from the beginning. Of course the editorial postmasters have indorsed the thing us a piece of wise statesmanship. So they would enthusiastically indorse Colonel Roosevelt if he tried to make himself emperor; but, barring these editorial postmasters and other pap suckers, this extraordinary embassy to the coronutlou has not been enthusias tically indorsed anywhere. In Quaysylvania. In the language of the late Professor Squeers of Dotheboys Hall, “Here is richness!” And it is from the Philadel phia Inquirer, which until quite recent ly has been a thick and thin Quay or gan. It shows the utter demoraliza tion and rottenness of Republicanism In Pennsylvania. The Inquirer is mad through and through. It says; The question before the Republican par ty of Pennsylvania today Is this: Are two Pittsburg millionaires going to be allowed to dictate to Senator Quay and through him to dominate and practi cally to own Pennsylvania? Ie boodle to be permitted to buy this slate, for the Pittsburg millionaire com bine spells boodle and nothing else. This millionaire boodle combine Is op posed to Elkin for governor. Elkin la honest. He is a candidate of the people. The Pittsburg millionaire combine does not understand an honest candidate. It would have some person whom It could control, and yet it is so afraid of the peo ple that It does not dare to name Us rep resentative. it prefers to wait until the laat moment and then to foist upon the Republican party some candidate, at pres ent unknown, who could be relied upon to carry out the millionaire combine’s or ders. If Pennsylvania wishes such a candi date, all that It has to do Is to go to the primaries yet to bo held in the country districts and vote for boodle. On the other hand, if It wishes a gov ernor of the people, a governor who Is not In touch with the millionaire combine of Pittsburg, but who has the best Interesls of the state at heart, then let Its sturdy Republican citizens In every county stand by John P. Elkin. Mr. Elkin appeals to the people, not to “boss" dictation, and his nomination would save Pennsylvania to the Repub lican party. Since the pot called the kettle black \ there has been nothing so excruciating-; ly funny us to hear the Philadelphia Fnqulrer preach political morality and ‘ to hear it yell, “Boodle and boss!” It I has for years supported the Philadel- • phia boodlers, the worst gang outside 1 the penitentiary, and has whooped It up for Senator Matthew Stanley Quay, who deems "boss” an honorable title. Muzzled. The best thing President Roosevelt has done since he got into the White House was the muzzling of General Funston of Kansas, whose tongue ap peared to be tied in the middle and loose at both ends. Funston’s abuse of the venerable and cherubic senior sen ator from Massachusetts, George Fris bie Hoar, seems to have been the straw which broke the camel’s back. Sena tor Hoar is a scholarly man; so is the president. He is trying to surround his administration with a literary at mosphere by having poets, orators and authors in high places, and he does not propose that Funston shall Jump eu Fanny Things Happen In Quaysylvania-Mr. Sibley’s Protest Against General Smith's “Pacific” Methods. Personal Mention - - - any of the literati. So he jumped oti Funston, and he Jumped good and hard. It Is quite safe to predict that the next ticket will not be "Teddy and Freddie,” whatever else it may happen to be. Sibley Flays Smith. When the Hon. Joseph Crocker Sib ley left the Democrats and went over to the Republicans, be took bis human ity with him. The truth is that, while Sibley Is somewhat erratic in politics, a kinder hearted or more generous man never lived. Hitherto he has gone the whole hog on expansion in the orient, but recent atrocities committed by vir tue of General Smith’s order have dis gusted Sibley and outraged his Ideas of right. The other day in the house he hopped on to General Smith in the following vigorous fashion: Therefore when I nm compelled to read utterances contained In military orders that make the blood of man run cold, when 1 have heard the statements mads that we were cruel In the conduct of that war, I have thought perhaps (he partisan was speaking, but when I have read, as 1 have within the past forty-eight hours, that a general wearing the uniform of the army of the United States, one who stands under the shadow of our (lag, is sues orders, not to conciliate n province, but to leave It a howling wilderness ami to kill all above ten years of ape, then it seems to me that humanity must have marched backward for eighteen centuries and tiiat Herod again appears. I have reart of Timour, the Tartar; I have read of Atttla, i have read of the Saracen scourge, but I thank God that since the tragic scene on Calvary It has taken eighteen centuries to produce a Smith. I have read of the “water cure." X believe that was exaggerated. Can any man whose blood bounds in bis pulses, any man who has read his Rible or who has been reared at the knee of a Chris tian woman, justify the perpetration of such cruelties upon another man who wears the guise and the image of his Creator? And yet we hear this man at tempting to justify acts by which men are pumped so full of water ac nearly to drown them and then brought hack to life by thumping them over the stomach with the butts of muskets. That Is not civ ilization; that is not Christianizing the world. I am thankful that these are sporadic cas, s. All Should Join In Protest. They will never pacify any race of hu man beings on this earth by !iia drown ing them and then bringing them to life With the butt of a musket, anil against that, as a member upon this side of the chamber, against that us a man who be longs, I hope, not alone to the Republican ranks, but to the whole brotherhood of man the wide world round, i want the members of this house on this side of the chamber and that to voice their protest. A friend of mine said a few minutes ago, “Oh, you had hotter wait and hear his defense!" I hope the president of tha United States will have the courage, upon what the man admits, to discharge him dishonorably from the service that he has disgraced. He admits that he issued the order to leave the province a howling waste and a wilderness and to kill all above ten years of age, the innocent with the guilty. That man never ought to be permitted to stay In the service of the United States until the sun goes down. He is a disgrace not alone to the party, but to every man who ever wore the uniform of the United States, and he Is a blot and a disgrace to our present civilization. Walt anil hear what his justification may be! That man does notlti's who can justify such orders. There Is no Justification. I care not how adroitly his lawyers may frame their plea or how subtle be their reasoning. The fact admitted by his own mouth that he Issued such orders la sufficient for the hope that there are the courage and the patriotism and the humanity and the Christianity at the other end of the ave nue that will not let him wear the' fed eral uniform twenty-four hours hence. Certainly that was straight from thu shoulder and does great credit to both the head and the heart of Joseph ('. Sibley. No doubt there are thousands of other decent Republicans who are thinking what Sibley hail the courage and manliness to say. Of course the organ grinders will jump him, hut ho can stand it. He voiced the idea of all decent people of all parties. Since the delivery of his speech he has been flooded with commendatory letters from all parts of the country. Right thinking Americans do not propose that we shall lie known throughout the world as bloody butchers, to which low and unenviable position sticit "soldiers” —God save the mark!—as General Smith would reduce us. What a pity, what a calamity, what a burning shame that we ever undertook to con quer and hold the Philippines! They will lie a millstone about our necks on til we get rid of them. If we keep on in the insane course upon which we have entered, this Philippine business will bankrupt us financially and, what Is worse, ruin our good name, which King Solomon declared is more to be desired than great riches. That Mr. Sibley does not stand nlone among Republicans in bis present atti tude of antagonism to this Herodlike business in the Philippines is demon strated by the fact that the Philadel phia North American, a stanch Repub lican paper, owned and conducted by John Wanamaker’s son, denounces and cartoons General Wilson as anothet. General Weyler, which is perhaps the severest denunciation that could he ap plied to any soldier. Weyler lias been a name at which the world held its nose, even If It did not grow pale, ever since his brutalities in Cuba. Champ Clark.
