BARNEYS FAREWELL
Dallas Texas January IS IK
Hon Bamett Clbbs haa ceased fllrtlnt
with the populists
He has gone ovtr bas and baggage to
the enemy <
Ho has deserted the party which made
htm State senator and lieutenant gov-
ernor and b the coming campaign will
act with tho populists and all other po-
litical belles which can be raked and
scraped together in opposition to tho reg-
ularly organised democracy of Texas
Tha brunette statesman In an Interview
with a representative of The Post burned
the bridges behind him deliberately and
with malico aforethought In future he
will bond all his energies towards encom-
passing the defeat of the regular democ-
racy
Tbe Post representative called at the
palatial suburban home of the cxlleu
tenant governor Sunday afternoon Me
was not at homo at the time An Inmate
of the household Informed tbe scribe that
Mr Glbts had been out on his ranch tor
several days attending to his cattle and
early spring plowing and that he would
probably return tn tha evening between
7 and S oclock
At the hour designated the representa-
tive of The Post retraced his atcps to ths
Olbbs home and the doorbelt call was
answered by the head of tbe house him-
self His greeting was brecxy charac-
teristic cf Barney and the caller was
ushered Into the library of tho mansion
Ive been out at the ranch for several
davs he began and I find a stack of
newspapers with comments marked and
a bushel of letters from political as well
as personal friends from all sections of
the State I notlo that The Post pub-
lished my letter Well Im glad of It as
tbo people of tho State will be given the
benefit of lu wide circulation and will
know my position to a T
Governor your > oUtlcal views have
boon given to tho public And now tho
people everywhere arc asking What Is
Barney up to What does ho want
I want to crush the Infamous fee sys-
tem Tho tax caters are devouring tho
producers
That Is not tho question at Issue Tho
Post wonts a candid and distinct declara-
tion from your lips Aro you seeking a
nomination for governor at tho hands of
tho populists tne repubUcans aral other
disaffected elements In opposition to the
democrats of Texas
Tho lndeiendent democrats republi-
cans and popullts of Texas aro deter-
mined to overthrow tho present State ad-
ministration They bavo grown tired of
tho fee grabbers the railroad commission

goverrors First It was Hogg Thm
Hogg annotated Culberson and inw Cul

other fellow for tbo succession after he

Well I see Culberoon Invites mo to

prlzo fight farce an Issue Noa that Is
silly There ia a statute ugalust prize
flgntlng and If there were no statute a
trivial affair of tliat M > rt as an Issue
would bo ridiculous
Tho mission of The Post is to ascer-
tain If you are a candidate for guvcrnor
I am not a candidate for that offlci
I am in no senso a candidate and havo
never had the slightest Intention of be-
coming a candidate for tbo position Cul
berson will poll 30 > less votes In 1
than ho received In 1S04 and the pvoplc
aro going lo defeat him
Will you accept tho nomination If a
tender of the honor Is mado by the pupu
iht and other political bodies
No I would not accept a nomination
for governor Tho peoplo who want a
cliunge will get together act In harmony
and name thn man who will bo elected at
the proper time
Ate you an aspirant for a congressional
nominalon Aro you going to lead the
ciiprtltlori to tho democratic rtorilnio lor
eel gicss In the Sixth district
Well really I would not caro to go to
Washington were It not for the fuct that
1 am Interested In seeming a largo appio

You wui accept a congressional nomlna
Hon tr
Yes I wouldnt decline an opportunlt
to assist my peoplo In securing navigation
of tho Trinity One of the great issues In
this district is lmprovcmont ot the river
and opeing up the samo to navigation
Who will be tho nominee of tho popu-
lists the republicans and the Independent
demorrats of whom you speak tor the ot
lite of governor
In my opinion Jerome C Koarby He
Is the logical candidate and nil thoso who
aro sick and tired ot tho annolntol can
easily unltu upon Colonel Kenrbv All

Glbbs had a strong following in the
ranks of the Knights of Labor and

A deadlock followed lasting for thrco
